I'd recommend Starbucks for a coffee.

The first ever branch of Starbucks opened opposite Pike Place Market. It's still there. Looks like a small cosy independent coffee shop, but it isn't.


Not joking, but thousands of visitors a day queue up outside just to order something & claim they've been there.

Personally, I always thought it was time wasted when you could have been inside a pub...but there you go.

Snoqualmie Falls would probably be your best bet. It's an hours drive from Seattle. It's a destination spot for Twin Peaks obsessive too. Amazing waterfall. You can walk all the way down to the bottom of the fall, then kill yourself going back up again.

I did it in peak Summer. It should be much easier this time of the year - also a damn sight less busy too.

Could I do it in an afternoon? It's just a flying visit for the deadskins and I have some friends in that part of the country.

Capitol Hill best for partying?

Yep. You shouldn't have any issues. Make sure the weather is okay before you head there, because I've driven through that Snoqialmie area when it's been snowing viciously & visibility is BAAAAAAD.

Yeah, Capitol Hill was always a bit too out of the way for me (I lived in West Seattle).
I only really ventured up there for gigs.
Preferred the abundant number of dive bars of Belltown & it's close proximity of centre city.
Some nice pubs in Ballard & Georgetown, but again - a bit out of the way.

Brace yourself for an expensive visit!

I spend half the working week in New York so I am sure I can cope with Seattle pricing.

Thanks for info BTW

No problem.

Also, don't be shocked with the huge homelessness problem you will encounter.
It's pretty bad. That and the opioide addiction is very high in Seattle.
