Seattle

I'm headed to Seattle soon and I'm looking for some travel advice as I've never been to the Pacific Northwest.. I'm not much on touristy sorts of things so not really interested in the Space Needle. I prefer to hang out where the locals do. Me and the Mrs. are foodies, like a good craft beer and love live music. Whatcha got?

Just make sure your semen is kept in a cooler between 55 and 63 degrees at all times and try to stir it twice daily.

Pike place brewery has a good selection of beers. Von's gastropub on first has a great booze selection. Best craft cocktail bar is Cannon, which is a bit east of downtown. Any of Tom Douglas' restaurants are really good. I tend to Serious Pie or Lola. Walrus and Carpenter in Ballard is a great seafood restaurant. Elliott's on the waterfront has a great oyster selection and is near the aquarium, which is well worth it.

Fine dining? I'd try Crush or Lark. I've really enjoyed those.

If you're there for a few days, see if you can go about an hour north of the city to Whidbey Island. Stay at The Inn at Langley. Reminds me a bit of wine country. Quiet and off the beaten track with good food.

If I think of more, I'll post again, but that's what comes to mind. Seattle is a great eating town. If you like sushi, there are lots of places. I like Japonessa downtown.

It's a horrible city. Congested, expensive, ****ing homeless people everywhere, never stops raining. Go somewhere else.

I didn't want to be the first person to say it, but yeah, Seattle is pretty nasty. I'd add filthy and blighted to the mix, and that was in the heart of the downtown area. And as far as the famous fish market goes, to me it just smelled like dead fish (although admittedly it would probably be better early in the day, as opposed to just before closing).

Plus, the one true positive highlight of our brief stay was a wonderful restaurant called the Icon Grill, which had excellent service, was beautifully decorated and offered perhaps the most delicious pasta dish I've ever eaten in my life. It closed earlier in the year because the building it was in has been condemned.

I like Chicago much more than Seattle, and I hate Chicago.

There was some lovely scenery off in the distance, though.

We also visited Victoria, British Columbia, which sort of reminded me of Seattle, except it was clean and pretty, and we weren't constantly surrounded by rude, smelly bums and hipsters.

Yeah, if you get out of the city there are cool places to visit, and I'm sure it has its hidden gems, but I've been there twice now and both times left feeling like there was no reason to hurry back.

Drive up to Anacortes and take the ferry to the San Juan Islands. Amazing, amazing place.

We went up to Seattle, San Juan Island, Vancouver and Whistler last year and easily I'd tell everyone on that itinerary to avoid the cities and head to the islands and the mountains. So so beautiful.

I'm actually planning on moving up there in the next few years I loved it so much.

Great place to bum spot. No problem seeing some junkies and street pissers even in mid afternoon. Its like SanFran with no sewers.

Drive 30 miles in any direction and its awesome beautiful country with superb seafood and wine. Nice people.

Thanks. This is the sort of advice I was hoping for.
