Arts & Culture
This is my favorite tour in the city. They take you down to the old sidewalks from before the city burned down and tell you all about the history of Seattle. Spoiler: it was mostly lumber, toilets, and prostitutes.

Glo's is a Seattle classic. Watch out cause they run odd hours- during the weekdays they are 7 am to 3 pm, but on Saturday and Sunday they open at midnight (for the best drunk food ever) and don't close until 4 PM.

two words: berry bar. four more words: challah bread french toast. All of the locations are good, this one is my favorite. During the colder months, if you sit outside, they will offer you blankets. They will also always give you water for your dog.

Parks & Nature
See the waterfalls, hike down, and swim in the chilly water on warm sunny days. Warning: the hike back up can be brutal but there is also a small parking lot at the bottom of the falls.

Drinks & Nightlife
This place is a board game player's dream. The cafe- which also serves stellar food- is connected to a game store and most games can be borrowed while you are hanging out drinking and eating. I personally like munchkin or one of the many varieties of Fluxx.

A speakeasy located under an apartment complex. Text for a reservation, especially if its a weekend. It is tiny but the food (especially the caprese and the tots) are great and they are known for their delicious cocktails. Try something with egg white in it- I dare you.
