Description:
DOWNTOWN. Although it's experienced a variety of incarnations, the Showbox today is a must-visit place to catch touring bands. Amid Art Deco columns, young and hip crowds clamor to hear and see their favorite groups. There's even a dance floor for them to show off their moves if the spirit strikes. Plus, several bars accommodate patrons with a good menu of libations. If hunger strikes, check out the Green Room for some Mexican-inspired pub grub. DJs play when bands aren't booked. |

Description:
DOWNTOWN. This local institution is the place for true jazz lovers, and the "best of" awards it's garnered are proof of its quality and longevity. The elegant club offers specially created artwork and first-rate lighting and sound systems. Patrons dress for the evening, and many of them dine in the club's restaurant before they partake of the musical entertainment, which includes two sets nightly. A full service bar makes sure that you'll have a cocktail or glass of wine to add to the mellow atmosphere. Some of jazz's best talents have played here (Tito Puente, Branford Marsalis, Diane Schuur, and Cleo Laine), and aficionados always make the Alley a West Coast stop. |

Description:
PIONEER SQUARE & INT'L DISTRICT. Established in 1892, the historic Central Saloon stands as the Seattle area's oldest watering hole, its antique green front facade likely looking much as did back in the "Skid Row" days, when Pioneer Square was an area of ill-repute. Today's clientele is distinctly more upscale than that of 1901, and you'll likely find a wide range of people saddled up at the old bar, enjoying everything from PBR to Red Hook. The Saloon features live bands nightly, usually a local or regional talent, and also participates in the Pioneer Square Joint Cover, which allows patrons pay one base cover charge for entry into a handful of Pioneer Square nightspots. |

In addition, delicious Northwest pub-grub is available, including pastas, burgers, and salads, as well as cod fish and chips, and an unforgettable clam strip dinner. |
