The Can Can underneath the Pike Place Market: it’s hot! it’s tiny! live shows! eye candy! don’t bring your grand-mother-in-law unless she likes to drink the Absinthe. Yes, one of the only – maybe the only – bar in Seattle that serves Absinthe and puts pretty things dancing around in front of you to enjoy it with. Eye Candy, drinks, food (so so, but cheap) and an intimate, lively, elbow to elbow crowd… definitely a unexpected experience if you’re visiting from say, Lubbock TX. Enjoy!
The Castaways are their resident troupe. The shows sell out fast, and the place is tiny so get there a bit earlier and have some dinner and drinks. If you’re claustrophobic then you may want to rethink your decision, or take your pills before you go.
To get there: Walk to 1st & Pike, look to your right – see the anarchist bookstore, LeftBankBooks?

If you’re coming to Seattle this summer you should know that since it’s the best weather of the year, EVERYONE coming to Seattle chooses summer. The weather is like San Diego and the scenery is like San Francisco.
In summer, hotels shoot up their prices like OPEC during conflict and so for this post – a SMART hotel choice: The Ace Hotel. I describe it to my friends as a grown up hostel – modern, fun, progressive and design focused AND inexpensive. Maybe $99 for a room without a private bath.. and then $195 for a room with a private bath. If you’re young (minded) take the $99 option if it’s available… although the room is without a bathroom, the PRIVATE shared bathrooms are usually just outside your door and are clean nice and have great bath products. The Belltown location is great if you’re into restaurants, bars, clubs and shopping (Kuhlman is attached!)….. it can get loud at night on the weekends from the neighborhood activity … so you may as well just go out and join them. Oh yeah – it’s also a quick walk to the SAM Olympic Sculpture Park, the Pike Place Market and it’s adjacent to the downtown core.
