Overview

This two hour happy hour walk, led by a chef guide, takes place in the neighborhood of the Amazon Spheres and finishes in Denny Triangle, pairing drinks and bites from independent Seattle food businesses. Three cocktails and a glass of bubbles are built in: a slushy margarita, a Moscow mule, a Mai Kai, and sparkling wine to finish. The tour starts at 17:00 outside King Leroy on 7th Ave and ends three blocks away at Lady Yum, where dessert and bubbles close out the evening.

The group has a maximum of twelve travellers. Food comes in the form of substantial bites at four locations, and reviewers repeatedly say they left full. Vegetarian and gluten free diets can be accommodated, though not vegan.

It suits adults who want an early evening of drinks, dinner bites and local food scene commentary. Several travellers mentioned learning about the neighborhood's history and how it shapes the food culture today, and one reviewer said it was worth it for the recommendations alone.
