Best Shopping Malls, Outlet and Places in Bellevue Area

"After getting bumped from location to location through various construction projects, the Capitol Hill Farmers Market has finally found its home — and its groove, catering more to a younger crowd than many of the further-out neighborhoods. That means it starts a little later than others and has plenty of post-partying treats, like 9th & Hennepin doughnuts, El Chito tamales, and big, beautiful, gluten-free cakes from Grain Artisan Bakery."

"website | directions | schedule: Sundays 11 am – 3 pm, year round rain or shine. The Capitol Hill Farmers Market moved to a new permanent location in 2021 on E. Barbara Bailey Way, named after the beloved bookseller, LGBTQIA+ rights activist, and Seattle native."

"If you are visiting on a weekend this would be Sunday for you, so be sure to check out Fremont’s Sunday Farmer’s Market. Don’t fill up on the eats here though because I have a treat in store for you next…"

"Being of Irish descent and all, the fish had better be tender and moist inside the breaded shell. This joint pulls it off the way I like it, and the location, in and among a busy, festive town center atmosphere, isn’t bad either. While there is an official sit-down restaurant, complete with views of the Sound, I prefer the experience of ordering the meal from the Fish Bar on the side of the building and enjoying a bag of to-go items while sitting on a bench overlooking the large green mural of the Pacific Northwest and towering Mt. Rainier."

"Had an amazing Dinner at Wildfin tonight wi my Sister from Tucson and my Mom. Great service fro Shiny (sp?) & Reggie. Setting & Food were so good..."

"At the University District Farmers Market, prices manage to be affordable for even college students to buy locally grown fruits and vegetables. The market is open every Saturday from 9 am to 2 pm. From Mountain Lodge Farm goat’s cheese to Sno-Valley mushrooms, University District Farmers Market draws local producers from all over Washington State who sell tasty and high quality food."

"website | directions | schedule: Saturdays 9 am – 2 pm, year round rain or shine. The U-District neighborhood is right next to the University of Washington. It’s home to arguably the most popular market in Seattle conveniently located on “The Ave” near a ton of restaurants and shops catering to a student’s budget."

"Another of Seattle’s year-round markets, the University District Farmers Market is a Seattle-area favorite. The drive alone is scenic, featuring views of both Lake Union and Portage Bay. Once you’re there, the market itself is also something to behold."

"Located near Pike Place Market, Vetri is the sister gallery to the Traver Gallery and was founded in 1996. While it started out with a focus on studio glass, it now also showcases ceramics, jewelry and other artforms. Vetri curates both functional and decorative forms, so it’s a great place not only to peruse but to shop if you’re looking for a unique gift."

"Chef Sara Eveland has worked in the Seattle food scene for 15 years. She started selling cookies out of Watson’s Counter in Ballard as a way to share something independent of the restaurants she works in. You can also find her cookies at popups like Chachis Pizza, Big Footlongs, and Good Shape Pizza."

"Located in Pike Place Market, Northwest Tribal Art is a gallery that features museum-quality artwork from Northwest native tribes, including the Makah, Tlingit, Salish and others. You’ll find prints, carvings, jewelry, masks and more. Bonus, you can also learn more about the native cultures from the area, too."

"After several delays, this long-awaited brewery opened its stunning, vaguely (and appropriately) farmhouse-inspired taproom earlier this year to much acclaim thanks to their funky Farmhouse-style and wild beers, mostly saisons and sours that are made almost exclusively with Northwest ingredients, many of which have actually been foraged by the brewers. Highlights include the oak-aged Elenor ale fermented on blue elderberries, and IPA-ish Bobbi made with three kinds of hops and barley/malt from the Skagit Valley. How to order: In their taproom/beer garden"

"This rustic urban brewpub is famous for its farmhouse ales and an outdoor heated patio. Their small batch beer specials include Heinrich, Tove, Rankin and Bobbi. They use locally sourced hops from the Yakima Valley and peaches from the Cascade mountains to make their beers, Wines and Ciders."

"What’s more iconic in the Pacific Northwest than Rainier Beer design hallmarks?. The original Rainier Brewery in Georgetown lines an edge of Interstate 5, so drivers got accustomed to seeing the glowing red R as they drove south through Seattle. Then a dark time came: Tully’s took over the building in 2000 and replaced the R with a green T."

"This historic landmark in Seattle has bold and colorful buildings, perfect for a unique photoshoot. The Old Rainier Brewery is a very special place in the heart of SODO."

"The self-taught Japanese master landscaper Fujitaro Kubota (1879-1973) was a horticultural trailblazer, using time-honoured Japanese techniques while embracing plants and trees native to the Pacific Northwest. Running a successful gardening business in South Seattle, Kubota developed this exquisite show garden, creating hills, valleys, streams, waterfalls, ponds and rocky outcrops in 20 acres. The Kubota Garden was a labour of love spanning five decades and purchased by the City of Seattle in 1987."

"With its neat, symmetrical lines and delicate stones and water wheels, the Kubota Garden will let you travel to Japan without stepping foot out of Washington. It’s one of the most gorgeous places to see in all of Seattle. Part of its beauty comes from the fact that it was a labor of love."

"This semi-secret garden in south Seattle emulates a traditional Japanese garden using the plants of the Pacific Northwest. See All 114 Things to Do in Seattle"

"To the north of downtown Seattle is the neighbourhood of Ballard, home to Sunset Park. Placed above the busy bay it’s a wonderful spot to watch the sailboats and ships glide on by. As you can tell by the name the sunset views are the real appeal of this hidden Seattle gem."

"Descend to Fauntleroy's Lincoln Park through a green tunnel of stairs—the city's second most outdoor steps in a row—with wooden railings."
