Ivar's Salmon House -One of the best happy hours in Seattle! It's like a trip to Tillicum Village but without the boat ride, and better the deal with a full bar. BooYeah!

Blue Star, The 3-7pm M-F. $2.50 wells, $1 off pints. Tuesdays are the best- so you can visit with Russian motorcycle riders. Happy grub is good but small portioned. Their ‘1/2 price’ happy hour seems ta get ya '1/2 the food'... Still, I go there often to see great friends like Kenny W during brew tasting nights. Find the place in western end of Wallingford just off the 45th and Stone Way by the new Archie McPhees. 4512 Stone Way.
