Live music and big name groups: The Crocodile (downtown) or The Tractor in Ballard.
Best Irish Pub: Connor Byrne in Ballard. Also, try Kell's near Pike Place Market!
Best Happy Hour: The Harborside on Westlake overlooking Lake Washington, TiniBigs on 1st & Denny, Hiram's at the Locks along Shilshole Bay (Ballard). Best Location for Seattle Activities: Lowell's in Pike Place Market (view), Pike Place Market Bar & Grill (view), Viginia Inn, Kell's Irish Pub (outdoor seating avail) - ALL near Pike Place Market. Some outdoor seating, some view of market and/or Puget Sound.
Most Practical: Sit & Spin (City Center/downtown), get a drink and do your laundry!
I love the Harborside because I never tire of looking out the window at the beautiful marina, passing sailboats and lovely sunsets! Additionally, they have wonderful food on their happy hour menu (4p-6p). Hiram's at the Locks has the same lovely view of sailboats coming and going along with a budget-minded travellers dream for a happy hour menu! How can one complain w/a great menu and a perfect view, Northwest style!
Tip: Try the Crab Cakes at Harborside and the grilled Salmon at Hiram's (dinner)!
Most who stop into any of the places I've listed are stopping in after work. So, what we refer to as 'business casual' is the norm. However, as I've mentioned before, Seattle is very relaxed when it comes to dress. Knowing what the average person might be wearing is simply a tip for you - you will fit right in most everywhere in Seattle wearing what you're comfortable in!
