Seattle Food

Like amazing art, Seattle is filled with some pretty tasty food too.  These establishments will get your mouth salivating and your tummy growling.

Molly Moon’s Homemade Ice Cream

Molly’s is a Seattle based homemade ice cream shop that partners with local farmers and producers for high quality local ingredients to craft the finest ice cream in Washington. The first time we walked in, they were still hand making the waffle cones.  This means my decadent dairy treat was served in a waffle cone that was STILL WARM.  O.M.G.  I didn’t eat the rest of the day but it was worth it. 

If their ice cream wasn’t enough to make you feel happy inside, you should know that Molly Moon’s gives 1% of all sales to local food banks and the Anna Banana Milk Fund.  They also donate 3200 scoops of ice cream per year to local non-profits and school programs.  On top of that, 100% of the products used in their shops are compostable.  So there you have it…eating Molly Moon’s is good for the community AND the environment!  There are 8 locations in and around Seattle so stop by and feed your sweet tooth!

Biscuit Bitch

Biscuit Bitch is a must visit for breakfast in Seattle!  You have to get there early because there will be a line but it moves fast and it’s worth it!  The owner, Kimmie Spice, has cooked up unique and scrumptious biscuit creations including “The Canadian Bitch” with maple peanut butter and bacon, or “The Smokin’ Hot Bitch” with a biscuit and gravy smothered in cheese and topped with a grilled Louisiana Hot Link and jalapenos, bringing some southern style to the State of Washington. Don’t let this one slip off your list. Bring your appetite. 

I’m sorry there are no food pictures, apparently it was so good the camera didn’t make it fast enough!

Pike Place Market

Pike Place Market is like a Food Mecca, a foodie’s paradise.  All the gourmet eats one could ask for is gathered on one street through the heart of the Historic District. From Farmer’s Markets to Spices to the Fish Market and beyond, you can eat your way through Pike Place.

Starbucks- The Original

We may be jaded after seeing a Starbucks on every other corner in every major city, but the one located at Pike Place is special. It’s the first location that opened back in 1971, starting what has become a Seattle coffee craze. 

Beecher’s Homemade Cheese

The glass kitchen walls in Beecher’s offer a clear view of the cheesemaking process. You can watch from the sidewalk or inside the store but be sure to drop in to try some of their signature cheeses.  Beecher’s is located at Pike Place Market, next door to the original Starbucks.  For more information, visit their website at www.beechershomemadecheese.com
