A food walk through Pike Place, minus the tourist traps

The market is calmest before the lunch rush, so our tour starts at ten and finishes before the queues. We visit stalls that have been in the same family for decades, and we pay them the same price you would.

Come hungry. By the third stop most guests have given up on lunch plans, and that is the intention.

Every guest gets a short list of the places we liked most, so you can go back on your own.
