The Rebel

The Rebel

Wallingford • $$

The old Kate's Pub got a second life as an employee-owned dive slinging stacked cheesesteaks, chopped cheese, and smashburgers. Cheap beer, Fernet on deck, and a pool table in back.

Climate Pledge Arena

Climate Pledge Arena

Uptown

The world's greenest arena goes hard on game day: Kraken hockey, big-ticket concerts, an undersea light show, and a food lineup with Dungeness crab rolls and a Piroshky Piroshky collab.

Shib Shib

Shib Shib

Downtown Seattle

Tucked into an International District alleyway, Shibshib is the kind of bar you feel smug for knowing about. Intimate vibes, well-crafted cocktails, and snacks like Pan con Tomat and Blistered Shishito Peppers.

Stacked

Stacked

Uptown • $

East coast-style sandwiches are a rarity in Seattle, and Stacked nails them from the back of a dive bar. Order the Grinder or the fried chicken, and don't skip the jojos, ranked among the city's best by Infatuation.

Clock-Out Lounge

Clock-Out Lounge

Mid-Beacon Hill • $$

TUSH drag shows turn this neighborhood bar into a full-blown joy machine. Expect fierce performances, surprisingly good pizza by the slice, and a crowd that actually knows how to have fun.

Emma's BBQ

Emma's BBQ

Rainier Valley • $$

Emma's BBQ honors family recipes with tender brisket that earns its smoke ring and mac and cheese that hits just right. The walls tell stories, but the food speaks for itself.

Frequently asked questions

How are these bar food in Seattle chosen?

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.

Is everything here still happening?

Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.

How can Outgoing help me find something I’ll actually want to do?

Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.

Do I need an account to use Outgoing?

You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.

Is Outgoing free?

Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
