From the epicenter of the coffee world, to the clubs that spawned the grunge movement, Capitol Hill is chock full of some of the most unique history and character in the city! Learn to express yourself in a neighborhood that celebrates individuality and fashion, serving as a hub for the city’s counterculture communities. Spend the day dining at trendy bistros, shopping at chic boutiques and markets, or walking through numerous parks perfect for picnics or just passing the time. Explore your creative side by touring the most vibrant music and art scene in all of Western Washington, that created rock legends like Jimi Hendrix, whose statue can still be found in the heart of Broadway shredding one last eternal guitar riff for anyone who passes by. On the weekend visit one of the many block parties or community forums always encouraging residents and tourists to mix, mingle, and dance their worries away. Even redefine your meaning of nightlife as you paint the town in some of the hottest clubs and bars around featuring German beer halls, the classiest of whiskey houses, and showstoppers like R Place. Finally, treat yourself with a world-famous Dick’s Drive-In burger or a mouthwatering cookie from the local favorite bakery: Hello Robin – you’ll be wondering why you didn’t do it sooner.
