After a book-browse at the Elliot Bay Book Company, stroll through Cal Anderson Park and maybe take in some bowling at Garage. Then it's time to start thinking about dinner and nightlife!

Among the great eateries of Capitol Hill is Star Fusion & Bar, with consistently top marks. Just a couple of doorways to the south is another favorite, Herb & Bitter.

To start off the night, stop by Bait Shop. If a classic dive bar is what you're in the mood for, the Comet and Linda's Tavern should be on your map. Two other recommendable nightspots are Tavern Law and Rose Temple Bar.
