I'm also local but haven't met anyone in the group yet so don't know what you might like. What hotel are you using? How many people are you expecting? You want a bar/restaurant on the waterfront with a view? I don't go to Seattle too often and haven't been to any of the places Heather has listed. Once I get a better feel for what you're looking for I have people I can ask.

Closest to Pier 91 is Palisades (www.palisaderestaurant.com) This place I have been to. Great view, a little $$
Below Palisades is Maggies Bluff (maggiebluffs.com) The view is of the marina, not as good as Palisades but less $.

I love the Edgewater (www.edgewaterhotel.com) The Beatles stayed here in 1964 and fished from their room window! Great view from the water's edge but they don't have happy hour on Saturday. Regular price beer starts at $4 / cocktails $6 / appetizers $8 and up. They do have happy hour/prices on Sunday,

The show ends at 5 on Saturday. Assuming we stay until it closes it's going to be tight to get to a location and get an order in before happy hour prices cut off (usually @ 6).

There may be something better close to your hotel. I'll have my car and can take 4 passengers anywhere you want to go.

This is a new venue for us because they moved the show. So anyplace near the show would be great.

Usually we opt for LESS $ venues as our focus is meeting new people and getting some sustenance in us vs eating at Seattle's most trendy places.

Getting to any Happy Hour by a certain time is usually a bit hard but if we send people to scout a table a bit early then we are usually ok.

Normally I never leave a show early but this year I can make an exception so we are free to choose a place...any place at anytime.

We do need to be sure there is good parking available and preferably more moderately priced. Afterall why spend money on food when you can spend it on DIVING!!! :lol:

Parking for the show lot is $10 a day or a 3 day pass for $25

Parking for Maggies Bluff or Palisades is free.

Parking for the Edgewater is valet for a flat $6.

All of the places Heather listed have websites too. Check out the menus. If you're interested in one of those let me know and I'll check out the parking situation.

My vote is Maggies Bluff or Palisades on Saturday and Edgewater on Sunday. Only because I know of them and they are easy to get to. When do you fly out?

Pier 91 is at the North end of the waterfront kind of off by itself away from the downtown waterfront if that makes any sense!

Wow. I almost forgot all about this. I only saw it from an email from DAN. I can only go on Saturday and Tom is debating. My mom just got tickets for us to go to a show on Sunday. I need to find out where and when this is. I am not sure if I will stay too late for a happy hour. I would prefer dinner if anything. So if you choose a place that has food it would be helpful. I have a 2 hour trip to get home. It will be fun to see you! Looking forward to it.

Hi Cindy, we hope you and Tom will be able to make it at least for Saturday. :angel2: I have updated the top post with your information and hope Sealassie or The Wench will be able to tell you whether the Happy Hour location they have selected will suffice as a dining venue. :)

:( It's OFFICIAL...doc says no flying for 3 weeks...the crud I have has extended past a cold. :tears:

Got some crud that has developed into something more thanks to so many flights and a back to back trip and tradeshow.

So I will be cancelling the show this weekend despite REALLY WANTING TO BE THERE!!!

Hopefully the peeps wanting to the the Happy Hour will still get together to meet each other!

And I can call in via phone so I can be there with you at least in spirit.

Wishing the news were better.... Kamala

Disappointed..Posted Image I was looking forward to meeting this Wench person! All the recycled air on planes will keep you sick. The doc is right, stay on the ground and breathe some clean air. Hope you are feeling better soon. See ya in Roatan.
