Seattle's iconic landmark earns high marks from visitors who consistently rave about the spectacular panoramic views and the rich history woven throughout the building. The rooftop bar is a genuine highlight, with reviewers calling out tasty drinks, friendly staff, and a romantic atmosphere perfect for catching a sunset over the city. A few visitors noted that cloudy days can dampen the experience, and the Boozy High Tea has drawn some mixed feedback around food quality and consistency. These seem worth keeping in mind depending on what you're planning to do there. For most visitors though, the combination of history, views, and a great drink in hand makes this a highly recommended stop. Many specifically mention it as a better value alternative to other Seattle observation experiences, and the legendary Wishing Chair inside adds a fun, quirky touch that people genuinely love.
Nice view of the city and the sound. We enjoyed a cocktail with the view. They have a bartender’s choice: you tell them what you like and they get creative.
