Pacific Northwest Trip: Seattle Day 1 (PM) Ballard neighborhood

To see what we did our first morning in Seattle check out this post here

After The Space Needle and Chihuly Garden and Glass we headed to the Ballard neighborhood for shopping and lunch. We had lunch at La Carta de Oaxaca. One of the BEST quesadillas I have ever had! They are fried and so delicious!

I never wanted to leave Anchored Ship Coffee Bar and I don't even drink coffee!

This nautical bar, Anchors Down, wasn't open (too early) but how fun does it look?

For dinner we met up with one of my sister's med school friends that now lives in Seattle. We ate at Quinn's Pub. I highly recommend getting a pretzel and/or the cheese plate to start. Yum!

  2. I love Ballard and Fremont! It's so fun to wander around there on a sunny day, especially when the market is open. My kids love watching the boats go through the locks.
