After a busy day of jetting around town with your Go Seattle Card, it’s time to relax with a delicious glass of wine.

If you’re downtown, check out 13 Coins in the Pike Place Market with their extensive wine menu to accompany their special 24 hour menu! There’s also Purple Cafe and Wine Bar, serving a special “tasting” menu including food and wine starting at 3 pm daily.

If you’re in the Ballard area, there’s Volterra for fine Italian food paired with wonderful wine or Portalis Wine Shop & Wine Bar, featuring 400 wines from around the world.

In the Queen Anne area, be sure and stop by The Sitting Room, which was inspired by cafes and bars in France where food and wine are inseparable. With a motto of “In vino veritas…” ( in wine there is truth…Plato), Bricco della Regina is another great spot that knows the value of a fantastic wine.

Smashwine in Greenlake proclaims their motto, “where food and wine collide,” proudly. They offer fabulous entrees and snacks along with flight and glass pours for their patrons. The Twisted Cork wine bar in Bellevue, a 2007 Wine Spectator award winner, is known for their 300 bottle wine cellar, 50 wines by-the-glass, and a 20 by-the-glass Champagne and sparkling wine list.

Wherever strikes your fancy, be sure and have a toast to your time in Seattle!
