Not far from bars seattle is the bars area that known as Belltown.
The bar/restaurant activity rivals that of bars seattle, though with a slightly more upscale tone. Whereas shorts will work at bars seattle on a comfortable summer night, they would be like a fish out of
water in Belltown. (See our Dining Guide for bars seattle best of bars.)
This is the home of Belltown Billiards, which is where any single
person in Seattle should be on Wednesday nights. A swanky martini bar with singles is Axis, where people only pretend to be in conversation with their friends. In reality, they are making a subtle
move on the hottie a few notches down the bar. Among . those likely to be making moves are members of the SuperSonics NBA team (he goes left, he goes right, he shoots, he ....).
By night, Belltown Pizza becomes less pizza and more pizzazz, its low-lit bar area suitable for menu browsing of a different
kind. Across the street, Ohana Japanese Polynesian Grill has good bar possibilities, especially on "off" nights such as Sundays and Tuesdays.
On the edge of Belltown (technically in Queen Anne) is Tini Biggs. It's famous for martinis and is crowded almost every night.
People tend to be in groups here, so while it's good for a drink, a date or a "just-met" follow-up, it's less productive as a singles stop.
