Pike Place Market Visitor Guide - What to See, Do, and Eat

[@HomeAtLast501]

There's something very comforting about having a wife/female partner who thrives on planning all aspects of travel and touring, and who does a great job doing so, and who therefore can run the show on your trip.

A girl who sacrifices her life to be sure your pyrosky is safe to eat!! Thats ❤ baby!😊

In my youth I would go to pike place on many weekends. It's like stepping back in time. Great food and shops, and no matter how often you would go you can always see something new. It used to have an old wood staircase going out the bottom floor leading to the piers and the old trolley. Good memories.

Oh how fun!!!! Anytime you can visit back to your childhood is always great 😊 thank you for watching, we appreciate the support 🙌

@@scottsdaletravelchickwe’ll be in Seattle 3 days before our cruise. Our problem is we have almost 10 hoursvonce we dock before our plane. Should we rent a car or hire someone, and what’s to do outside downtown Seattle. Can you help with some advice?

I grew up in Seattle and I remember that people did drug deals in the corner of that park lol. I like going to the comic book store, magic store, the coin collection store and the candy store down in the shop. The book stores are cute to

[@scottsdaletravelchick]

@@shaleniprasad8462 Hi Shaleni, The site is called Scotts Cheap Flights. Here is the link: scottscheapflights.yuy8ab.net/xYkn3 You just put in the airports you'd like to fly from (better to put more than one) and they send you great deals every day. It costs ~$49/yr but you easily make that up the first time you take a trip Recent deals this week are flights to Europe for $269 RT! $199 RT to Costa Rica, etc. scottscheapflights.yuy8ab.net/xYkn3

I love vibrant market places and this place really looks very colorful and vibrant in Seattle. I would definitely love to spend some time here when I visit Seattle.

It’s really such a fun & crazy market!!! Especially watching everyone get so excited when they start throwing the fish 🤣

Loved the weird cat/man playing the Orchestra ha ha...😂 ohh my goodness Lara those donuts 🍩 yum! 😝 It gum wall is kinda cool, but also kinds disgusting 🤢😁 it goes for ages...awww loved the selfie museum. We don’t have anything like that in Australia 🐨😄👌 This market is absolutely massive. Definitely will be putting this on my bucket list. Great video guys 😃💪👏

[@issues9828]

Pike Place feels like an airport terminal. Findlay Market in Cincinnati is amazing, it's far more intimate, and it seamlessly extends from the main market buildings into the surrounding community.

[@scottsdaletravelchick]

we haven't had a chance to get to Cincinnati - maybe a future trip we will make it out there. Thanks for watching our video though, we appreciate it.

[@allaboutaustralia5112]

You guys go to the best places. Love how adventurous you both are. Sis hubby buy you some of the $10 flowers.

I'm sure, there must be a candle stick maker somewhere? ;-D When visiting the Pike Place Market, I stop off at "The Crumpet Shop" for a salmon spread and cucumber crumpet. ;-)

I love Pike's Place Marketplace but I just found out my wife lived born and raised in Seattle Washington never been to pace place market means once we can save enough money we are going back to Seattle Washington and I want to take her there show her how beautiful it is

[@scottsdaletravelchick]

Oh yes!!!! We have been there a couple of times, so fun to walk through the market. I still think the funnest thing is when they are singing and throwing the fish. Hope you get to go soon. Thanks for watching

How much is it? I don't want to contact you if the price isn't right!

[@fauxbro1983]

Lol you just gotta get thru 3rd street which is bum central. Gotta get around the fentanyl ODs and needles

[@mandieeleaver3321]

It is a fun market but it’s been many years since I’ve been

[@fredgarv79]

I live here and this is a very well done video. it's fun and entertaining even for someone who has been to this place a million times. It is a great place no matter how touristy it is, just don't go on a sunny saturday in the summer, go on a rainy wet cold tuesday in november.the lower areas are really interesting although not as good as it was back in the day. there used to be really cool bookstores, now more commercial stuff.I must mention the park, you did mention the big problem with seattle, the homeless, you called them "bums". oh, if you ever said that here, you would be vilified. You must use the politically correct terms such as temporarily homeless. As long as your deft at stepping over needles, you will be fine

[@scottsdaletravelchick]

Hi Fred Thank you for the nice comment. Overall, we really enjoyed Seattle area (did you also see our Waterfront review?) but we did distinctly notice a lot of ‘temporary homeless’. My husband says he’s still gonna call them bums. 🙂

[@fredgarv79]

@@scottsdaletravelchick I should have said "temporarily unhoused". The one thing you showed very well here is the seafood. so fresh and so much of it. I don't know if I could live in a land locked area without access to all this fresh seafood, mostly from Alaska and fresh live crab right out of the tank. There are asian markets in Edmonds just a little north of Seattle that will even clean them for you right out of the tank and they are way cheaper. Also since I have not been to the waterfront since they got rid of the ugly alaskan way viaduct, your video was the first time I saw it. It looked SO different and SO much better. I had my car broken into parked under that thing. Actually just last week I went to a classical music concert at the Seattle symphony right in the downtown area. it was the first time I had been there in years.

[@nightowl5475]

Temporary homeless? You’re deluding yourself. Try, permanent homeless and more to come. The homeless go there because they are not only tolerated, they’re welcomed! The people in Seattle use ridiculous terminology to sugarcoat a problem that’s only going to get worse and continue to destroy your city. You get rid of the homeless by having the police roust them continuously, so that they become very uncomfortable staying in that area. I think, if the people are that delusional, why not call them, inspirational intermediate underachievers. If the citizens of Seattle enjoy bullshitting themselves, why not go all the way?

[@mruribe73]

We are traveling from California and we have a dog. Is the fish Market pet friendly

[@scottsdaletravelchick]

I’m sorry I can’t remember if I saw many dogs there, it’s busy for sure. You might just need to Google that question

[@shamanbeartwo3819]

The Market proper does not allow any kind of pet unless it is an ADA service dog. But Seattle in general is very dog friendly and don't be surprised to see them in pubs, the grocery, Home Depot, etc.

I've always wanted to go to Seattle it just looks really fun! Plus my cousin and his wife with his 2 kids live there! I gotta go to Seattle sometime. :)

[@jacksampson1347]

I remember going to this place as a kid back in the 90s It was always fun they sold everything from switch blade knives to ninja stars Firecrackers and all kinds of things kids thought were cool It's sad to see this video now With people waiting in huge lines to check out shops and get the goods It's a pale comparison to what it used to be Now it's just a tourist trap I'm so happy I left that Dump of a state I actually went back a few years ago l I almost got beat in the head by homeless man whipping around a chain Luckily he got taken down before he smacked me straight to the dome I moved far away from that place to a different state Now I live in the middle of the woods and I'm so happy It used to be cool there But now it's just a dump don't even bother showing up Or do I really don't care Seattle is a cesspool

Don't go down the back steps down towards the waterfront. Smells like p!SS really bad in that area and you may get mugged.

UHHHH no thanks. Used to love going to Seattle on the way to the San Juans to kayak and visiting on the way back. Same with travelling to San Francisco. Wife and I big foodies loved it. Now you could not pay me to go back to either place. We actually moved out of California. Very sad to see what it has become.
