Von's 1000 Spirits

Ever seen a wall stacked with a 1000 different spirits? If not, then you should visit Von's Gustobistro. With drinks ranging from Tequila to Martinis you can be certain that you will have a great time there. Take a seat on one of the many shiny wooden stools at either two bars adorning both sides of the interior. While you're enjoying your drink, have a look around to scope out which drink will be your next one. The bartenders are extremely knowledgeable and can advise you on any of the bottles you might not recognize.

Bars & Nightlife

Seattle has no shortage of local bars and nightclubs that are sure to make any visitor feel like a real native. Blues clubs, British bars, Irish pubs, lounges, dive bars and college bars are just a few of the varieties you will find. Just as Seattle's food scene relishes using local products, their bars show local pride with most having at least a couple of regional and local beers on tap. The city was early to the craft cocktail craze, in which hand-mixed cocktails with fresh juices and garnishes push your typical margarita mix. During the 1980s and early 1990s, a collection of bands from Seattle cultivated a distinct sound commonly known as grunge. A mixture of hard rock, punk and metal, the so-called “Seattle sound” helped foster the contemporary rock movement. Several top grunge bands call Seattle home including Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains.
