Queen Anne

Metro Magazine Feed RSS FEED

Winding streets lined with gorgeous restored vintage houses, some of the city’s best restaurants and shops, great views, all of Seattle Center’s offerings at your feet—it’s no wonder the vibrant Queen Anne neighorhood is one of the most sought-after real estate spots in the city. That vibrancy is most evident on Queen Anne’s main drag, where new shops like the cool but natural Urban Kids Play and boutique/gallery Bouncing Wall join longtime favorites like Queen Anne Books and Hilltop Yarn. Trendy restaurants such as Betty and How to Cook a Wolf attract residents and visitors alike. Pop into El Diablo for some fine Cuban coffee, then take a stroll by Kinnear Park for some startling vistas. Hop on a bus and be downtown in minutes. And drink in the city and Sound vistas, all around.
