http://www.ilove88keys.com This popular dueling piano bar attracts a wide swath of people, owing to its location among several bars, restaurants, and sport arenas. On weekends, talented pianists provide plenty of entertainment and are able to play almost all requests. Midweek, if you drop by longing for a pop song, an electric jukebox provides everything from Britney Spears to Foo Fighters to Luther Vandross. An impressive liquor selection makes the music that much better. More >>

http://www.seattlealibi.com For the only ironclad alibi that actually contains the word alibi, go to the Alibi Room. This is definitely a local bar, mainly because it's so easy to miss. Especially because the yards and yards of ABC gum (that is to say, Already Been Chewed) on the opposite wall is, well, astounding in its ugliness. Fortunately, the bar itself is the picture of taste: its walls are exposed brick, the lighting is dim but for the spotlights highlighting works by local artists that always hang the walls (they switch it up every month or so), and despite it's obscure location, this is a place to see and be seen. Tempting entrées include seared sliced scallops with marsala cream and salmon with black beans and cornbread. The staff is horribly good-looking, the drinks are small masterpieces of mixology, and Long Island iced teas are forbidden. During the summer, happy hour is from 11:30 a.m. until 6 p.m. every day.

http://www.bluemoonseattle.wordpress.com The Blue Moon is like a home away from home (or possibly just home) to all kinds—it's often touted as the old haunt of local literary legend Tom Robbins. Thursday through Saturday nights, it hosts live music—heavy on rock and Americana—but days have their own charm, filled with streaming sunlight, plants, walls lined with books, and academics, transients, and grad students immersed in lively conversations. Out front, a scaled-down version of SAM's hammering man lifts a beer to his lips, and the nude rendering of a woman resting on a crescent moon woos would-be patrons. Not that they're hurting for more—the regulars alone could carry the place to 2034 and then some. More >>

http://www.caferacerseattle.com Like the childhood friend's house whose front door was always open, Café Racer has earned a reputation for laidback, unpretentious fun. The U-District café and bar has become an incubator for local folk and jazz bands, most notably with their 'Racer Sessions,' a weekly night of experimental music. Yes, this is the place where the kitchen stuffs bacon into a polish sausage and grills it, calling it The Incredible Wonder Wiener. Weekend brunch means corned beef hash, French toast, egg sammies and chili-stuffed omelets. Racer also boasts a full bar, local beer, coffee and tea, and a full lunch and weekend brunch menu. More >>

http://www.cafevenus.com Cafe Venus/Mars Bar, snugly situated on the southern, more out-of-the-way section of Eastlake, is a comfy spot, charmingly rough around the edges. While the Mars side channels traces of its punk-inspired predecessor (the Storeroom Tavern) with red lights and live rock shows, the Venus cafe portion is more Joy of Cooking than Joy Division, with an espresso machine, brighter lighting, and a cheery atmosphere.

http://www.thecancan.com Entering Can Can is like walking into Moulin Rouge-not the Parisian tourist trap, the Baz Luhrmann movie. The surreal dinner club serves up cocktails, dinner, and two burlesque shows a night, with servers doubling as cancan dancers. Unfortunately, the menu may read well (pappardelle with portabellos in truffled cream sauce, roasted halibut with lemon risotto) but the uneven, and expensive, food often suggests no one in the kitchen bothered to taste it before sending it to your table. Luckily, the view from the bar lounge ain't bad. More >>
