If you have the urge to do a bit of clubbing and barhopping while in Seattle, there's no better place to start than in Pioneer Square. Good times are guaranteed whether you want to hear a live band, hang out in a good old-fashioned bar, or dance. The Belltown neighborhood, north of Pike Place Market, is another good place to club hop.
Clubs here are more trend-conscious, as are the customers.
Seattle's other nightlife district is the former Scandinavian neighborhood of Ballard, where you'll find more than half of Seattle's nightlife establishments, including a brew pub, taverns, bars, live-music clubs, and a wine bar.
