Seattle Bites Food Tours pairs memorable stories of the market and its merchants with delicious gourmet and unique food and beverage tastings, including a few special treats exclusive to Seattle Bites tour guests. And we’ll throw in our favorite Market restaurant and entertainment recommendations too!
• SMALL & INTIMATE
Our bites are big but our tour size is small (we try to limit each tour to no more than 14 guests). Small and intimate – that’s us! This ensures that you enjoy direct interaction with your tour host and the merchants you’ll be meeting.
• BIG BITES
Come hungry! Seattle Bites offers the biggest and most memorable bites of the Market. Our guests tell us that it’s more than enough to be considered lunch.
• CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?
Seattle Bites provides every guest with discreet, personal listening devices allowing you to hear every word of your tour host’s narration. So go ahead and walk away, up to 150 feet. You won’t miss a word!
• STREET CRED
Tours are led by local culinary and history enthusiasts with merchant interaction from our charismatic Pike Place Market merchants.
• YUMMO!
Be prepared to bite into a quilt of culinary delights, including pastrami flown in from the Big Apple, brats from a German master, and the “nation’s best” chowder just to name a few.
• HONEST! YOU CAN’T MAKE THIS STUFF UP
Seattle Bites marries food tastings with captivating historic tidbits: Learn why the lowly garden onion caused a big stink and launched Pike Place Market; we will tell you the “real” story behind the “first” Starbucks; find out why they called Nellie “Naughty”, and more.
