( 206-938-3279; 4559 California Ave SW; RapidRide C-Line)
This place has everything:
rock and roll, coffee, beer, food…and an open, airy place to hang out while enjoying all
of the above. Any place where you can shop for new-import records, have a beer and
then kick back on the couch for a while is bound to attract attention, and you might
have to elbow some hipsters out of your way to grab that coveted album - just try not
to spill.

WATER TAXI TO WEST SEATTLE
The boat ride from downtown to West Seattle is short and sweet (there are no
vehicles, thus less waiting time). A water taxi leaves Pier 50 on the waterfront at
30 minutes past the hour and returns from Seacrest Park in West Seattle on the
hour. Note: there's no weekend service in the winter. Crossings take 15 minutes,
just enough time to pick your jaw up after you take in the vast panorama of the
Seattle skyline. From the boat dock, a free shuttle bus (No 775) connects to Alki
Beach, while another (No 773) goes to the Junction.
