Noshes at the Space Needle: The Ultimate Seattle Food & Culture Tour

Seattle Food & Culture tour

of the Space Needle/Seattle Center/ Lower Queen Anne

Highlighting local food businesses in the epicenter of the Seattle Center & Space Needle neighborhood. Our chefs combine history, food and culture in one!

Set in the heart of Seattle Center, with the Space Needle towering above, this tour brings history and flavor together in a way that’s delightfully messy but undeniably glorious. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s Seattle. Join us for a walking tour that explores the rich history and diverse food scene of Seattle Center and Lower Queen Anne. Get ready for an unapologetically Seattle experience. This tour isn’t for the faint of heart or the overly picky – it’s for the adventurous, the curious, and the hungry for something real.We’re diving into what Seattle truly embraces: iconic flavors and the rich history of the Pacific Northwest.

We’ll start with a classic Seattle dog at an iconic location, then head to the Armory for a local favorite – a mouthwatering beef meat pie, highlighting local ingredients. You’ll also have the opportunity to try fresh, world-class oysters from Taylor Shellfish (don’t worry, it’s perfectly acceptable to skip this taste if oysters aren’t your thing). Next we will head to our favorite spot to sample a local cider, beer and Chef Brendan’s soft pretzel highlighting local grains. To finish up we will sample a unique PNW sweet treat.
