Sample Seattle’s best Food and Tunes and music by local artists

Up to $3 food sampling and where you can pick up your punchcard at participating Broadway retail stores.

I’ve long said Capitol Hill has Seattle’s best food, best espresso, best chocolate, best desserts and some of the best Chefs in the Northwest. Combine that with local music in the same neighborhood that was the stomping ground for Jimi Hendrix and Kurt Cobain and local art…and well, does it get any better?

Call your friends, grab your partner, pick up a card at a participating merchant on Broadway and start your “Bite”. And don’t forget to pay tribute to the local icon of music at Jimi’s statue on Broadway and Pine.
