Seattle’s Best Dive Bars | Eater Seattle

"Founded in the ‘70s and proud of it, the Waterwheel has a groovy vibe, dim lighting, and a patio that makes this a great summertime dive. They also host karaoke and trivia regularly, and occasionally pull off stunts like “temperature priced” domestic drafts. Come while you still can: This bar is slated to close in 2026 when the building will be redeveloped." - Meg van Huygen
