"The Thompson Hotel’s rooftop bar has some of the best views in the city, overlooking West Seattle and the Puget Sound. It’s seasonal menu includes solid small bites (such as oysters and smoked scallops with wakame and cantaloupe gel), along with several inventive cocktails (including the Pea Diddy, with Ketel One, pea flower, and giffard passionfruit). Those with large groups should arrive early or make reservations, as lines tend to build up quickly." - Maggy Lehmicke
