"A popular anchovy-tin-sized bar near Pike Place Market, it went on life support in March when owner Bryan Jarr temporarily closed it due to rising costs and debts; by late November, after behind-the-scenes attempts to find a path to reopening failed, the closure became permanent, almost exactly a decade after opening. In a farewell note, Jarr reflected that the bar was imperfect and unpolished but full of character, with highs and lows, triumphs and flaws." - Harry Cheadle
