"You’d think that with how locals worship summertime, there’d be more patios functioning as a fun come-and-go HQ. (Oh, did you want to bring seven friends to Westward on a Friday in July? Dream big.) For a warm weather hang that isn’t a whole to-do, Citizen in Queen Anne works perfectly. Yeah, it’s a dad’s astroturf fever dream with a random assortment of lawn furniture and a complete lack of design. But you can barge in with a load of pals, rot under the sun indefinitely nursing frozen cocktails, and eat bulgogi-topped pub nachos that taste exactly as good as they’re supposed to." - aimee rizzo
