"Chances are, if you’ve spent any time on Capitol Hill after 10pm, you’ve found yourself in a deep wood booth at Comet Tavern wondering how they get those dollars on the ceiling. The place is an ever-evolving enigma, with new generations of Seattleites constantly rediscovering its red-glow charm or establishing it as a meeting place for summer’s Capitol Hill Block Party. No matter the time of year, a night here is almost always fun, loud, and a little sticky. Pinball, ending your night with a Seattle dog nearby" - kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
