A hidden gem in the heart of Seattle's historic farmers market! This tiny, cozy spot offers an unforgettable experience with the best chowders in town—rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The sourdough is perfectly baked, with a crisp crust and soft, tangy interior, making it a must-try. The warm and friendly staff make you feel right at home with their charm and hospitality. The atmosphere is uniquely inviting, and every bite of food is excellent. If you're visiting Seattle, this place is a must-stop for a comforting and authentic taste of the city!

We had an amazing dining experience at this restaurant in Pike Place Market! The clam chowder soup was rich, creamy, and full of flavor, just perfect. The lobster rolls were fresh and delicious, with generous portions of tender lobster. The location added to the charm, making it a must-visit spot for seafood lovers. Quick tip: don't wait in line for the regular restaurant. Head to the kitchen where you can order online and skip the huge lines to get in. Highly recommend it!

One of my favorite chowder place here in Seattle. My Seattle trip will not be complete with my seafood bisque chowder. This is something that I look forward to all the time as part of my food trip. Looking forward for my next cup.

I ordered the marketplace chowder that had fresh crab, lobster, and scallops. It was the best chowder I have ever had! To make it more special, order it in the bread bowl. This place did not disappoint in their flavors and service. The dining area is small but they are great about everyone getting as many people seated as possible.

An absolute MUST when visiting pike place market!!! The line looks long but it moves pretty quick so its worth the wait. They have ushers helping you find a seat and the service is wonderful. We got the sourdough bread bowl chowders and I wish I had space to order more because both were super delicious. I would come back to pike place just for the chowder!!!!
