Good Drinks

1. Big Picture

Neighborhood: Belltown

recommended a couple good places to eat before the showing.    The drinks are reasonable, $7.50 for a cocktail (the Key Lime pie one is delicious) although the selection is not huge.  Popcorn was tasty...

3. Sun Liquor

Neighborhood: Capitol Hill

3. Hooverville Bar

Neighborhood: SODO

I love this place, 5$ cab ride from my house. Good taps, good drinks, peanuts, really great bartenders who play cool music.  Nice big tables to accommodate a large group of thirsty friends...

4. Grey Gallery &…

5. The Bottleneck…

Neighborhood: Central District
