April & Jake
Things To Do
Chuck's Hop Shop Greenwood
We used to live down the street from here. It's a good place to drink beer.
Chuck's Hop Shop Seward Park
We go here a lot. It's also attached to Third Place Books, a great bookstore.
T-Mobile Park
If you are in Seattle for a while, let us take you to a Mariners game!
Bongos
A fun place to get delicious Caribbean sandwiches and pretend you're on the beach.
The Station
One of our favorite coffee shops. Jake likes their Mocha Mexicano and April loves all of their sandwiches.
Preserve and Gather
We used to go here all the time when we lived in the neighborhood. Everything they make is delicious! (It's a coffee shop.)
Ballard (Hiram M. Chittenden) Locks
Watch all the boats go through the locks! It's fun.
Q Bakery Sandwiches
The best banh mis.
Pho Bac Súp Shop
There are billion amazing pho places in Seattle; this is a very well-known one.
Pike Place Market
Duh. If you've never been, you should go.
Jules Maes Saloon
An old, divey, saloon-y bar with burgers and such.
Reuben's Brews - The Ballard Taproom
We drink Reuben's beer all the time - this is the taproom!
Seattle Public Library - Central Library
A very cool library!
Warren G. Magnuson Park
A great park - one of the many parks on Lake Washington. We go here all the time to hang out in the summer. Jake never goes into the water but April always does.
Gas Works Park
Another good park! Check out the sundial on the top of the hill.
Discovery Park
Nature! Hiking but you don't have to leave the city! You can walk the main loop in an hour and see beautiful trees and amazing views of Puget Sound.
The Museum of Flight
Planes and other things that fly!
Rainier Teriyaki
You don't have to go to this specific teriyaki place but this one is one of the best and it's just a few blocks from our house. Even if you don't go to this one, you should definitely get teriyaki somewhere!
Sea Monster Lounge
We went on our second date here.
Aladdin Gyro-Cery & Deli
A favorite college spot of Jake's.
Seattle ReCreative
April's favorite store! A creative reuse center where you can buy every type of art and craft supply secondhand.

Jake likes this record store.
