This iconic Seattle destination is pure joy for visitors and locals alike. I'm there nearly every week shopping at food purveyor Delaurenti, picking up specialty spices at MarketSpice and buying armfuls of fresh flowers from one of the local farmers (p.s. you can too -- Swallow's Rest is stocked with a vase for just this reason!)
Consider stopping for lunch at Cafe Campagne, Le Pichet or picking up a treat at the delightful Le Panier.
