Why do I love this store so much? I love this store because it is not like anything else in town. Great selection.
Unusual designers. I always want the stuff. I WANT it. Because it is cute and it is unusual, or it is elegant and unique; it is classic and funky. You really have to not be all that into yourself, or expect the girls to work for you...because they don't. Why? I don't know? Maybe they are shy, maybe they are hungry. It doesn't really matter. Just don't expect a lot of help and work hard for yourSELF. It is a good life lesson. YOU can do it. Find beautiful clothes for yourself and feel good in them.
Pros: Nice
Cons: Staff

this is one of my favorite places in the world!!!!!!!! if you love books, this is the place for you!! this is a used bookstore,the majority of which, are in excellent condition and they also usually have multiple copies of more popular books! also, if you have books you are done with, and don't want to hang onto, you can bring them with you for cash or trade value!!!!!! so, cozy up in one of the corners, and don't be surprised if you turn around to find a furry friend rubbing up against your leg!

They have a great assortment of books and magazines. Better yet, they have UW apparel and coffee shop inside. Text books are always overpriced, but you need them. The staff is great and will help you find what you are looking for. Then shop is 2 stories and is locate in the middle of the ave. All in all, great book store!

Even back in the late nineties this place had the latest organic, natural, health food. And now, since it does a good job of following the trends, it has more selection than ever. Sometimes it doesn't have everything I need, but most times I am completely satisfied. I love the attitude of the employees and the great food. They take things out of circulation if they start to decline in quality. THAT'S good business. Their buyers taste EVERYTHING so most, if not all, products are good. And affordable delicious food is a godsend for those with simpler budgets.

More
When I'm downtown, I only watch movies here or at Cinerama; both by AMC. It might be because Pacific Place is newer and therefore nicer than other cinemas. But I love the northwest-themed atmosphere and how unique it feels compared to the typical multiplex one can get used to. For the same price as other theaters, AMC Pacific Place is the preferable choice downtown.
The only downfall is that it won't show ALL new movies coming out. New movies seem to split between here and the Regal Meridian down the street. I always pray that the movie I want to see will be here...rather than at Regal.
Pros: atmosphere, location
Cons: doesn't show all new movies

Maybe I am rude too because I have never been offended by James. Quite the opposite--I have asked him questions about my dog's health and well being that even I know are ridiculous, and he has always been polite and responsive. Besides, you are getting your dog groomed so let's focus on what matters. The shop provides a clean, safe, calm atmosphere for your dog, and the grooming is top notch. My soft coated wheaten terrier comes out looking like a soft coated wheaten terrier is supposed to look. Adrianne knows her stuff and is gentle and kind with our much loved 4 legged friend. I wouldn't take my dog anywhere else in Seattle.
Pros: Clean, safe, knowledgeable groomer
Cons: None

Since it's a used clothes (mostly) store the inventory can be good or bad, but I've had terrific luck here. I've gotten clothes from J. Crew, Banana Republic, Bebe, Lucky Jeans and more for a fraction of the normal cost and in relatively great condition. They also have a fun shoe selection, funky accessories and bags, and are a great spot when looking for a one-of-a-kind dress for under $30.
Pros: Great value
Cons: It's not assured that they have what you want in your size

This is my favorite specialty store in the Market--and not just because I am Italian! Their selection is almost overwhelming. The have all sorts of Italian imports--olive oils, canned items, pastas, even cookies. They also have a refrigerated case full of take-home goodies like lasagna, ravioli, gelato and stocks. The cheese counter is a sight to behold and has more selections than anywhere else I've seen. The also have salami, bacon, sausages, olives and all the makings of a perfect antipasto platter. The fresh ricotta is heavenly. The sales staff is really friendly and knowledgeable and you will probably need them. Upstairs they keep all of their wine, and the selection is decent for a shop of their size. Again, the staff is fantastic and will steer you toward the right bottle. You really can't go wrong with anything from this store. Also, their website has tons of recipes that will help you infuse some creativity into your meals. Shops like this make cooking and entertaining fun!
