A craftsman on Queen Anne is the perfect match for this welcoming yarn shop. Overcrowded in a way that inspires an I-must-touch-it-all outlook, you’ll always find something new amongst Hilltop’s merchandise. An assortment of classes, a library (literally!) of books, and a bench full of knitting needles ensure that you can find all you need for your project - help with a new technique, the pattern, the yarn, the tools to do your work.

Sparkle Cleaners is everything a dry cleaner should be: clean, friendly, efficient, and no frills. Possessing an ability to get rid of stains which has clearly helped them stay in business, they even have their name in neon lights. Family-owned (or at the least, feeling family-owned), this is a reliable establishment with many repeat customers.

Acorn Street is jam-packed with yarns from around the world. They carry a wide selection of fibers, and a wide selection of prices. Their classes are one of the best values in town (perhaps a fair trade for being tucked around a table with little room to breathe). Most importantly, Acorn Street has every pattern and pattern book you could want, and it is extremely likely that they will have exactly the yarn you need for the pattern you find.

The knowledge that I can rent any movie I can think of is ingrained in me. I know that if a film has been released, either in the United States or elsewhere, the odds are in my favor that Scarecrow will have it. Popular/well-marketed enough to have a video guide that only covers a blip in their collection, this video store is as much a reference library as it is a movie lover’s haven.

Picture a lunch of the perfect cornmeal-crusted onion rings, a chicken sandwich complimented with sweet red onions and fire-roasted Anaheim peppers, and a chocolate mint shake. Picture your companion’s lunch: a hamburger augmented with blue cheese and crisp bacon, French fries with just the right texture, and sparkling lemonade. Picture again the very best versions of this lunch that you can imagine, and you’ll find yourself imagining Red Mill.

Columbia City residents must share Tutta Bella with the rest of the city (a Wallingford location is in the works), and they do so gracefully. Filled with a mix of neighborhood families and people discovering Neapolitan pizza for the first time, Tutta Bella is always bustling. From the complimentary wine to the waxed twine game for kids, there’s something to do from the very beginning. One piece of advice: try a salad pizza – it’s incredible, a perfect combination of crisp, salty crust with salad (generously dressed).

This gem of a shop (pun intended) in Queen Anne is magical and breathtaking. Filled with glass, gems, and metal, the shelves house a phenomenal selection of jewelry. The staff is knowledgeable, fun, and willing to help customers find the piece that is just right. They also possess the ability to transfix things – replacing lost pieces from a broach, for instance, or turning clip-on earrings into pierced studs.
