Your Guide to Authentic Regional Eats
Emmett Watson’s is the place to go when you have some time on your hands and want to wile it away over beer and seafood. A laid-back oyster bar just across the street from the Pike Place Market in a back street nook inside the Soames-Dunn Building, it can be maddening if you are an efficiency nut in a hurry. For leisurely enjoyment of oysters, clams, and mussels, or baskets of fish and chips, or wonderful soups and chowders, this brash little eatery is a Seattle treasure. There is a sunny, flower-adorned courtyard behind the building for warm-weather dining at rickety little tables, and an indoor area with small booths.
