Rules

Please read the full rules wiki here. Below are highlights of our most important rules:

  1. Be good: We aim to make the Seattle reddit a friendly place for everyone, so treat your fellow humans with respect. Content that contains racism, sexism, homophobia, harassment, threats, or other toxic content will be removed, regardless of popularity or relevance - and may lead to warnings or bans. We often moderate based on severity - and while that is subjective, flagrant violations (hate speech, slurs, threats, etc.) will result in immediate bans.

  2. Follow reddiquette: While reddiqutte is "informal" by reddit standards, we have a firm stance on a few aspects, namely: Don't be rude, please be respectful to others. Don't editorialize headlines, please title your posts appropriately. Do not post private information about others, illegal content, or misinformation. Please keep post comments on-topic. See more details on Reddiquette or read the full text on our official rules wiki.

  3. Keep Posts Seattle Related: Posts must be relevant to Seattle or the greater Seattle area.

  4. No harassment / witch hunts: Do not create posts or comments to harass other users, incite witch hunts, or share photos of others without their consent.

  5. No for-sale, classifieds, or job postings: You're welcome to give away free tickets or unused items, but any sales, classified ads, or job postings should be posted to r/sealist or r/seajobs, respectively.

  6. No crowdfunding or surveys: Do not share crowdfunding sites (kickstarter, gofundme, etc) or any other donation links (sorry, this is a blanket rule out of fairness). Also, please do not use r/Seattle to post surveys or polls. You may ask questions, but targeted information gathering is prohibited.

  7. No spam, ads, or promotional content: Do not post anything that is purely advertising or promotional content, or if you stand to profit from the content. Original content from artists and creators is acceptable, so long as it is relevant and not purely promotional.

  8. Limit Reposts: Please search before posting! Please don't post duplicates of articles that are currently or have recently been discussed.

  9. Due Diligence / FAQ / Weekly Threads Please don't post questions here without searching first and giving us specific details. We are not a human search engine or travel agents - we have a wiki, searchable posts and flairs, and a discord with tons of helpful folks. Google is your friend. Posts lacking these details or that that can be easily searched on the sub/internet will be removed - feel free to discuss these in our weekly threads, on our discord, or post in /r/AskSeattle.

  10. Improper Missing Persons, Pets, or Stolen Property Post: Lost / missing / found pets or property posts must include location last seen and pictures - please do not post pictures of flyers unless they were created by you.
    These posts should not include personal contact information - all stolen property posts must include police report info - and all posted contact information must be to contact public agencies only.

  11. Standards For Posts About Crime: Posts about criminal incidents on reddit should be considered for the purpose of public knowledge (active incidents, disruptions, news events, etc). Any post that claims to be witness to a crime, or with accusations of criminal activity must provide a police report, article, or other substantial evidence of the incident in order for it to be considered for approval. Contact mods to provide this information privately.

Seeking private dining restaurant with specific accommodations

Hello, I'm looking for a restaurant with private dining to host a small (16 people max) wedding reception in January. I have searched every list of recommendations I can find, but I haven't found anywhere I like yet. My ideal restaurant would have:

  1. Good track record of accommodating uncommon food allergies
  2. Simple/easily customizable meals to fit the needs of autistic guests
  3. Not more than around $40 per person
  4. Private dining area where 16 people could all sit around the same table
  5. LGBT friendly and easily wheelchair accessible
  6. Offers dessert

I am open to locations anywhere between Downtown Seattle and South Everett.

Thank you for reading!

Musical Theatre Dance Classes in Greenwood?

I’m still relatively new to the area and don’t have a car (the buses have been awesome!). Are there by any chance any musical theatre dance classes around? Or … like … a professional who wants to start one? 😆

Coffee shops with social/lively environments?

I like to explore new coffee shops to work remotely. You'd think I would be asking for the opposite type of environment but I frequent some small cafes near my house that are usually pretty empty during the day and I'm wondering if there are any coffee shops that have a social/community vibe to them! Maybe to meet people/cowork or people watch/just be in a different environment in general! thank you

Parking at Fred Meyers

So, I’m from Omaha, NE and I moved here in July. I was hoping to get away from shitty drivers and parking. I mean we have a whole Facebook page about how shitty our drivers are. Anyway, I’m at Fred Meyer and I see this lady park next to a Tesla and I mean the Tesla is close to the line, but this lady did NOT have to park like this. Why? Why do people park like this here? Cause this isn’t the only place I’ve seen this bullshit. In a city where there are a lot of people, this irritates me so much. I won’t lie, I stared her down, because it is so unnecessary to do this.

Also, just venting, idc about any responses… tbh.

School lunches

My partner and I are deciding where to buy a house in the Seattle or east side area (we currently rent). We want to get somewhere with a decent school for our future kids. When we've looked at school lunch programs, everything looks bad. It doesn't seem healthy or something that kids like.

For example, here's Salmon Bay's lunch from this Friday:

- Milk

- Seasonal fruit & veg

- yogurt

No photos are provided.

Northshore school district (Bothell) posts photos of their meals to instagram each week but they look really sad. It's always raw carrots, brocolli, an apple, and a sad looking entree. The real food is going to be worse than the instagram versions. The kids on their Instagram also have the fakest smiles where you can tell they dislike the food.

Lake Washington school district's menu sounds like more variety but it's still hard to tell if it's good: https://lakewashingtonsd.nutrislice.com/menu/juanita-elementary-school/lunch/2024-12-15

What do parents around here do? Is there a school district or private school that has a decent food program? It seems to me like we'd just have to make lunch for the kid every day so they have something healthy and don't go hungry. My partner grew up in a different country with schools that had good lunch programs and I grew up being forced by my parents to make my own lunch.

Felt christmas ornaments (last year's Seattle Christmas Market)

Last year there was a Master Felter at the Seattle Christmas market at Seattle Center and my wife and I bought some felt tree ornaments. We didn't see him there this year, does anyone know who this was or if he's local? Trying to buy some more. Thanks!

Any word on ORCA cards in Apple Wallet (iOS)?

It’s been on Android since June, but there haven’t been any updates from Sound Transit about iOS support.

Does anyone have the inside scoop here?

Seattle Boulder Project

Helloooo! I recently decided to get back into rock climbing after a two year hiatus and got a membership at Seattle Boulder Project. I’m always looking to make new friends and wanted to see if anybody would be interested in hitting the gym with me!

What if a small amount of dog poop ends up in my yard waste?

I’m cleaning up a neglected corner of the yard and struggling. I pick up and bag dog poop for the garbage normally, but with this corner getting basically all the leaves piled up, it’s hard to know for sure that there’s absolutely no dog poop in there at all.

Should that section of the yard waste go in the regular garbage to avoid contaminating the city composting system? Or is doing my best to ensure the leaves are (almost/pretty much) poop-free enough?

Walked a Blind guy to Target

Was waiting by the Cross walk heading to the Northgate target when a two older gentlemen approached me.

One older gentleman, wearing a wool cap, asked me if target was just this way. And I said yes. Im Heading there.

The next moment he's leaned his fellow old person on my shoulder and said 'he'll get you there'.

This is when I noticed the other old man had a white cane. Oh shit he's blind. And literally wobbly on my shoulder. Looking around the old man in the wool hat was no where to be seen.

So....I walked the blind guy to Target with me. Where I found out he was going shopping with a friend of his. Who has a dog.

Mostly the conversation the small way to target was about smells and directions

And when I got him to target I saw his friend. Said her name and pointed him in the right direction. Quickly leaving as I discovered her dog was a seeing eye dog

I'm very happy to have somehow been a vehicle to make a blind date happen.

But the entire shopping trip i just felt angry that the other old dude had basically just tossed a fairly disabled person on a complete stranger without even clarifying that I was safe in any way.

Who the fuck does that?

Anyways. I hope their shopping trip went well.

Please help: moved here from out of state and just got the worst haircut of my life from a high end salon

Need help :

First she cut off 6 inches instead of 2 inches and my layers are so horrible and choppy. They don’t blend at all and not even my Dyson can hide how bad they look.

Please please send me salon recs from someone who specializes in layers. I had beautiful long layered hair cut more V style and now i look like a boy from the 80s who cut his own bangs.

Side note: why is it so horribly difficult to find good salons here??

Beacon Hill Light rail pigeon

I didn’t get a pic, but we were in the Beacon Hill light rail station and saw a pigeon inside, and I was confused how it got there- did it take the lift? Fly through the tunnel? Carried?!

Any how- the security guard chimed in and said that the pigeon has been in the station for nearly a year.

Why do the rapid line busses (H and C) not have closer stops to the stadiums?

I don't mind the walk, but seeing a show at wamu that ends at 2am is so cold and I always thought they could move the stop like 3-4 blocks closer.
