Will was fantastic! Very knowledge, friendly and fun. We all enjoyed not only all the food and drinks but the history and details about Pike Place and Seattle that Will shared. He also gave such excellent recommendations of places to eat during our stay.

    Bites of the Emerald City

    Jasmine_A, Apr 2026
    We had such a fun time on this food tour! Our guide was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and really made the experience feel personal. We especially appreciated that she went above and beyond by hanging out with us for an extra two hours—it felt less like a tour and more like spending time with a new friend. The stops we visited were great, and we enjoyed getting to try a variety of different flavors along the way. That said, we were expecting something a bit more filling—closer to a meal rather than smaller tasting portions—so that’s something to keep in mind if you come hungry. Overall, it was a really enjoyable experience with a fantastic guide, and we’re glad we went!

    Highly Recommend

    Brianna_R, Dec 2025
    I ended up being the only person on the tour, because of that it felt less like a tour and more like a friend showing me their favorite spots. I could tell how much my guide cared about the local businesses and the people behind them—he knew everyone by name and shared both their stories and the history of the market itself. Thank you, Will, for a great day and all the recommendations for the rest of my trip!

    NO Gourmet Food & Cocktails

    Sylvia_M, Oct 2025
    To start- this tour does NOT have gourmet food as advertised!! The tour guide who was supposed to do our tour was sick so Will filled in. Will did a great job to make things work, but I think it would have been best if the tour had just been cancelled. The cocktails were good, especially at Zigzag. However, the food was all fried and left my husband and me with stomach issues at the end of the night. The Rabbit was awful! I don’t know why this location was on this tour. The live music was sang by amateurs and really loud. Finally, since we started our tour at a wine bar that wasn’t on the itinerary, we never even made it to the chocolate shop. I would not recommend this tour! Save your money and creat your own tour.

    For this to be considered...

    Amanda_M, Oct 2025
    For this to be considered gourmet, I was surprised the food did not live up to that expectation. Chips and salsa/guac are great and all but it's not gourmet. The drinks were delicious, the food was not worth the money. I expected to be quite full after finishing this tour and the best I got were a few small shared appetizers.

    I had a great time...

    Kara_E, Sep 2025
    I had a great time getting to try different places outside of the normal touristy spots. The food and drink were plentiful-- and delicious! Only suggestion to have food/drinks ordered prior to getting to the restaurant. We spent A LOT of time waiting for our orders to be taken. I have been on other tours where they give the restaurants a heads up of our arrival, and they ran much smoother.

    Miai was very friendly and knowledgeable. We went to places that were not the normal tourist traps. Exposed to foods and drinks that I would not normally had and all were good

    Great experience!!!

    Do this tour - you'll love it!

    COREY_N, Jul 2025
    Our tour guide was awesome. Super friendly and did great at giving information. The restaurants and food / drinks chosen were phenomenal as well. Even though we just met the tour guide Ben, we felt like we knew him forever as he did a great job.

    Wine-Cocktail Tour of Seattle

    James_G, Jul 2025
    Met with Ben (my tour guide) and Maia (another group' guide) right on time. We wound up combining both tours as it was only 3 of us. We visited some of the listed stops (some were closed), on my planned tour (Craft Cocktail Gourmet Food) and of the other tour (a wine tour). Glad we got to mix it up a bit. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable about the tour and the area. Enjoyed hanging out with them as much as being guided by them. I would do the tour again just to go to the 'missed' stops and see if we passed on a grand opportunity. All in all, good tour with cool folks. Thanks

    Seattle Market Hidden Gems

    Excellent out-of-the-way stops with good narratives! An overall fun time & new experiences in Seattle!!

    Great day in Seattle

    Jade did a great job. The cocktails were delicious and interesting, and the food was also delicious. Portions were not overly generous but were definitely adequate. Would highly recommend this tour!

    Jennifer_M, Feb 2025
    Jade was an awesome guide. It was just my husband and I and we had such a great time. We visited 3 amazing places with very different vibes and had awesome food and cocktails at each. Definitely a great evening!

    Great food and cocktails

    Catie_F, Jan 2025
    Great food and cocktails in places I hadn't been to before. I enjoyed the tour with Will and the other people in the group.

    Don’t waste your time.

    Christopher_M, Dec 2024
    Not worth the time or Money. Not informative or interesting. Very little to do with Seattle. We could have been anywhere. Your guide was awkward and unorganized.

    Definitely Recommend

    Kevin_F, Nov 2024
    This was a great experience. They chose some of the best food and great drinks. I also enjoyed the host: he was a foodie and very very knowledgeable of all the stuff we were trying out.

    Amazing experience!

    Abby_F, Nov 2024
    Lola was an amazing tour guide. Such a fun way to try local cuisine and cocktails. Felt like I was spending the evening with old friends.

    Excellent sampling of Seattle

    Ward_M, Oct 2024
    We highly recommend this tour. From the Virginia Inn, to the Rabbit Box, to the Lonely Siren with stops along 1st and Pike’s Market during the excursion. Sam was wonderfully attentive. He clearly enjoys Seattle’s diverse history and culture making the tour an even richer experience. Thank you Sam, we plan to book this tour again with our daughter.

    Seattle has some great hidden gems

    Connie_V, Oct 2024
    Great tour guide. Lots of info about Seattle and area. Lots of recommendations on where to eat, what to eat, and drink. I wouldn’t have found or tried the places we went to but so glad we went to each. Cocktails were unique and wonderful

    Amazing tour and tour guide

    Lea_N, Oct 2024
    I had an amazing experience with this tour. I have been doing food tours in different cities but this was my first time doing a craft cocktail tour Will is an awesome guide. Will made sure that I am not out of place since I went solo. The drinks and food were so delicious. I will definitely recommend this tour with friends.

    Such a fun tour !

    Daniel_Q, Oct 2024
    This was such a wonderful tour! Jade texted me beforehand to confirm where to meet up and see if we had an allergies. She was so friendly and a great host! we all loved every restaurant she chose and the cocktails and food. I would definitely recommend!

    Definitely worth doing this food and drink tour!

    Angela_V, Oct 2024
    Sam was so good to give the history of the restaurants. He did a great job telling us about the different dishes and the drinks that were paired with the food. He definitely knows the ingredients of not just the food and drinks that we enjoyed but others that we asked about.

    Nice experience

    Heidi_H, Sep 2024
    Will wad super nice, food and drinks were great. The only thing would have preferred more interactive discussion about Deattle, restaurants, etc.

    Fun Food Tour/ Adventures with Woody

    Carol_F, Aug 2024
    Woody took us to the best places for food and cocktails. Everything was delicious. Woody was very knowledgeable in Seattle History. We only had one other couple with us, so we had individualized attention, which was wonderful. Thank you for a great tour. Carol and Lauren from Illinois!

    Skipped certain stops, but overall good food but somewhat overpriced.

    Hailey_S, Aug 2024
    Overall the experience was pretty nice, the tour guide was entertaining and fun to talk to, the only issue I hold is that we didn’t stop for lobster rolls or the chocolates at the end. We did stop at 3 places and got some good food and cocktails but I was really looking forward to the lobster rolls. I did feel like we didn’t get our moneys worth because of this especially since it was $270 ( for 2 people) for about 5 appetizers and 3 cocktails in which 2 out of the three were shared with my partner ( and some were shared with the group). Overall the food and cocktails were good but I am slightly disappointed if I’m honest.

    Ben_M, Aug 2024
    The guides were very friendly and very helpful. The first and third stops were extremely good, both food and drinks. We really enjoyed the time. Our only complaint is the second stop was way too hot, like a sauna, with no AC. Hard to enjoy the food or drinks. The guides also said that wasn't normal. Great gluten-free options. Overall, we would do it again, just double checking that all the stops were air conditioned.

    Response from Host, Sep 2024

    Thank you for the feedback. We choose our stops based on the quality of the tastings
