Crocodile Café
One of the best rock clubs in the country and a Seattle institution, this Belltown space helped launch the grunge and alt-rock scenes. It has showcased virtually every important Seattle band during the grunge years and since (including, of course, Nirvana). It closed in 2007, but has been rescued and is now once again home to some of the city’s best indie-rock shows, whether local or touring bands. The attached cafe also serves a decent greasy-spoon breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Velodrome at Marymoor Park
Marymoor Park boasts the only velodrome in the Pacific Northwest. You’ll need to be a trained velodrome rider before you can get on the track, but the untrained can watch the exciting races, which are held Monday, Wednesday and Friday mid-May to September. Admission to the amateur races is free Monday and Wednesday; when the pros hit the track on Friday, admission costs $3.

Hale's makes fantastic beer, notably its ambrosial Cream Ale. Its flagship brewpub in Fremont feels like a business-hotel lobby, but it's worth a stop. There is a self-guided tour near the entrance.
