Lonely Planet review for Central Saloon
It may be two years younger than the official Oldest Bar in Seattle, the nearby Merchant, but the Central isn’t exactly new and shiny. More of a locals’ hangout than an object of historical interest, this long, narrow joint makes grody bathrooms and blah food seem charming, by virtue of cheap suds, friendly barkeeps and a comfortable, unfussy vibe. Live music most nights means that anyone who disapproves of metal should get in and out fairly early.
