Pacific Place
Seattle’s best-quality boutique mall feels a bit like the lobby of an upscale hotel – it’s cylindrical, and the total lack of that hectic shopping-mall vibe makes it very pleasant to walk around. Clothiers include J Crew, Club Monaco and BCBG. The large stores of Restoration Hardware and Williams-Sonoma are fun to look around in. Take a moment to gape in the window at Tiffany & Co or saunter inside for a special gift. The mall’s top level features a movie theater, a pub and a couple of restaurants. This is also where you’ll find the nicest public restrooms in downtown Seattle.

Westlake Center
This ‘boutique mall’ – also the starting point for the Monorail – has turned into a landmark, partly because of its location and the fact that its concrete patio and steps make a nice gathering point. It’s somehow heartening to see ragtag groups of antiwar protesters (and an inordinate number of cops) rallying in front of such a monument to the big American dollar. Inside you’ll find shops like Fossil watches, LUSH and Made in Washington. Local stores include an outlet of Fireworks, which offers inexpensive arty products by regional craftspeople – they make great gifts.
