    I visited Lowell's with a coworker for a late lunch and I'm SO glad we did. You order at the front and choose one of the three levels to sit at, the third with a beautiful water view. The gentleman taking our order was so kind! Coworker got the fish and chips and I, the salmon Cesar. Both were a huge portions and very tasty but the salmon was the star of the show. Locally caught and sold in pike place market, it was some of the freshest salmon I've ever eaten. Truly melt in your mouth, and the price for each meal wasn't exorbitant. I'll definitely be visiting again next time I'm in Seattle

    Salmon Chowder Bread Bowl

    Lowell's is a must stop for incredible clam or salmon chowder in a bread bowl. It's a casual vibe inside Pike's Place where you order at a cash register and then your order is brought to your seat wherever you find one. The bread bowl was soft and fluffy which was the perfect addition to my salmon chowder. Great quality and lots of pieces of fish that was a perfect lunch on a chilly and rainy day. The clam chowder is also incredible and a staple of Seattle.

    Lowell's is a must-stop if you're in the market! We had a beautiful table tucked into a corner overlooking the harbor and outstanding service from Tyler--friendly, attentive, and full of great recommendations. Breakfast was delicious. My husband had the classic combo with eggs, hash browns, link sausage, and toast--perfect comfort food. I ordered a huge bagel topped with herbed cream cheese, king salmon, pickled onions, and capers... absolutely fantastic. And bonus: unlimited hot coffee --always a win. It's tucked right inside the marketplace, and we actually found it thanks to a suggestion from our server at Alder & Ash the night before. So glad we listened! Would I come back? Heck yeah! Next time, I'm trying the crab omelette for sure

    Best calamari I have ever had. Fresh and delicious. The concept of ordering and finding your own seat is hectic but it worked out for our party of 6.

    Sat at the bar. For a birthday cocktail. A special chai martini. Served iced and so good. The wonderful bartender JoJo provided excellent service. And it's a bar, so the ambiance was fun. A gentleman sang happy birthday to my sister and me. And people were overall happy here. An iconic Pike Market place. Maybe next time I'll eat some food. SYOY!

    Nothing like a bowl of CLAM chowder in the morning for breakfast along with corned beef hash, eggs, and hashbrowns. Service was awesome but the view on the 2nd floor was better than awesome!

    Prime location - inside Pike Place Market! We needed a drink and a quick bite while we toured the area. We visited around 4pm on a Friday and the place was not packed. Definitely a change from a previous visit I had last in Sept 5 years ago. The VIEW gave this place the 4th star. Try to get the window seat as much as possible if you visit this place. Ordered the chowder - just mid. Nothing special and definitely had it better. Wish the bread bowl was toasted. Calamari - small portion - was good and so was the fries. This place is one of those Order, Pay then get your food type. Menu offers many choices. They have a bar on the second floor and the drinks were great. Be prepared to pay more for your cocktails :/ The bartender was nice and welcoming.

    The place was Busy for a Thursday afternoon! Only place we could find seating was on the third floor. Pretty views but was a little cold for my liking. The table near us complained they were freezing also. That being said, the food was solid. I had a chicken sandwich with bacon and Swiss . It was huge and ate the entire thing! Hubby ate the fish tacos which were flavorful if a bit messy.

    Chowder was good, nice and creamy but not as good as pike place chowder, got the crab omelette, paid 40 bucks for an underwhelming omelette, you would expect an omelette the size of the plate and stuffed to the gills for 40 bucks, not worth it at all, toast and hash browns and bacon were good, better off going somewhere else, you're just paying for the view honestly

    Drinks Only- As we were meandering through Pike's market on a Sunday, we decided we wanted to pop in for a drink or two. The bartender mentioned mimosas and Bloody Mary's so my ears perked up. They had an unusual Bloody Mary with salmon, so as we were in Seattle, I felt that I should try this version. I was expecting a piece of salmon on my drink, but rather the salmon was within the mix- interesting.....not sure I would order this again. I think I would stick with a regular bloody mary. Pricing wise, not bad for being at the market. Netherless the bartender was very friendly. And very kind to address all the questions of the tourist stopping in. The view from the bar of the water was beautiful. The bar on the second floor is quite small. If eating, there are plenty of seats among the three floors. Note lots of stairs....to the second and third floor.

    Seafood salad, Lowells Clam Chowder

    A Local's Favorite Spot for the Best Views & Fresh Seafood! Whenever friends or family visit from out of state, Pike Place Market is the first stop on the list. There's just something about the hustle and bustle that makes you feel the heartbeat of Seattle. As locals, we've been coming to Lowell's (established in 1957!) for years. It's a classic for a reason--the history is deep and the views are unbeatable. Pro-Tip: Choosing the Right Floor The menus and service styles actually differ by floor, so keep this in mind: * 1st & 3rd Floors (Self-Service): Best for a casual bite. This is where you grab the classics like Fish & Chips and Clam Chowder. You order at the counter on the 1st floor--if you do, head straight to the 3rd floor for the best view! * 2nd Floor (Full Service & Bar): I usually head here when I'm without the kids. The menu is different from the first floor, and you can skip the long lines and the hassle of carrying your own food. The Food: On this visit, we enjoyed a bottle of wine along with: * Seafood Salad: The salmon was incredibly fresh and the portion was very generous. * Clam Chowder Bread Bowl: It's a classic. Consistently delicious and hits the spot every single time. * Steamed Clams & Garlic Bread: The clams were so plump and fresh! But the garlic bread on top was the real star. It was perfectly toasted and so flavorful--ideal for soaking up all that delicious clam broth. Service: Our server was lovely and incredibly attentive! However, the busgirl was quite rude, which was a bit of a bummer. But despite that, the food and the scenery made it a great afternoon.

    Lowells Clam Chowder & Salmon Chowder
    Shana N.

    Clam Chowder: 6.5/10 mid. Unfortunately, the chowder of the day wasn't salmon which is my fav. Fish and Chips: 7.5/10. Fish was ok, fries were good, tartar sauce was great. Calamari: 8/10. Calamari was good, sauce was ok. I enjoyed the calamari with the tartar sauce from the fish and chips. Service & Ambiance: 10/10. We sat at the top level where The Crab Pot was. We were brought our food from both restaurants and the window view was amazing

    Place has a great view, service was good. Staff were friendly, beer was cold. The food was nothing to brag about. Pretty much no taste I guess it would be like having COVID and eating here..

    There's not a ton of Filipino brunch places in Houston (as far as I know of), so I was very excited…read moreto try this restaurant out. It's located in a very convenient and easily accessible location near Pike Place. It was literally along the same street as our hotel, so my husband and I just walked over to it for breakfast. I highly recommend getting there early because the lines do get really long. It is so worth waiting in line for though because the food is incredible. The customer service is also incredible too! Everyone is very friendly and efficient. I would say the food comes out fairly fast. The restaurant itself is very casual and is such a great spot to grab brunch. My husband and I ordered these items: -combo-silog -stack of ube pancakes We shared these items, and we were barely able to finish everything. The ube pancakes were so delicious and had the perfect flavor or ube. I will say a stack is probably a little too much for just 2 people haha. But I'm really glad that we shared. The rice that came with the combo-silog was also really good and stood out to me. The quality of the food was so good, and you can just tell how well-oiled this place is ran by the staff. We absolutely would come back again and try other menu items!

I read the reviews saying how this place has long lines, but figured a Friday morning on a I guess typical and cold Friday morning in May would show otherwise. Currently starting this review at the 34 minute wait time mark, just four people ahead of us at the door, at least outside. Ok, it's now the day after.. 40 minutes to get to inside where you order and they immediately seat you... Everyone was great, bustling business with lots of photos, magnets and other fun stuff around. Food was AMAZING; photos don't do this place justice...but the calamansie juice was like i remembered it from my last trip to metro Manila; the lumpia was yummy , hubby loved his chicken silog and Irish coffee, and my Ube pancakes were PHENOMENAL and kept me satiated for the entire day!!! Will definitely return when I'm here again!!!

    What a secret gem of a place! Just tucked in from a bustling Denny street!…read more We started out with some cappuccino and iced latte, and they were lovely. They served the coffees with a little shortbread cookie, and these little details really elevated the whole experience. Also, the cappuccino was so foamy, and it hit the spot immediately. The breakfast menu was also fantastic. The TPC Breakfast plate included sausage, potatoes, bacon, bread, and some scrambled eggs. There also was an option to add Beecher's cheese on the eggs, and I'd say it was totally worth it. Most importantly, the Dutch baby was as good as they'd advertised. It comes out on a piping hot skillet which kept the dessert warm till the end of the meal. The service was very quick even though they were entirely booked out for the time we were there for. I appreciated the patience from the servers and their helpful directions in picking the menu items. I will warn you that we had to reserve our spot months in advance. This is probably because the restaurant is great but pretty limited in seating space. However, it was definitely worth the wait, so don't be discouraged. I highly recommend trying it out at least once. All in all, highly recommend! Please go try Tilikum Place Cafe!

    We tried all three Dutch babies - classic, sweet, and savory - and they didn't disappoint. The…read moresavory-sweet combo was the highlight, especially if you enjoy contrasting flavors. The baked eggs, however, were just okay - nothing particularly good. The ambiance was cozy and nice, right in downtown Seattle. However, be prepared: the wait can be long, and once you're done, they'll need the table, as there's usually a line. Overall, it's worth a visit - just make a reservation and come for the Dutch babies. I was told there are seasonal Dutch babies so try again sometime in June maybe.

Plenty of sitting areas and window views too. I got lucky to seat by a window to just enjoy the rainy view. Their Salmon toast was delicious! I asked for the cream cheese on the side because I cant have lactose but I still wanted to try their dish with all ingredients. So I dipped the slices a few times to try it all and omg its so perfectly paired. I totally recommend it! The coffee was ok. I had their gingersnap latte seasonal drink. I asked with only 1 pump of sweet and alternative milk. I was not impressed. I prefer black coffee haha but if you enjoy sweet drinks you may enjoy this one. I still finished it, so it wasn't terrible just not something I'd order again. Also, Idk why my coffee was served on a to-go cup. Maybe that took some of the joy of it?

Within walking distance from the convention center and a couple of the hotels in the area.
