Freeze Beat the Seattle
The short, gray days of a Seattle winter might tempt you to stay indoors until spring. But Seattle offers plenty of reasons to venture out, regardless of the weather. Spend a rainy day in a museum, take advantage of largely empty hiking trails, or enjoy a holiday celebration to chase away the seasonal doldrums.
Act Like a Tourist
During the warmer months, Seattle’s popular tourist spots can be overrun by visitors. With cold weather come fewer crowds, shorter (or non-existent) lines, and more time to appreciate all there is to take in. Learn about the area’s rich pop culture history at MOPOP, browse the stalls at Pike Place Market, or visit one of Seattle’s other world-class museums. If it’s been a while since you ascended the Space Needle, there’s no better time than a cold, clear winter day to see the snow-capped Cascade and Olympic mountain ranges.
6 LI FEST Y LE NORTH W EST | W I NTER 2026
Go Snowshoeing
If you can’t beat the cold weather, embrace it! Many winter sports activities, like skiing, snowboarding, and snowmobiling, are expensive and require some practice before they become enjoyable. Not so with snowshoeing. You can do it just about anywhere there is snow, and affordable rental equipment is easy to find. Pack a few snacks and a thermos of your favorite warm beverage, find a relatively flat spot to explore (Gold Creek Pond is great for beginners), and have an adventure.
Take a Hike
Make an Indoor Playdate If you’ve ever wanted to try your hand at axe throwing, Blade & Timber is the perfect place to start. When you rent a lane, you’ll get a coaching session as well as access to delicious snacks and cocktails. Flatstick Pub is the ideal location if you’d prefer to challenge friends or family to a spirited round of indoor minigolf. Are board games more your speed? Mox Boarding House is your spot for game nights. . BladeAndTimber.com . MoxBoardingHouse.com . FlatstickPub.com
Winter might not seem like the most ideal time to go hiking, but with the views from Rattlesnake Ledge, even rain and cold temperatures won’t dampen your spirits. Just a short drive from Seattle, this four-mile trail recently underwent improvements that make it traversable even if there is snow on the ground. Hearty hikers are rewarded with breathtaking views of forests, lakes, and snow-tipped foothills. Safety tip: bring crampons or microspikes in case conditions are muddy or slick.
Explore Local Coffee Shops The Pacific Northwest may be infamous for our rainy winters, but we’re famous for our fantastic coffee culture. Whether you’re craving a mouthwatering mocha, a luscious latte, or a classic drip, there’s a local coffee shop that is eager to provide it. Check out the list of cozy coffee shops and cafes in this issue. You’re sure to find one nearby where spending a lazy Sunday morning or a blustery afternoon is pure pleasure.
Celebrate the Season
Between November and January, there are dozens of holiday traditions and celebrations–and Seattle provides a way to mark nearly all of them. From Christmas markets and Candy Cane Lane to lanterns at Woodland Park Zoo and solstice sunrise gatherings, there’s something for everyone. Be sure to check out this issue’s Local Happenings for our favorite holiday events. W I N DERM ERE RE A L ESTATE | W I NTER 2026 7
discovering local
Coffee is woven into the fabric of the Pacific Northwest, but the region’s best cafes offer far more than a caffeine fix. From small-batch roasters and historic neighborhood institutions to Scandinavian-inspired hideaways and community gathering places, these independently owned coffee shops prove that every great cup comes with a story.
MULTIPLE EASTSIDE LOCATIONS
CAMANO ISLAND
Mercurys Coffee Co.
Camano Island Coffee Roasters
There are coffee shops where you grab your drink and leave, and then there are places where you settle into a comfortable chair and lose track of time. Mercurys is decidedly the latter. The multiple “Best of Western Washington” award-winning cafe pairs expertly roasted coffee with warm hospitality, making it the perfect refuge on a chilly winter morning. Whether you’re catching up with friends or escaping the rain with a latte, you’ll quickly understand why locals return again and again.
If you enjoy knowing exactly where your coffee comes from, Camano Island Coffee Roasters is worth the trip. The small-batch roaster focuses exclusively on organic, shade-grown, fair-trade beans and believes exceptional coffee begins with caring for both farmers and the environment. Stop by the tasting room to sample their blends before taking home a bag for your own morning ritual. Even better, join their Coffee of the Month club to have fresh whole-bean coffee or pods delivered to your door every month.
æ Mercurys.com ANACORTES
Moka Joe Coffee Roasters The rich aroma of freshly roasted coffee greets you before you even reach the door at Moka Joe. Inside, the cozy cafe offers the kind of relaxed atmosphere that invites you to linger over a steaming mug of coffee while enjoying a homemade scone, or try one of the cafe’s signature espresso milkshakes made with Lopez Island Creamery ice cream. Every cup is brewed from organic, fair-trade beans roasted just steps away, reflecting a decades-long commitment to supporting coffee-growing communities around the world. æ MokaJoe.com 8 LI FEST Y LE NORTH W EST | W I NTER 2026
æ CamanoIslandCoffee.com BAINBRIDGE ISLAND
Pegasus Coffee Few coffee shops can claim to have helped shape the Northwest coffee scene. Founded after its owner apprenticed under coffee pioneer Alfred Peet in Berkeley, California, Pegasus was one of the Seattle area’s first shops to serve espresso drinks. In the decades since, Pegasus has been roasting exceptional coffee and serving as a Bainbridge Island gathering place. The ivy-covered cafe still captures the charm of a classic European coffee house, making it just as inviting today as it was more than 40 years ago. æ PegasusCoffee.com
POULSBO
SEATTLE / INTERNATIONAL DISTRICT
Caffe Cocina
Hood Famous Cafe + Bar
Part neighborhood café, part artisan roastery, Caffe Cocina’s downtown Poulsbo location has become a favorite stop for locals seeking both outstanding coffee and hearty fare. Direct-trade organic beans are roasted locally, while the kitchen turns out everything from pastries and breakfast favorites to smoothies and açai bowls. The welcoming atmosphere exudes warmth, making it an appealing spot for conversations with friends or family. The drive-through location in Finn Hill is perfect for grabbing coffee to go.
Seattle’s coffee culture meets Filipino heritage at Hood Famous Cafe + Bar, where traditional espresso drinks share the menu with ube lattes, pandan creations, and beans sourced exclusively from the Asia-Pacific region. The cafe’s partnerships with growers throughout the Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar, and neighboring countries make every cup both distinctive and deeply connected to the people who produce it. Try a latte with their housemade syrup for a colorful treat that will brighten even the grayest winter day.

Café Hagen
Victrola Coffee Roasters
Inspired by the Scandinavian tradition of hygge, Café Hagen invites guests to slow down and savor life’s simple pleasures. Elegant pastries, thoughtfully prepared coffee, and airy, light-filled interiors create an atmosphere that feels equal parts Copenhagen and Pacific Northwest. Whether you’re stopping in for weekend brunch or escaping the weekday afternoon rush, it’s an easy place to settle in, lose track of time, and embrace hygge. æ CafeHagen.com
Victrola helped usher in Seattle’s modern coffee movement, but it has never lost its neighborhood soul. Housed in a beautifully restored 1920s building at the base of Capitol Hill, Victrola’s showcase location is home to a working roastery, coffee education space, and plenty of room to linger with a book, catch up on work, or mingle with friends and neighbors. The vintage, Jazz Era-inspired atmosphere pairs perfectly with some of the region’s finest expertly roasted coffee. æ VictrolaCoffee.com
