Seattle: Raconteur At Third Place Books

Seattle’s Third Place Books was established to become a community gathering place, and it’s succeeded. The Seward Park location lives up to its task, bringing readers together with an expansive selection of new and used books, a welcoming atmosphere with a friendly and knowledgeable staff, and a stacked calendar of engaging events. Locally beloved restaurant Raconteur lies, conveniently, just beyond the cookbook section, and yes, you can peruse the shelves with beer or wine in hand. Once you sit down, you’ll find a menu of burgers, tacos, salads and lobster rolls.
