April 25, 2011 - Didja Know...?

While some buildings can be remodeled and used for purposes different than what they were originally built for others will always be what they are.  The Pacific Inn Pub in Seattle's Wallingford neighborhood has been a house of suds since at least 1941.  At that time the bar was the "Square Deal Tavern", about 1990 it became the "Pacific Inn Pub".  As with any old neighborhood drinking establishments, one might find the space cramped and old, the food inconsistently good, the staff consistently interesting and the beer always cold. 

If you live in Seattle, or are planning a visit, you might want to check out Peter Andrijesky's Project K-Bar.  This organized drinking project started in February of 2006.  Mr. Andrijesky's provided a listing of hundreds of bars he's imbibed at in Seattle.  His project includes a section on Seattle's oldest bars - Pacific Inn Pub being one of those.  So, if you've been to the Little Red Hen, the J&M, the Tractor, the Re-Bar, the Double Header, the Comet Tavern, the Latona Pub or the Red Door you should stop on by http://www.peterga.com/ and check out Project K-Bar.  It will improve your "Didja know...?" IQ.
