The waterfront is always my undoing. I love being on the water and people watching. This time though due to C-19 the place was ghost like. It didnt help that the entire pier was mostly shut down due to repairs and modernization. It still was fun to visit and never miss it when I am there.

Took the water taxi across to Alki to have dinner at Saltys visiting from Phoenix, Arizona great/best view of the Seattle skyline. Will return soon, loved it!

The piers of Seattle are filled with docks, restaurants, and shops...all of which are worth a visit. Nearby parking is available. Take a ferry to an island in Puget Sound, taste the well prepared seafood, or shop for you favorite sweatshirt. It is all great fun

From restaurants, fresh veggies,fruits gifts ,art fresh seafood this place has it all ,totally enjoyed visiting

Sad tothat the pier has collapsed..But.the city has done a great job containing it.Look forward to post covi fun :)

Tourists from all over stop here. Lots of shops and plenty of out door seating to enjoy a snack, people watch or just take a break. Remember Seattle is hilly, so lots of exercise if you walk.

One of my favorite places to visit. The pier, the public market, and many wonderful shops and attractions for you to stop, linger, and enjoy. You can spend the whole day here. And on a nice day when the weather permits, do take the bay cruise, you wil enjoy it.

The Argosy cruise trip was great! Some fantastic views of the city and some local history and Seattle and the suburbs

Event though COVID is keeping many people away, this is a great spot for tourist. Along the Strip you can see both baseball and football stadiums and lots of eateries in the area

There is a lot to see and take in at Pier 55. Of course there is the giant Ferris Wheel, but there is also tons of places to eat and plenty of places to shop as well. There is a cool automatic organ that you feed a dollar and it plays music really loudly. It is tucked on the side of the Ye Olde Shop. There are binoculars to view the sound from, but even without there are good views to be seen. There is obviously ton of people, so the earlier you get there, the better if youre trying to beat the crowds. I would definitely recommend checking it out of youre in the area. Great place to take the family.

Sailingseattle.com good times! A great little 1.5 sunset sail for I believe $39.

I would really love to visit this place day time. It is so beautiful. Very nice scene and great place to visit.

A fun and touristy attraction. The ferris wheel was well worth the cost, something like $7-8 bucks a person.

Lots to see and do here. Some is average tourist fare with typical overpriced attractions. The ferris wheel however is definitely worth it with directly views. In the event you are visiting Seattle, Id rate it as a must experience short of it pouring rain which would hamper visibility.

The air is cool, the people passing by are happy and have smiling faces. The shops and restaurants are down to earth and friendly!

We thought the views were great. The ferris wheel was climate controlled which was so nice. The pier is adorable and the arcade was fun!

Peaceful waterside area in Seattle. Has great seafood restaurant and great view of sunset

We had a great time there. The waterfront area has lots to do and see

One of my favourite place to walk in the afternoon.

Lots of stores, lots of good food(seafood) lots of entertainment especiall on weekends!

Nice place with good view. Like to walking there

Very beautiful place .. enjoyed lunch here.

Get on the Argosy Harbor Cruise and see Seattle from it across the water on Puget Sound. The narrated cruise goddess you relevant and random info three City and its definitely worth seeing. Available as part of the CityPASS.

Nice place to take a break and sit back. Plenty of shops and places to eat.

Downtown Seattle is a dump. We only go into downtown when necessary. Other areas outside of downtown are nice.

Good. Its a kind of famous tourist spot but so so.

It should be better place and tourist attraction spot. But it is below my expectation. The shops is too few, the pier is too short and can not accomodate many stores. The significance structure is the ferries wheel. They should renovate and improve the pier to become San Francisco’s fisherman wharf.

Very nice place to visit. Will visit this again the next time Im in Seattle.

Good for site seeing.. and seafood

Real talk, I came here for Ivars but theres other great food in the area. Short walk from Pike Market but worth stopping by.

We went to Blake Island for the Tillicum experience! We have done this several times. This is a great thing to do with people visiting from out of town. The food is delicious, its a great experience. I love walking around the island. I like taking my own boat to Blake island more than the cruise because we get to explore the island more.

So much fun for so cheap!

Loved it! Going back next year.

Great place to see the Seattle sea front. The wheel was good fun and gave a great view of Mnt Rainer and lots of places to eat, drink and play if youve got kids (arcade machines plenty). Interested place #Seattle and lots more to explore but Pierr 55 is great place to start

Very busy and order ahead was not working. Only 2 baristas working.

Love Seattle! So much fun and it was sunny!

It has a beautiful landscape, good restaurants, it is very nice, I loved it.

Even on cloudy days, this is an awesome spot..

Very cool place. If you are looking for food and love the tourist stuff then you will like this area. There are some unique shops but more that sell the same tourist stuff. Hit this place up for good views and people watching.

Good views! Shame about the annoying guy who came along with his guitar but I guess that could happen anywhere

It is beautiful and you really are able to experience Seattle

We rode the Great Wheel. Got a nice view of the waterfront. Reasonably priced.

Love the waterfront in Seattle, parking however is a nightmare. If parking were easier to find 5 stars would have been my review. Not to mention the Hwy 99 Viaduct removal has begun...

It was wonderful. My son and I saw Kelly fishers in the water. And fishes he loved that some jumping up like jumping beans.

I went on an Argosy cruise and had Ann easy time finding it. The view was spectacular too.

Nice place to visit nice gift shops

Lots of different things to experience at the pier. Ferris wheel, cruise, aquarium, music, food, drinks, people watching, etc. Absolutely beautiful scenery. Alot of local artist selling their goods along with various street performers. The rickshaw drivers are super entertaining and its a fun way to hitch a ride and enjoy the waterfront.

Nice place to watch sunset while also looking at ferry and water taxis. The ferris wheels light reflecting in the water after dark is great for taking pictures. See all kinds of people enjoying themselves.

Loved the experience. Although Seattle isnt what it used to be. I lived here about 20 years ago. Its changed a lot. Not for the best Id say but its still cool. Watch your kids through the gum alley and bring your sanitizer lol..Im a mountain guy so Id never live there but for some its home. Even next to the freeways. They need to do something to help get the homeless off the streets. Clean it up and it would be a great place. Still is. Id love to take a Hosty pressure washer to the gum alley lol..Think my kids got contact high walking around the city. Overall it was fun.

Fun to walk around and see the sites

Kiddos and I hoped on an Argosy cruise here. The cruise was great. The guide had great stories to tell about Seattle and the water front. Highly recommend taking a cruise if you have the chance. Worth every penny.

Beautiful view, very nice waterfront with good foods, drinks and amusements.

Beautiful spot to see sunset and city lights. The lights on the big wheel changes colors fairl frequent so we never get tire from it.

Fun tourist spot. Good food, shopping, and adventure.

This place has an amazing view and there are many stores and eateries to explore..

Great view of the bat and Mt Rainier.

We took the trip to Blake Island to learn about our native peoples and it was amazing I highly recommend this trip!!! You leave from Pier 55 to take a boat to Blake Island. At the island you get to eat dinner which is salmon cooked in the native fashion and it was amazing! We took the entire third grade and it was amazing on every level I highly recommend this particular tour which I believe is called the Tilikum run.

Typical boardwalk: restaurants and a few stores. Most people come here for the ferry/ boat tours.

Nice place with a lot of gifts shops and good ice cream

I had the BEST time walking around and seeing so many different things! The ferris wheel was so beautiful at night! The alcohol they sell before you get on is expensive ($8 beer and $9 for white...why no red?...wine) but you do get a cute souvenir cup that Im pretty sure would hold up in the dishwasher. The people were friendly and locals give good recommendations for where to get a decent drink. I only have pictures from the ferris wheel. The rest you gotta check out!!

Beautiful place, specially boat tours...

Lots of good sites.

Its a nice pier, but if you want a cheap boat ride, take the ferry at the Seattle Ferry Terminal ;-)

Fun tourist spot

Very nice place, good gor walk and hang around.

What an amazing experience and memories! Loved the cool weather at night. Walking along the piers, enjoying the city and the view is the best appetizer before heading to one of the restaurants around.

Where to begin! So many great restaurants to eat at, boutiques to buy gifts for friends or yourself! Lots of sitting areas, a few covered areas and even some fountains. Very clean, not run down, and the views are to die for!! Definitely make this place a stop for out of towners!

Great little waterfront spot to chill and walk around. Definitely catering to tourists but the view is fantastic on a sunny day, and some great dining spots!

Great views at the end of Pier 56. Elliotts is amazing. Great food. Great drinks. Harbor and Locks tours leave from here as well. Red Robin also posts great views.

I love it Here, everything u can imagine in terms of taking a trinket back home to someone, plus I love Ivars forEVER...go get the chowder and KEEP CLAM.

Awesome place lots of fun things to do, fresh air and clean!

Tons of restaurants and shops here. My first time seeing squid reeled off from the pier-very cool!

Pier 55 is a great starting point for any Seattle adventure. All within short walking distance (like, two minutes), youre at Pirates Plunder, the Great Wheel, the Crab Pot, and more. My kids love feeding the seagulls every Sunday, and my preschooler adores searching for Sasquatch and getting rewarded with a view through the binoculars at the end of the pier.

Had fun, took a ride on the ferris wheel after the sunset. It was neat seeing Seattle all out up. The views were fantastic.

Hella fun. Went to the aquarium

Great scenery as well as awesome shops and caffes! Good for a walk and to enjoy the scene!

One of our favorite places to grab alder-smoked fish and chips, fun to go to in the winter when its not busy. Beer prices are very high, but it is a tourist area. Fun to people watch.

Gr8 lights from ferryboat at night

We visited here for cruise tour nice and clean pier!

A great place to visit while in Seattle! Great views of the pier!

Great place to walk around and take lots of pictures

It was really fun but it smelt so bad. And there were just too many people for my liking.

Very touristy as you would expect but good collection of eateries & shops. Worth a visit.

Definitely a tourist attraction. But a great experience, hope the new re-constructing of the pier area does not destroy whats there now. I greatly fear that what I saw posted for the area is going to change the character fro and a great iconic tourist attraction to a upscale local destination based on information I just saw posted.

Elliots oyster bar and The Crab pot were delish! Seattles Great Wheel was an Awesome waay to see the city And they serve alcohol! Great date night!!

Twice in a row visiting the place..drinks Great, food even better.. atmosphere brilliant

Great a place to be. I didnt give it a 5 star because it was way too crowded plus all the construction didnt help, but a must see when in Seattle. Make sure to visit the HUGE Farmers Market

Love coming here.. Very lively and lot to see. Beautiful scenery. I wish the city would clean up the homeless situation in the area

It was late, so, not busyI always love this place

Rodney is a very knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide. Perfect for a trip around the harbor.

A day of fun and local shopping. Bring your walking shoes and enjoy.

Always a fun place to visit. My sisters went up in the ferris wheel and enjoyed that. We enjoyed shopping for souvenirs at one of the local shops. And we had a delicious lunch at The Crab Pot. Its interesting watch how they serve all those pots by just dumping everything on the table in front of people. Even more interesting is watching how people eat the crabs mussels clams shrimp corn and potatoes or whatever else comes in the pot they ordered. Our cousin from Wales met us here in 2013 and we were excited to go here again. We had a table along the windows on the south side.

The Agrosy harbour tour starts from this pier, The tour is good who is looking for some good sea experience. But there is one more good option which tourists are not aware of. Take ferry(big ship) from Pier 52 and go to Bain bridge Island. This is so good place, you will find shuttle to Casino once you reach there, a very good Vegas style casino. And good thing is last ferry from Bainbridge to Seattle is at 01:00 so you can enjoy a lot at the island in only $8 round trip.

I love this place

Went to Starbucks. They real slow

Very touristy, but nice place to go and walk, shop done, and browse. You will need to pay to park on one of the lots across the street. Make sure you figure out how much time you will need as you buy parking by the hour. Lots of shops, mostly your typical tourist fare. Lots of restaurants. Some chains and some unique to Seattle. You can also catch a chartered boat to tour around.

Awesome Harbor cruise. Also to be super touristy look for the penny stamps in the gift shops and other places near here!

So much fun

Great place for shopping, sights and eats

Excellent place to walk around and have some good food. Finding parking is a big problem.
