Storefront Photos inside the Pike Place Market of Seattle

 

The Pike Place Market of Seattle is famous for its fresh produce and sea food.
 
There is an array of shops selling these.
 
For example, this amazing nut shop, with neatly labeled cartons for various nuts like Cashews, Hazelnuts and Almonds.
Pike Place Nuts also have large golden models of a groundnut and a cashew.
The storefront also shows:
1. Online ordering website.
2. Overnight shipping facility.
3. Credit cards that are accepted.
4. A Fire extinguisher.

The quantity of goods they sell often overflows the limited space each one has leaving no space for a formal storefront.

Their entire storefront is swamped by sea food.
They also ship overnight anywhere in the US via UPS.

Athenian is the most famous restaurant in the entire Pike Place Market in Seattle, my host told me.
There is nothing to the storefront except they serve breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Note that in the US, the dinner is over by 7pm unlike in India where it can extend way down to 11 pm in most restaurants and hotels.
 
They were closed at the time I visited.
Though I noted they provide free Wi-Fi and accept various cards.
The storefront also mentions they are closed on Wednesday.
The happy hours are also mentioned on the glass storefront.
