Cap Hill staple Bait Shop can make their cocktails NA, typically for less than half the price. Just ask!
A favorite for brunch, dinner, or late night snacks, Life on Mars always has several brilliant NA cocktails on the menu.
This new cafe-by-day and bar-by-night spot has mocktail list featuring a Fancy Shirley, Ube Orange Cream Soda, and more.
Fremont hot spot Stampede Cocktail Club can mix several different mocktails on request, using Seedlip brand non-alcoholic distilled “spirits," among others. Don't forget that this quirky bar serves up three kinds of dumplings all night long. (There's a vegan option if you're also doing Veganuary!)

Can't forget the Seattle staple of Rachel's Ginger Beer! While they serve up several cocktails with their ginger beers, they offer creative flavors and mixes with their wide-range of flavors and creations. (Did someone say warmed spiced apple ginger beer?)
Not far from the Columbia City light rail station you can enjoy live music with a glass in your hand filled with one of The Royal Room's many fun mocktail concoctions.
The bar under the Amazon Spheres, Deep Dive, has a variety of alcohol-free cocktails including classics like a Manhattan or an Old Fashioned, as well as NA beer.
Rooftop bar Fog Room certainly lives up to its name if you're there for Veganuary in January, but their "spirit-free" specialty cocktails are certainly worth it. Also, always a treat in the summer--just be sure to make reservations!
L'Oursin is a charming French bistro in the CD with delicious "sans alcool" ("without alcohol" in French) options including a "Gingembre" with smoked salt and rosemary.
Old school lounge Vito's has an NA menu where the bartender will even concoct a personalized mocktail based on your preferences. $8 for the Bartender's Choice.
Tiki bar Navy Strength in Belltown always has a handful of clever non-alcoholic options on its menu.
Fremont speakeasy Backdoor has a small mocktail list on the menu, but they carry several N/A liquors for custom mocktails!
Farm-to-table restaurant Eight Row showed up on Seattle Met's "
Best Things I Ate This Year" list for 2021, and also showcases an extensive drink menu including housemade sodas with seasonal shrubs and locally-brewed Culture Shock kombucha. How could you not be tempted by a Rainier Cherry Shrub?
Northgate might seem like a ways to go, but if you're drinking mocktails, you're all good to drive! (It's also right next to the new light rail station up there.) They have a huge non-alcoholic spirit list, from brands like Seedlip, Free Spirit, Lyre's, Monday, and Wilderton. With these, they create drinks like the NAddy Toddy, Tropical Mist, and Papa Pear Spritz. (They have a huge alcoholic alcohol list too.)
