Elmer's Bar & Grill

A gathering spot for decades on Seattle's south end, Elmer's balances daytime diner rhythm with late-night dive energy. The kitchen operates from morning breakfast through late dinner on performance nights, serving up burgers and specials. Weekends revolve around no-cover classic rock sets that start at 9 PM, while Tuesday evenings host an open Jam Night inviting musicians to bring an instrument up to the stage. In between, a mixed crowd settles in for bar game machines, dancing, and easy people-watching.
