Around Bryant
Living closer to the commercial district on NE 55th Street and 35th Avenue NE will make for a more walkable lifestyle in this uptown community. Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy living adjacent to the popular Burke-Gilman Trail in the southern end of the district. This beloved Seattle nature haven is a 27-mile trail perfect for hiking and biking. Nearby, the path’s namesake park the Burke-Gilman Playground features a variety of swings, jungle gyms, and climbing structures in addition to a large picnic area.
Bryant isn’t known for its diverse culinary scene and offers limited options along NE 55th Street, 35th Avenue NE, and NE 45th Street. Seattle Sunshine Coffee is a neighborhood favorite that serves breakfast and lunch in a sleek industrial space. Yummy Café, another local favorite, specializes in Szechuan cuisine. Mioposto Pizza and Ridge Pizza NE are also local favorites serving Italian food. Locals can also drive to nearby Ravenna to check out the original location of the Seattle favorite, Kidd Burger. The local chain has been serving up its classic American fare since 1975.
Like most Seattle neighborhoods, Bryant features Craftsman-style homes with the occasional Cape Cod and modern new build mixed in the area. The neighborhood features many picturesque tree-lined residential streets lined with 100-year-old firs and well-kept homes with manicured landscapes. Bryant Elementary School’s brick and terra cotta façade is one of the architectural standouts in the area. Built in 1930, the building is listed on the Seattle Historic Preservation Landmarks List. On 55th Street NE there is a tiny cluster of shops and restaurants in old buildings that have a vintage, small-town vibe.
While the neighborhood isn’t really known for its nightlife, it is home to a few casual late-night spots. The Duchess Tavern is a laid-back dive bar featuring pub fare and sports games on television. Bryant’s proximity to the University District and University Village is also one of its biggest draws among locals. Both communities feature stellar dining options and lively bars. A few fabulous restaurants and wine bars can also be found in nearby Ravenna.
Bryant Corner Café is known for its delicious breakfasts for a hearty start to the day. Spend a sunny day in one of the local public parks like Bryant Neighborhood Park or Burke-Gilman Park. In nearby Ravenna, Cowen Park offers 49 acres of greenspace with winding trails shaded by mature fir and maple trees. Ravenna Creek and Sulfur Springs snake through the area, making it a perfect outdoor spot to cool off on a hot day.
The King County Bus Line 65 Local heads southwest stopping in University District then heading south to Downtown Seattle. The 62 also goes downtown with stops in the Fremont neighborhood along the way. Once downtown, riders can transfer to a number of bus lines heading throughout the city as well as the Sound Transit Link Light Rail that goes south to SeaTac airport. Bryant is also very walkable and bikeable, making it easy for locals to get errands done without driving a car.
