Chef Rob Bob was absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond. The tour was perfectly paced, and the two hours flew by way faster than we expected. He brings so much insight and humor while also acknowledging the darker history of Pike Place Market, which made the experience feel authentic and gave us a deeper appreciation for Seattle. What really stood out was how passionate he is about the market and the city. On top of everything included in the tour, he also shared so many pro tips and extra food recommendations around Seattle. If you're looking for a fun, informative, and delicious experience, this tour is 100% worth it! read more

My husband and I were visiting Seattle and thought this food tour would be a great way to explore Pike Place Market without being totally overwhelmed. It absolutely was. Our tour guide was Sylas, and he was fantastic. Very personable and knowledgeable. We had 9 different stops with some amazing food. We tried clam chowder, a chocolate chip cookie, a hot dog, candied salmon jerky...the list goes on. It was wonderful to visit these super busy restaurants without having to wait in line. Since we went to so many different places, we got to see a lot of the shops, which gave us an idea of where we wanted to visit afterwards. I would definitely do another food tour with them when I'm back in Seattle. read more

Sean was a great tour guide and gave local history of the market and of the food vendors. Really enjoyed it.

Pike Place Market is always our go-to. And we always do the food tour when we're here. No two tours are ever the same -- so much history, so many stories. I've done it five or six times now and have never once had the same chef leading it. Only two stops were repeats... and that's because they're absolute icons. read more

I'm a Seattle native and my sister wanted to do a food tour. We had our tour on 3.1. With Chef Will(chef dimples)! It was the BEST two hours ever! We had a great group of people! The food was AMAZING,(even tho chef will probably tell you I thought differently) the portions were SO filling. I honestly can't wait to go on this tour again. I will for sure be requesting chef will when I bring my big group down for a visit. This tour was prompt and timely! And honestly a really good time! The fish toss was a my favorite! read more

Very expensive for what you get. Plus didn't get one of the drinks for some reason at one restaurant. Food was good but drinks were alcohol deprived. read more

Chef Rob Bob was an amazing tour guide! The whole market knew him and he made the experience feel one of a kind, great way to be a tourist in your own city! read more

chef Rob bob was amazing!! highly recommend this tour guide, took us to the best spots and some extra!

WOW! Everything about Eat Seattle Tours was exceptional. From the moment Chef Will arrived at the meeting spot on his scooter with a big smile and welcoming demeanor to our final stop at Fran's Chocolates and everything in between. This food tour rivals anything we've done in Paris, Madrid, Prague, Budapest, Dubrovnik and NYC. If you ever find yourself in Seattle, WA, you absolutely need to make this tour a top priority. It will be a definite highlight of your trip too! read more

First time ever doing a food tour and I absolutely loved it. Got a little history, lots of food and a great experience. We had Jonathan who was fantastic! He was so personable, really tried to get to know each member and was so accommodating to those with allergies. Seeing him interact with the tour stop employees and the amount of information he knew made it wonderful. read more

We did this so long ago and I never finished my draft! Better late than never (never late it better). We popped up to Seattle for a long weekend, stayed in downtown, rode scooters to meet this group. It was FAB. Not only do you get extra lore, but little tastes of everything without.waiting.in.line. That in itself should be the biggest reason you book this. read more

Went to the Pike Place Market food tour, and our guide Stone was so knowledgeable. He shared his experiences working with a few renowned chefs in several cities. Luckily, our group was small, so we were able to get to know each other more and had a really fun time together. The meeting place was outside of Simply Seattle store, and the tour was started on time. We sampled 9 different places and enjoyed all the food. My favorite was the meat pie from the Land of Origin. The avocado based spicy sauce was perfect with it! Definitely recommend the tour! read more

We had an amazing food tour with chef Will. It was fast paced but Will gave us a lot of history and information about Pike Place Market and about each of the vendors we visited. We had so many delicious samples including clam chowder, pizza, tacos, ginger beer, ice cream, and a lot more! I highly recommend this tour but make sure you come hungry! read more

Chef Rob Bob was our guide and he was EXCELLENT. THe pace was perfect, the food portions were plenty. We loved hearing about the history and culture of Seattle from Rob Bob who grew up in this area and had extensive knowledge of food and history! Thank you for an excellent experience with an Expert in the field! read more

This was the perfect introduction to Pike Place Market. Our tour guide was Chef Rob Bob who grew up in the market (he was a "banana box baby" - ask him about it) and knows the market better than anyone. He gave us all the inside tips about where to eat, buy produce and cheese, and was particularly fun and fantastic with our skeptical teenagers. The food we got to taste was exceptional - everything from tacos to seafood chowder to pizza to a latte flavored with lavender and chocolate covered cherries. We learned as much about the history of the market as we did about the food. It's a calling for Chef Rob Bob, not just a job. The whole experience was fantastic and a bargain. Highly recommended! read more

This was one of my all time favorite activities in all of my travels over the years! Our guide, Johnathan, was extremely friendly and personable. From the beginning, he asked all of our names and where we were from and continued to remember things about each of us through the whole time together - which was impressive! The tour moved at a perfect pace and it was amazing to skip the lines at every location. It was clear he had a good working relationship with all of the shops we stopped at. The shop owners seemed genuinely happy to have us! Now for the food - so many samples! It was at least a full meal worth of food. Also, he asked about food allergies and remembered those and had substitutions available at every stop! In total we stopped at 9 places and had about 16 samples. Our favorite was the cheese, the taco and the gelato! There was only one sample we didn't care for. Again, this was one of the best curated food experiences I have ever done and would do it again next time I came to town. read more

We were looking to find an easy way to explore pike place and try a variety of food they have while spending a short time in Seattle. The experience was way better than expected! We were guided by Chef Will who created a fun, educational and tasty experience. He even shared yummy recipes as he shared about the food we were eating and educated us on pike place. The food stops they had we're all solid. We had a hard time deciding our favorite dish! Highly recommend this tour. Great value read more

This is our first visit to Seattle and this Chef Guided Tour was highly recommended by friends who live here - and now we know why! It was a great time from beginning to end. Our guide, Chef Noah, was really fun, very informative, and engaged our group the entire time. We sampled excellent chowder, truffles, fresh fruit, pizza, candied salmon, Turkish bread, chocolates - and also met the shopkeepers who make them and learned the history of their products. We went back after the tour ended and bought numerous items to enjoy during our stay here. A great introduction to Seattle as a whole. If you enjoy food and history as much as we do, sign up for one of these tours. Five stars to you, Eat Seattle!! read more

We did a Pike Place Market tour with Chef Rob Bob and it was great!!! We got to try a variety of different food as well get some history and cool stories about the market. We are really glad we took a tour instead of trying to figure out where to go on our own. Rob Bob was super cool and got us to try a scallop on the half shell (which I wouldve never tried anywhere else). Accomodated our picky eater too, would def recommend to anyone wanting to try some new foods and check out the market!! read more

We just finished a wonderful tour with Jonathan! He has great energy and did a fantastic job choosing all the different places. Exploring the market and some of the behind the same stuff is so cool! I'd recommend if it all possible going on a weekday instead of a super busy weekend. I've done the tour both times, and enjoyed the slower paced weekday one better. I believe we went to 9 different stops, but we're able to taste several different things at some of the stops. Took some pics- hope you enjoy viewing our tasty bites as much as we enjoyed eating them! Great job Eat Seattle, and Jonathan! read more

This was a pretty disappointing experience. I've done a food tour in every place I've visited. It's the perfect way to learn about a place while enjoying the food and drinks. This was the least enjoyable of the 15 I've done. It was also NOT worth the money. I was in Seattle for a teacher conference and the conference organizers put together private tours -- a food tour one day and a coffee tour the other. You can see the descriptions of the tours in my photos. (FYI...The photos are in a weird order for some reason.) No where does it say that the food portions will be small but my goodness were they all small. I've never experienced a tour in which I left hungry but on both of these I did. I also wish I had known that no water would be available on the tours. I was so thirsty the whole time. I'm used to sitting down and enjoying the food but that didn't happen here. I get that it's a different setting than a lot of places but we did sit down at Indi so we could have gotten some water there. An add-on for alcohol was offered on the food tour for $17. I opted not to get it and I'm so glad that I didn't! It was for one stop on the tour. I'm used to getting decent size drink samples at every stop so that would have disappointed me. But here's the kicker...I ended up ordering the same drink as people got with the add-on for the tour and mine was cheaper!! The coffee tour was INCREDIBLY disappointing. While our tour guide was knowledgeable about the city, the only time I was told anything about the coffee was at the first stop. And every coffee seemed to be the same. Absolutely nothing unique about them. No pour overs. Nothing iced. It should have been called a pastry tour and not a coffee tour. We had more pastries than we did coffee. I was also disappointed because I got two of the exact same food samples as I did on the food tour. It would be nice if pre-planned private tours that are scheduled by the same group get to experience unique offerings. A very frustrating thing about the coffee tour was that we stopped at an Ethiopian stand and the lady working had no idea we were supposed to be there so she didn't have anything prepared. So I essentially paid for something I didn't receive! Our tour ended 20 minutes before our scheduled end time. I paid more for the coffee tour yet received a lot less. I was so hungry and in need of caffeine when I was done that I ended up buying a latte from Ghost Alley Espresso and chowder from Pike Place Chowder. read more

We went on The Eat Seattle tour on a date day. It is an amazing and informative experience! We were guided to 8 places and got tastes from all of them. Our tour guide Scott was very informative, funny and was awesome at explaining The Pike Place market. It was awesome hearing about the history of the market and learning of the market community. Getting delicious bites from different restaurants and stores was an added bonus! Hearing from some of the different vendors was awesome also. Hearing their story of how they got to their spot in the market was fascinating! The tour takes right around 2 hours, and there is lots of walking, sometimes on uneven ground or cobblestone. Make sure you have proper footwear. It is absolutely a great experience, sorry there are not more pics, I was really engrossed in the story telling. read more

My Mom and I wanted to check out Pike Place Market, and I'm so glad that we chose this chef-guided tour! We walked through before meeting Stone, our chef and tour guide. Without Stone, we would have been overwhelmed and/or missed some crucial places. We had limited time in Seattle, so this was a fantastic way to try a curated menu. We absolutely love the vendors and unique model for how the market supports the local community and small businesses. This is a can't miss in Seattle! read more
