Large indoor space with a handful of eating options. This was a convenient spot to grab lunch between museum hopping. We came during the crowded winter holiday season, and it was very crowded, but it wasn't terrible. My baby needed a nap and I didn't want to walk with her outside where it was cold, so luckily there was some quick space in the back on the 2nd floor. read more

There was Winterfest performance and Winter Train & Village Display. The place was full of people trying to enjoy the singing carols and food hall. There were plenty of options to choose from. But my daughter and I decided to try Matt's Fish Basket. Plenty of sitting areas as well. It was such a nice place for family to hang out and enjoy food. There was Children Museum just one level below the food mall. Great for family. read more

The armory is a larger building with restaurants, restrooms, and tourist information for people visiting Seattle. I've eaten at subway here. Subway sandwiches is well, an ok sandwich. There are other restaurants but I haven't tried them. Super expensive choices. I usually come in to use the restroom honestly. Super clean and warm. Anyone I have encountered has been friendly and nice. Loads of tables to sit and enjoy your food. I think there is a good fried fish spot. Maybe I'll try it next time I'm here. A good spot for a pit stop if you're visiting the Seattle center. SYOY. read more

After a tour of the Space Needle in Seattle, we found out that there's a fast food place at Seattle Center Armory. It's right next to the Space Needle and after several hours of enjoying the view from the Space Needle, you have to unwind and grab some food at this place. There's a hamburger joint, Mexican, coffee shop, etc. The price is just reasonable compared to the food they offer at Space Needle. If it's your first time at Space Needle and get hungry after, come down and walk across and you'll find Seattle Armory. read more

Christmas fills the air! However, the music was way to loud! The live performers were good but the volume was annoying. The food options are varied, but I was surprised to see no ice cream sold. It was December and maybe it is different in the summer. Very clean and well maintained facilities! Enjoy! read more

What a great food hall and event experience center! I came to visit to attend the Frenchly Best Croissant & Baguette Compétition. It was in the Armory Loft. Enjoyed the sampling of bread and croissants (both classic au beurre and pain au chocolat and specialty croissants too! My goodness, Seattle has some talented pastry a chefs. Their shop or bakery needs to be on everyones's radar! I wish I could eat more but just a few bites for each bakery's samples was enough to get an idea of who I liked. I enjoyed the L'Experience Bakery for their baguette and the Petit Pierre Bakery for their butter croissant! the PPB also did an amazing chocolate pain suisse with coconut cream (wowed!). The food hall also had French mon-profits in language programs for kids and adults' gift items and displays of art (paintings). This event space was perfect - out of the rain & spacious enough. Fun event, great experience, wonderful venue! read more

Cool spot! The inside looks nothing like the outside. The outside is like a standard building and the inside looks much more lively. They have a lot of different types of food which is cool. And if I was by myself, I'd walk around and find something. They had a Mod Pizza and we have one at home, so I wasn't interested. I didn't get to peruse because the grands were chomping to go outside to play, but I hadn't had any coffee so I went in. But the cursory glance didn't really impress me if I were to be honest. They may have a gem in there, but I didn't see it. It may reveal itself upon a second look. I did go to Starbucks and waited longer than I ever have for a coffee drink. Too long, as in can I cancel this and go somewhere else? But if in the area, I'd give it a crack again. read more

Seattle Center Armory - Going in to get my coffee. - Food Court Near Me - Seattle, Washington

A very nice food court, lots of options and plenty of space!! Located in the Seattle Center not far from the Space Needle, I have eaten here a few times. They have Starbucks, Subway, Tacos, Wings, Mod Pizza, along with some other places. When I came here, there was a huge TV screen set up that looked like some sort of seminar was going on. This place is very spacious. It's also a good place to warm up in on a cold day, that's what we did!! read more

Looking for something to eat. This hall of sorts has a variety of eats. There is a children's museum on the bottom floor. They have a stage for music and performances. The Greek restaurant were delicious! Highly recommend. Lots of seating and very clean. Public restrooms are easily accessible. read more

This place is a good idea... however.... there is a large difference between the posted hours of operation and the actual open time. We came this morning at 9am to try to get coffee from Ceres (online said they open before 8) and they said they were opening at 9. Came back for dinner because the website said they were open till 9 PM. We came at 6 o'clock and some businesses were already closed and others were closing. The seller at the meat pie restaurant said their hours change daily based on volume. This is a spacious dining area and there weren't too many people here. My chicken meat pie with rosemary cream sauce was very good. Others in my party got the fish and chips from Matt's (overpriced and just ok) and MOD pizza which was a safe bet. Would recommend during mid day hours for a variety of options. read more

I went here on a Wednesday earlier this month (September) for lunch around 1pm. This food court has a lot of popular chain restaurants and has a good variety of foods to choose from. They have restaurants like MOD Pizza, Wing Dome, Starbucks, Subway, and many more! Hehe I was having trouble deciding what to eat here because they all sounded so good to me at that moment! The main reason I went here was because I was in the area and wanted to eat something before going up Space Needle. The food I got was chicken wings, waffle fries, and a slushy and it tasted good enough and filled me up. I was so happy this food court had drinks that came with lids and straws here unlike a different food court I went to in Seattle recently since I like walking around with my drinks. I also like how this place was clean and the restrooms here weren't that bad either. I'd recommend this place! There's a good variety of foods to choose from, places to sit, and the food tasted good. At this Seattle Armory place, they also have restrooms in case you need it. I just wish this place would stay open later. I tried to go here on one of the days for dinner, but they close at 7pm everyday! read more

I never realized that around the Space Needle were a bunch of museums and food courts. I mean, they only show the Needle on TV. So when I realized it was a larger area, I immediately checked out the "Seattle Center Armory." It was a large food court, packed with Starbucks, burgers, and pizza spots. The main hall was large and full of seating, capable of seating hundreds. They have a lower level for children to play around to make the most out of your visit. If you see the Space Needle, stop in for lunch, it worth it. read more

If you're traveling in a group, especially including kids, this is a helpful stop. Lots of food options, restrooms, performances, beer for the adults, life sized chess and checkers on the second level, art. During the holidays there's a train that the kids can operate and a scavenger hunt through a miniature town. Also children's museum downstairs and the monorail just outside, quick stop to the nearby mall. read more

Terrific food court located in the heart of Seattle Center. We enjoyed being able to order reasonably priced, completely different foods and enjoy them at a central table. We especially enjoyed the Meat Pies and Kabobs cafes. Ambiance is not great but we were happy to sit and rest for a while. read more

Discovered the Armory on my last trip to Seattle. I had no idea this place was here! It's a large food court that is located near the Space Needle and Chihuly Garden and Glass Museum. There's a variety of food outlets available like tacos, burgers, seafood, chinese, and your usual suspects like Starbucks and Subway. They even have a boba shop. There's something for everyone and there's a lot of seating available inside. It looked like they were preparing for a show or festival while I was there so I can imagine they have a regular schedule of entertainment that happens in the Armory. Had I known this was here earlier, I would've stopped by for food here versus the vendors outside of the Space Needle. It's convenient and right next to the monorail. read more

The Seattle Center Armory is basically the food court for the Seattle Center. There are plenty of restaurant options to utilize here. Not sure if all the restaurants here are chains of various sizes or if some are just unique to the armory. But you will recognize places like Subway and of course Starbucks which meets both the large chain operations and something local. I don't often get meals here at the Seattle Center because usually it is very crowded and overstimulating but I do often stop by to use the restrooms when out and about here and if you know how hard it is in Seattle and Washington State for finding a public restroom compared to other states and without having to buy something to use a restroom you will cherish those restrooms like gold like everyone else does. Personally when it comes to getting meals and doing an outing at the Seattle Center I prefer to just go to the nearby Belltown, Queen Anne or Downtown neighborhoods as it isn't so overwhelming usually and may reduce wait times before dining but it all depends where you go and what other activities are happening in those neighborhoods. read more

Great place to cool down and break while visiting the area. I stopped by while visiting g the Bite of Seattle hot summer day.

Ok food court next to the Seattle Needle. Plenty of seating and the bathrooms were clean.

I was pleasantly surprised with the array of different food options (from the outside it looked like they only had chain restaurants a la food court options. I decided to get a pasty and it was the perfect size to hold me over before the concert I attended at Climate Pledge. Lots of seating, clean bathrooms, a great option for families with children near the Space Needle and Science Museum. read more

A fine spot for a quick lunch in the heart of Seattle. Close to everything and not as expensive as nearby sit down restaurants.

this is a very cool kind of like food court vibe place near the space needle. We stopped by here to get some Starbucks before we went to the space needle and Chihuly. This is also convenient if you need to find a place to use the bathroom. It's kind of cool about the variety of food they have in here although we didn't get to try any. The Starbucks personnel provided excellent service. Definitely will stop by in here again next time we are in Seattle. read more

Quick stop in the food court for a soda. Starbucks inside and a Subway and other quick and fairly cheap places are available inside. Also some interesting history of the building available on panels inside. Playground outside is great fun. No matter your age climb the net and go down the slide. Moms rule! Public displays of art and a grassy area for hanging out make this a cool stop. read more

The Seattle Center Armory was once named the Center House, rightfully. It is the hub and heart of Seattle Center. While many come to visit the Seattle Center for many sites - Pacific Science Center, Space Needle, etc., the Armory is commonly the starting point or the ending point. It has a variety of eateries that line the outer walls. After the remodel several years ago, newer style eateries are now available, such as Mod Pizza, Plum Bistro, Blue Water Taco Grill, and the Bubble Tea Shop. Seattle Center hosts multiple cultural festivals throughout the year during the weekends. It's an excellent time to visit. Free entertainment on stage, culturally-themed foods, special shopping, and often kids play-area are available in the armory. During the winter time, a huge train set is often set-up. It's typically called WinterFest, also a great time to visit. Pro Tip: Its restrooms were remodeled fairly recently; during outdoor festival times, these are the best ones to use. read more

From winter, to spring, summer to fall, there is always something brewing at the Armory. Sure you can find a bite to eat at any number of eateries - sweet and savory - but the festivals are what draw the crowds! Celebrate cultures and traditions from around the globe at weekly festivals, watch ice sculptures being created in the wintertime, and operate a small train on its track throughout the winter season. It's fun for all of the family! The Armory offers shelter from the rain and snow, a respite from the summer sun, and music, decorations and fun from around the world. read more

There are about 10 different restaurants where you can get fast food from: Wok, Mod Pizza, Starbucks to name a few. There's free WiFi courtesy of Microsoft. Restrooms are clean and large enough so you don't have to wait. The Children's Museum in the basement is not that expensive for what it is, but make sure you plan on spending the day here if you want to pay for the museum. The people working on cleaning the tables are on top of their business. Sometimes you might end up having lunch next to a developer working for Microsoft, or a vagabond asking for money. For sure not a dull place! ＾＾ read more

Food court with lots of nice options for food. We got bobas from a cute boba shop. Boba was a little on the expensive side $6 plus $0.75 for each topping but the tea was yummy. We also got Chinese food from Wok. Food was decent for food court Chinese food. Kids like the fried tofu, fried rice and noddles. We also had the bbq pork which looked really good but they need to slice it smaller. They give good sized portions. All that food was split between 2 adult and 2 kids. read more
