Tucked into Post Alley in the heart of Pike Place Market, Pike Place Chowder has been the go-to seafood stop for locals and visitors since 2003. Steps from the fish throwers, the flower stalls, and the Seattle waterfront, this is the seafood experience Pike Place Market is known for. Scratch-made from 2am, sourced from Pacific Northwest waters, and backed by 17 national first-place titles.
8 Scratch-Made Chowders. All Different. All Worth Trying.
Most seafood spots serve one chowder. We serve eight, each one distinct, each one scratch-made from 2am daily.
From our nationally celebrated New England Clam Chowder to Seafood Bisque and Seared Scallop, no two bowls taste the same. The 8 Chowder Sampler lets you try all eight in one sitting and is one of the most unique seafood experiences available anywhere at the Market. If you only do one thing at Pike Place Market, make it this.
Fresh Seafood Rolls
Beyond the chowder, we serve fresh Maine Lobster rolls, Dungeness Crab rolls, and Shrimp rolls, each one prepared in-house with a focus on flavor and quality.
Simple, fresh, and genuinely Pacific Northwest. The kind of seafood that reminds you why Seattle is one of the best food cities in the country.
Pro Tip: Order Online and Take It to the Waterfront
The line at our Pike Place Market location is part of the experience and it moves fast. If you want to skip it entirely, order ahead online and follow the signs at the back kitchen for pick-up. Then take your bowl down to the Seattle waterfront, grab a seat at Rachel's Ginger Beer or the Taproom just around the corner, and eat the way locals do. There is no better way to experience Pike Place Market than with a bowl of chowder and a view of Puget Sound.
Most Awarded Chowder In America
Pike Place Chowder has won 17 national first-place titles at chowder competitions from coast-to-coast. Yelp named our New England Clam Chowder the Most Popular Dish in America. Every bowl at this location is held to the same scratch-made standard that earned those titles, sourced from Pacific Northwest waters and regional partners including Grand Central Bakery for our sourdough bread and brioche buns.
