Roq's Move Update

We are all settled in our beautiful new space in Seattle's historic Pioneer Square and we love it!
Lots of folks have come to visit us but we thought we start a handy little guide of other neat things to see in Pioneer Square. There are historic walking tours and underground city tours, and of course a plethora of art galleries. But we thought Roq fans might enjoy strolling around the neighborhood checking out some of our neighborhood friends!

 Piranha Shop (Creative space that hosts lowbrow and cool counterculture shows)
 The Belfry (Fantastic, elegant oddities shop)
 E Smith Mercantile (Handmade clothes, jewels, gourmet food products with a big dose of alt Americana)
Zeitgeist Coffee (Best coffee in Pioneer Square)
Bar Sajor (gorgeous, sexy place for drinks and appies)  
Bon Voyage Vintage (great old school vintage clothes shop)  
Diva Dolls (seriously retro pin up clothes and masses of sparkly jewels)

 We will be adding more soon!
