At least since the 1970s, Capitol Hill has played an important role in Seattle's nightlife. Prominent bars in 1970, inevitably also of full-scale restaurants, upmarket, elegant Henry was off-Broadway and Broadway, two "fern bar," owner Jerry Kingent. (Kingent also turned to the Red Robin is one of the tavern at the end of the University of Southern bridge over the restaurant chain.) Bars his Boondocker's, Sundecker's, and Lion & Greenthumb O'Reilly's & BJ Monkeyshines were popular in the crowd mostly young and single heterosexual. Lion O'Reilly's was the last hurray "The Lion's Hard Rock Cafe", which led to legal action by the Hard Rock Cafe chain. Surviving that era, a rougher-hewn version of the same style, the Canterbury Ales 15th and eats Avenue E.

With a similar view, but a lot of giftware, which had come, was the Brass Connection, a bar and disco with a predominantly gay male crowd and occasional drag shows. He played a major role in moving the heart of Seattle's gay nightlife scene relative hidey-holes, particularly in Pioneer Square and Belltown neighborhoods, high-profile places, mainly in Capitol Hill and in particular the Pike-Pine corridor.

By the end of 1980, another gay bar, Tugs Belltown, passed on to the Hill (corner of Pine and Belmont) and became Tugs Belmont. In this new venue, it played an important role in increasing Seattle's fringe theater scene. Probably the first bar in Seattle since the Prohibition era before regularly host theatrical performances, in the early 1990s, it was the first home Greek Active Theater, founded by Dan Savage (working pseudonymously as Hollohan Keenan).

According to the Washington state liquor laws, until 1990, it was practically impossible to have a bar that served hard liquor without having a full restaurant at least 40% of the revenue had to come from the food. Drinking establishments were (and still is) divided by the full licenses for bars and taverns, which could only sell beer, wine and hard cider.

The scene along the Pike-Pine corridor has never been exclusively homosexual. In 1990, Moe's, which Pike just east of Broadway (now the site of Neumo's) transformed the former Salvation Army facility into a combination bar, restaurant and performance venue, where local and national level, as well as dance nights, and received a number of years one of Seattle's most striking musical performance venues . Now nearby Chop Suey and Neumo continue the tradition of live music and dozens of trendy (and friendly-but-divey) bars and clubs for gay and straight-themed nightlife.

New Washington State in December 2005, entered into force on the health codes required smokers to stay at least twenty-five feet of all doorways, open windows and vents at the time of smoking. Doors of neighboring businesses often fifty feet of each other, it is technically on the sidewalk to smoke anywhere. Serious issue that affects all businesses, and neighborhood bars and clubs are yet to find the resources to accommodate their smoking and non-customers, and must remain the law.

One of B & O's claims that fame is the fact that the band Pearl Jam for his own name, if they are in this café.

Through most of the 1990s, the Cafe Paradiso (now Caffe Vita on Pike) was one of the few all ages music venues in Seattle slipping through the cracks are severe Teen Dance Ordinance being, at least in theory, the NO-dancing spot.

The little Coffee Messiah (1990 - 2006), decorated with religious kitsch, serving a little, but the coffee and vegan pastries, all-time performance was also the venue for several years.
