Sip. at the wine bar & restaurant Debuts Seattle’s Most Spectacular New Patio

Sip in the Sunshine in a Unique Cosmopolitan Setting

SEATTLE, Wash.—(May 19, 2010)— Summer is just around the corner, and—for those fortunate enough to live, work and play downtown—so is the city’s hottest new restaurant patio, at Sip. at the wine bar & restaurant.

Sip. Seattle offers an urban oasis in the heart of the business and financial district. With a backdrop of the dramatic Seattle skyline, the architecturally striking Seattle Library across the street and peek-a-boo views of Elliott Bay, Sip.’s patio offers even the most jaded local a fresh perspective on the city’s attractions.

Handsome tables and chairs are surrounded by lush landscaping and grassy lawns. Prefer the buzz and vibe of the indoor scene? For the best of both worlds, expansive sliding glass doors can be opened wide to let the outside in.

What’s more, Sip.’s patio isn’t limited to lunch and dinner service: Happy hour can also be enjoyed outdoors, Monday through Saturday and all day on Sunday. Guests can sip half-priced wines by the glass from the restaurant’s extraordinary wine program or enjoy a special $5 cocktail. Also available are expertly crafted summer coolers, like the Pomegranate Mojito ($12) or the lively Luce del Sol ($10), made with top-shelf liquors, fresh-squeezed juices and flavored, house-made syrups. The happy hour menu isn’t limited to intoxicating beverages. Five special plates are offered all night on Sundays at only $5 each, including:

Sweet Roll Sliders—all-natural, grass-fed mini burgers, pepper mayo, and jack cheese on Hawaiian sweet buns

Chips and Dips—roasted garlic hummus, caponata spread, olive tapenade and warm pita

House Salad—organic baby lettuces, marinated tomatoes, parmigiano and red wine vinaigrette

Potato Frites—crispy fries scented with sage and garlic

Tenderloin Beef Skewers— Marinated all natural beef skewers, sesame ginger teriyaki and Asian slaw

“Western exposure is the key to a perfect Seattle afternoon or evening on the patio. All three Sip. locations have outdoor dining with western exposure, so people can take full advantage of the sun in warm weather,” notes Sip. owner Lane Scelzi.

Also featuring outdoor dining in spring and summer months, the Issaquah and Gig Harbor locations offer the same top-shelf bar and craft cocktail menu as Sip. Seattle and happy hour specials seven days a week (all day Sunday). Trellised with twinkling lights, patios at both locations likewise extend their outdoor hours with cozy warmers and have large sliding doors for a welcoming inclusiveness; Sip. Issaquah boasts an outdoor fireplace for an added dose of atmosphere.

The Napa Valley-inspired Sip. at the wine bar & restaurant offers an approachable, global wine selection featuring nearly 70 by-the-glass choices, wine flights, and more than 250 bottles from the Pacific Northwest, California and around the world. The Northwest-driven food menu comforts and inspires, and is sourced locally whenever possible. Locations include 909 5th Ave., Seattle 98101 (206) 682-2779; 1084 NE Park Dr., Issaquah, 98029 (425) 369-1181; and 4793 Point Fosdick Dr. NW, Suite 400, Gig Harbor, 98335 (253) 853-3020.

Sip. at the wine bar & restaurant Now Offers Full Bar Service

All Sip. Locations Add Craft Cocktail Menu

SEATTLE, Wash.—(March 11, 2010)— All Sip. at the wine bar & restaurants are now offering a full bar and new palate-tempting libations utilizing high-end liquors and ingredients.

The Seattle flagship at 5th and Madison, which opened November 2009, successfully piloted full bar service; now sister restaurants located in Gig Harbor and Issaquah have also jumped on board.

“Wine was the inspiration for Sip., and our dedication to offering wide-reaching selections and expert wine service will never change,” says owner Lane Scelzi. “But I absolutely appreciate the desire for a fine cocktail, and a full bar is something our guests have asked for.”

Instead of relying on pre-made sour mix, only fresh-squeezed citrus juices go into their expertly crafted cocktails. Housemade syrups stand in for mass-market sweeteners, in such intriguing flavors as lavender honey, Meyer lemon, mulberry, pomegranate and agave.

“We’re making sure that each liquor and mixed drink we serve is of superior quality, just as they expect from every other aspect of Sip,” adds Scelzi.

Mulberry St. Sling – 10
New Amsterdam Gin, fresh-pressed lemon juice and mulberry syrup, shaken and topped with soda

Pearhana – 11
Captain Morgan Spiced Rum, Clear Creek Pear Brandy, ginger syrup, fresh-pressed lime and orange juices, shaken and served iced

Lavender Sidecar – 11
Jacques Cardin Cognac, Cointreau, lavender honey syrup, lemon juice and orange bitters, shaken and served in a lightly sugar-rimmed snifter

View the full cocktail menu below

Unaffected by the addition of a full bar is Sip.’s extensive, distinguished wine list, which offers 40 by-the-glass choices, over 300 bottles from the Pacific Northwest, California and around the world, and nearly eight expertly chosen flights, each of which provides guests an opportunity to learn as well as savor.


Guests can enjoy $5 well drinks and half-priced wine glass pours during happy hour at the Seattle location, Monday through Friday 1 to 6:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. to close; Saturday and Sunday 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. to close. Happy hour at the Issaquah and Gig Harbor locations occur daily from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. to close.
