Our family of 6 booked the Chef-led tour of Pike Place Market and met 4 others for a stop through 10 vendors. Chef Eric led our tour and made our Saturday morning one of the most wonderful experiences of our Washington State trip. Chef Eric was knowledgeable about the history of the market, the food itself, food preparation and allowed us a VIP experience of some of the most delicious food we've ever eaten - great variety too. It was such a joy to have a small group so we could hear our chef and follow him easily through a very crowded market. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour for anyone who enjoys food and wants the inside scoop on some of the Market's best spots. GO TEAM ERIC !!

Our guide had a genuine love of good food. He also truly loved the market and shared much of it's' history. We had our granddaughters with us, ages 8, 11, and 12. They enjoyed it also

We are delighted to hear that you see the value of our chef perspective of Pike Place and your granddaughters equally enjoyed it. Thank you for supporting what we do!

We (5 adults, 1 toddler) thoroughly enjoyed our tour through Pike Place Market. It’s a bustling area that could easily become overwhelming without a guide, and Heather kept us entertained and well-fed for the full 2 hours. Our favorite samples were the marionberry Greek yogurt, the Bavarian bacon, and the chowder. Thanks for sharing your expertise, Heather!
