An oral history of the food scene that helped build Nirvana, Soundgarden, and more icons of grunge
When my bandmates/housemates and I weren’t spending our lean years doing all-you-can-eat pizza or Chinese buffets, we were likely splurging on burgers, beer, pool, and video games at some tavern or another. In the early 1980s it wasin downtown Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood, and it would remain a favorite for almost 40 years.
Cool music, paintings, company, and conversation were enjoyed after work, in between tracking guitars, or at the end of the day’s session. We’d run across the street for a bite — burgers, sausages, potato salad, beans, daily soup and sandwich specials — and a quaff — pitchers pints, shots — and return before the taped guitar solo went cold, then tracking another take and returning to Two Bells before my pint became warm. Ah, the lean years were also the halcyon days.
By the late ’80s it was a great place to drink with a fake ID and get a cheap dinner, since they had insane early and late happy hour deals that even we could afford. They were one of the first bars to pour local microbrews, which I think were sold for $1 a pint during happy hour. Lots of music scene people lived nearby, like Ron Nine , Kim Warnick , and Ken Stringfellow . So the DeLuxe was convenient for before or after the parties that always seemed to be happening on that block.
