DeLaurenti Food & Wine

"I stumbled upon DeLaurenti Food & Wine while exploring Pike Place Market during our conference break. The inviting aroma of espresso drew us in, and we found ourselves surrounded by an array of specialty foods and wines. We couldn't resist trying their chocolate chip hazelnut, and it didn't disappoint. The combination of chocolate and nutty flavors was spot-on, leaving us craving more. What really stood out, though, was the friendly atmosphere and the staff's genuine hospitality. Calder, one of the food managers, went out of his way to make us feel welcome. His knowledge of the products and his passion for what he does made our visit memorable. The paninis were also a hit – simple yet delicious, with fresh ingredients that spoke for themselves. Overall, DeLaurenti strikes the perfect balance between tradition and innovation. It's a place where you can enjoy quality food in a relaxed setting, surrounded by friendly faces. To Pat McCarthy, Matt Snyder, Nate Plutko, and the rest of the team, thank you for a wonderful experience. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Seattle."

"A very original, unique and rich grocery shop with all the rare fundamental products like olives oils, salts, mustards, chocolates , cheeses. There is also a coffee shop located there too, so you enjoy your coffee while getting your head around your expensive fancy grocery bill."

"If I had space in my suite case I’d have gone nuts. Price wise you’re getting what you pay for and if I’m honest it’s not as expensive as you’d think being down on Pike."

"Pike Pace Market: launch a superb lunch. My lunch with free water came to $6 and that includes the tip. The pizza was crusty, hot delivered to our table and was food art in its execution. The flavor was delicious with just the right amount of crunch and cheese. Plus I added some free Parmesan from near the free water). We heard about this great quick lunch by asking a vender for a tip where their favorite place to eat was in the Market. If crowded downstairs there’s also Limited seating upstairs."

"Such an excellent store. This is the kind of place I highlight when I say Pike Place is for tourists and locals alike. Such a wide breadth of cheeses, sauces, pastas, canned goods, frozen goods, cookies, and sweets it's almost overwhelming."
