Comet Tavern
Worth visiting!
Overheard at this place — 2 years ago
I always make a trek into the beloved Comet when I’m in town. My first visit was during the day, about 1 p.m. I witnessed a construction worker come in and order a glass of zinfindel. Which is laughable, since it’s the Comet.
So the bartender pours the wine in a small glass and serves it. The guy starts arguring with the bartender and demands a wine glass. The Comet doesn’t have wine glasses. It’s the Comet. Thus, an argument ensues and the man begins to trash the Comet for their lack of proper barware. I was hoping for some serious fisticuffs but the guy just walked away and bitched.
Mere moments a guy sat down at the bar and began yelling about how much he hated Seattle.
I love the Comet. Take good care of your bartender.
