The wife and I will be in Seattle this weekend which is the first time for both of us. We will be staying downtown with about a day and a half to kill but we do not plan to rent a car. Notwithstanding the shitty weather, what would you do for entertainment in a similar time frame? Anything cool that a tourist would not necessarily find? I know there are a lot mags in the Seattle area so any advice is appreciated. She is a big foodie and I just plan to keep a moderate buzz all weekend so any good bar recs are also appreciated.

I am sure the locals have better rec's but I went on a visit a few months ago with my girlfriend and enjoyed drinks at Radiator Whiskey and a burlesque show at the Can Can. The Ballard area of town is a great place to walk around, kinda like a mix of Berkeley/Venice/Georgetown...Best Skier on the Mountain

My personal favorite is the masonry wood fired pizzas awesome tap list and vinyl playing. Great joint. Another good place to get a beer is Fremont brewing and Fremont in general is a cool neighborhood. Also alki beach and beveridge place pub if you make it to west SeattleComment

Not to shit on this but I think he's looking for stuff that doesn't show up on page 1 of google.
Here's my analog.
Fish and chips: go to Pacific Inn in Fremont and have a stiff drink in that dive with great food.
Market: go to the Melrose market on cap hill after eating oysters next door at Taylor seafood. The market has great meats and cheeses.
Ballard: if you've'nt'd enough seafood yet, you can't miss Walrus and Carpenter. Or get a bloody and biscuits at Hattie's. Skeeball at Kings. Or stop in at my bro in laws bar for music and drinks: Conor Byrnes.
Underground Tour can be cool. Grab a drink at the Diller Room and a pork chop at Lecosho before or after.
Ferry Ride: takes you out of the city, so just take the west Seattle ferry and then make your way to alki for some beachiness or the a hidden flat pizza gem at pizzeria 22.
Lots of other stuff: yesComment
