Refreshments at PaCommEx
Even though attendees might be bringing in food and drink into the show, there is a full-fledged coffee shop in the same parking lot as our venue! It is Lula Coffee Co, its new, second location in Seattle. You can see its varied menu at https://www.lulacoffeeco.com/ (though the website still needs to be updated to show the 3100 Airport Way S location).
Saturday Night Dinner
A tradition from the days of the Commodore Vegas Expo, we go out to a restaurant on Saturday night after PaCommEx. About a mile away to the west, there is the Orient Express housed in antique railway cars. Known for its Chinese and Thai dishes, Orient Express Restaurant & Bar is at 2963 4th Ave S, Seattle, WA 98134. See https://www.orientexpresswa.com/ And for an article on the historical nature of this establishment, which includes a train car from President Franklin Roosevelt, see https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/orient-express-restaurant
