WEST SEATTLE CHRISTMAS EVE: Grocery-store hours, restaurants, coffee, shopping, church services …

It’s Christmas Eve, and the third night of Hanukkah. As usual, we’ve compiled hopefully handy lists of info:

-Restaurants open today/tonight and/or tomorrow – go here.

The other four lists are in our WSB West Seattle Holiday Guide:

-Grocery-store closing times for tonight, and wha’s closed/open tomorrow
-Coffee shops open today/tonight and/or tomorrow
-Retailers open today/tonight

The grocery list is all-inclusive (as we have “only” 9 in West Seattle); the others include info from businesses that responded to our multiple invitations to send info, as well as a combination of phone calls, website checks, and walking around looking at signs on doors. Not too late for additions – westseattleblog@gmail.com – thank YOU!

    You might bring cash as a backup. Was just at QFC and their card computers were on and off the blink.

      Brandon, wow, if that was the Westwood QFC (or storewide), it looks like I lucked out. I had left there just minutes before the timestamp on your posting here and had no problems with my QFC gift card.  I *did* have a couple of moments of concern; the first when I was only a few minutes into my shopping, maybe 15-20 minutes before checking out, when I (partially) heard an announcement of “cash only”, and apologizing for any inconvenience, but, in whatever way the announcement ended it sounded like it was specific to one register. There were also long lines at that time, which I attributed to shopper volume. The lines had died down by the time I went to the register, but, the second concern was that the lights seemed to be flickering as I was laying my stuff out on the belt.—Mike

    The Admiral Theater will be open Christmas Day.  First show starts at 3:15.  The premiere of the new “Little Women” adaptation starts at 4:00.

      Good point, I meant to add that to the guide.

    I know it’s a holiday but it’s also Tuesday. Any sign of our favorite mascot, Admiral Turkey?

    • WSB December 24, 2019 (10:58 am)

      Yes, actually, I will be publishing a separate #TurkeyTuesday in a bit, thanks to some sightings!
