About Fado

Fadó is an Irish term meaning 'long ago'. At Fadó we are telling the tale of Ireland's rich and celebrated Pub culture - a culture of hearty food and drink, good music, warm hospitality and friendly banter. In the tradition of Irish Pubs today and long ago, it's the Irish spirit that makes a Fadó.


Fadó Seattle has been serving the public since November of 2000. We are located at the intersection of First and Columbia just blocks away from the historic Pioneer Square district, Pike Place Market, and the beautiful Seattle waterfront. 

Centrally located within downtown, Fadó is just a short jaunt from any downtown lodging or business, offering a peaceful refuge from the daily grind. 

Retreat into one of our many distinct nooks and crannies as we illuminate the pub with the soft light of a hundred candles. Make your way to the bar and enjoy your favorite adult beverage from Seattle and across the pond. A nod to the barman solidifies your choice, a pint of the dark, creamy, stout which is the true soul of Ireland, the finest pint of Guinness in town. 

Take note of the glass, a twenty ounce imperial pint, curved and shaped to fit the palm, one easy motion completes it, the perfect pint. 

Whether it's for a business lunch, a great dinner experience, or to dance and sing along with one of the many great bands that play music almost nightly, grab a pint or three, and enjoy the best craic in Seattle!
