What makes it 68% Baby-Friendly: Elevators and changing tables aid stroller users, yet sudden shouts, fish smells, and scarce quiet corners can overstimulate infants and complicate nursing or soothing breaks for caregivers.
Why 2-4 hours visit duration is ideal for with baby: A 2-4 hour visit lets you watch fish toss shows, explore stalls, and rest with your baby without rushing.
Watch the fish-throwing show:
Stand back at a stroller-friendly spot as fishmongers toss salmon across the counter.
Tip: Arrive early and find a spot at the edge of the crowd to keep your baby safe and calm.
Snap a photo with Rachel the Pig:
Let your baby see the bronze piggy bank and drop coins to support Market charities.
Tip: Park your stroller and use a small donation to get a quick souvenir photo.
Use family restrooms with changing tables:
Find free unisex restrooms equipped with baby changing stations across the Market.
Tip: Ask at the Information Booth for the nearest ADA-accessible restroom near Pike Place Fish.
Rest and nurse at Local Color Café:
Sit in the back lounge to nurse or rest with your baby away from noise.
Tip: Buy a drink to support the café and ask staff for a quiet table in the back room.

A great experience!! We've wanting to go here for decades. It's a great market with a lot of fish to choose from.

There’s also a little alley directly next to the market where people have been putting up gum on the walls for year. It’s another popular attraction in the area and the city makes sure to keep it checked befor...

A great place to visit but I skipped the food experience because of the lines! I loved walking through the alleys and especially the flowers! The market was buzzing with food, culture and my favorite sight: seafood! Everybody seemed nice and know customer service! Not too expensive while I was browsing and the walk to the overlook way was a plus! I loved that while you walk to the market you can s...

Lively atmosphere. From fresh seafood and handmade crafts to quirky shops and street performers, there's something for everyone. The flying fish at the seafood stalls are a fun and iconic experience.

A unique experience in an iconic location, the sights, smells and overall vibe was outstanding. As a tourist you get a rare opportunity to feel local while walking through the market with all the hustle and bustle. Definitely worth the stop, though I would highly recommend using the restroom either before or after visiting Pikes Place as the lines to enter the few public restrooms were insanely lo...
