Description and history

JarrBar operated on Western Avenue at Pike Place Market.[4][5] Bryan Jarr was the owner. Established in 2015,[6] the business served small plates, including seafood and Spanish cuisine.[7][8] Options included anchovies and piquillo peppers.[9] JarrBar also served jars and tins of preserved fish and olives.[10]

In 2017, American chef Andrew Zimmern visited JarrBar while filming for the television series The Zimmern List.[11] JarrBar closed permanently in 2025.[12]

Reception

Aimee Rizzo of The Infatuation wrote, "Pike Place is kind of a crowded mess, but Jarrbar is a little cocktail bar removed from all of the craziness. It reminds us of a galley-style kitchen in a studio apartment, but we can't think of anywhere else we’d rather drink a gin fizz alongside some jamon Iberico and crackers. We also really like the smoked salmon rilettes."[13]
