Oh the 24 hr Kirkland Starbucks is still there.

There's another 24 hr one in Northgate.

So there's 2 in the entire greater Seattle area.

But you're right, there are very few places open late even in the U-district.

SO recently finished 7 years of grad school at UW and we’re both happy to not spend much time around U dist at night. She still gets the police alerts and it’s not inspiring - such crazy violent things happening there all the time. In my opinion that could be a reason 24 hr businesses aren’t persisting in that area. But yes this would be a logical place for late night establishments

I’m really surprised about the Northgate location and it really doesn’t make sense to me. The McDonalds next to it is also 24 hour, so maybe it has to do something with being a rest stop for I5?

Salt Lake City oddly enough has (or had?) 24 hour coffee shops that you could hangout at.

I believe the one in Kirkland is not exactly 24 hrs, though close to it. Left the US in 2017, and as of that time, they'd close from 12am to 3am.

Interesting that the Northgate Starbucks closes for just 4 hours every week from Mon 10pm to Tue 2am.
