La roquette bar

Roquette is a French-inspired cocktail bar, which means they stock and use a great variety of Chartreuse and things like that. But their bartenders also seem to like mezcal as much as I do. This makes Roquette the perfect cocktail bar. This is my favorite cocktail bar. The drinks are excellent.

From left to right: Roquette's blue storefront in Belltown; the Normande old fashioned; the bar stools waiting for you inside. Back in April, Erik Hakkinen brought word that his new bar Roquette was coming soon —and with it, a particularly French inventory of spirits, wines, and ciders. Right now the cocktail menu is slightly abbreviated with four tipples thus far: the Chambery negroni is a sunshine-yellow tincture whose assertive bitterness gently mellows as it melts around three big ice cubes; a foundation of apple brandy firmly buoys the Normande old fashioned like a boat crossing the English Channel; others are punched-up versions of classics like the Vesper and Mai Tai at Roquette called Best Vesper and Tai du Mai, respectively. Hakkinen says that by the week's end a few more vetted cocktails should appear on the menu, which will build up to 18 or 20 original house drinks eventually. For now, though, it seems industry bar folk and Zig Zag regulars most of whom knew Hakkinen when he was at the storied Pike Place bar are drinking their way down the list. Food will likewise arrive later, but when it does expect a snacky, Euro-styled menu. Along with the growing drink list are wines, beer, some "super low-octane French ciders, and a couple of bubbs. Like the thrumming playlist, which easily shifts from Bobby Womack to Naughty by Nature, Roquette —six tabled areas with matcha-green or cobalt-hued velvet booths, over a dozen dark wood stools at the bar top—lives somewhere between soul a subtle old-school French vibe permeates everything and hip-hop Hakkinen's exacting and measured, but by no means following a rule book here.
