Seattle's Oldest  Saloon   Est. 1892 As hands-on owner of The Central, I spend a lot of time here.     Among all of us that work here, we eat many meals, listen to and hire some of the best bands around, and have a lot of conversation with regulars and new customers alike. We wouldn't have it any other way. Our staff and regular customers know they can make suggestions anytime to myself and other employees and expect consideration and action. Staff and customer input helps us avoid problems and make needed adjustments. Also, we get a great recipe from time to time!     Over many years we have collectively been in this business, we have come to the same conclusions and founded our working relationship accordingly. We think our customers should be treated as we want to be when visiting another establishment. A good friendly attitude and attentive service, with prices and servings structured to give you great value for hard-earned money. Any time you visit us we want things right for you: our new and old customer. We firmly believe that "word of mouth" is the best advertisement of all.  —Thank you, Guy Curtis, Saloon Keeper
