A deluge of Stranger readers voted on their favorite Seattle bartenders, and we profiled the five winners for the 2019 edition of our Happy Hour Guide. This is Morgan, who you can find behind the bar at the Pine Box (1600 Melrose Ave) on Capitol Hill Tuesdays and Wednesdays during happy hour, and on Friday and Saturday nights.
How did you get into bartending and how long have you been at it?
I started working in bars as a cocktail waitress when I was 20, and I bothered my bosses until they gave me bartending shifts. I’ve been bartending for almost 11 years.
What do you love most about your job?
I enjoy the friendship in bars. Whether it be with my coworkers, regulars, or complete strangers. There’s something special about the way people connect over a beer or cocktail.
