It may have closed 20 years ago, but the famous Dog House restaurant in Seattle continues to be a fond memory for the many who dined, drank and socialized there.

A Seattle P-I columnist described it as “an epoch of Seattle history, a virtually non-stop, open-24-hours run of food, booze, music and fellowship.” The restaurant’s sign perhaps said it best: “All roads lead to the Dog House…where friends meet friends in Seattle.”

The Dog House closed on Jan. 31, 1994. This photo, found in the Puget Sound Regional Branch of the State Archives, shows The Dog House in 1937.
