Virginia Inn is a bar and restaurant in Seattle, Washington's Pike Place Market. Located in the Hotel Livingston, the Inn opened in 1903, four years before the Market.[2] The establishment was a filming location for Sleepless in Seattle and Singles.[3][4] Virginia Inn was slated to close permanently in April 2025,[5] until a lease issue was resolved.[6]
