Sip and savor the taste of fall

Foggy Noggin released its fall seasonal beers, including its Blackberry Bitter and Bit O'Beaver, which is an English Bitter.
The Hop and Hound is also satiating your fall-loving palette with pumpkin beers, ciders, and cans of the King Size Snickers Beer for the adventurous.
The Cottage is serving weekly farm-to-table specials with seasonal ingredients from local farms.

Autumn activities in Bothell

Relish fall’s crisp air and breathtaking scenery by taking up a few activities that are best experienced this season. Need some inspiration? Here are a few suggestions for things to do in Bothell and our surrounding towns:

Hop into a hot air balloon with Over the Rainbow Hot Air Balloon Rides and see Bothell from a whole new perspective. The company offers sunrise rides with champagne and juice toasts, and sunset rides with a wine tasting experience.
Visit Yakima Fruit Market before it closes for the season on Halloween. Be sure to stop by and check out their fall offerings, pick up one of the Spooky Gourd Packs and fall flowers as souvenirs.
Walk — or bike! — through Bothell Landing, and the nearby Burke-Gilman Trail/Sammamish River Trail and North Creek Trail. If you’re looking for the ultimate leaf-peeping spots, check out our list of favorite foliage spots in and near Bothell.
It’s a tradition for a reason: Pick some pumpkins at Thomas Family Farm, Bob’s Corn & Pumpkin Farm, or Craven Farm. We’ve also rounded up a list of pumpkin patches near Bothell.
Attend a local Bothell event! Kro Bar is hosting a costume contest and a ghost story reading at the end of the month (along with exclusive Halloween food and beverage pairings for you to try).
