We have a delicious array of eats for brunch and star studded lineups for both shows that we are sure you do not want to miss.

About Water the Rose:

Water the Rose is a community effort led by Caela Bailey, Takiyah Ward and Shadae Simone. After being approached by the owner of the Wildrose Shelley Brothers to help create a mural for the space, the trio saw an opportunity to go bigger. What came of that was a two month effort to redesign, revitalize and breathe new life into the historic space. The hope of Water The Rose is to show by doing how important spaces like this are to the community. With the amount of development and change that is happening in Seattle, and the Wildrose being the only lesbian bar in the region, the team of Water The Rose felt it their duty to roll up their sleeves and reactivate this space to let the people know we want it to stay put.
