Lucky Strike is the dance club where you’ll get lucky with Seattle cougars
They don’t call it Lucky Strike for nothing! If you’re searching for cougar bars in pursuit of an attractive older woman, Lucky Strike is for you. Located at 700 Bellevue Way NE, this venue is one of the best to draw in a sexy single while on the dance floor. This is surely the place to stare into each other's eyes and sway your hips.
If you prefer not to dance, try out one of Lucky Strike’s 16 full-sized bowling lanes while enjoying a tasty cocktail mix. And don’t forget to try out one of the arcade games where there are many elder females enjoying healthy competition.
Dating apps are also really good for meeting cougars in Seattle
These days it's so much easier to meet women online than it is in real life. So if you want to make meeting cougars ten times easier, these are the apps you should try.
AFF is the top Seattle cougar dating site for no-strings fun (try it free)
eHarmony is still our favorite when it comes to longer-term relationships with cougars in Seattle but AFF (which has a great free trial) is even better for short-term sexy fun. If you are not really interested in "dating" and just want to jump into bed this is the site you need to be on.
It’s hard NOT to recommend that guys at least check out AFF (you can try them for free with the links above after all). We have seen a lot of guys find success using it. And most of those guys have been pretty average in the looks department. With that kind of success and how little time it takes to use there really isn’t a downside.
AFF has been around since 2006 and has over 50,000,000 active users. Unlike Tinder, which really only attracts women under 30, there are a lot of cougars on AFF (a surprising number actually).
In our experience, most guys are going to get the top results meeting single cougars who aren't looking for a commitment using AFF.
Not everyone has the time or desire to take a woman out on a full date (or multiple dates) before taking her home. With this site, you can skip most of the upfront work and start having fun fast.
We also do an annual review of the hookup apps that are working locally and AFF has been our favorite for meeting women 30+ for a while now. Give their free trial a shot and see who is looking in your neighborhood.
When we're after relationships, eHarmony is our favorite way to meet cougars (try it free)
We love a good cougar bar as much as the next guy. But there are times when you just want to hang out at home while meeting hot older women. There are also a lot of Seattle cougars who just don't spend any time in bars and clubs any longer. eHarmony (which has a great trial) really helped us out.
While there may be a ton of apps out there, none of them are as good as eHarmony when it comes to helping you meet single cougars. We've spent a lot of time rating and ranking over 100 different cougar dating sites and apps and this is what we really like about it:
They just have the most Seattle cougars using it
While their 7,000,000 plus membership doesn't make it the biggest site around, in our experience they have BY FAR the most real cougars using it. We're talking about attractive, women over 35 who are interested in dating both younger and older men.
Most women who use eHarmony are ACTUAL COUGARS. You won't find that anywhere else!
If you've tried to use more general dating sites in the past you know how hard it can be to find a real cougar. You have to sift through hundreds of profiles and MAYBE get lucky and find one.
The women are REALLY open to dating younger guys (and older guys)
A lot of women out there feel like there's a social stigma against dating younger guys. It's totally fine if a guy dates a younger woman but when a woman dates a younger guy it's different.
Because of this, a lot of women who are interested in dating younger guys don't advertise it, even on dating websites or when talking to younger guys in public.
With eHarmony, every woman is interested in guys of various ages. You 100% know that every woman you message wants to meet up with guys in your age range. It makes the process so much easier and more enjoyable.
It saves a ton of time and money
Spending any amount of time in a bar is expensive. You never know if any attractive cougars will even show up. If you want to make the most of your time and money a quality dating site or app is the best way to go.
You have to change your approach to change your results!
You shouldn't completely stop going out but being able to meet women 24/7 regardless of where you are is extremely powerful!
Do yourself a favor and give eHarmony's trial a shot here. It's easy to get set up and it is the best option for making a big improvement in your dating life that we've found. Try it!

Vito’s is the upscale lounge for attracting cougars in Seattle
When you are in the mood for cougar bars in Seattle that are upscale in their ambiance and selection of females - get right over to Vito’s. Catch the attention of a sophisticated woman over the sounds of Vito’s grand piano, jazz musicians, and superbly talented singers.
Older women are known to congregate at Vito’s for its constant celebrity sightings and people-watching culture. So put on your most sophisticated look and pull up a seat at the bar for drinks over Happy Hour and Vito’s Italian eats.
In Vito’s special section coincidentally called The Cougar Room, you may find a sexy lady that lives up to that description.

Top Seattle Cougar Bars and Cougar Clubs
There are a few good spots in Seattle to meet hot single cougars. With almost a million residents, the demand for fun vibey clubs and bars is high...and also, fulfilling. Based on our experience, and our friends in Seattle, we combined a list of the perfect cougar bars and clubs in Seattle.
All you need is to dress well, show up, and bring your A-game to the place because cougars won't always be easy to hook up. So expect a few teases along the way about your age or the fact that she might be making more money than you. Either way, you gotta be cool, and you gotta be prepared.
To go where?
Any of these venues are good to meet hot cougars in Seattle:
- Alibi Room - 85 Pike St
- Daniel's Broiler - 809 Fairview Pl N
- Marco Polo - 5613 4th Ave S
- Kangaroo and Kiwi - 2026 NW Market St
- Vito's - 927 9th Ave
- Joey - 800 Bellevue Way NE Ste 118, Bellevue
- The Matador - 7824 NE Leary Way, Redmond
- Getaway Tavern - 24309 56th Ave W, Mountlake Terrace
- Channel Marker - 120 W Dayton St d1, Edmonds
Also, don't stick to busy downtown bars and clubs. Most cougars will choose to hit their 6/10 local bar than drive for an hour to a 9/10 fancy club.
Why?
Age, time, and responsibilities.
So, if you have time, try to hit the likes of Bellevue, Redmond, and Mountlake Terrace. You'll like it there too.

Meet Cougars in Seattle During the Day
How often would you, a cougar, or anybody go to the club each week...Once, twice, five times?
Now compare that to how often you go to the gym, buy coffee, hit the supermarket, or go shopping..
Like these places:
- Northgate Mall - 401 NE Northgate Way
- Alki Beach
- Westlake Center - 400 Pine St
- Phinney Ridge Yoga - 6615 Dayton Ave N
- The Seattle Gym - 1530 Queen Anne Ave N
- PRO Club – Seattle
- Century Ballroom - 915 E Pine St
- The Zig Zag Café - 1501 Western Ave Ste 202
Got the idea?
It's much easier to approach women during the day than in busy bars. Why?
The competition is fierce: Many guys are fighting for her limited attention
She's off guard: From years of experience, most girls are less dismissive during the day not because they are super kind - some really are - but because they don't get the time to put on the blank B face. If you surprise her - in a good way - most women won't give you the attitude.
Your looks will matter less: Fame fortune and looks matter a lot with women, but character is also rare. When you approach her alone, most of the focus will be on your attitude not looks. Ever heard of the homeless New Yorker who picks up hot chicks on the streets of Manhattan?
No?
Without further ado...
The Guide to Cougar Dating in Seattle
Now that we've told you where to pick them up, it's time to show you where to take out how Seattle cougars, because it can get tricky..
First off, not all cougars will sleep with you on the first date. As much as I hate this idea, it's still true.
Like it or not, women are different. Some will be down for a quickie while others are shy, busy, or just can't get a babysitter. Some - mostly those looking for a relationship - will also want to take it slow just to make sure you're the right partner.
All that leads to one thing: Where you take her will depend on your goals and her blueprint.
This can be summed up in three categories:
If you just want to keep it casual take her to a lounge
If you think you're charming enough to lure her to your bedroom, then start the night with a cool bar or lounge. It shouldn't so fancy that it breaks your wallet, you just need a cool place that is both Quiet enough to share some cool stories with her, and at a walking distance from your place
You can find that in the following spots:
- Fog Room - 1610 2nd Ave
- Bathtub Gin & Co. - 2205 2nd Ave
- Le Pichet - 1933 1st Ave
- The Nest Rooftop Bar - 110 Stewart St
- Frolik - 1415 5th Ave
- Captain Blacks - 129 Belmont Ave E
- Single Shot - 611 Summit Ave E
If you're more serious about dating her one of these activities
If the plan is a long-term partner then go for a cool fun experience. That can be enough to lower down her guards.
You can do anything from a romantic walk in the park to watching a live show together.
Here are some of our favorite spots:
- Laughs Comedy Club - 5220 Roosevelt Way NE
- Comedy Underground - 109 S Washington St
- The Seattle Great Wheel - 1301 Alaskan Way
- Dimitriou's Jazz Alley - 2033 6th Ave
- Garage - 1130 Broadway
- Egan's Ballard Jam House - 1707 NW Market St
- Roxbury Lanes - 2823 SW Roxbury St
- Kerry Park - 211 W Highland Dr
- Golden Gardens Park - 8498 Seaview Pl NW
If she's very old school you can always do a dinner date
I don't like dinner dates. They're expensive, and if she caught you chewing while talking, that's a forever turn-off.
Still, some women - especially cougars - are into dinner dates. Probably cause they're safe and give them something to brag about with their girlfriends.
Anyway, these are some of our favorite romantic restaurants for dining with cougars in Seattle:
- Canlis - 2576 Aurora Ave N
- The Corson Building - 5609 Corson Ave S
- Joule - 3506 Stone Way N
- Bateau - 1040 E Union St
- Petra - 2501 4th Ave
- Six Seven restaurant - 2411 Alaskan Way
- Opus Co. - 7410 Greenwood Ave N
