Today we're featuring North Everett. Enjoy!
Cafe Zippy
1502 Rucker Avenue
(425) 303-0474
Tucked into leafy Northwest Neighborhood, Cafe Zippy is an Everett classic. Owner Marilyn has been serving up espresso and organic snacks for over a decade.
Check out this spot for dining al fresco, live music, poetry readings, and walkable accessibility.
Ask about their vegan pie because it's 💯.
Funko
2802 Wetmore Avenue
(425) 783-3616
The toy manufacturer's flagship store is like a small amusement park. Admission is free, but expect to spend some money because this space serves as a retail spot, too. Check out larger-than-life Star Wars characters and Batmen (plural) and peruse Funko merchandise, mostly in the form of their trademark toy, Funko Pops!

Sunken Ship Tattoo / Hot Rod Heidi's
1301 Hewitt Avenue
(425) 303-3344
Hot Rod Heidi's and Sunken Ship share a storefront on Hewitt. The best tattoo shop in town. Solid work from all of the artists. Mostly you have to book an appointment, but they do take walk-ins as they're able. Have time to kill while your pal gets inked?
Peruse catered vintage clothing and accessories at Hod Rod Heidi's. Real gems, folks. Dig retro prints? Read more about the vintage shop here.
Choux Choux Bakery
2900 Grand Avenue

Where to start? Get a cappuccino, pick out some colorful macaroons, buy a rustic loaf for later. Then select your favorite vinyl record to throw on the sound system.
