Victors has been around forever. I think it was one of the first coffee houses in Redmond. It used to have a book store attached to it. It is cozy warm in the winter with a fireplace, and open with porch seating in the summer.

Nightlife

Voted as the “Best Dive Bar” on the Eastside for many years. The bartenders-waitstaff are awesome. Of course, their Karaoke is best!

Redmond: Small town vibes, but growing fast

 having lived here for most of my adult life I am very impressed with the type of growth that Redmond has experienced over the past 30 years. With the addition of the high tech sector here, we have been very fortunate to increase the diverse population. It is a very safe town to walk around in any time of the day or night. Plenty of places to shop, trails to explore, amazing coffee shops, and great places to eat.
