The city's parks could soon be serving up a variety of new dining options if Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) has its way. SPR is officially on the lookout for entrepreneurs and businesses to step in and shake up the snack scene in several of the city's green spaces. Interested parties have been invited to submit their proposals for both food and non-food concessions across numerous popular locations, according to the Seattle Parks and Recreation.
The call to action was announced on December 6, with SPR keen to quickly find concessionaires ready to cater to park-goers next season. The competitive process to score a coveted permit began to actively seek applicants on the same day. Those looking to take advantage can find all the necessary details, including a FAQ, application information, and the online application itself on the official Concessions page, as per the Seattle Parks and Recreation.
The effort to diversify the park dining experience spans several popular locations, from the sandy shores of Alki Beach to the tranquil backdrop of Lincoln Park. Other notable spots up for grabs include Cal Anderson Park, Carkeek Park, Jefferson Park, Lake Union Park, Mounger Pool, Magnuson Park, Seward Park, Volunteer Park, Golden Gardens, and many lifeguarded swimming beach spots, as reported by the Seattle Parks and Recreation.
