There are days when bar and grill food calls to you. The voice is firm, usually baritone and it’s clear that the only acceptable choices for lunch or dinner are a bacon burger (with melted cheese), a grilled chicken quesadilla or that Philly Steak sandwich that makes everything better with just one bite. On those days, there really is only one way to go –DeLuxe.

The DeLuxe Bar & Grill has been “A Capitol Hill Institution Since 1962.”Seriously, that’s almost 50 years dedicated to perfecting The DeLuxe experience. Famous for the quality and variety of its burgers, DeLuxe offers every delicious burger option and combination you can imagine. The menu also features appetizers, sandwiches, salads, entrees and daily specials. Ingredients are fresh, the staff is friendly and the bar has over 19 taps with both European and local brews rotating in seasonally. Cocktails and wine are on the menu too! Today’s Ideal doubles your money and for $10 you get $20 worth of burgers, sandwiches, and more. Call a friend, heed the voice and get thee to DeLuxe!

When you purchase Daily Deals from Ideal Network, 20%-25% of your purchase becomes a contribution to the local non profit of your choice to fund specific, measurable community projects!

Most states have made drinking alcohol at home illegal due to the proliferation of home facial-tattoo machines. Enjoy alcohol in public with today's deal: for $12, you get $25 worth of bar fare and drinks at The Chapel Bar in Capitol Hill.

Situated inside an old mortuary, The Chapel Bar offers a delectable menu of tasty body fuel in a setting distinctively outfitted with 1920s-style architecture. Guests can start with six pieces of chef-selected bruschetta ($7) or a sextet of sake-glazed wing with Asian cucumber salad ($6). While gulping a glass of 12-year, single-malt Glenlivet ($8); a murder martini with RedRum, triple sec, and cranberry juice ($8); or a mint gimlet made with mint tree sap ($9), bar patrons can halt their hopping with a garden fresca’s matrimony of goat cheese, bell peppers, and eggplant on flatbread ($9). Main plates include four-cheese macaroni, consisting of asiago, cheddar, fontina, and parmesan ($8), and the chapel burger, which is crafted ex nihilo into a meatcake piled with charred red peppers, fontina, and basil aioli ($10).

The Chapel Bar, conveniently located near the Paramount Theater, is well known for its extensive list of nearly 40 house martinis, which feature nifty names such as Curious George, Color Purple, and The Milkman’s Daughter. A live DJ drums ears with all kinds of peppy music on Friday and Saturday nights (a cover charge applies); other evenings feature mellow lounge grooves and bonfire-side bongo slams. The bar’s inner sanctuary is dimly lit, like purgatory’s coat closet, and contrasts dark-wood paneling with the pure whiteness of barstools and booths. Stop in for a bite and beverage with today’s Groupon.

Not valid during happy hour or toward the cover charge.

Visiting a spa or salon for self-beautifying purposes is convenient, relaxing, and more legal than taking a mineral bath in a public fountain.

A city is a place of tremendous variety, usually constructed upon rock ‘n’ roll. Plumb the secret depths of Seattle with today's Groupon, which offers you a choice of two tours from Gray Line of Seattle:

• $13 for a Hop-On Hop-Off Double-Decker Tour (a $23 value, including tax). This Groupon will give you access to the Hop-On Hop-Off tour for two days. See the sidebar to the right for all eight pick-up/drop-off locations.
• $19 for a 3.5-hour City Sights Tour with an 8:30 a.m. departure (a $38 value, including tax)

The 2010 tour season ends October 31, and the 2011 season begins May 15. Today's deal expires June 30, 2011.

Gray Line's Hop-On Hop-Off Tour buses depart every 30 minutes from eight centrally located stops, making it easy to take in the sights of Seattle at your own pace. Bound along the waterfront. Watch the bus stop for flying-fish crossings at Pike Place Market. Dangle from the ledge of the Space Needle while your silent-movie villain fiancé cackles maniacally. Take to the stage at the opera house and belt out your favorite aria from Final Fantasy VI. Sports fanatics, meanwhile, can exit at Pioneer Square—the home of the Seahawks and the hospice of this season's Mariners. When you finish, simply hop aboard the next bus and you'll be whisked off to the downtown shopping district or Belltown or whatever your next destination is without the hassle of finding a sitter for your car.

To really get under the city's skin without digging elaborate tunnels and angering the city's moleman population, the City Sights Tour ventures beyond the core of downtown, departing at 8:30 a.m. in a single-decker vehicle. Along with stops in the Asia-infused International District and the public-art-congested Fremont, you'll get to merpeople-watch from the underwater viewing room at the Hiram Chittenden Locks. Gray Line's tour guides will also treat you to a taste, smell, and feel of coffee beans as they are transformed from raw beans into roasted morning potion and beyond (depending on how much you sample). Tour groups will also visit one of Seattle's oldest glassblowing studios, where local artisans huff and puff heirloom-quality collectibles into being. Whether you just arrived to the Emerald City or have lived here long enough for your head to evolve a retractable umbrella, a tour from Gray Line will show you a new side to what is widely considered the Seattle of the Pacific Northwest.

Call (206) 626-5200 to reserve your tour seat for the City Sights Tour at least 48 hours in advance.

People eat three times a day to prevent mouthy mouths from brashly blurting out their distaste for the rest of the digestive system. Today's Groupon prevents inner-system quarreling by subduing chatty cheeks with Irish eats: for $10, you get $25 worth of pub fare at Mick Kelly’s Irish Pub, located in Burien.

Mick Kelly’s Irish Pub boasts a full menu of eclectic pub fare for lunch and dinner daily. Appetizers range from the elegance of steamed local clams ($8.99 for a half pound, $14.99 for a pound) in a white-wine, garlic, and butter sauce to the potato decadence of seasoned fries ($4.99) baked under a blanket of cheddar cheese and topped with sour cream and green onions. Empty-handed post-auction attendees can make a taste-bud bid on the hearty selection of handheld sandwiches, such as the french dip with a rosemary-shallot au jus ($9.99), whereas the eatery’s Irish specialties promise to make eyes, noses, and mouths smile. Summon a serving of the corned beef and cabbage ($9.99–$11.99) or the slow-cooked Guinness beef stew ($8.99–$10.99) to satisfy a Leopold Bloom–esque appetite, or indulge in the apple-brandy pork chops ($15.99) or spicy prawn penne ($14.99). For guests allergic to the moon, Mick Kelly’s Irish Pub serves up a bounty of brunch bites on Saturday and Sunday mornings from 8 a.m. to noon.

The interior of Mick Kelly’s is sleek and inviting, with warm wood floors and furnishings accented by the white beams in the ceiling. In between careful analyses of limericks, split a serving of the strawberry La Bomba ($5.99), a rich pile of strawberry and amaretto cream spread between layers of almond cake, with a potential roommate and/or reality-show nemesis.

During happy hour, Groupon customers must order items off the pub’s regular menu.

Talking about sports, like winning the lotto and undergoing surgery, goes better with a cold beer. Make every hour happy hour with today's Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of brews and pub food at Harmon Tap Room, located in downtown Tacoma. This Groupon is not valid during happy hour.

The third location for Harmon Brewing Company, Harmon Tap Room serves beers freshly made in the site's 15 barrels, contenting barley-hungry palates with year-round ales and seasonal brews. Both beer enthusiasts and infrequent drinkers will approve of Harmon's frosty selection of pints ($4.50), featuring the Great American Beer Festival–winning Brown's Point ESB. Hops habitués with something to prove can dive into the Point Defiance IPA, while those who drink beers as light as a cloud of Peeps can stick to the easy-drinking Mt. Takhoma Blonde Ale. Stay to sample hearty pub grub from the Tap House's menu. Pizza cravers may find satisfaction in the veggie-friendly Locally Green pizza ($14), topped with an ambrosial amalgamation of basil pesto, herb potato, caramelized onion, and feta cheese.

With long wooden dining apparatuses, couches for flat-screen TV watching, and slick pool tables, Harmon Tap House is a prime hangout well suited to weary office workers, contented construction men, and door-to-door poltergeist salesmen alike. This deal can also be used toward taking home a Harmon brew in the form of a 64-ounce growler ($10).

To commemorate one year of customer savings, early discount bakeries decorated birthday cakes with candied shekels and lit candles with burning papyrus tax returns. Celebrating the one-year anniversary of Groupon's inaugural feature in Seattle, today's deal déjà vus Seatown residents again: for $10, you get $25 worth of gastropub grub and drinks at Del Rey, located in Belltown. Today's Groupon is not valid for happy hour.

Del Rey's chef, Derek Knudsen, infuses classic bar dishes with a gourmand's flair, offering a menu of wash-downable delights, fried yum, and Southwestern staples. After tasting the blackened ahi tuna ($13.95), truffle mac 'n’ cheese ($7.95), and churros with chocolate-Kahlua sauce ($5.95), tone-deaf taste buds find themselves serenading incisors with John Fogerty lyrics. Early feasters can enjoy Saturday- and Sunday-brunch favorites such as the vegetarian breakfast burrito ($7.95) or Kahlua French toast ($6.95), washed down with one of Del Rey's specialty Bloody Marys ($7.50–$8). Bathed in glowing red light, diners settle into intimate booths with selections from Del Rey's stocked bar. More than 100 tequilas spicy up margaritas, including the jalapeño-cucumber ($8) and the triple berry ($7.50), while the Dark N Stormy quenches the thirsts of sadistic weathermen with house-made ginger beer and dark rum ($7.50).

Set in a re-fashioned Paramount Pictures film-storage facility, Del Rey's atmosphere melds its old-school pizzazz with modern panache. Weekday evenings attract more-quiet diners, who set up shop along the outdoor seating area to enjoy gorgeous views of the bay and the friendly service, while late nights bring ambient beats that bounce off the domed ceiling and into the ears and harmonious hips of lively Belltown crowds.

Urbanites who ordinarily hoof it, use public transit, or ride on the backs of men bred for transportation purposes can't resist the convenience of wheels-at-will without the hassles of car ownership. For $35, today's Groupon gets you a one-year Zipcar membership and a $50 driving credit (a $125 total value).

Zipcar makes it easy to reserve an SUV for a winter outing, a truck for heavy hauling, a hybrid for whale saving, or a coupe for couping; there are tons of models you can choose to drive for any occasion or whim. You can even reserve recreational amenities such as bike racks and iPod adaptors (when available). View vehicle availability online, and then reserve the car. Zipcars live in dozens of locations all over the city in nooks near every neighborhood. Each reservation includes driver's insurance and a gas card to fill up the tank. Reservations are billable by the hour or by the day, starting at $7 per hour and $69 per day, and the basic plan includes 180 free miles. This Groupon covers the $25 membership sign-up fee, in addition to your year’s membership ($50)–plus the $50 driving credit, of course.

Signing up is easy; your Groupon will include simple instructions for redeeming on Zipcar's website. Anyone who doesn't meet Zipcar safe-driver requirements will not be eligible for membership but will receive a complete refund in one to two weeks. Note that your membership will automatically renew at the end of your year if you do not cancel it, and your driving credit must be used within the first three months of your membership.

Until public-transit officials make our dream of commuting to work by rollycoaster a reality, we'll have to settle for the adrenaline rush of traditional pick-me-ups. Percolate perkiness with today's Groupon: stock up on coffee, tea, and more at Zoka Coffee Roasters & Tea Company with your choice of two deal types:

• For $5, you get $10 worth of in-store purchases at one of Zoka Coffee's three Washington locations.
• For $15, you get $30 worth of coffee and tea products from Zoka’s online store.

Winner of Roast magazine's 2008 Macro Roaster of the Year, Zoka has its brewmasters travel throughout Africa, Asia, and South America in search of the richest coffee deposits. And in-store customers get to sample them all, whether cuddling up with a 12-ounce mocha ($4) inside the dark-wooded walls of Zoka's Greenlake District location, having an intellectual debate with a muffin ($2.50) at the student-filled University of Washington location, or headbanging to the new Slayer espresso machine in the heart of Kirkland. Zoka's pro-level baristas make sure each cup of java juice is fresh and potent by serving it mere minutes after it's roasted, rather than minutes after it's emerged zombie-like from a vacuum-packed plastic tomb. Otherwise, indulge in a pot of tea ($4.25) paired with a scone ($2.50), or find a heartier, bread-based drinking buddy in a breakfast sandwich ($5). Each Zoka location treats customers to two hours of free WiFi and assorted Internet skateboarding.

Those who prefer to indulge in their pleasures online can sample Zoka’s flavors via its online store, including the café's signature dark-bean distillate: Bolivia Central Cup of Excellence Coffee ($24 per 12-ounce bag), a jasmine and cherry-scented "pinot noir of coffee" from the Yungas region that ends in a cinnamon finish. To keep your sweet tooth from eating its young, pick up the Espresso Paladino ($11 per 12-ounce bag) coffee for its honeyed cornucopia of walnuts, caramel, and cocoa flavors. Tea-timers, meanwhile, can browse Zoka's herbal tea varieties, such as the stress-obliterating organic chamomile tea ($8.75 per quarter-pound bag). Whether experienced via fiber optics or reality, Zoka Coffee Roasters & Tea Company's abundance of delicious coffees and teas will keep you awake long enough to finish your thesis on the effects of sleep deprivation.

Anyone who’s tried nailing an oven-fresh pizza pie to a wall knows that pizza looks better briefly propped on a five-finger pedestal. Today’s Groupon puts $25 worth of pizza back where it performs best. For $10, you get $25 worth of pizza, pasta, burgers, beer, and more at Bison Creek Pizza, located inside the historic Burien Theater.

All of the savory pies on Bison Creek's menu are crafted from homemade whole wheat or regular dough and sprinkled with 100% real cheese with your choice of sauce (trailblazer barbecue, zesty red, garlic cream, or primo pesto). Try Rod's Wrangler Roundup ($13–$25), which corrals pepperoni, pineapple, green peps, sausage, and fresh garlic on a barbecue-covered base. Vegetarians, meanwhile, will giddy up over the veggie supreme ($12–$24) smacked with a garden-fresh medley of mushrooms, olives, onions, green peps, tomatoes, and pineapple. Wheat and gluten-free pizzas will appease the allergic, and the lil bandit's menu caters to teenier tastes. While waiting for your pizza to pupate from its oven cocoon, ward off vampires and coworkers who keep "accidentally" almost kissing you with an order of garlic bread ($4), or branch out into chicken strippers ($7.95) dunked in barbecue sauce or homemade ranch. Diners who already had pizza for breakfast can bury their hunger-sorrows in a Bison Creek quarter-pounder ($6.95) or a baked plate of smoked gouda mac 'n' cheese with bacon ($9.95) before closing with a giant chocolate chip cookie ($5.25) that feeds two.

Bison Creek occasionally plays host to a roving selection of live music, with no cover for those 21 and older. So whether the night's house band is the AC/DC-esque Chrome Molly (July 17) or a suspiciously accurate Def Leppard "tribute band," get in the party spirit with beverages from the bar, including Skittles-infused vodka, spiked fruity punches, and house wines. Stampede to the historic Burien Theater and enjoy a rowdy late-night slice, to grab a carbtastic lunch, or just to treat allergic ears to a night of gluten-free local tunes with today's Groupon.

Funds are a little short for a full-blown Euro excursion. The next best thing? A trip to Danube Bistro, where the best of Europe is brought to you.

Ever heard of a restaurant that serves German, Hungarian, Czech, Slovak, Russian, AND Italian cuisine? Well, now you have -- thanks to Danube Bistro, a Bellevue gem that prides itself on authentic cuisine from each of these regions and more. From fresh salads and sandwiches to homemade goulash and hearty stews, it takes customers on a culinary journey that's as memorable as it is diverse.

Dive into Danube with a plate of Assorted Sausages, Salamis, and Cheese from Slovakia and Hungary, or Garlic Potato Pancakes "Bramborak", a favorite starter in the Danube region. Next, take a trip to the Czech Republic with Baked Beef Tenderloin "Sví?ková", a traditional Czech dish made with creamy vegetable sauce and served with homemade bread dumplings. Mini Potato Dumplings "Bryndzové Halusky" tempt the palate with a tender layer of imported Slovak sheep's cheese and smoked bacon, and the Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli will take you straight to the heart of the Italian kitchen.

What's more, Danube Bistro uses the freshest organic ingredients from the Northwest to create the tastes of eastern and western Europe. (Cool mash-up? We think so.)

* It's different than the usual "European cuisine". In addition to more familiar Italian dishes he might have seen before, Danube Bistro also offers traditional selections from Germany, Hungary, Russia, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic. That means he can take the flavor excursion of a lifetime without even leaving the city.
* It's known for great service. According to repeat customers, Danube Bistro knows how to treat its guests right. Awesome food and awesome people? That's a winning pair if we've ever seen one.

If you ask us, this is one Bistro to rule them all.

Sight, the workhorse of the five senses, puts in too many hours keeping man from falling in manholes. Give the most overworked sense a vacation with today's Groupon: an individual or family/dual membership to the Frye Art Museum on First Hill. Purchase one of the following Groupons for a yearlong membership:

• $35 for a family/dual membership (a $75 value)
• $25 for an individual membership (a $50 value)

Although admission to the Frye Museum's art-filled halls is always free for everyone, individual museum membership treats you to an exquisitely oil-painted cornucopia of exclusive perks, including:

• Access to exclusive exhibition opening receptions and members-only events, including Tea and Tours and members' happy hours.
• Opportunities to learn more about art with lectures, films, and music thanks to free or discounted tickets and the ability to reserve tickets in advance
• A subscription to FRYE, the museum's membership publication
• A 10% discount at the museum store and invitations to members-only sales
• A 10% discount at Daniel Smith Artists' Materials
• A 25% discount at all U-Frame It stores

Family/dual memberships (for up to two adults and all children under 18), meanwhile, will receive all of the above benefits, plus notification of special family-focused museum events.

The Frye Art Museum appeared on the world's canvas in 1952 from a 232-piece private collection of primarily late-19th- and early-20th-century German paintings owned by Seattle art aficionados Charles and Emma Frye. The museum's current permanent collection was built on that original donation, and consists of mostly American and German paintings and works on paper, hosting a rotating cast of temporary exhibitions and upcoming exhibitions. Tête-à-tête recreates Charles and Emma's original home gallery, right down to the Oriental carpets, potted silk palms, the gossip chairs where they gossiped about Gossip Girls, and some of the finest examples of Secessionist artwork—stuffed floor-to-ceiling in the salon-style format to overload the senses in the best way possible, much like getting crushed under an avalanche of adorable baby penguins. Historians, meanwhile, will discover a silent black-and-white window into the Klondike boom of the early 20th century in A Day in Skaguay, which portrays the silent past before sound was invented. And coming just in time for Halloween are Seance: Albert Von Keller and the Occult and the ambitious, mind-bending installations of Implied Violence: Yes and More and Yes and Yes and Why.

Art—like a good haircut or a very special episode of Alf—is made to be viewed and to tickle deeper thought. Seize this opportunity to enrich your fallow eye-soil, or gift this Groupon to expand the horizon of any art-collecting uncle who refuses to buy a painting that doesn't have a dog playing poker in it.

Not valid for existing members. Must redeem Groupon within three months.

Hot potato, the earliest dish designed to be passed, is nearly extinct due to the constant ravages of grade school appetites. Today's Groupon revives the tradition of shifting sustenance: for $20, you get $40 worth of tapas and drinks at Pintxo.

The newly unveiled Belltown tapateria offers up a mélange of Spanish-inspired small plates and handcrafted cocktails in a chic, centrally located eatery that boasts a warm and inviting atmosphere complete with exposed brick walls, warm wood accents, and relatively few bull stampedes. Pintxo's menu is helpfully separated into hot (calientes), cold (frios), or sandwichesque (bocadillos) supper fare—all served in sharable, petite portions that allow for many accidental hand-touches and few interruptions in conversation. Warm your belly with a caliente dose of the steamed clams and mussels ($10) prepared in a vegetable broth, or opt for a sweetened serving of swine with an order of bacon-wrapped, goat-cheese-enhanced dates ($4). Bocadillo offerings include a trio of sliders (tuna, grilled veggie, and pork, $7.50). And if you and your just-met soulmate find yourself finishing each other's dirty limericks, frio fare such as a plate of Spanish cheese ($9) or sliced tomato atop garlic-rubbed crostini ($4) will chill heated passions before they lead to heaving bosoms and embarrassing public bodice rippings.

Pintxo's alcohol alchemists are quite adept at conjuring lofty spirits into cauldrons of hand-crafted cocktails for every occasion. So bring the book club to Belltown and share conflicting interpretations of His Dark Materials over the lime, gin, cucumber, and elderflower-enhanced Flor de Pintxo ($11), or bring a dashing date to the dimly lit locale for a romantic glass of freshly fruited sangria ($6.50). And if it's just you and your muchachos, do it like they do it on the streets of Barcelona with a glass of kalimotxo (red wine and Mexican Coke, $5). Nibble, savor, and talk until you're full of food, wine, and intoxicating discourse with today's Groupon to Pintxo.

Give sportpinions their proper venue with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of high-quality pub fare and drinks at Sport Restaurant & Bar, located in Fisher Plaza across from the Space Needle.

Stocked with nearly 40 TVs, Sport ensures that your multiple eye implants won't miss any ongoing sports action. A 130" HD flat-screen looms above the bar, and each booth has individual 17" LCD HDTVs, bestowing channel-controlling power to any human operating under their own willpower. Chef John Howie's menu features standard pub grub with an upscale twist for tucking into while cheering on. Thick New England clam chowder wrestles tender sea clams, red potatoes, and smoky bacon in a victorious rich, creamy clam broth ($3/cup, $9.50/large bowl), while a mouth-melting fire-grilled Kobe-beef burger is served on a toasted brioche bun with roasted-onion spread ($14). Barbecue-chicken pizza rounds up applewood-smoked chicken and sweet bell peppers, lassoing them together with fontina and mozzarella cheeses ($9–$12.50). Soothe shout-hoarsened throats with a variety of local and imported tap beers, wine, or specialty cocktails.

Huge windows, brick columns, and dark woodwork create a cozy but open bar space, and the museum-quality memorabilia displayed in cases highlights 100 years of Seattle sports as well as sport-based treasures, including a Babe Ruth–signed baseball. Outside, domesticated TVs roam the covered patio, and $1 validated parking is available in the Fisher Plaza garage during weekday lunch hours. Bring along a sports-fan pal or sports-ignorant literature professor and savor your choice of comestibles, potables, and high-fives or confused stares.
