Drive/train to our first M's game. (Everett, Kent: restaurant, bus)

[wolfdog]

We're driving in from the north, for our first Mariner's game next week. Plan is to park at the north end of the train.
Can anyone recommend a safe parking option there, and restaurant/bar options there, and at the stadium?
Any other info helpful.

Thanks, and BEAT THE YANKS!

Everett Station (Sounder) or Northgate (Sound Transit Link)?

Sounder (8/7/22): https://www.soundtransit.org/get-to-...els-2022-08-07

Northgate Station Garage: https://www.soundtransit.org/ride-wi...station-garage

ST Link Schedule: https://www.soundtransit.org/ride-wi...914%2C1_990005

One of my favorites: Kau Kau BBQ: https://www.kaukaubbq.com/ (Get off at the International District Station and walk to 656 S. King St. Dine-in or take-out. Stick to the BBQ Specialties (Duck, Pork, etc.). ~20 minute walk to T-Mobile or take light rail from the ID Station to the Stadium Station.) Yelp: https://www.yelp.com/biz/kau-kau-barbeque-seattle

Sounder does not work after games.

Yeah, I saw that. I'm looking at Northgate parking, then light rail to the game.

How you getting home?

A few years ago we drove to Kent parked in the free parking garage and caught the Sounder to King Street station which is just north of both stadiums, walked to the game...but to my disappointment there was no Sounder train back to Kent after the game...had to catch a bus and it took about 2+ hours to made it back to Kent. Never again!

Link runs after the game. Sounder does not.

It has to be scheduled, like for this Sunday's game, which I linked: "Trips from Mariners games depart 35 minutes after the game ends." The OP didn't say which game he was going to.

Eh....I guess you just confused me...what's a 'Link' and how does it work?
I am guessing that the Sounder train does run on 'day games' both ways.

Yes, return to Northgate on Link.

^That's what I'd do.
