My top favorite-est 3 most important best:
3. Mecca Cafe (Queen Anne)
2. Twilight Exit (Madison)
1. Mars Bar (Eastlake)
All because they have good music on them.
I agree on your #1 pick, no doubt. When I saw the post title, I immediately thought “P.I.” On more than one occasion, I have had to point out Johnny Cash’s deserved and appropriate placement amongst all the other punk greats in there.
The last time I was in the Monkey Pub, their ‘box was a mirror image of the P.I. but it included Zen Guerrilla, which I have never seen anywhere else. Their cover of Bowie’s “Moonage Daydream” is a face-melter.

Awesome to see the PI on here, up in my old ‘hood. Totally agree with you on the old-school jukebox. I am completely overwhelmed with the digital ones, and as a result I don’t even bother with them (unless I want to blast that ultra-cheesy top 40 hit and get my dance on…which requires several drinks in me first). I’ll add that Linda’s has an awesome Juke-box as well. I’m always pleased when I go there (love seeing stuff like Ratatat and CYHSY on there) and find myself hovering over the JB, stuffing one dollar bills to no end, AND my songs actually get play while I’m there!!!
