Brendan GotchJanuary 26, 2016Plenty of Seahawks fans here, but if you're part of the Panthers diaspora, this is the place to be! At least one TV will have the game, and you're guaranteed to find a few fellow fans.
Robby DelawareJuly 17, 2012Ballard Loft is near the end of Ballard Avenue. They have a nice courtyard out front. Two stories inside. It's usually crowded, but it's far less snobbish than King's Hardware. They have website. Read more
- One of favorites places to watch a game! Great selection of local microbrews and some of the best hotdogs in Seattle. Seahawks, Mariners, Sounders or Huskies- this is the place to be on game day!
Nikki BarronSeptember 7, 2012Great weekly drink specials, we went on a Thursday and they has half off specialty cocktails! Also you can reserve the upstairs loft area for private parties!
Nedy LutfiJune 15, 2010The food itself was wonderful! $5.50 appetizers including nachos, wings, pita and hummus, sliders, tacos, etc. We had the wings, pita and sliders. The pita bread was soft and warm and delicious wit
Kat GFebruary 14, 2018Good happy hour... $6 and $7 appetizers. Sliders and pretzels with beer cheese dip FTW!
Steak tacos are amazing, so are the sliders. Monday nights are happy hour deals from 4pm-close.
Jesse BaldridgeJanuary 8, 2014If you have a group bigger than four, you'll probably need to get here OVER AN HOUR EARLY to get one of the, like, three big tables.
Perfect watching the NFL Draft. Tv's everywhere and the staff will change whatever you want.
Get the sliders, obviously, and if you're looking for an appetizer, go for the chorizo quesadillas.
Todd AlexanderJune 16, 2015Had some good sliders. Wait staff seemed a bit busy for a Sunday but would definitely go back.
Great beer selection here. Always happy with the choices.
KathleenDecember 15, 2013It is like the frozen food section at the grocery store showed up here but with less flavor....don't expect to have your taste buds excited unless you order beer cause that,is the only flavor here.
Get a hotdog and a local beer and enjoy a sporting event. Tuesday is trivia night!
Jon DarveauSeptember 26, 2013Pretty decent selection of beers and bartenders seem to know whats good
Get the 25 ounce mug! Also the staff is great and the owners will take care of you
Shelly StrobeckFebruary 15, 2013Bartender is awesome, female waitress sucks. Waited 20 mins and had to go get our menus after being told she'd be over soon. Another 15 after eating and she acted weird when we brought up the plates
Alkautsar NedyJune 15, 2010Service was good -- water refilled often, food came out fast, etc. The booths we sat in were kind of dingy, and not living in Ballard, it was extremely difficult for us to find it. I had to personal
I'm always washing down my Red Bull vodkas with their fried pickles.
- Jesse BaldridgeJanuary 8, 2014For some reason, it takes coming here three times to realize that it just kinda sucks. Mediocre beer selection, fair to bad service.
