Kyle BunchAugust 25, 2014Epitome of a great neighborhood bar: friendly bartenders, stiff cocktails, and a good vibe.
Ruby BahianAugust 13, 2013On Mondays, go for their .27 wings & stay for the movie out back in the patio. They're also one of the few bars that have Caldera on tap, an IPA atypical of its kind.
Come here every Monday for .27 wings! So yummy. Classic and an extra special sauce wing. Today is Jalepeno BBQ Bacon and its amazing!
Happy hour specials are great - especially for pitchers of craft beer. The burgers are great and so are the wings.
This place feels like the old Seattle. Except on Friday and Saturday nights. Then it’s filled with new Seattle.
The staff here are awesome, so friendly hard working and fun. Had my birthday here and they took awesome care of us.
Seattle MetNovember 9, 2011Some joints stay new forever; some are old souls from the moment they blow the foam off the inaugural pint. That's King's Hardware. Credit Linda Derschang and partners for its blazing authenticity. Read more
melisa balcıDecember 30, 2014Their nachos come with a soft tortilla on the bottom so you can so up all the goodies in the bottom. Genius.
Think of King's as the very best waiting room a kick ass barbershop has ever had. Add to that: fresh squeezed juices & locally sourced meats
Awesome beer selection! Back patio is perfect during the summer. It also has heaters for those cooler nights. Also, who can resist a $.25 game of skee ball?
Denise FMarch 14, 2017The service is great, they have good beers and ok drinks. The atmosphere is the best thing there. Hot wings are just OK.- Have a Kestrel. It's a great cocktail with gin, gin, and vermouth. Oh and lemon. Trust me.
Super friendly, hardworking staff and incredible burgers
It's cool every night but the weekend. It used to be our Ballard jam, until the visor wearing yuppies from Bellevue rolled in.
Tiffany WongJune 7, 2012Have a skeeball competition! No cash, buy a beer and they will give u rolls of quarters!
Great happy hour on pitchers of micro. The skeeball and buck hunter make the place for me but it's gotten super trendy over the last year.
Joel D'AlessandroJuly 19, 2012some killer cocktails for sure, good atmosphere and very much a Ballard spot
I got the "not too rowdy" discount. I'll take 20% off any day.
Outdoor seating in the back, great happy hour 5-7, so much variety for just the burgers alone, and sweet potato fries (-:
Put your name in for a haircut from rudy's, then grab a beer, play some ski ball and wait to be called!
Michael ChailleMarch 28, 2013Wings are buffalo sauce, and good. Tiny compared to others. Don't avoid, but be forewarned.
$4 Bloody Marys every Sunday! Filled with amazing pickled veggies! Yum!
In BallardJune 24, 2011Any place you can get a pint, play skeeball and get a haircut has to be good!
Watch the special of the day board above the kitchen - the jalapeno poppers are rare but so goddamn worth it if they're available!
Brian CronrathNovember 13, 2012I honestly don't know why this place is so popular. Prices are average, beer is average, service is very sub par and slow, and the crowd I generally compose of cold bitches and douchey assholes.
