The BalMar 4-6pm and 10-close daily. SeattleBarfly landed there on a hot afternoon visiting friends and we all enjoyed the place. I do remember generous drinks, nice eats like the dugeness crab cakes and Kobe beef 'Swedish Meatballs'.. And it all was easy on the pocketbook. Nice staff too -they helped me feel at home until my pals arrived. Aahh. Located in a classic remodeled 1920's Ballard department store with lotsa open brick and woodwork. Perfect for a date. Call about booking the whole upstairs for private parties. 5449 Ballard Ave NW. (206) 297-0500.

Ballard's got a new brothel but thanks to the sinfully good eats the neighbors aren't complaining. Happy hour unknown; I just like the place for food. 5327 Ballard Ave NW, Seattle, WA. (206) 783-9710 

Matador, The  4-6pm and 10-close daily. No drink specials but $4 happy food. Peso’s sister restaurant. Ballard. 2221 NW Market St. 206-297-2855

Hatties Hat Stiff drinks, excellent pub grub, and a neighborhood feel that has earned this Ballard diner legendary status. 5231 Ballard Ave NW, Seattle, WA. (206) 784-0175
