A neighborhood taproom on NW Market Street in Ballard. Organic dough, fourteen rotating taps, and a wall people come in just to look at.
Hand tossed and made fresh. A plain cheese done properly at one end, curry tikka masala with paneer at the other, and a vegan pie that stands on its own rather than apologizing.
Curry tikka masala, marinated paneer, garlic, red onion, cherry peppers, cilantro.
The one the Infatuation singled out. Squeaky toasted paneer and a sinus-clearing curry.
Tomato, oregano, parmesan, aged mozzarella, pepperoni, hot honey.
Pepperoni cups that curl and crisp at the edges. Hot honey over the top.
Tomato, parmesan, fresh basil, aged and fresh mozzarella, Sicilian sea salt.
The one that tells you whether a kitchen can actually make pizza.
Tomato, vegan mozzarella, garlic, soyrizo, cherry peppers, pineapple.
Fully vegan. The Infatuation called it as satisfying as one with pork and mozzarella.
White sauce, mozzarella, fresh mozzarella, garlic, whipped ricotta.
No tomato. All richness.
White sauce, aged mozzarella, bacon, caramelized onions, BBQ sauce.
Smoke, sweetness and bacon. Not subtle, not trying to be.
We pour from Pacific Northwest breweries and whoever else is making something worth drinking. In autumn that means fresh hop beers straight out of the Yakima Valley, and they do not last.
The list changes constantly, so we keep it where it stays accurate.
See what is pouring right nowSixteen, eight and five ounce, so you can try something without committing to it. Fourteen taps, changing constantly.
A rotating list by the glass and bottle. Natural and organic bottles where they are good and fairly priced, alongside classics that simply drink well.
Fourteen doors of it: craft beer, cider and mead, natural and organic wine, and a proper non-alcoholic shelf. It changes every week and holds far more than we could list here.
Free to play, no booking, no team size. Turn up.
Starting between 6 and 7. Prizes change week to week, anywhere from a free slice to merchandise.
Starting between 6 and 7. Hosted by a neighbor of ours, which is how it should be.
Birthdays, building socials, game nights, office lunches. Give us a day's notice and your order is waiting when you want it, with plates and napkins thrown in. If you live in one of the buildings around us, you are a two minute walk away.
Every Monday through Thursday, until 5pm. Pizza on organic hand tossed dough, craft beer from the rotating taps, and wine by the glass, all at happy hour pricing. Then we carry on into the evening.
Winding down after work or getting in before the evening starts, it is the best few hours of the day at Ballard Beer Box. Ask your server what is on today.
What is on tap, what came out of the oven, and who brought their dog in.
We are a family restaurant that happens to serve very good beer. No cutoff time, no separate room, no awkward conversation at the door. Turn up in whatever you are wearing. The back patio is one of the biggest in Ballard and it fills up the moment the sun comes out.
