A hole in the wall getaway from the rest of Ballard. I enjoyed the fish burger and tots. Coleslaw was excellent; one of my favorites. Good beer selection and kind server. It’s not for everyone, but I would prefer this spot over a “more hip” location.

The burgers were tall and tasty, and the beers were cold and refreshing. The only complaint is that when we went to pay, we noticed a “10% inflation fee” on the bill. We didn’t see any signs or anything on the menu indicating there would be such an unusual charge.

Bad Albert’s is small pub style venue in old Ballard where you can get beers on tap or by the bottle along with mixed drinks and wine. Stephen and I went for lunch. Besides our entrées we ordered a crisp chicken salad to share. I had the fish burger. It was okay, but nothing special at that price point. Stephen had a burger dip and thought it was very good. Both meals came with generous portion of large cut fries that made it to the table hot! The salad was okay. I wished they hadn’t over-cooked the chicken tenders. Although the menu did say crisp I wasn’t thinking the batter would be crunchy not the chicken. There are TV screens everywhere and each one broadcasting a different station. I liked the ambient background music, but also would had liked the subtitles turned on to follow the shows. FYI…they are no longer excepting Groupons so might want to trade that purchase back in for bucks.

Great authentic hard-pressed burger and fresh side salad. Came in for a quick lunch, hankering for a great burger and was very pleased with what Bad Albert’s delivered. The bacon, lettuce, tomato, cheese and sauce were all fresh and awesome. I’d take a picture, but all that’s left is the napkin. Fast, friendly service too.

Great karaoke spot in downtown Ballard! A bit small but perfect for small groups, plenty of larger tables and booths.

Always solid, good bar food with good selection of beverages and really good service. A go to for me when I want a great burger, or anything on the menu for that matter, for a good price in Ballard. Not pretentious at all, just a great neighborhood joint.
