About this business
A nice spot to drink beer or dine on delicious seafood, this eatery is a refreshing change from the typical dark and smoky pubs of Ballard.

Recommended seafood dishes include pan-fried mussels, oysters on the half shell and the blackened halibut entree. On Thursdays and Saturdays, live blues and rock music is featured.

Great Neighborhood Joint in the Heart of Old Ballard – I have been going to Bad Albert's for well over a decade, and will continue to go for a long time to come. Steve the owner is simply a great guy, who clearly cares about his staff and customers. The staff is always super cool and make time there a lot of fun. Bad Albert's is in Old Ballard so there is a lot to do once your done eating or drinking. Simply put the food is great! I love most of the items on the menu, some of my favorites are the Cajun Chicken and the Dock S... read more
Great Breakfast! – This is my go to spot for breakfast. It is really good, and somewhat undiscovered, so I can always find a seat for me and my friends. Friendly staff and tasty food- and booze if I need it! I recommend the Breakfast Sandwich (aka the Camper Special).
Best pub lunch in Ballard – I work in Ballard and was one of the first customers for lunch when Steve opened Bad Albert's 13 years ago. I love the food. But I do miss the shrimp poorboy and the oyster poorboy sandwiches. I highly recommend the Chicken Albert's with garlic mashed potatoes on Wednesday lunch special. The soups here are to die for. I've tryed them all and every one of them is delicious but my favorites are the Tortilla soup, Andouille Sausage & bean soup and Tomato soup. The Friday night Prime Rib special is ex... read more
Best Burger in town for real – The Best Burgers in town!! and they are huge!!! the fries are good too... lunch can be busy but worth the wait!
Good place; friendly people – This is a good place to go and touch base with real down to earth people and strike up a conversation on the latest topics over a nice cold draft.
Good Bad Albert's Good – Still a great place to go for a great burger and a pint. Bacon, Good Burger, Good Beer, Good Albert's
Best burger! – IMO the Dock Street Burger is absolutely the best burger in Seattle. Hand formed patty, white cheddar cheese, two bacon slices, and dill pickles. YUM!! For those on low carb diets they now offer a bunless version of the burger on the menu. Breakfast is good to very good. My only complaint is the potatoes at breakfast are mediocre. If it was a non-smoking joint I would move in! The only thing lacking was a good happy hour/appetizer menu. They recently remedied that by adding a good happy hour selection.
Tucked away on Ballard Ave - Albert's brewing a multitude of beers, a full bar and a better than pub-grub menu. – The Scene Deep in the heart of Ballard's old business district, this remodeled, single-room pub brings to mind the Garth Brooks song about "friends in low places." Despite its name, Bad Albert ain't that bad after all. Social status aside, Albert's welcomes all types: Hard working locals and yuppies unite. Plop down on a stool at one of the many tall tables or slide into a chair at a low table. The Draw Besides t... read more
shhh!!! let's keep it a secret!!! – I'm hesitant to give them the review they deserve because what makes this place so perfect could be ruined by having too many people... Low key and friendly, with amazing service, fabulous food ---no argument, it's the best burger you'll eat in Seattle and we highly recomend the weekend breakfast--- and it's so clean!!!
