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 the usual pint-accompanying fare, the menu includes treats like pan-roasted mussels, fried oysters, pot stickers, buffalo wings and even cheese…

Best pub lunch in Ballard
by MrMikeN
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 excellent and a perfect lead-in to the live blues music. Ive never been there for the breakfast on the weekend but have heard nothing but good things about it. Great place, great staff. Kudos to Brian and Mary on lunch duty and Steve is super cool, always chatting and joking with every customer.
