Editorial Review for Norm's Eatery & Ale House – by Paul Fontana
The Scene
To the uninitiated, the name may bring to mind a portly TV barfly, but this Fremont spot is, in fact, named after a dog, which is obvious enough upon entry--Norm and his canine pals adorn much of the wall space. Featuring a nightly food special dubbed the "Doggie Bowl," the theme may be just a little too much for some, particularly cat people. The space is high on comfort, with a handsome bar, couches and booths for dining. It aims for a broad audience--smoking is prohibited and a kids' menu is available.
The Draw
The atmosphere is decidedly laid-back, something that sets it in stark contrast to its raucous neighbor, the Ballroom. The beer selection is sure to satisfy, and cocktails are stiff enough to grab your attention. Food is solid (the Three Pepper Burger is a winner), but some other items could stand to be more boldly spiced.

The warmed olive oil infused with basil and garlic over brie, served with sliced pears and baquette is incredible!

My husband and I (and our pup) have wanted to try this place for a while. We embarked on a bike ride from Magnolia through Ballard and were ready for lunch when we got to Fremont. Problem...dog in tow and we hate tieing her up outside, so we dropped into Norm's. We were impressed to find a great menu, it was hard to pick just one item and friendly staff. They were a little slow but very friendly and it made for a relaxing lunch with our pouch by our feet. I had the Beatrice sandwich, loaded with turkey, swiss and sauerkraut accompanied by homemade potatoe chips and delicious slaw. My husband has a burger that was equally, if not more, delicious. It was great to find a place that has a great atmosphere and tempting bar food. We can't wait to come back and try the other enticing menu items like cornmeal calamari and funeral fries!
Pros: Great food
Cons: parking could be difficult
