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.

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

I absolutely without any reservations would recommend Norms Ale House and Eatery to any dog owner or dog lover (and everyone else for that matter)! This eatery has become a favorite for my husband and I since we can enjoy time out with friends and include our Basenji in on the fun. This has also been wonderful for our dog to get more experience with other dogs and unfamiliar people. The food is actually quite good in my opinion and much of the menu can be tweaked for those on a vegetarian diet (My husband and I both are vegetarian). My friend Katey assures me that the food with meat products in it is delicious too! They have a great variety of drink options also (beer, wine, specialty drinks, non-alcoholic). The service is always fast and the wait staff are so kind and sweet each time we are there. We have become such regulars now that in fact one of the waitresses recognizes our pup and we have had some great conversations with her during slower business hours. Saturdays are always quite busy so if you are looking for a quiet and mellow atmosphere I would urge you to check this place out a different day of the week. You have got to check this place out! It is awesome for a low-key, friendly dinner or drink!
