"If hanging out while playing skee-ball, eating fried bites and burgers, and drinking watermelon vodka slushies doesn’t sound like an extremely fun birthday to you, keep scrolling. If it does, you can do all those things at King’s Hardware, one of our favorite classic Ballard bars. And if it’s nice out, you’re going to want to hit the back patio, where there’s more natural light and a separate bar." - aimee rizzo
