Casual sports bar with smashburgers, cheese curds, and patios
"Ballard has no shortage of places to drink beer and watch a game, but Slim Goody may be the most polished of the bunch. The main bar’s u-shaped design and comfy sparkly chairs ensure you don’t have to strain your neck to see the screens, while front and back patios offer options for those who want a little fresh air (or foosball). It's also easy to get distracted staring at an entire wall filled with retro cards of Seattle sports legends—just make sure you order something. The bar's tasty smashburger and shatteringly crisp onion rings are so appealing that when they arrive, fans may turn their heads from a Seahawks’ touchdown drive to see the real action." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
"Ballard has no shortage of places to drink beer and watch a game. But Slim Goody’s may be the most polished—and it's the place to go for a satisfying smashburger. The patty here has a crackly exterior and toppings that all complement each other like a plucky squad from, well, pretty much every inspiring sports flick in existence. There's no need to get fancy when you can combine melty american cheese, snappy sour pickles, and comeback sauce with a sturdy bun. It's so appealing, other fans may turn their heads from a Seahawks touchdown drive to see the real action." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente

"Taking over the old Great State Burgers location in Ballard is this new sports bar. Expect plenty of TVs and a heated patio where you can eat snacks like cheese curds, wings, and burgers. We recently checked out Slim Goody Sports Bar. Read our first thoughts here. " - kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
"Slim Goody is taking over the former Great State Burger space in Old Ballard. It is a fanciful pub venue that feels like part collectibles shop, part farmhouse beer garden, and a lot traditional sports bar. This laid-back spot has multiple patios and plenty of seating, along with a cool U-shaped main bar with comfy upholstered stools. There’s plenty of beer to choose from on tap, but don’t hold back if you’re hungry — the smashburger is one of the best Ballard offers." - Brianna Gunter
