There is literally something here for everyone. Stroll the cobblestones of old Ballard Ave, and drink in the local flavor of still- independent restaurants, pubs, and cafes. You’ll enjoy the funky atmosphere of boutiques and galleries specializing in artisan-crafted furniture, art and clothing. Then emerge onto the bustle of Market Street and bask in the energy of this small town in a big city. Have a cupcake. Catch a movie. Grab a drink. You’ll find local, organic produce at the legendary Ballard Farmer’s market and idyllic serenity at the historic Hiram Chittenden locks and gardens. And you can cap it all off at the beach with a blazing Golden Gardens sunset.
