My favorite beach
Seals and sea lions show up on the regular, and there’s a playground, beach volleyball, and food and drink (Little Coney has great soft-serve!).

Best bread around, just a few streets down from our place. We love the multigrain, Baker St. sourdough, and hominy breads, and the cinnamon rolls and cookies!

Terrific upscale Italian food, wine, and craft cocktails in the cozy environment of an old house on central Ballard Avenue. Everything they make seems to be exceptional, from the charcuterie to the Manhattans to the risotto and pasta.

Bookstores
Founded decades ago as an all-children’s bookstore, Secret Garden has blossomed into a full-service shop for all ages, with sellers’ recommendations and a little sitting area for kids. Every book seller here is friendly and happy to help, and there’s also a magazine rack with tons of variety.

All things Nordic reside here. It’s a great museum with rotating exhibitions as well as a rich permanent collection. Our neighborhood, Ballard, was the place in Seattle where Nordic folks created community when they immigrated to Seattle, hence the location!
