Skål (meaning “cheers”) invokes the spirit of a Viking mead hall - it’s warm, welcoming, & often raucous! Built with a love for community, our space encourages communal dining in a rustic, old-world tavern setting. Here you'll find artfully crafted local beer, mead, wine, and seasonally-inspired cocktails. Our gastropub kitchen highlights the bounty of the PNW with shareable plates and comfort foods that nod to our Nordic heritage & embrace a sense of adventure. Be treated like a Jarl at one of our celebratory Viking feasts or come for Ballard’s best Happy Hour. Help us carry on the Nordic tradition in our neighborhood! .
