Seth is doing a great job and bringing in a nice clientle. As new owners they are really making this a nice place.

Honestly I love this bar on drinking nights. The hay is on the floor and people love to enjoy themselves. I know no country songs but I go with the flow. I have been here twice and plan on coming back

Fun country bar, enjoyable even if you dont like country music but especially if you do. Dont wear nice shoes, floor is covered in hay and you will come home with it all over you.

Great bar layout with sweet patio space and open kitchen. Beautiful wood bar, its obvious they spent time and money designing the whole joint. Good beer selection and food menu- we only had deviled eggs which are great but they have good organic and vegetarian options . Went to watch a sports game and it was perfect! The only drawback was they were playing country music??!!

If you are over 30, this place is great, if youre in to hanging out with people in their 20s. Decent DJ, wouldnt highly recommend.

Nice friendly saloon style place with great service.They boast a boot of beer, which is about 60 oz or something of beer, its huge.Its a fun country feel with straw on the floors and roasted peanuts.They offer something like a personal pizza or Tims kettle chips as far as food goes so plan on drinking only there.I liked it.

It’s a country-themed bar, not an actual country bar. Meaning, even though they have (fire-treated) hay on the floor and cowboy signs on the walls, it’s in Ballard, in Seattle, and it can get pretty packed with people who definitely spent most of their week sitting at computers in offices. If the lack of authenticity is going to annoy you all night, don’t bother. All that being said, this place is really, really fun. The space is small but it’s one of the few bars in the area where people actually stand around and talk to other people or dance. They have boots of beer and bar games and bingo and karaoke and they’ll play all your favorite pop country hits with some of the older classics mixed in. It may be a little gimmicky, but if you’re looking for a good time and don’t mind a crowd (and you like country music) this is a must visit stop in Ballard.

Country Karaoke is a blast! Good people and a decent glass of cider. Feels like home to a Seattleite who grew up Southern.

There were two female bartenders who whispered to each other when I ordered a drink. Feels fantastic having women judge you..... Then after I got my drink and was talking to people..... There was a Seattle Police Officer drinking in the bar but refused to say what Department he worked for, who was also wasted..... His apartment manager explained where he worked and what he did for a living... Would never, ever recommend........

Cheap drinks and great music - unfortunately, not a lot of room to dance. Its a fairly small bar with a lot of people, so if youre expecting to swing dance or two-step, think again. Great vibe nonetheless.

Fun place . Bingo nights were fun. Things changed over time.

Great place i was visiting from austin, met the owner and staff while I was there and had a great time

This is a really fun spot. If you go after 8 wear ear plugs, they turn the music up so loud you cant hear yourself think and are constantly yelling to get a drink or just talk to a friend. Great atmosphere tho with lots of dancing and country music!

Not really into country music but the staff and patrons made it a fun place to enjoy a cold beer.

Fun country style bar. Disappointing that they dont have anything more than pizza by the slice for food options. Being a country bar there is an opportunity to have a fun menu to match the theme. Not bad for drinks but wouldve stayed here longer with a larger menu.

The place is great...its ambience is charming

Most fun night weve had for awhile! Karaoke on Sunday night was a blast, Kitty runs a great show. Will definitely be back.

Great drinks at a good price. Also the staff is amazing. Love all of them.

Went on Tuesday for BINGO night. Go they said. It will be fun they said. You will have a great time, they said. They have never been so wrong. First of all, it is a country bar. This must be true as there were bails of hay, country type things hanging on the wall, and country music playing. I suppose that is all it takes to be a country bar but it seems to have missed the mark (I think the mark was 1980 when Urban Cowboy was released). The actual bingo was vaguely fun if you enjoy having a loud man yell into a microphone that is turned up so loud that you cant hear the person next to you. The worst part of all was the fact that there was only one bartender who stayed at the bar and you had to go order from her. It would take 5-10 minutes to get your drink even though most in my party were drinking the Moscow Mules which they have on tap. Overall, Imma gonna go with a nah.

Good new spot in Ballard. I loved the Avocado & Bacon Deviled Eggs, and the meaty Braised beef sandwich will definitely fill you up. Really great spot, and the service was friendly as well.

Kinda salty but awesome bartenders, always fun and something going on whether country karaoke or bingo or line dancing lessons. Not at all pretentious like it used to be, new management and staff, easy country vibe Ballard needed.. Stiff drinks, good pricing, dancing, beer boots, and country music. Neon lights and loudish but not too loud music make this one of the most comfortable and authentic bars in in Seattle, not just Ballard. When its slow during the week the conversations among guests and bar staff is inviting, and when its busy on the weekends its a great place to take friends and go dancing and cut loose. Wide open till 2AM every day and the kitchen is open with a full menu until close also. Also, peanut shells an inch deep all over.

Just moved here from Virginia and Shingletown is in the middle of turning into a saloon/country bar....being from the south I couldnt be more impressed! The new menu is FANTASTIC! Shingletown Burger deserves an award! Playlist is awesome! Bar tender Matt is great! Danny is pretty swell too! Great atmosphere to hang out, eat and drink! The draft beers they have are delicious! Good prices for Ballard. :)

Decent for a cheap drink and lively crowd... country themed bar, down to peanut shells on the floor. They have country karoke and line dancing on various nights. and its usually packed. I wouldnt start my night here, but its a great place to end. Just dont go expecting a quiet place with great cocktails.

Good bar with a good range of Alcohol and prices. They’ve always got peanuts to snack on as well. This place reminds me of Wisconsin or Nashville. Fun karaoke and bingo nights. Even better line dancing.

Fun bar! Love the peanuts!

Great place to drink, friendly bartenders, the most fun bathrooms Ive ever been in, and of course delicious adult beverages. If youre a fan of a good little country bar, put this place on your list of places to stop!

A unique country bar in downtown Ballard. My two friends LOVE country and stumbled upon this bar while on their way to Kangaroo & Kiwi. They have some good drink specials and Ill definitely be going back!

Reminds me of the bars I went to in Nashville. On Thursday nights they have free bingo and line dancing. What more could you want!?

The manager here was undeniably aggressive with my roommate and my boyfriend this past weekend. Our roommate was cut off, despite the fact he was not intoxicated, which didn’t make any sense. When my roommate calmly asked why he was cut off, the manager said, “I can kick you out for any reason I want - I could say I don’t like your shirt, I don’t need a reason to cut you off.” Ultimately, we obviously left. The manager failed to uphold his responsibility of professionalism and tact, he couldn’t hold a rational conversation. It was entirely insulting. We will not be going back.

Very fun, everyone is happy. Its legit a country bar . the owner and staff are so helpful. I really like this place and so should you !

Pretty cool place! Recently converted to a country bar and they are NAILING it! Great country music playing, peanuts on the ground, darts & shuffleboard.. country karaoke and live bands coming soon. Friendly staff. Great prices. Small outside patio area.. I suggest checking it out!!

Fun little hay floor bar. Throw your shells on the fround

Best country bar in Seattle! If you like hay, peanuts you can throw shells on the floor, and a little bit of irony, this place always has fun, easy new friends to be made, plenty of booze, and great bar activities.

This was an amazing old fashion! I would definitely come back again and again for it.

Reported vomit in bathroom to a bartender and was asked to leave. I was trying to help them maintain a clean establishment. Yikes! Blonde grumpy bartender was rude and refused to believe me. I wont be coming back. You should pass unless you like vomit crusted bathrooms...yuck! Ballard Station, Hotel Albatross, and The Matador are good alternatives within 2 blocks.

Cheap booze, sawdust on the ground and country music blaring. Good if thats what youre into. Good staff.

This is for if youre under 27. Strongly advise not going here if youre allergic to hay.

I think this bar would do even better with a karaoke or some other sort of interactive experience

The staff are warm and attentive. They no longer offer Sunday brunch, unfortunately. But they have good food and a nice selection of beer, wine, and spirits.

Fun night out with good country music. I dont usually complain about volume but they play their music VERY loud. I was screaming at the person next to me.

This is great for country nightlife scene.

The absolute best kind of squalor is the squalor you find in a good country bar.

Great drinks and atmosphere!

Upbeat scene with friendly staff. Beer selection was okay, but they had amazing avocado fries! Plus, you cant beat free peanuts :P

They changed up the decor and music. It is a country themed bar now. The music was very loud, very loud!

This place has lots of local brews for $6 a pint and pretty delicious appetizers. The entrees are neither bad nor great. Go for bingo on Thursdays. Or dont so I have a better chance of winning!

Walked in before seeing a movie at the Majestic. The inside looks and feels like youre inside a Northwest cabin. The front is open depending on the weather. Friendly staff and was a great place to spend time.

Solid place, not much room though

Best bar and country hangout spit in Seattle. Amazing staff. Great drinks!

This is a sweet bar, a country bar in Ballard! Good food and nice staff. Dani treats us fabulously, highly recommend....terrible parking however.

I like the vibe, it makes you feel like you are in the south. I also like their beer boots, I get a good night sleep after drinking one of those.

For what it is, its a good time.

A little pricey for my personal taste. But the food is amazing! They even have popcorn! The drinks are really good too!

Every country cliche packed into a Ballard bar. Drinks in mason jars, hay bales, peanut shells on the floor, smokey and the bandit on the big screen,weekly line dancing lessons and bad karaoke. This place must be for the millennials because the rest of us have already sang our drunken rendition of friends in low places. Come for the tater tots and a boot of beer-- then leave.

Fun place with a hard working, friendly staff and a mix of classic sing along songs and dance tunes. Stumbled in here with low expectations and left with a new favorite Ballard bar!

Great vibe, fun people and awesome bartenders! They know whats up :)

Good food, good drinks, nice rotating taps and friendly staff. Can get a bit loud, but its become my new favorite spot in Ballard!

Food is pretty good but the country theme is a little cheesy.

Strong drinks, big food selection, peanuts and more peanuts

Good Bloody Mary mix and bad service. I asked if the brunch menu is the only one going at 2pm or I can look at other one, the waitress responded that the brunch menu is till three and left. I was hungry and could absolutely pick something from the brunch menu. But noone got back for 10 minutes. I finished the Bloody Mary and asked for the bill. They brought it to us and didnt return for another 10 minutes. I was also upset that service fee of 20% was included. I wouldnt leave a dollar of a tip here.

Market St. bar that feels like wannabe old (hip) ballard. A lot of laquered wood and black paint, shingles and Christmas lights. Somebody tried hard, but ultimately its in the unfortunate spot between cozy dive and trendy bar. Smallish food menu features 25-day wet aged burgers and modern variations on classic Americana. Service is okay.

The $14 boots of beer on Wednesdays are awesome!! And the bartender Matt is even more awesome!

Solid beer selection. They had on tap some local beers that Ive never tried (which or kind of rare). Didnt anything, so cant speak to the food, though what I saw brought out looked pretty tasty.

Solid cocktails and good food. Try the pork belly sandwich, the Szechuan fried chicken sandwich or the smoked salmon Caesar salad.

The staff is always extremely friendly and the country karaoke on Sunday night is a ton of fun!

I havent felt this old since I went to bumbershoot

Cute. Oddly placed but cute.

The service is non-existent (in that they had no servers and you had to wait for 5+ mins standing at the bar to order and pick up your own drinks), they got orders wrong, the food (2 orders of chicken strips, a burger, and a salad) all came out individually 15-20 mins apart so we couldnt all eat together, and they used my husbands card for someone elses tab and let her walk out of the bar with it. Apparently their last names were only a few letters apart and they dont check first names on cards (otherwise it probably wouldve been clear that shes probably not a woman named Derik). They comped our bill, but the food was just okay at best and took so long that it was half cold by the time it got to us anyway. We came with friends and none of us will be coming back.

J.R. the new chef just updated the menu. Grabbed the pear salad and beef sliders...amazing!

Great music and fun environment... Lots of dancing :)

You have to really stand out to earn high marks in Ballard.

Cozy atmosphere, good beer selection, delicious fries and deviled eggs

One of the few truly fun places left in vanishing Ballard.

Bingo nights are great

Good beer list. Decent food.

Place is too noisy, its hard to discuss with friends

20% gratuity included in the bill but completely undeserved. Terrible service and very unprofessional bartender.

Hands down best country karaoke bar

Great staff and bingo on Thursday night is a blast!

A country-themed bar, very friendly staff.

Great staff, menu and food.

Great food - great staff!

Good service, awesome atmosphere, phenomenal beer

Thursday night bingo (free to play) is what sets this place apart. Fun gifts, ridiculous times and the host while we were there was hilarious.

Good drink selection, potato chips are AMAZING.

Nice bar

Ballards country bar

No happy hour or a variety of food

Can throw peanuts on the floor, any place like this is fold in my heart

I walked by this place 3 times in the last two days and was sprayed in the face by squirt guns. Each time Ive asked to stop and it still continues, worst place in Ballard.

It was tight

Its a bar. Plays country music.....do with that what you will.

Great selection

They try but fail

Free peanuts!!!

Pure country vibe

Goodmorning beautiful

Super friendly staff!

Terrible atmosphere.
