Ballard Pizza Co. Now Slinging Its Pies in South Lake Union

Amazon's growing campus has recently added Ethan Stowell's Ballard Pizza Company to its impressive restaurant collection, which also includes Great State Burger and Bar Noroeste from Josh Henderson, Skillet, Mamnoon Street and Anar, and Marination.

The new Ballard Pizza Company outpost opened on April 11, serving New York-style "whole pies and fat slices," as the official website describes them. This is the third location for the mini-chain of pizzerias, which includes a Ballard base as well as Frelard Pizza Company on the border of Fremont and Ballard. 

Expect the same menu as at the other locations, including pizza, salads, salumi, local draft beer, and wine. There's a lengthy happy hour stretching from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. every day, and even a spacious outdoor patio with 30 seats for these warm days.

500 9th Avenue N, (206) 623-3583, website. Open Monday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
