Snacks!
Snacks! is the sort of place that Charlie Bucket would have stood outside with longing, his poor little face pressed up against the window. For those of you who don't have to share a bed with all of your grandparents, Snacks! is open Thursday through Saturday till 2:30am (10 am-6 pm Sunday) and provides a rotating array of treats with the Ballard post-bar and munchie-laden in mind. Catering to both savory and sweet palettes and contrary to logic, it's best not to have any idea what you want when you walk through those doors because you never know what you're going to find. Their signature items, including pints of Molly Moon's ice cream in seasonal flavors, Dante's hot dogs, and the Chilly Dog (soft serve ice cream in a toasted bun with peanut butter and jelly) are mainstays, but their beer, wine, general snack and candy selection is constantly changing. Their best offerings are not portable over long-distances, so Snacks! isn't the best option if you don't already live in Ballard, or you're not planning to hang out there. If only there were a Snacks! in every neighborhood.
