Hardwick's, located in the University district on Roosevelt Avenue was a funky hardware store when I first discovered it many years ago. It became Hardwick's swap shop and now is just Hardwick's. It's a combination of good old fashioned hardware store, swap shop, and museum. You can find new and used power tools, hard to find hardware and a variety of stuff that's too numerous to name. It isn't very big, but they pack a lot of stuff in there. The aisles are pretty narrow.
If you have a craftsman house or you just want a craftsman feel in your home, go here for your hardware.This is where I finally found the right hinges for my 1920's built in hutch.
They have a lot of old and new items. if you need a Kansai saw for detailed wood work, go here, there have the best selection in town.

Vintage Wood Sash and Storm is located in Ballard at 6755 8th Avenue NW. They specialize in storm windows, an alternative to replacing old windows with double pained glass. They also have the capacity to replace existing single pained windows, with new wood and glass. He treats al of the exterior exposed wood with a special oil that helps to prevent dry rot or other problems from being exposed to the elements. It seems to work very well, as I have a window he made that hasn't been painted and is still trouble free. If you're working on an older house and need to keep it historically correct, then get your windows here.

Top notch theater on a small lot

The Majestic Bay Theater, located in downtown Ballard on NW Market Street is truly a phoenix rising. The original Bay Theater was so run down that it was impossible to restore it, and was scheduled to be demolished and would no longer be the site of a neighborhood movie house. An investor came into the picture and from the ashes (literally, not figuratively) of the fallen Bay Theater, The Majestic Bay was reborn. It has three screens, is fully handicap accessible and friendly. The seats are comfortable and the movies shown are first run, usually with at least one selection for families. It is a wonderful neighborhood theater reborn. This theaters is a two thumbs up!

My husband and I were looking for a place to celebrate our anniversay. We wanted someplace with excellent food and a romantic atmoshpere. Friends had told me about a place near our house called Pasta Freska. It sits on a traingular plot of land and the building footprint somewhat resembles an arrowhead. The front door is located at the tip or point. The building is really unassuming, it looks like a typical pizza joint, and in fact, during the day they serve pizzas and grinders. .However at night, the chef takes over and begins to play. He creates the most amazing gormet dishes.
We had checked out several places and it was getting late, around nine pm. My husband an I peered tentatively in the front door. We saw no customers and were sure that was a bad sign. Fortunately, one of the servers saw us and urged us to enter. She asked us if we would like to sit outside, and to our delight Pasta Freska has a charming outside deck located a half story up on th rear side of the buiding.
Pasta Freska is very different from most restraunts. Fist, there is no menu. For those of you who have trouble deciding what to eat, this is the place! Your server will sit down with you and ask you questions to determine what to serve you. Drink selections are based on what is being served to you and your selection in general terms. In other words, don't look for a wine list, there isn't any.
We were served garlic bread, an appetiser of eggplant, artichoke and cheese on a bed of red sauce, lightly dressed salad seasoned with myzithe cheese, a seafood pasta with enormous prawns and chunks of fish, a bowtie pasta with meat sauce and a stuffed chicken breast masala. Dessert consisted of tiramisu, spumoni ice cream and a chocolate torte. The food was beyond fabulous. We requested a glass of wine and the server brought out a very lovely merlot. She left the bottle with us, so we could choose to have more if we wished. It was truely an enchanting dining experience and worth every penney of it!
