Stopped in while my laundry dries. Nice bar tender, nice small gathering. Covid 19 spacing in effect. Dont think that really made a difference. This place is a quaint little hole in the wall, for real, Im guessing 15 by 45 feet of tavern. I dont see any hard drinks being served. My kinda place

Love love love the atmosphere here. Feels like a cozy, hip, cabin-like getaway somewhere close to the slopes. Wood panels, bar seats, high tops and cozy tables for small groups. They have games to play or bring your own cards or bones. The beer choices are top notch, not cheap but good selection. The pizzas are so damn good! Just enough for one, dont plan to share. Ive tried most of them and hardly have a favorite because they are all great. The staff picks great music! Some of the bartenders are really nice. Best part are the dogs! My dog loves going to The Dray! Always a few pups to socialize.

Perfect spot to drop in and grab a brew or a bite to eat. Their menu offers nibbles like pretzel bites, flat bread pizzas and sandwiches. Beer and cider choices rotate regularly to provide the optimum palatable experience. Feel free to bring your mini mes and four legged young uns along while you unwind from running about town, or meet up with friends. Street parking only.

Nice TVs, romantic bathroom, and that Warren guy should be a model!

I always get personable service!

Nice selection of beers.

Very comfortable place with nicely designed wooden walls all around.

This is a great chill hang out place. One of the few places you can come have a beer and greet some work/reading done. While also being able to keep an eye on the soccer/baseball/hockey game playing on one of their 3 tvs.

Seared ahi was amazing and service was great no complaints

The Dray is a lovely, cozy neighborhood pub. My experiences here have all been really positive. They serve a nice variety of beers and ciders on tap. No hard liquor however. The Dray also hosts a tiny kitchen. The menu is fairly limited and I wouldnt necessarily come here for a full meal. For beer munchies however the little pizzas and pretzels are a nice addition.If a large group of people wanders in The Dray can go from cozy to crowded pretty quickly..If youre in the neighborhood swing by and enjoy a pint. You wont regret it.Edit: Ive been back in The Dray a few times since writing this and I dont know why I was holding back that 5th star. Sorry The Dray. Heres a five star review, youre worth it.

The Dray was my neighborhood bar for 8 years. I have met some of my best friends here, had fantastic conversations from the absurd to the sublime. The atmosphere requires that you be neighborly, just by virtue of the fact that it is a small space and is conducive to socilaization. Seattle is a hard place to find this sort of atmosphere. I rarely go to Ballard anymore, but when I do, it usually starts and ends at the Dray.

Great local bar. Perfect place to watch sports especially Sounders games. Yummy small pizzas too.

They always have interesting beer on tap, and the small amount of food they offer is excellent. I love to get their Hawaiian flatbread pizza and add jalapenos. The service has always been good too. Im not a TV sports watching person, but they have 3 screens and show local, national and international games. They are not obnoxious though and you can still enjoy a conversation while they are on.

Not that busy, and good bedside manners.

Im not a big bar goer but my husband loves this place while Im doing laundry. Ive started joining him here; the cider is always choice, the pizza delicious (although small) and the atmosphere mostly chill.

Nice outdoor seating, overall environment is cozy and rustic chic. Food is pricey (tacos), as are the drinks, but what isnt in Seattle these days?!

This place is incredible. Cozy little neighborhood bar that serves up an incredible selection of beers. The bartenders are top-notch and everyone in the place is super friendly. Love the neighborhood vibe.

Stopped by on our way through Seattle to watch a premier league match. The bartender was very friendly and the tap list was good. Small space with a few tvs and was about half full for an important game. We had the pretzel and it was pretty good. The flat breads looked like they would be pretty good. Nice crowd and fun atmosphere, would definitely go again.

I was denied service because of my temporary drivers license. The reasoning being we just got hit recently Im 22, I only came here because they are dog friendly which is a plus.

Meh. Coffee is horrible, space is small and kind of boring. Beer list is alright, but honestly this place is 2005 in 2019. Get with the times. If you want a real variety of beers to drink, and good food, go to blue glass or Metal Mart. Sorry to the owners, but this place needs an update. Get some better coffee, or let Cafe Bambino keep doing what they do best, and get rid of your awful coffee. And seriously this place needs a face lift.

Cute hole in the wall bar, but the food is an afterthought to the beer.

Very small but very good. Sandwiches were amazing! Salami had a ton of mozzarella on it. A lot of hard to find beers on tap, but leans heavy to the IPA side. Also has coffee and teas .

On the pricier side but has great beers and the cleanest taps in the business. Great spot to get a drink and watch a soccer game, if you can score one of the few seats...

Love it. Amazing beer on tap, not to mention the 80+ bottles available on the bottle list. Small flat breads are also delicious. They are dog friendly.

Excellent selection of local beers in a nice cozy setting

A great variety of beers, a small but good selection of food, and very friendly staff! Great place to watch soccer as well. The interior is small, so not a great place for larger groups but great for groups up to 4.

Great beer selection. Awesome flatbread pizza. Cool servers. Open wall on warm days.

Hy end, high class. Get what you pay for

A pub where dog lovers pet each others pups while drinking beer. Heaven.

Great beer selection (always have a sour!), laid back atmosphere, tasty pizzas, and friendly service!

Reliably one of the better beer lists in the city, tasty flatbreads, plentiful soccer.

This will be more about the service as opposed to the bar and food but I called to place an order and got told to call back in 15 minutes when they were less busy or just come in. I dont know who this lady is but in her world she is so busy and so important that she does not need to know how to work at a RESTAURANT and TAKE A FOOD ORDER, So if you see a overly tan hand bag behind the bar be expected to wait for what ever you want when she is ready. I understand it can get busy and if it is maybe the management should put more people on staff or more competent people on staff. Needless to say I did not call back or go there in 15 minutes. I went somewhere that did not have trouble taking a call in order.

Great coffee and friendly service, I love the all wood interior. It feels cozy and welcoming, perfect for dreary, drizzly Seattle mornings!

Awesome late night stop, interesting and delicious beers and coffee choices that arent throwaway.

Great neighborhood beer bar. Cozy with a nice selection of craft beers.

Great beers on tap, tasty food, and friendly service.

Best watering hole in our neighborhood. Excellent drinks and pizzas when youre feeling like a bite!

Well curated beer choices, friendly bartender. But be for warned, dog and kid friendly

Always great beer, soccer on TV, cozy environment and friendly patrons and bar tender. I make a point to stop in whenever Im in the neighborhood.

Great little place to chill with a drink & my dog.

Awesome little spot, great place to catch some soccer!

Great place for all ages. And the owner is pretty rad, too.

Great place to watch the World Cup games and other sports!

Cozy spot with a good beer selection and a great atmosphere.

Great beer selection. Favorite futbol pub.

Great, came here with our two dogs and the felt as welcomed as we did

Love the Dray. Only complaint it is too small on soccer days.

Went to watch a soccer game on a weekday at noon. Started with a latte, delicious and hot, but not too hot, and a breakfast bagel with bacon jam. Yes, bacon jam. A great choice. Progressed to a few beers, of which they have a strong local selection. Had an XPA that reminded me of Half Acres Daisy Cutter Pale Ale.As for service, bartendress asked if id like to hear the commentary on the game. I chose to continue listening to the great music from her phone. I finished my latte and immediately found a beer in front of me. I finished that one and whats this!? Another beer!Atmosphere, a little hard to judge with only 3-4 patrons while I was there, but music was the perfect volume to chat and hear my phone ding on medium volume. I was able to watch the game in peace for a while, could have conversed if I wanted. Never felt rushed. Actually loved the abundant wood. A few locals came in and went while stopping to chat for a spell, which is always nice to see in a local bar. Ill definitely stop by again before I head back to Chicago. Perhaps an evening its busy...

Cozy, friendly, great rotating taps and knowledgeable bar keeps. Check out a soccer match.

Cozy soccer bar with an excellent beer selection

Great beer options and tasty panini sandwiches

Great coffee, pizza, and atmosphere. All around fantastic place.

Great beer selections with reasonably priced flat breads.

It is a bit small, but a nice place.

This place was making me cringe tonight. It is not a place I would expect death metal music playing while enjoying a beer. I have been coming here for a couple years now every week and I don’t know if I can handle that kind of change.

Tiny, homey spot. Good beer selection.

Cool little sports bar with friendly and warm service

F ing awsome

Amazing little bars, ran by one person.

Think cool ski resort bar

Fun times on Thursdays!

Great latte, food and atmosphere.

Awesome rotating beer selection. Very friendly bartenders.

Cozy little beer bar.

Best little neighborhood bar in Ballard. Always a good time, always a chill crowd, and lots of dogs!

The coziest little soccer bar in Seattle.

Great place for a beer with your dog!!!

Drea is the best!

Top spot for watching Euro 2012.

What an awesome place!

Was not there. Eating somewhere else.

Put what they have in your face!!!

Dog friendly!

Good morning to you!!!Wow 😀😀😀😀😀

Cozy.
