Come to Ballard

At Kangaroo & Kiwi, we bring slice of down under hospitality in the heart of Ballard, Seattle. Established on ANZAC Day in 2001, our pub was born from a love of authentic Aussie hospitality, great beer, and a vibrant community atmosphere.

Our Story

Our founder, Bradley Howe, hails from the small town of Harden-Murrumburrah in Australia. With a dream to recreate the pub environment he grew up with, Bradley poured his heart and soul into establishing Kangaroo & Kiwi. From the moment you step in, you’ll feel the warmth of a true Aussie/Kiwi pub — a place where everyone is welcome, whether you’re here for a quick drink, a meal, or to catch the latest sports match.

Over the years, we’ve built a home for expats, locals, and visitors alike, offering an inviting space that feels like a little bit of “Down Under” in the Pacific Northwest.

Our Pub Experience

At Kangaroo & Kiwi, we offer a blend of local and imported beers. Our menu brings classic pub fare with an Aussie twist, from hearty parma and schnitzel to our crowd-favorite wings and burgers.

We’re not just about food and drinks, though — we’re passionate about sport. Whether you’re a fan of AFL, rugby, or international soccer, we’ve got your game on. With large screens throughout the pub, there’s always a match to watch with friends over a cold pint.

Community Spirit

We’re more than just a pub — we’re a part of the Ballard community. From trivia nights to special events, Kangaroo & Kiwi is a place where friendships are made, and memories are shared. We take pride in supporting local events and hosting private parties for birthdays, work gatherings, or any occasion that calls for a good time.
