The longstanding sports bar on Ballard Ave is being revived under new ownership.
Former Ballard Loft owner Dan Murphy closed the bar in April after 11 years. “We have had a rough few years and tried to pull out as many tricks as I could to avoid this,” Murphy told My Ballard when they closed. “It was our last resort of course.”
The new owners announced on Facebook on Sept. 4th that they’ll be reopening the Loft soon. No word yet on an exact opening date, but we’ll update when we learn more.
