Staple & Fancy

Ballard

Last checked Mar 7, 2026

Staple & Fancy offers a real happy hour gem, especially for pasta lovers. The food deals are excellent, though the drink savings are only so-so. Be sure to hit the early bird special for the best deals.

Food Verdict:Real

This is the real deal! With an average savings of 35% across six items, Staple & Fancy delivers. Don't miss the Cacio E Pepe Bucatini (41% off), Creste Di Gallo Porcini (44% off), or Radiatore Alla Vodka (42% off) for some serious carb-loading discounts.

Drink Verdict:Meh

The drink deals are pretty meh, averaging a mere 21% off. The ESR 'Grace' Prosecco at 29% off is decent, but the Fremont Pilsner at 11% off is barely worth mentioning. Skip the wine and beer, and just enjoy the discounted pasta.
