This is one of those places that from the moment I walked in the door and was greeted with the smell of chai I knew it was gonna be a good stop ! This cafe feels like a warm hug from a friend you haven’t seen in while and they’ve manage to capture a retro , thrifty , homey vibe without overdoing it ! I ordered a latte and the toasted hazelnut, chèvre, honey & thyme toast and sat myself down at a table with a cute framed picture of a frog that said “ take more chances , dance more dances “ and I loved that !! Food and coffee was good , I was able to charge my phone and enjoy this special little spot before continuing my cruise !

This place is lovely. I often go to Fairhaven for a morning Coffee and a walk. They are one of only a couple shops that open as early as 8, and the seasonal specials are delectable.
The only concern I have is that the shop has gotten popular enough that seating is at a premium within a few minutes of the doors opening, and waiting for to go cups often means awkwardly standing in the way or waiting outside(when the weather permits). Possibly time to consider expanding into neighboring spaces, or moving somewhere with more table space?

Such an amazing cozy coffee shop! I have visited this cafe on my way to Seattle. They have very tasty Masala tea here made fresh and very aromatic. Great service and welcoming place.

Bustling spot for a nice coffee and treat. Nice vibes, friendly service. Recommend the tomato ricotta toast and the chocolate chip cookie.

Loved everything about this place. The mellow low-key vibe. The retro look. Fast service. Delicious food and coffee. The pottery. The 90s music. The prices.

Great vibes and coffee! Everyone is so kind and the coffee and treats are delicious. I always leave Cafe Blue in a great mood and ready for the day!

I was in a rush but wanted to give this place a try. Ordered stop drip and the best cookie. The drip was great. Had good mouth feel and great notes on the back end. The cookie was ACTUALLY really really good. I think it had flakes of salt on it and it made it so much better that way. The inside is relaxing, not to be mistaken with calm and quiet. Relaxing in a much better way. People at every table, conversations flowing, plants everywhere, the way a coffee shop should be.
I'll be back and get a cap and try the food next time.
Great coffee and cute space that smells of warm spices. Definitely gets busy and staff gets whelmed. Wish they had a vegan pastry

I started coming to Cafe Blue when we moved here and didn’t have any friends locally. UNTIL STEPPING INTO THIS CAFE. When I say the crew that works here is the most genuine, kindest, (also stylish), group of humans… it is an understatement. The coffee is incredible, and the treats are ones that I crave (go eat the tahini peanut butter cookie immediately). What sticks out to me the most though is the atmosphere and what I feel when I walk in. Welcomed, seen, and cared for. Like I have a place where I feel like I fit in without any labels. Bellingham is lucky to have them.

Love Café Blue! The atmosphere here is spot-on – really welcoming, comfortable, and just a great place to hang out for a while. It’s got a lovely, relaxed vibe that makes you want to settle in. Beyond the great feel of the place, the scones are the real hidden gems! Easily some of the best I've had – fresh, flavourful, and the perfect texture. Definitely grab one with your coffee. Great staff too. Café Blue is definitely worth a visit if you are passing by.
