45 Best Coffee Shops in Bellingham

“One of my Bham go-to spots. It’s super cute and cozy, and the staff are lovely, especially Micah the owner. Colorful and fun decor, eclectic interior, and branding to match. Locally roasted coffee, pastries made in-house, adorable ceramics for your “to have here” food and bev. The coffee is more on the acidic side if that’s your jam. If Bellingham would allow small retail zoning in residential areas then this would be your local neighborhood spot, and Micah does a great job at making you feel welcomed. Almost always super busy and indoor seating is definitely coveted (though there’s covered outdoor spots). It’s a great place to sit and work but because it’s so tiny, be mindful of how much time you’re spending on your laptop - support small businesses by allowing them to have seating turnover! Got multiple punchcards worth of free coffee to save for a special rainy day, thanks Cafe Blue for offering up all the good vibes.“

“Wonderful artisan coffees. Tasty sandwich. Nice Colombian music.“

“I love this coffee cafe more and more every time I come in. It is a very warm and easy atmosphere. The perfect cafe music playing softly in the background. The light-hearted, happy chatter among the patrons. A general sense of neighborhood and international blend as smoothly as the floral, exquisite coffee. I’ve watched cafe adagio grow over the years and there is a reason ! Thank you!!“

“Stopped in this afternoon and had lunch. It was amazing! Sandwich and a warm bowl of soup sure hit the spot on this rainy northwest friday. Waitstaff was super busy but still took a moment to make me feel welcome. Can't wait to go back.
New favorite drink is dirty “

“Makeworth has made its mark on Bellingham as a fun communal space and coffee shop in town. They have a great menu of tasty breakfast items and roast their coffee beans amazingly. All their drinks are a great start to your day and they're a great space to connect with others or have some focus time for yourself! Menu Faves: - Food: Cheddar & Egg Sandwich, Avocado Toast, Chocolate Croissant - Drinks: Mocha, Macchiato, Honey Lavender Latte, Honey Chai“

“The Bean stop has the best quality sweatshirts I’ve ever bought. Extremely impressed. I suggest them PLUS their coffee is amazing!!“

“My Firehouse Cafe visit was 5 ⭐ I ordered the ham and swiss panini, an eggnog latte, and a blueberry custard croissant/danish, and every single bite (and sip) was delicious.

The ham and swiss panini was perfectly toasted with just the right balance of savory and cheesy goodness. The eggnog latte was the ideal seasonal treat—rich, creamy, and full of festive flavor. And the blueberry custard croissant/ danish? Simply divine! The crispy, flaky croissant, sweet custard, and fresh blueberry flavors were the perfect combination.

The service was top-notch as well—friendly, attentive, and quick. It’s clear this place takes pride in creating both a welcoming atmosphere and exceptional food and drinks. I also appreciate that they open earlier than most places in town (for those of us that are early risers). Oh, and my puppy got a pup cup and a Milkbone treat. I highly recommend the Firehouse Cafe.“

“The Fluffy Bunny and the Cinnamon Roll are my favorite iced coffees there Cruisin' Coffee is a Bellingham institution for good reasons, and they have REAL hard ice cream shakes/ice cream blended coffees (like the Coffee Cream omg) ??

Kid-friendliness: They gave my kiddo a sucker when she wanted me to buy her a treat and I was worried she'd feel left out when I got myself a coffee, but the sucker helped!

Wheelchair accessibility: You can roll right up in your wheelchair ☺️ and they are walk-up friendly ?“

“best coffee in the area! absolutely delicious every time. I like the vanilla chai with brown sugar cinnamon syrup :)“

“Such an amazing store with such nice employees!
I got my morning coffee from another store and they forgot to add vanilla to it (they normally are great as well so I'm not upset) but I ran by this store to see if I could get my drink fixed and I think her name was Allison fixed my drink no problem and did it with a smile on her face!

“The food is delicious! The atmosphere is great, the coffee wonderful, the staff is very friendly. Roam if you want to Roam around the world“

“Always looking for good coffee when I travel. Happened upon this friendly cafe. It was a fortunate find. The barista/baker had just pulled out pastries, one of which was lemon filled, it went well with my perfectly made Americano. I sat in the indoor courtyard where it was quite and relaxing. I will definately visit again when in the area.“

“Great employees with a great vibe.“

“Nice, i love this place. Peaceful“

“Just want to let everyone know there are new owners as of August 28th 2018. We're told the European style pastries handcrafted by the co-owner/pastry chef are incredible!We've got breakfast burritos and handmade wraps, ( including veggie and vegan options), made with Boar's Head meats and cheeses. We've switched to locally sourced, organic coffee and teas from Fidalgo Bay Roasters out of Anacortes.We're all about offering healthy alternatives in a beautiful setting with great music and smiling faces.Stop by and check us out. Our hours are updated on Google and posted on the door of the coffee shop!“

“Such a cute little cafe! Need a place to stop and work as we were driving through Bellingham, and I'm glad we chose this one.

Staff was kind, space was cute, lets of tables and places to sit and work.

Most importantly, lets talk coffee. My favorite drink is a caramel latte, but I'm pretty particular about my caramel syrup. I really like Monin, but all other brands and most homepage syrups aren't my favorite. It's either too think or too fake. I was hesitant to get this go-to drink, when they said they made their own syrup, but i'm happy I did. It was delicious!

I would recommend it!“

“Great Coffee and the Best Burritos in Bellingham. You need to try one...“

“Excellent eats, coffee, atmosphere and employees... Can't recommend enough...“

“We need a Woods Coffee here in Vancouver wa. I miss my woods coffee and people😊“

“I drive this place a lot but today the timing was right and I decided to stop in. When I got there I told the lady that I hadn’t been here before, but I’m exhausted and want something as close to a coffee milkshake with caramel as I could get. She nailed it, that was one of the best fraps I have had in a very long time. I will definitely be back“

“Absolutely great place to get a cup of coffee! Great service with a smile on their faces. Very very uplifting mood when walking in. They're ham and cheese croissant was excellent as well! Two enthusiastic thumbs up. Couldn't be happier with the service. Definitely a good change of pace considering the last couple places that I've been to. I would suggest this place even with my grandmother. It's nice to see a local company succeed so well. No company deserve more success than these guys! Keep up the good work!

Dietary restrictions: Everything friendly

Kid-friendliness: Do you have kids menu items as well

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes wheelchair accessible“

“We always have a great experience with Woods. Better coffee, bakery, breakfast & Rush drinks than 'constellation dollars' hands down. *** Woods does Egg Nog in the winter which those other ones stopped doing years ago. That's the reason I switched and have not looked back.“

“Great job. Made to order. Loved it! Will go back when in the area. ❤️👌“

“Our whole family loves Flying Bird Botanicals Tea! We have an entire cupboard full of probably just about every flavor available. Our kids count on Tummy Coat, Cold Comfort, and Throat Soothe when they're not feeling well. My wife starts every day with Irish Breakfast first thing, then Lavender Orange Grey. Personally, I love a Dream Catcher hot toddy for a deep sleep. Outstanding products and an awesome local business!“

“best coffee in the area! absolutely delicious every time. I like the vanilla chai with brown sugar cinnamon syrup :)“

“It's open early. Sandy and crew are good people and it's nice knowing I can get a 32 oz caffeine boosted iced latte first thing in the morning. And the fact that they have to put up with me all the time says a lot about their patience and customer service. Okay, seriously, I start my morning with this place and I usually end my weekends with a stop there. The drinks are good and the prices are better than certain other places. Out of the top three, I'll put them at number one.“

“Quite literally my second home! One thing I can always count on is being greeted with a smile, treated like an old friend and of course receiving an exceptionally made drink. Love this Starbucks!“

“This Starbucks is like the Cheers of Fred Meyer Starbucks. My teenager and I hit this place almost every day and the baristas know our orders, joke with us, and are just all around fantastic. Jayme, Ryan, Morgan, and the rest of the crew are super cool and helpful.Everybody has their favorite drink written down on the board which is a nice personal touch. I suggest the Jayme, personally.“

“cute locally owned cafe with a relaxing atmosphere, cute Polaroid dog photo wall, and good drinks! I got a pistachio chai.“

“A welcoming and cozy little cafe, that's quiet enough to chat in. The gelato is amazing, and the chocolate are silky and rich. Best of all, drinking chocolate made with any chocolate you want: my favorite is the white chocolate.“

“Love this place❤️❤️ We came directly from Vancouver just to come here. Amazing!!“

“The best flavor of sausage gravy ever! Just a bit of a spicy bite but not overpowering. I chose the regular biscuits and they were really good for gluten free that I would not be able to tell them apart from a non gluten one.“

“Fantastic, fun, friendly, top notch service! The coffee is delicious, the pastries are divine! I Highly recommend this open, airy, happy establishment!!“

“yes!!! love starbucks :) as a partner and as a customer, they rock :)“

“I was having a really bad day and decided to get some coffee and a sandwich and was not disappointed. Can honestly say the conversation and great drinks/breakfast food turned my day completely around. It seemed these hardworking individuals truly care about their customers and I wish I wasn’t broke so that I could tip them so much more. Zoom zoom has made a regular customer for life outta me!“

“Preordered & easily picked up various 4 qts enroute to weekend party. Everyone gushed how much they loved it. Must give me name & location. First time gelato for me. Loved. So creamy. Fairhaven District Bellingham location pleasant & helpful staff.“

“We've been coming to this location for years, and there's always efficient , pleasant service in the drive-thru. (We were surprised that they don't have an eggnog latte this holiday season though, and will have to go elsewhere for that.)Love that this location is unionized!“

“I never dreamed I'd be a "regular" at any coffee shop much less so a big chain shop. But, the employees at nearly all of the Bellingham Starbucks locations are so friendly & kind & remember my hubby & I both by name & our "regular" order which feels extra inviting (aaand a LITTLE disconcerting! LOL!) When I was going through a rough patch with my health, I always left these cpl shops feeling better. They also make REALLY GOOD drinks, food & the shop is ALWAYS spotlessly clean & THAT definitely makes my germ phobic OCD brain very happy too!!! 100000000 stars!!
?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?“

“My favorite coffee shop in Bellingham! Love the fresh pastries, and the baristas are always nice and welcoming.“

“Yo the humans that run this joint at THIS particular location are beautiful spirits and the milk shake (32oz chocolate thanks for asking) and the simple ingredients that made a FIRE roast beef sandwich ... Well those were two days ago spectacular and as I write this now it's a must stop and partake. No joke go love you some CRUISIN COFFEE.LADIES GREAT AT WHAT YOU'RE DOING KNOW THAT! ?“

“Amazing breakfast burrito and coffee“

“I love this location because everyone here is so lovely. My two cents though is: you should make an express line just for people getting drip! :) I'd move the line along and you'd probably get more customers too due to the convenience- I love you all at this location!! You always make my day“

“Love Lafeens! Come here all the time with my friends!“
