47 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.“

“Locus is my go-to spot for recovering after a long night out, especially thanks to their outstanding breakfast burritos. There’s nothing like one of their burritos to start your day right, packed with flavor and perfectly prepared.

The vibe at Locus is always lively, which makes it a fun place to be, though it can get a bit loud on Saturday mornings. If you find yourself a bit fragile from the night before, don’t worry—their mimosa flight is a surefire remedy. It’s not only a creative take on the classic brunch drink but also the perfect way to ease into your day.

The staff at Locus adds to the positive experience with their friendly and quick service, ensuring that even the busiest mornings run smoothly. Whether you’re looking for a hearty breakfast to kickstart your day or a place to relax and enjoy some good company, Locus checks all the boxes.

Be sure to stop by if you’re in the area—it’s a great spot to satisfy your morning cravings and maybe discover your new favorite breakfast spot.“

“We stumbled across this little joint while driving around Bellingham searching for somewhere new, and boy it did not disappoint. We were looking forward to the sandwiches but they had just sold completely out of bread and judging by the taste of the creamy butter nut squash soup, Myan hot chocolate, and thier London fog, I can see why they sold out! everything was amazingly delicious, and the atmosphere is just perfection. it's a great lill Cafe to grab a bite and sip something wonderful. We're very much looking forward to getting in early enough next time to get sandwichs!“

“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 plays we saw here had wonderful nationally and locally recognized actors and crews. Everything is very professionally done.
A small playhouse with maybe 120 excellent seats in a 360 degree audience viewing pattern.
There is a coffee shop and cafe that is open all day and also during shows. The garden is so peaceful for enjoying your sandwiches and coffee.
This is our 2nd year seeing the summer play series.“

“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“

“I love this place! My doggo loves it too. The coffee and tea are always fantastic and you can tell the smiles on everyone's face even with masks on.“

“I wanted to find a coffee shop that has a cozy atmosphere. Woods coffee is pretty cozy but the drip coffee needs to be worked on. It has an aftertaste of what I would describe metallic or coppery. I drink gas station coffee everyday and I hate to say the gas station coffee is much better.“

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

“Best pastries I’ve ever had!! We had two savory and two sweet ones to share for me and my partner and afterwards I said we should’ve gotten double that because they were so good. The crusts were so buttery, flaky and melt in your mouth amazing, the quiche cup was sooooo good. The sweet pastries were perfect because they weren’t overly sweet at all - perfect balance with fresh fruit and tartness of lemon without being too much. Added to our “fav special places” list on Google so that we can stop by when we are around again. Owner was also so nice and told us about a better drive back to Seattle than just taking I5 and it was beautiful!!! Will 100% be back.“

“Nice, i love this place. Peaceful“

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

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

“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!“

“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 ?“

“My children spilled his hot chocolate by accident but the manager her name is bee, she gave us new hot chocolate for free. She is really kind and we paid hit chocolate!! The drink’s taste are amazing and so good i recommand you hibiscus tea with a 1pack of sugar!“

“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“

“Great employees with a great vibe.“

“Excellent breakfast and coffee! Definitely my new favorite stand“

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

“I thoroughly enjoyed my visit today and enjoyed smell fresh ground coffee while waiting for my bus!!“

“I love this place! My doggo loves it too. The coffee and tea are always fantastic and you can tell the smiles on everyone's face even with masks on.“

“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.“

“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!!
?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?“

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

“A great cup of coffee, an awesome breakfast burrito to kill time during a vehicle service down the street. thank you to the polite staff for getting my day started off right! whenever I'm in the area (all the way from Ohio) I always slvisit Wood's Coffee.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp available. Also the drive thru is fast and easy to enter.“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“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 :)“

“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!“

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

“Mocha milkshakes are good (to keep it thick, request tottee shots (that's cold espresso shots) instead of hot espresso, so it won't melt as fast), if you want something other than hot coffee.

Parking: It's a drive-thru coffee stand, they don't seem to want to serve any walk-ups. There is usually parking around the stand, however it is dedicated for other purposes than the coffee stand.“

“I want to like this place but I’m always kind of disappointed. The ice cream has its good qualities but just falls short of being a creamy, authentic gelato. It’s too cold and has an icy texture. I wouldn’t seek it out but it’s ok if you’re passing by.“

“I love this place. I can only give my review regarding the one near the airport. Everyone working has a great attitude & good customer service. They get my order right every single time. Shout out to Chloe who really goes above & beyond & always has a smile on her face!“

“We had an amazing visit! Our barista was incredibly helpful and friendly. The decor is so beautiful and inviting with the huge double sided fire place, leather chairs, open wood beams and outdoor decorations.“

“Cashier was kind and prompt. She helped me order oleato foam and americano. The barista was short. Maybe in a rush and a bit snappy. They lock the bathroom now. So when I asked my barista discreetly for the code she loudly said, "Oh the restroom, the code is..." Wow. She could be more thoughtful. I wasn't trying to announce to the world. Well...the coffee was good.“

“This place is a real gem! The coffee is top notch, especially for me and I’m a coffee snob. But honestly, one of the things that keeps me coming back is the wonderful baristas. They always greet with me a kind hello, seem eager to take my highly complex order, and not to mention have a whitty humor that puts pride and prejudice to shame. Malia is my gurrrrlllll! Like I don’t know what voodoo magic she puts in drinks, but every drink she has made me is sublime, leaving me wanting more. Can’t recommend this place more highly!“

“Had the best afgnotto and chefs choice today! Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

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

“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!“

“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“
