What initially drew me in was the atmosphere—that is, they keep the lights very dim here, exactly how I like it.
It should go without saying the nachos are the best I’ve ever eaten, anywhere—I strongly suggest the carne asada street nachos.
The music list is really awesome, especially if you enjoy 90s/00s era indy and industrial rock.
Should also say, there’s a pretty good karaoke each Friday, starting at 8pm.
(There's been a few mishaps with the queso sauce, I admit, but don’t let that be a dealbreaker—ie I’ve gotten it where it was boiled down to rubber on one occasion. The owner was extremely understanding and massively generous—ended up giving me some carne asada nachos as a “reparation”. A few other people were upset about this in the other reviews, but they fixed it)

Oh, there's definitely problems!
I don't think I've had worse nachos than these.
I ordered two kinds: the BBQ Pork nachos and the Chicken nachos.
BOTH HAD BURNED CHIPS! They really use too thin/too flimsy chips for their nachos. Like, why are you using the incorrect chip type for this?! You need thicker, sturdier chips for nachos that can hold up to the heat!!! Other reviews mention this issue, too! Why hasn't the owner fixed this problem yet?
BOTH WERE SMALL IN SIZE. From reviews and word of mouth, I guess I was expecting good-sized portions that could each feed 2+ people to share, like most restaurant's nachos. That was not the case here. There was one thin layer of chips in the boxes, with cheese and toppings used sparingly on top. Each maybe the size of a dinner plate. There is no layering and no height. And for what they're charging, a huge disappointment.
BOTH WERE BLAND AS HELL. Menu said, "pulled chicken," but only cubed chicken is what was used, and it wasn't even seasoned. What's the point of jalapeños when they've been pickled because they lose their heat; Nothing but a useless green garnish. I don't know how they prepared their pork, but even the stingy drizzle of bbq sauce couldn't hide the dryness of the meat. And canned sliced black olives don't add a damn thing to either of these!
NOT A GOOD TIME.
We did get these to-go, they were being kept in a warming cabinet when we arrived, and they were eaten within 20 minutes of pickup. But, folks, and I don't say this lightly, as someone who's worked in kitchens for years, but we got food poisoning and ended up gracing the porcelain throne with half digested nachos the next morning. Do I know for sure it was the nachos? No. But no other remains came back up except the nachos, and we both immediately felt better after they came out. Take that info however you like.
WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

Tried the BBQ and the gas station. Both were burned. The queso was not good and stuck to my teeth as well as the roof of my mouth. The ground beef was almost non existant no flavor and wierd texture. The BBQ had too much BBQ sauce. It was layered but burnt on the outside then the center was not melted. The bartender was nice though. Probably won't go back. Can get much better nachos at a much more reasonable price at any Mexican restaurant in town.

Very chill spot, pleasantly surprised to see darts, shuffleboard, and a pool table upon visiting.
Nachos were tasty! Sizable portion that easily fed two hungry lads.
Would have loved to see a bit more non-alcoholic offerings.
The nachos were burnt and the asada had no flavor and tasted like rubber. The service was nice, but tbh, you can make this at home and save a lot of money. There needs to be better seasoning in the meat, there needs to be a more fresh cheese option, and there were no layers. Why isn't there a queso option for nachos too? Unless I didn't see it could be the case tbh.
Overall service was slow but still seemed like nice people. The nachos were a huge let down. Maybe it's cause bellingham is such a flavorless town I heard good things and got hyped. At the end of the day, I blame myself for getting excited about this day. I see potential... but I also see burnt chips
huuuugggee nachos, great service, and wonderful atmosphere! i keep coming back!

A plate of nachos can feed two. The street corn are my favorite, and I love that there are darts and shuffleboard. Psychedelic dive vibes
