“Great local community vibe with lots of outdoor sheltered seating capacity, multiple food trucks doing quality food and a good range of craft beers. Local entertainment on some nights such as the fiddler quartet. Such a great experience we did it multiple nights while in Bellingham.“

“It's insane how good this place is and their "Second Breakfast" menu is to DIE FOR. Their food stands out amongst other restaurants' brunch/breakfast menu with their items like the savory Shakshuka and thick-cut french toast and I've never been somewhere else in town that does giant cut-fries that are flavored; such a fun experience! Menu Faves: Street Frites (Salt & Vinegar Flavor), Pretzel & Beer Cheese, French Toast w/ Berries & Cream, Farmers Cheese Pancakes, Shakshuka & Postmodern Breakfast Burrito (Bonus point for their delicious Bloody Mary Cocktail)“

“I just tried the pan fried chicken dumplings at Hello Huntersville festival and they were EXCELLENT…possibly the best I’ve had.“

“Comfortable, clean, hip spot with a big variety of yummy beverages, a nice selection of snacks, lots of room for big parties, awesome live entertainment events, an excellent space to meet friends and family, a friendly & warm staff all with a view of beautiful Fairhaven village What else could you ask for!? Go check it out 🍻 cheers!“

“If you like craft beer this will be your new favorite spot. They have a HUGE beer selection from a ton of different micro breweries. This was my first time visiting and I will definitely be back again. If you're in the area...stop in and enjoy. This place was epic.“

“Awesome beer. They excell at all, but my favorite is the barrel aged Early bird Porter“

“Super friendly staff. Always has great live music playing. Prime location. Dog friendly. Beautiful back area with fireplace and patio space for the summer. Very clean. Upbeat vibe. Variety of beer and a really awesome Hazy IPA. Highly highly suggest!!“

“One of my favorite places to go in downtown Bellingham. A great space inside and out with frequent music and events. I attended the Arts & Ales Holiday Market and enjoyed a pint as well as a cup of mulled wine while I shopped the market. Also fueled up with one of their famous bowls, the Banh Mi bowl.“

“We enjoyed coming here before having a dog (fun music, solid beer list, and dogs just running around being silly and having the time of their lives). Now that we have a pup of our own to bring our love for this place has tremendously increased 💓 We come at least once a week, usually more.“

“I’m so thrilled that this boutique winery is right in the heart of downtown Bellingham. Every single wine is exceptionally sumptuous. The atmosphere is down to earth and the service is warm, attentive and welcoming. The price point is a bargain particularly for this high quality of wine. I became a member immediately which provides myself and 3 friends a free monthly tasting plus several others discounts and benefits. If you love wine and want to chill in a unpretentious atmosphere this is the place.“

“A hidden gem! Perfect place for an afternoon cider with your dog, and usually not very crowded. Really yummy cider selection, slushies too! And beer! Even better now that there’s a pizza truck Thurs-Sat (I think) - Tam Tam Pizza, it’s excellent! If you can’t tell, I love lost giants“

“We ate outside on the patio while the street fair was going on. It was a lovely day. Highlight of my meal was the Pear Elderflower Collins. Very delicious. Pricey food for what you received, though the food was good. We had some dietary restrictions due to allergies, but Ayla, our server corrected the mistake just in time! The Cure Square Large Pizza was the favorite. I would come back again.

Parking: Sometimes you get lucky and find a free parking space, like we did!

Wheelchair accessibility: The streets can get steep. I had a knee injury and it was a challenge walking. Steps lead up to the restaurant, not sure if they have an easier access. Parking is very limited.“

“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.“

“Excellent CX Sandwich service was great“

“Great selection of beers. Fun place to hang out“

“Absolutely amazing little find in Bellingham...delicious coffee and superfood lattes served up by the nicest barista in the most beautiful, serene setting. My favorite place to come hang out or work! 💕“

“Good beer Good enviroment I have a great time here“

“This is my favorite bar in Bellingham! The servers like Mikayla and the owner Jessie always make me feel so comfortable and welcome while figuring out what to drink. They have a wonderful selection of beers and ciders as well as non-alcoholic drink options. We've been coming here weekly for almost a year now and love it! Don't miss their oyster pop-ups with Drayton Harbor - they're soooooo tasty!! And definitely check out their other special events like their Silent Book Club - such a fun event for introverts!“

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

“Great ambiance and really yummy food! A must when in Bellingham!“

“Delicious vegan food and drink, plus kind and friendly workers.“

“Great staff, food and beer.“

“Compared to some fish and chip places we have been to, this one wasn’t at all bad. 1 pce halibut and fries….price not bad, piece was small and the fries are skinny. The place was nice and clean. Not as good as back in the UK, but very few places are 😉“

“Don’t eat here unless you want your phone stolen by a waitress!“

“Nice, i love this place. Peaceful“

“just didn't like the two beers I tried. Aftertaste was rude. skunky“

“I had such an amazing time Thursday night playing mini golf then playing bingo! I will definitely be coming back! Also was the best pizza I've ever had! Ate almost the entire thing to myself, also the salad was very good!!!!“

“Good beer Good enviroment I have a great time here“

“Cafe Velo is a downtown gem. Delicious sandwiches and pastries, super friendly staff, and the coffee is wonderful. I have never had a less than optimal experience here—they are just lovely people, and have created an excellent cafe (and bike shop!). Highly recommended.“

“We have tried all the fish places in Whatcom County and The Galley is the best. The Cod, Halibut, Salmon and Shrimp are all very good. The soups are excellent, too.“

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

“Best Italian food in the Valley !! Alberto’s smile and service make the drive from Camano worth it“

“This place is lowkey a silent sleeper because I feel like more people should know about how awesome Greene's is! Breakfast, lunch, dinner; they're all an option! Great pizza and delicious breakfast/brunch options! Love that they're in the part of town that's nestled right between south/central Bellingham (aka the Sunnyland Neighborhood), and everything on their menu is a hit. Menu Faves: Biscuts & Gravy, Breakfast Burrito, Sunnyland Scramble, Chicken & Waffles, Huevos Rancheros“

“Staff was very prompt and friendly. Fast service. Great food.“

“My wife and I had a fabulous experience last Friday. We've been to many restaurants in our 30+ years of world travel and Carnal is with the best of them. Our server Renee and all the staff were pitch perfect.“

“My niece brought me there, I will be going back. Love the blueberries smoothie I had,“

“I was visiting my family and we wanted to stop by for ice cream and I’m so glad we did! This place is so amazing and I love it so much! Will definitely have to come back next time I visit. There is a wide variety of flavors and they let you taste them as well. The servings are pretty large for a good price, I got a mini and I’m glad I did because the ice cream is very dense. They don’t add any air so it is very worth the price. The texture is so different from any ice cream that I have had, it is very stretchy and smooth. It’s so good and I love it. They also serve coffee and milkshakes, I didn’t get any but probably very good as well. The atmosphere is also very cute, they have a world map where you can mark where you are visiting from which is very interesting and fun. The service is also incredible, the staff were so kind and helpful. Overall I would say this place is amazing, I will have to go here again next time I visit.

Vegetarian options: There is some ice cream flavors with marshmallow and things with gelatin. For the most part it is all vegetarian.

Dietary restrictions: I am not sure but I don’t think there are dairy free options. Gluten free options are available as well as vegetarian.“

“The double cheeseburger at ACCOMPLICE is a great take on one of my all time favorite burger styles. It succeeds at being both original and necessary. Quality meat with a slightly coarse grind, excellent maillard crust on both patties, rich tang from the bone marrow mayo, possibly Martin's potato bun was both griddle toasted and steamed, and finally some much needed acid with a little heat to cut through it all from the house made pickles. I'll skip the shrettuce next time, but I always believe in trying the unadulterated classic on my first visit. I'm very happy this absolutely delicious and unique burger is available in Bellingham. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu soon... starting with the Chicken-Bone-Honey Fried Chicken Sandwich. It would be a crime not to.“

“Amazing food and service. Great prices. Pork skins are so yummy“

“😍 I love coming here! When I have had a rough day, or a great day, they are simply THE BEST :) Delicious dirty oat chai's and avocado toast! But the best thing is their warm, kind and compassionate staff. I cannot say enough about them. I am sooo lucky I get to come here :) see you tomorrow! LOL ... but seriously! HA :)“

“Luchadora is a gem in the Bellingham community. They are consistently serving kickass food, genuine connections, and big smiles. From their famed smash burgers (which are even better than you’ve heard), the humongous loaded burritos- looking at you el cholo, to their seasoned to perfection fries- they are raising the bar for food from a truck. Watching them catch their stride at the new location outside Wander Brewing has truly been a pleasure, trust me, I have personally benefitted from it! They go above and beyond to cater to feeding their customers delicious food. I could go on and on, but you should really just stop reading- and go. Thanks Luchadora!

Vegetarian options: The ‘El Cholo’ burrito and impossible burger are standouts, my partner usually feels limited with vegetation options at most food trucks but here she’s never struggled to order something she’ll LOVE.“

“Really amazing take on Hawaiian style food and that’s coming from someone who liveshalf time in Maui. This place deserves MUCH more praise and hype than it gets. Try the Loco Moco… it’s so flavorful!!! And if you’ve been to Hawaii, for real for real, you know.“

“Food: solid food, solid bagels. I always get the rosemary salt. My partner got his sandwich toasted and it became a bit tough so just keep that in mind for big groups. Chicken salad was meh, turkey is good, lox is best in terms of sandwiches.

Service: friendly, efficient.

Atmosphere: pretty chill. Lots of solo and small groups.

I can imagine a perfect way to ease into the day. Downtown is walkable and went on a weekday. Parking is paid street and can get busy but plenty when we went mid day.“
