adding this spot to my bellingham rotation! cocktails are affordable (insanely cheap during happy hour) and the service was great. the additional bar in the back area was amazing as well and there was free live music.

Since they opened up the Oddfellows Temple Room in the back, Orion has transformed from a cute but cramped bar into a spacious venue and one of my favorite places to get a drink in the city.

Great fun place for a night out with friends. It can get pretty busy in here and crowded. The drink selection is good with affordable prices

one of my favorite bars, great prices. i love the space themed main bar, then the spooky twin peaks vibe for the backroom.

Idk why there are bad reviews. Been here 2 times with my husband and they are so kind. Hmm.

As a local to Bellingham, I was so disappointed with my experience at Orion. I was hosting a group of friends from out of state (this was our first stop of the night), and while trying to remember a large order of 8 drinks, I incorrectly said one drink wrong (accidentally said “Tito’s and Vodka” instead of “Tito’s and Soda”).
Rather than the bartender asking for clarification, he immediately refused to serve me and said I was over-served and looked under the influence.
As a completely sober and responsible adult, I was shocked and embarrassed in front of my guests. And especially felt judged for how I looked.
Horrible experience in such a “inclusive” town. I do not recommend this location.

Drinks are good, but don't slide down the handrail on the steps unless you want to be barked at by the woman checking

Vibes changed And I'm pretty sure. The lines for their beer need to be cleaned badly
If you have an out of state ID don’t expect to get served here. I went here with my gf and a group of friends visiting from Seattle and the bartender refused to serve, and kicked out my girlfriend and I because the bartender “didn’t feel comfortable” with my girlfriend’s valid New Mexico ID. We are both well above drinking age and I don’t appreciate getting embarrassed in front of my friends. If you’re so paranoid about serving minors and can’t figure out what a real ID looks like, why are you running a bar? I used to love this place but will not be returning.

Great hangout spot for buddies and lots of great drink options (the Gamma Ray is out of this world)

the only bar i’ve been to that can’t figure out that my ID is real, staff is either poorly trained or doesn’t have much going on upstairs
