This bar use to have the best fish n chips. We would order the captains plate, very good! Recently this business has changed ownership and has a new cook. The food is now terrible!! I ordered one piece fish n chips with a bowl of clam chowder. The one piece of fish didn't taste too bad but was the thickness and size of a half of piece of bread for $18 !!! The clam chowder tasted like watered down milk and had that consistency. It had oil floating on top and big chunks of undercooked potatoes. That was the worst chowder I have ever tasted, bad...really bad and way too expensive. Even the coleslaw was changed and not good either! I don't understand why they changed their food when it use to be so good. I would have paid a couple dollars more for good food like it use to be but I won't pay anything for terrible food or for an $18 piece of fish the size of a half of slice of regular bread! Bye bye Waterfront your food sucks!!

This is a dive bar and I love dive bars. Beer is cold, food is hot, view out the window is fantastic. Every time I am in Bellingham it is a must stop for me.

Haven't had the fish & chips for awhile (they were great before) ordered them tonight and the batter tasted very bland , plus the tarter sauce was different also. The price went up and the amount of pieces went from the to two. Will find another place to get my fish & chips in the future.

The Waterfront Tavern is a bar among bars. Thank you for your strong drinks, great food, and unpretentious ways. Best bar in Bellingham, irrespective of the best views in town to boot.

Friendly staff, good service and lots of good vibes. This place is a hopping hangout, and occasionally they have live music. Their menu is good and can be navigated for gluten-free options.
Fish and chips. Banging. People are weird about this place, but those that know. Know. A serious treasure. No pull tabs at the moment btw.

The locals at the bar were very welcoming and easygoing. The staff and food were excellent. This had all the makings of my kind of real 5 star occasion.

Terrible stench. Didn't stay long enough to order food or drinks.
