50 Best Bars near Ferndale

“Jamie was surprised to see 5 of us roll in at 8:30 on a Monday but she was so accommodating and did such a good job showing us new drinks that we ended up liking better than what was on the menu. Absolutely top notch service. So happy we stopped by.“

“We tried The Eagle's Nest for the first time a few weeks ago and I fell in love. It has something for the whole family. Their down stairs features a family restaurant in the front, where there is a small nook with a Nintendo Switch and candy machines set up for the kids. The back end is a sports bar with plenty of seating. Up stairs you'll find another bar with a jukebox, 4 pool tables and a claw machine. The whole place was clean and inviting. The food was great and the service was attentive. We are really excited to have a place like this right here on Main Street!“

“Birthday! Brought us yummy truffles. Dad is 93 and can't walk really well. We let him off at valet and helped him in. They were so sweet to him and security brought him out to the car afterwards in a chariot(wheelchair). He and mom raved about the service. Steaks and potatoes were amazingly luscious but a little too salty for our taste.“

“Portage Bay Bar & Lounge is an absolute gem! From the moment you step inside, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a stunning interior that sets the perfect mood for a relaxing night out. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that every guest feels welcome and taken care of.

The drinks? Absolutely top-notch! Whether you’re in the mood for a classic cocktail or something more adventurous, the bartenders here know their craft. The selection is impressive, and every drink is expertly mixed to perfection.

The ambiance is fantastic, especially with the beautiful lighting and cozy seating. It’s the perfect spot to unwind, whether you’re looking for a casual night out or celebrating something special. Located inside Silver Reef Casino Resort, it’s also a great place to take a break from the action and enjoy a quality drink.

If you’re ever in the area, Portage Bay Bar & Lounge is a must-visit. I can’t wait to come back!“

“Amazing atmosphere for all occasions! We loved working with Tomas and his staff to plan an event here. The staff are wonderful to work with, not to mention DownTime Taps has an amazing selection of appetizers and drinks! Very highly recommend!“

“The staff are kind, attentive and do an amazing job: Yes, the food is great!“

“fantastic bar! My friends and I always have a blast! great food, wonderful bartenders. love the atmosphere. they have so many cool bands! The owner Dave has been nothing but great!“

“The best pollo soup I’ve had in a long time.. friendly & prompt service and tidy environment. Can’t wait to come back to this place from Canada! Thank you Nopal!“

“I have been here many times, through a few evolutions of three menu, and it hits every single time. Sometimes I just want to be full after a meal, that can be found anywhere - but when I want to feel good, satisfied, and truly fulfilled with a dining experience, Admiralty is where I go. The drinks are on point, and never disappoint. The service is top notch; the likes of which is harder and harder to find nowadays. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The only critique I could ever come up with would be that I want more items on the menu, only because I want to try every flavor they come up with. Keep doing what you’re doing Admiralty, and I’ll keep coming back!“

“JUXT is such a great spot in downtown. Always hosting fun events, conveniently located, phenomenal service, and their food/drinks are amazing. They've got a great list of craft cocktails and a delicious food menu, too. I especially love getting to enjoy a cocktail flight (either with a friend or solo) while hanging out before a show downtown. Menu Faves: House Fries, Poutine, Loaded Nachos, Falafel, JUXT Mac Cocktail Faves: Love Letter, Time Forgot, Eiffel 75, Bees Markel“

“I cannot recommend this place enough! The food is delicious and there’s a bunch of vegetarian/vegan options like other reviews said, but the service elevates this place to another level. My sister wanted to have her birthday dinner here, and not only was the waitstaff attentive and flexible so she could eat most of the dishes even with her allergies (all of which were so good we ordered multiple), but they made a point of learning her name and wishing her happy birthday. And not only that, but at the end of it all they gave her a handmade birthday card with her name and little notes from all of the staff! We had never been here before! All of this, on top of service so attentive that they noticed when someone’s fork got cleared away accidentally and my water glass never being empty, made this place so memorable and wonderful. I will DEFINITELY be coming back here, and recommending it to everyone who asks.“

“Excellent beer and a great space! Quiet when the first open, which is a great time to hang out with a beer and a book or sketch book. Indoor and outdoor seating, with some outdoor out of the sun. Food pickup window is just outside the indoor seating area on the patio.“

“Uisce’s feels like a comfortable locals’ bar with friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere. The drinks are great and the pizza is really good! That’s the only food option but it’s solid and fits the vibe. There are a couple dart boards and good seating options. We really like Uisce’s!“

“Carne Asada Tacos!!! Best I've ever had, like ever, ever!!!😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋“

“This place does pizza so differently from other spots in town and it's AWESOME! Love that you can either get a whole pie or individual slices and love how fun the different menu items are. I never would have thought to put HUMMUS of all things on a pizza, but their hummus + goat cheese pizza is easily one of my top 10 things to eat here in town. Also, they have a baller cocktail menu and the crew there is always so welcoming and fun to visit with. 10/10!“

“This is seriously a great space for a company outing, date night, or afternoon/evening activity with friends! They have 14 different pinball machines (all maintained by the Bellingham Pinball Collective) with various movie and video game themes, and are such a blast to play! Plus, they've got great food and drinks to enjoy either standalone, or while you're pin-balling upstairs. We had a blast here and 1,000% recommend it to everyone else in town.“

“……………….DO IT!! ……………………..“

“Love everything about the vibe here and highly recommend! Dakota is a master mixologist who can match a cocktail to a mood like a genius. Cozy cool kind and welcoming ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜“

“Friday burger and Fries $6 , best fries in the county!“

“I was there for the games, I wood grab food before you go, McDonald’s is 5 star dining compared to the food I had there. I hope the waitress was just having a bad day, she acted like I just walked in and she closed 5 minutes ago. The drinks that I had were good but on the expensive side. I’ll go back again and see if it was just an off day.“

“love love love this little bar“

“My favorite new bar in town. Finally downtown has an actual sports bar (more upscale) with a full bar. Nate the bartender is fantastic and knows how to concoct good drinks. Service is swift and the vibe is perfect with leather couches, free play old school games, and a good amount of tvs. Food comes directly from Brandywine next door. While the bar menu is a limited menu with sliders and fried cauliflower, you can pull from their full menu if you’d like (especially if you want salads or more veggie options). Brandywine just gladly brings it over. I am glad to see this new offering! Kudos!“

“Great spot“

“Fun people (especially Glynn!) and great food!“

“We enjoyed a Jazz brunch today. The menu was well balanced and the food was amazing! We all had something different and each dish was perfectly prepared and served. The jazz music (piano) was subtle and beautifully executed. A great experience, highly recommended 5⭐️“

“An escape from the day to day BS. My server was a beautiful ginger who really knew the menu. Her recommendation was absolutely perfect for my mood and palate. 10/10. Made my weekend feel like an escape. 🙌🏻“

“Cheap drinks, not over crowded and a unique decor. I love the black light painted constellations.“

“Awesome bartender! Really creepy man was hitting on me and my friends while we were trying to order and the bartender told him to leave us alone and made sure he stepped back!! Appreciate it! Plus the drink was awesome. Always love the parmesean garlic fries which we got as well 😎“

“Just incredible, honestly. The food, the service, the overall vibe, it's the whole package. Excellent food (We had the pesto gouda chicken and bacon balsamic Brussel sprouts). Very pleasant, attentive staff. Such a great experience, we will be back!“

“This has got to be one of the best experiences I have ever had in a restaurant. The good was absolutely amazing! I love the premise of the whole restaurant and the 420 theme 😍 The staff was phenomenal, just an all around wonderful place. Will definitely be coming back😊😊“

“Extremes was just steps from the Holiday Inn Express! Food was excellent and service from Ryan “Scooter” was amazing!!“

“why have you not come in the Beaver yet? unbelievable.“

“I had my brows done here recently and I’m honestly blown away. As a redhead, I’ve always been cautious about trusting someone with brow color, but she understood exactly what would look natural with my hair and skin tone. The results are beautiful — soft, natural, and perfectly shaped. On top of that, the whole experience was professional, comfortable, and thoughtful from start to finish. You can tell she truly cares about her work and her clients. I’m so grateful I found her!“

“The bartender Tom has a mysterious quality about him. Not only will he make you the perfect cocktail but if you ask him nicely he might just let his hair down for you.. rawr! 😉
And you know the tempo is off if you see Brandon wearing a shirt with sleeves ( he never does) so it’s perfect 11/10“

“This was such a a fun venue! Big enough for a crowd, small enough to feel intimate. Great vibes.

You get a hand stamp when you enter and can leave and reenter if you choose too.

They have AC! If you run warm, try to be under a vent.

10/10 would go back in a heartbeat.“

“A no frills dive bar with 1 air hockey table, 1 skeeball machine, and 2 pool tables in the back. Tons of seating. Free popcorn from a machine you scoop yourself! Small staff working there was very nice. There's a change machine for you to get coins to play games.“

“D'Annas is AMAZING! Incredible Italian with a menu full of classic dishes that are sure to please everyone. Everything tastes like that perfect "made-from-scratch" taste that you love in Italian cooking and their pasta is DELISH! Plus, their desserts are SO GOOD and make for a great ending to your meal. A definite stop to make next time you're downtown. Menu Faves: Bruschetta, Puttanesca, Spaghetti Marinara, Chicken Parmesan, Gnocchi, Tiramisu, Cappuccino Cream Chocolate Mousse“

“Enjoyed dining on Christmas Eve! Best Singapore Street Noodles ever! Highly recommend!“

“Grew up going here. Always quick and always good food. I remember as a child they even had someone dressed as Santa visiting tables and he gave me a Barbie. Pretty neat memory as a kid!“

“Always a favorite! I don't make it here as often as I would like to, but I try to go when I am in town. Wonderful people, great atmosphere.“

“This is the best restaurant I have been to here in Wilmington I am a chef of over 50 years and this food is Michelin Star quality“

“My favorite place for fishnics with the kids and weekend eats! I can order out and take it to the beach or meet with friends and family for great food and island atmosphere. The short ferry ride there and back is a plus!“

“We stopped in for lunch and it was fantastic! Caprese sandwich with prosciutto was one of the best I’ve had and crab bisque was topped with fresh crab and delicious. But best part was service. Sarah was our server and bartender and made delicious fresh handmade cocktails. Amazing!! Will be back for sure.“

“Always excellent food and service.“

“It's a bar with pool tables that are a bit too close together. They allow people under 21 to eat and play pool. Until 8 or 9. It fills with college students as the evening goes on. We didn't see bad behavior or rudeness. Itsa chill dive bar that's good for hanging out. Rec canned or bottled drinks over mixed cocktails here.“

“Great local place to drink 🥤“

“My favorite place to eat in all of Seattle.“

“My hubby & I love coming to Chihuahua’s for lunch and dinner often! Great food, services & you really feel apart of the family.“

“We came for lunch and were really impressed with the service, price and most importantly the food. Everything was fresh, flavorful and delicious. My husband was not a fan of Indian food until dining here. We are working on a project near by and this will be our go to lunch stop.“

“My favorite meal in Lynden! Mushroom Burger & Salad I also love the atmosphere & ambiance! The staff are the friendliest! Highly recommended“
