I really appreciate the wrap option, as it makes it easier for clinicians to place their selections to the side if they are in a rush. The pasta, and spinach vegetarian wrap were delicious. I can't wait to go back to Bellingham just to grab lunch here before I head back home; I highly recommend!

How I heard of this place: While Avenue Bread has been a Bellingham staple for a number of years,…read moreit was my sister, visiting from out of state that introduced us to the Fairhaven Cafe. Type of cuisine: Bread. All things freshly baked: bread edition. And all things on freshly baked bread. Sandwiches, pastries, coffees and more. Ambiance: Cozy, and vast, the space is equal parts grandma's country house charm and idyllic Fairhaven. The front is quickly bustling as we enter right as the doors open for the day, a line immediately building up behind. us. This spacious entryway full of menus in chalk and digitally are graced with a plethora of tasty options for snacks, meals, and treats enjoyed in the large, expansive restaurant or outside in the parking space-turned patio seating area. What I ordered: We selected four of their breakfast sandwiches on signature rosemary bread, each one as delicious as the last. For beverages, a mocha, an americano, and two steamed milks made their way to our table. What I loved: The sandwiches. Greasy, full, tasty and full of a novelty of tastes. They were devoured. Why I loved it: Quaint and cozy, a space for couples, families, friends and everyone in between. Cost: Average to high

Mofongo. Yes, please!…read more First time in Fairhaven, and we came across this gem. I wasn't sure what to expect, having had some of the best Puerto Rican food from South Florida. But, I was hopeful and they delivered! The mofongo was close to some of the best I've ever had. We tried it with pork, which was cooked nice and crispy on the outside, yet tender and juicy on the inside. Also tried one of their cocktails (I forget the name) which was tasty as well. Service was decent. Location was clean and cozy. Portions felt reasonable. If you haven't tried Puerto Rican food before, do yourself a favor and check them out! Worst case you help a local business flourish by paying a visit, best case you expand your flavor palette and find a new favorite!

We were looking for a late day lunch in the Ham, and Cheba Hut has been on my radar for awhile. So…read morewe headed down on a snowy Friday and shared a 12" Thai style sub and a couple of cold beers. The sub was great, though it had more of a teriyaki vibe than any Thai notes. Still, it was loaded with chicken and veggies, and the two of us couldn't even finish it. Glad we shared! When we noticed they had Georgetown Brewing beers on tap, we grabbed a Manny's and a Bodhi and didn't look back. While Cheba Hut is a fast-growing chain restaurant, they've done a great job of looking very local with their vibe and decor. They definitely fit right in at this Old Town Bham location. Giving them an extra star for the seriously friendly, amazing, and lightning fast service.

Old World Deli is a true Bellingham staple- have been coming here for the last 5 years, been to…read moretheir swag raffle when they were rebranding for renovation, met the owner and even did wine tasting. They've renovated recently, but kept the heart of what makes the place special. It's now more modern, but still feels the same in all the right ways. Every time we're driving to or from Vancouver, this is a must stop for us. Folks that work there always give me the feeling they they like what they do and they know what they are doing. Their wine selection is quirky and fun. And near the register, there are often bottles you just won't see in typical US liquor stores. I usually pick one or two to try. On the food side, we always, always get the beet salad, german potato salad and mac salad- they are all made european style. Those are non-negotiable sides for us. Last visit they had a watermelon gazpacho on the specials menu that perfectly balanced sweet and bright, super refreshing. What they do best is keep things simple but execute flawlessly. A good chunk of the sandwiches you can get half ( then they become slightly expensive halves due to pricing :) )Great bread, great ingredients, no fuss. The Italian sub is proof. It's classic and spot on. My personal go-to, however, is the horseradish roast beef, fantastic combination. And the rotating panini specials are always worth a look. If you're passing through Bellingham, give yourself an excuse to stop in. We certainly do, every single time

I started with oyster shooters (Willapa Bay) along with a Lion's Tail cocktail. Sierra said the bourbon and lime complement each other. I wouldn't have thought so and thought it a bit of an odd choice. But she was right and I was wrong: it was fabulous. One of the most delicious drinks I've ever had, for my tastes. She gave me several recommendations for dinner. I picked the Jalapeño Chicken. It was luscious and flavorful, but the best part of it was my choice of Balsamic Brussels sprouts as my side--oh my! These were so delicious I ordered two more batches to have at home. Lovely espresso martini to end it all.

We were seated promptly by a friendly hostess at a table in DT Fairhaven, and our server was the bartender. After being seated, we waited a long time without anyone taking our order. We eventually asked if we had a server and were told it was him, with no apology or explanation. We ordered drinks and food, but after more than 40 minutes, we noticed two tables seated after us had already been served, finished eating, and were leaving. At that point, we asked for the check and said we would not be staying. About 15 minutes later, the server returned with our food instead of the check. We declined the meal and sent it back. He then asked if we wanted it boxed to go, which we also declined. His reaction suggested frustration rather than understanding. We never got to try the food, so we can't comment on it. The service, however, was well below expectations given the restaurant's reputation. This was lunch on July 15, 2026. We may try The Black Cat again in the future, hoping this was just an off day.
