    We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast at the Peace Arch City Cafe before heading out of Blaine. I enjoyed the omelette while my husband had lobster benedict. He was the benedict was "solid," which is a fairly glowing review from him and I couldn't get enough of the omelette. The restaurant is nice and open (easy for a toddler to burn off a bit of steam without disturbing other guests). You order at the counter and then the food is brought to your table. It's a nice, calm cafe with good food!

    The food was good the potatoes were different which I liked Prices are a bit high for an area like Blaine but maybe the best breakfast in Blaine

    Excellent local restaurant, the owners are always here, one of them cooks. They can make it any way you want if they're not super busy. Breakfast and lunch, plus a bar. Bright and sunny open space. Food is generally great, but as with many restaurants, the bread really lets down the side (a major consideration if you're having a sandwich) .

    Decent little lunch spot in downtown Blaine. Nice sidewalk seating area, too. Menu is super accessible, nothing too outlandish or pretentious. Prices are fair, staff is friendly, and service is prompt.

    This is a great location to get something to eat before or after crossing the US/Canadian border. The staff is super friendly and brought my dog a water bowl when they saw him. I order their omelet, which it came with sourdough bread slices, jam, and potatoes. The omelet needs a bit more seasoning (such as salt and pepper). I really like their jam and wish there was more to go with my bread. Not sure if their sourdough bread is made in the house but it was good with crusty outer and soft, fluffy center. The potatoes were good.

    Clean plate approved.

    This place is amazing. Staff was great. Food was great. Atmosphere was good. My husband took me here for Mother's Day brunch. And it didn't disappoint. Clean plate approved.

    Good service, but sandwiches were just OK. The bread didn't hold up well to wetter sandwich components, makes for a softer sando experience

    Loved it! We stopped here on our road trip to Vancouver. It is bang in the middle of the Blaine…read moreDowntown main street with amazing views of the marina all along. The cafe is a replica of a railway caboose and the kids could relate to the dining car experience. The covered patio is great to sit and munch on food, but on a sunny day, I would however recommend just ordering take out and sitting on the picnic tables right beside the cafe on a sunny day. We ordered a few beverages (Chai Latte, Americano & Maharaja Express) and snack items (ham sandwich & scone) - and everything was reasonably priced and served quickly. The scone was really good though, like better than many of the scones around. We imagined this being a quick coffee stop on the way but ending up spending a good 30mins soaking the views. The pit stop was worth every minute!

    This was my second visit to the Railway Café in Blaine, and I'm already excited to come back again…read more This place is adorable, super cute, eclectic, and filled with hilarious signs everywhere you look. And yes, it really is inside a bright red caboose! The whole space is cozy in the best way, with a little seating indoors and a bit more outside, perfect for soaking in the quirky charm. The menu is huge and everything on it seems to call your name, breakfast all day, tons of sandwiches, muffins, smoothies... seriously, so much to love here. On this visit we had the falafel and the Reuben, and both were delicious. Fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Between the unique setting and the great food, this spot is such a fun little surprise. Definitely worth a visit (or two... or three!).

There is definitely at least one back room, but the main dining room is a bright, airy space that has access to a patio where may even be some live music playing. The tables are gorgeous - all live edge, which might create a bit of an issue if you have short arms and are used to stealing bites across the table, but they are absolutely beautiful and a nice nod to the area. The wine list is extensive and a bit overwhelming, but the service is happy, friendly, and very knowledgeable. In fact, I love when servers don't know, admit it, and find the answer for you - it's humble and shows they really care at getting you what you want. We got the orange wine, which is a new favorite of mine. It's like a rose for reds. Rose:White::Orange:Red. More savory, still light, and best chilled. We had the beet hummus app, which is definitely best eaten with your hands. It's light and delicious. We had the miso black cod, a personal favorite, and the lasagna for dinner and while both were good, the accoutrements with the cod were the true standout. Amazing and I could probably eat two of them. As the restaurant operates on a seasonal menu, we had a strawberry rhubarb cobbler for dessert. I know there is Sunday Brunch, and I can't wait to try it. It's not the cheapest, but it's one of the nicer restaurants in Whatcom, and is definitely worth your pennies. Everything about it makes for a truly nice experience, and we'll definitely be back.

The restaurant is by the 18th hole of the golf course, a great location. We had the option to pick from a indoor and outdoor table, we chose to sit outside on a great day.

I was really disappointed that they only did brunch 1 day a week, but we did come back for it. Service every time was wonderful. The appetizer was bruschetta which is a go-to for me. It was delicious, however the balsamic was really thick and there probably shouldn't have been so much. I did happily eat it all. For the dinner we had scallop with red pepper risotto and mushroom pierogis. The scallops were big and perfectly cooked. The red pepper risotto however was a little overwhelming in the red pepper flavor. My husband thought it was delicious and ate it. The pierogis seemed really underwhelming and store bought. It was cheese pierogis with mushroom and arugula on the outside. I feel like if they were made in-house, the mushroom would be on the inside. They were still really good and I ate them all as well. The brunch is the thing I waited for. The lemon ricotta pancakes were to die for! They were so perfectly soft and cakey. I sadly couldn't eat them all because they were so large so I recommend sharing. Those were definitely the star of the show. I don't plan to come back to this area but if I do I would 100% come here again for the brunch. The dinner menu does change by season so I recommend looking at the menu online.
