Our wonderful server, Seth, immediately and proudly proclaimed (with smile) that they use premium liquors for all their Happy Hour pours (at a mere $5!) I ordered the Rosemary Gimlet from their Unique Cocktails list: House infused rosemary gin, fresh basil, lime juice, simple syrup--it was total perfection.

I ordered the chilled sweet and sour potato and was very disappointed. $17 for what I got was insane. It was just a few slivers of potato and carrot on top of cold vermicelli. I loved the decor and atmosphere, but it was a very underwhelming experience for me. I'll definitely give it another try and give something else a try.

The place has potential but honestly disappointed. See photo below of the Hummus Platter. Really? Next came the "Baked Brie with Figs & Cherries" - which sounded delicious. No figs in sight - yes, a ramekin of baked brie with a bit of cherry in it, but... uninspired. We also ordered the Stuffed Potobello - and left most of it on the plate. Pros? It was close to our hotel, and has charming half-moon booths. Summary? Uninspired with potential.

This is what they mean when they use the phrase, curated mixology. They have crafted libations that will suit anyone's taste, and do so with excellent presentation and quality. This is a place that you go to and feel classy immediately upon walking in. Not so in a pretentious way, but in comfortable way. Also, their food menu consist of small tapa style food; The cheese stuffed dates are enough to send you to heaven! Excellent for a date night or night out with the girls/guys.

We got a couple cocktails and they were all delicious. They have a game shelf by the bathroom for folks to play games like mancala or skipbo.

I also overheard someone ask the bartender to "surprise me" with a drink, which seems like a fun option.

I came with a group of 6 for happy hour. Great happy hour menu with discounts on cocktails, wine, and some food selections. I wanted to try everything, but stuck with the happy hour menu - I had the Caesar salad, bar mix (seasoned pretzels and nuts), and the prawn roll. I ended up having the Ranger Life and Scarlet Fire. Highlight was definitely the prawn roll. Fresh prawn with a perfectly seasoned sauce and buttery roll. Epic! The Scarlet Fire...please never take this off the menu. Slightly sweet and tart with a hint of smokiness from the mezcal. Perfect! The service was great and friendly. I really loved the whole vibe as well as the soul music in the background. I will be back to check out more of the menu.

We walked by Amendment 21 and saw the jazz brunch menu and honestly it was perfect, didn't have to go out in the rain, thank god. The place wasn't busy which was nice, and it's got this cool old-timey vibe, like a classy prohibition bar but still comfy. There was a guy playing guitar live which totally fit the mood. Our waiter was great, super friendly and happy to go find answers for us when we asked questions. You could tell he actually cared. Hubby got the corned beef scramble and an orange juice and I got a coffee cocktail that was AMAZING. The best part was watching our server train the other staff on how to make my drink, so I got to lowkey eavesdrop on the whole process. Kinda fun! I also ordered a side of fruit and it was shockingly fresh, dragon fruit, orange, blueberries, like not sad hotel fruit at all. After my cocktail I wanted just a regular coffee and the server was awesome, he brought out coffee and fresh whipped cream and topped me off. Seriously such a small but amazing touch. Everything about it was just chill and cozy. Great service, fun vibe, and being able to charge it to the room was the cherry on top. We didn't even have to go outside in the rain. Total win.

Orion gave us menus and let us chill for a minute with our decisions - - but we still had questions... and got answers. DRINKS Great warm you up drinks and a comfy couch. This is what you want after a long drive up to Bellingham. Amendment 21 & Orion didn't disappoint! FOOD Apparently there's food here too? But it's Bellhingham. And why do I keep putting an extra "H" in Bellingham. Frick. There are some tasty spots around here to check out. LOCATION This is inside the lobby of a hotel. The hotel isn't remarkable from the street, but come in past a pair of elevators and into the dark hotel bar up the stairs. There are a few high tables and stools at the bar, but the key spots are the deep couches in the middle of the room. I completely forgot to look at the historic photos covering the walls of the bar. Apparently, there's a tour/escape-roomish thing that goes on in the hotel as well? Have fun.
