    So-so experience here. We sat in the covered outdoor area - so cute!! I'm not typically a coffee drinker but we had a long day ahead so I grabbed an iced mocha and it was very good! Ordered lemon curd waffle, the salmon benny and the classic breakfast. The waffle was amazing, the lemon curd and the whipped cream balance each other out so it was neither too sweet nor too tart. I was very excited for, then pretty disappointed with the salmon benny. I had asked specifically for the egg to be hard-poached and it was not at all, ran all over everything. Also did not realize the salmon was not going to be fully cooked either, so I was unable to eat my $18 breakfast plate. I would have asked the server to replace it but the service was pretty terrible and I didn't want to wait any longer for a second order. Overall, the experience was just okay. I would definitely give it a second shot but with much lower expectations.

    This was an interesting place to eat. Located downtown in an old building. Expect to pay for parking. Limited seating. There is a small outdoor seating and some indoor. Kind of cluttered looking open kitchen. Maybe they are going for a hippie appeal? It doesn't say on the menu but they do have gluten free bread and crepes. Some Dairy free milk options. The pesto turkey sandwich was almost all bead, very little turkey. The waffle is not worth $15. There is fresh fruit on it, so that is a plus. The waffle is not sweet, so if you want sweet ask for syrup. The potatoes were good 👍. Staff was friendly. They did not have unsweetened black iced tea! The coffee was pretty good. I think we will skip this place in the future.

    We are here with friends for a Sunday brunch. My friend and I got the Quiche of the day which was yummy, but a little cold for her. She sent it back so they comp-ed it and gave us two free cookies. We also both ordered the raspberry cream cheese croissant, but we got the last one and had to split it. It was delicious which is prolly why they sold out of both. If you don't like cold quiche be sure to ask for it hot. Our hubbies got bigger breakfasts with eggs, bacon and house made sourdough and focaccia which they both seemed to love. We also enjoyed some mimosas in their outdoor dining area which sat on an intersection that had a view of the water down two different city streets. It's a lovely spot I highly recommend.

    Super good and the staff was really nice. The bread to the sandwich was VERY crunchy 😅 but other than it was super delicious!

    It’s an okay-ish spot to grab breakfast when visiting Bellingham for a day-out. There are great flavours of coffee and tea. They also have savoury and sweet flavoured crepes and waffles. The most unique was the orange crepe.

    The breakfast burrito meal was ok. But the waffle was really disappointing. Extremely over priced for a very small waffle. Didn’t constitute a meal price, may as well have just grabbed a pastry.

    Disorderly staff. I went in around 1:15 and didn’t receive my coffee until 1:35. My partner and I ordered 2 americanos and 2 bakery items. We tipped 50% as it looked busy and we felt compassion for the workers. When we told them that we had been waiting for our coffees they made excuses and then acted passive towards us as we were inconveniencing them. When we received the coffees they were filled to the brim, and extremely hot. And I spilt it all over my hands as I walked back to the car. The atmosphere theirs is hectic, but they have amazing art all over the walls.

    Ordered a gluten free sandwich and a salad to go via phone. Person taking the order repeated back to me that I wanted it on gluten free bread. The estimated 10 minute wait ended up taking another 10 once I arrived to pick up my to go order. Got back to work and the food looked suspiciously gluten-ee. Called to check with them, they said it wasn’t rung in correctly, and it was wheat bread and offered me a refund. I agreed to this. It’s been a week and no refund has posted on my account.

    Went with my friend and we split two of the crepes. One was the Apple, Pear, and Brie. The other was the Monte Cristo. Both had a delicious combination of savory and sweet flavors that blended so well together. The side of roasted potatoes were so soft and creamy on the inside, which was a delightful surprise since at some places they can be too dried out. The staff were all kind and the perfect amount of attentive without feeling like we were being rushed.

    They served my mom and I an absolutely delicious and fresh egg sandwich! While waiting for our order (which only took 15 minutes), my mom had a low sugar attack so I asked for some emergency orange juice and the server at the front desk quickly gave her a tall glass of OJ with a croissant. He told us it was on the house! Thank you for saving my mom's life! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Located in the middle of downtown. This is a great spot to pick up pastries and a coffee.There is a to go line and also, indoor and outdoor (covered) seating. We went for breakfast and got in with a minimal wait. Just an fyi (there is no AC inside). The service was friendly and prompt. They are able to make any espresso drinks as well. The food good. Our only feedback was that the county potatoes were a little undercooked. The OJ was delicious and fresh! Do yourself a favor, and get one of their cinnamon rolls, you won’t regret it. 😋

    Known for the best bennys in town for a reason! Such a cute and cozy space with the best waitstaff in town! So attentive and on top of everything, including any mimosa or coffee requests. And the food! Just the best looking, and tasting, poached eggs covered in delicious hollandaise. Plus a waffle with it? What else could you want from your go-to brunch spot?

  • 5/5 M T. 6 months ago on Google
    Yum!!! We had the traditional Eggs Benedict and breakfast sandwich both on focaccia and waffle with lemon curd and local Cascade farm blueberries. All entrées were delicious. Breakfast sandwich as it should be with sous vide egg, cheddar cheese, sausage patty, lettuce, tomato, red onion and whole grain mustard. Will definitely visit again.

    Ate outside. Busy Saturday morning so it took a while for our food to arrive but it was delicious. We had waffles and they were excellent. Great expo and their pastries have been incredible when I’ve picked them up to take home.

  • 3/5 Nicole S. 1 year ago on Google
    Half the food was good. My husband's very good. Mine, not good at all. I'm sure the baked goods are yummy, because that seemed to be what people were coming in for. Service was good, not the friendliest, but that's ok. Everyone is entitled to not be happy/smiley all the time. Probably would try for baked goods, but not a meal.

  • 5/5 Susan H. 1 year ago on Google
    We ate hot ham and melted swiss on freshly baked wheat bread that was awesome! It had stoneground mustard, red onion, mayo, and tomatoes yum yum. We plan to go weekly. P.S. They had a side of vinegar based clear sweet dressing with tiny pickle so good and sliced fresh carrots. We sat outside in the street patio. Very pleasant breeze and can see the water from there. Wonderful 👍😊

    Went to the farmer market location - picked up 5 delicious treats and every one is excellent. Will try the bread next week and stop by the permanent locations once the weather changes and market is finished. Great service, square pay at the market and enthusiastic servers who did a great job of helping us select the best 5 to try

    I was a bit disappointed here. Some staff was friendly, others very aloof. The food concepts are great, but the execution wasn't very good. The crepe that I got was dry and overcooked, and the filling was good in 1/3 of it, but the rest was dry and tasteless. But the Bloody Mary was really good.

    So yummy and very cute! I got the cinnamon roll French toast and potatoes and it was so good. They require proof of vaccination for indoor dining as well which is reassuring but make sure you have a photo of your card.

    Wonderful place, incredible rich and delicious breakfasts and pastries. The reason it only has four stars is the House coffee is a little weak. And I ordered a side of bacon that was past crisp, more like dehydrated crumbly moon bacon. Still I highly recommend the Mount bakery for a really good morning breakfast
