Overall a decent place. I won't say this place has the best ambience - to be honest I found the place a bit dirty. However they definitely have some good coffee options. I have never seen hemp milk as an option but they have that. I didn't try it but was definitely curious. I tried their cookie and was left unimpressed. The cookies didn't feel fresh and were cold and wrapped up in plastic. I don't recommend their cookies. However the coffee was good and low in sugar. Liked it. As for the barista, the service is fast. They will quickly attend to your order. read more

Seems like a great spot for regulars/locals! As visitors, wasn't the most welcoming atmosphere. Cold brew was a bit watery, and rose latte was ok! A nice place for a quaint/quick caffeine stop :) read more

This old town of Bellingham is, let's just say a very interesting place. Parking wasn't a problem with bikes but if you have a car it may be a challenge. The coffeehouse has some great large bakery items. Not sure if the muffin was baked this week but overall it filled a void and held me over for our ride through Chuckanut. Little dry, iced mocha was good. I will give the worker kudos when she asked me if she could put all the items in one box instead of separately. #savetheenviroment. Two other muffins, we ordered; chocolate and lemon lavender was meh, nothing great. read more

Ideal location spot with lots of different seating (couch, raised table with chairs, large group table, etc). Place has great vibes and the price is good, especially compared to competition. I got an iced caramel latte and a slice of Bellingham Fog Blueberry and Earl Grey Cake- a very generously sized cake slice for only $6 the two workers were very kind and efficient, getting out drinks very quickly Taste, service, vibes- 10/10, definitely coming back read more

Delicious food and drinks and great service. The ambiance however is not great it's very small and cramped so to-go is best.

Love this place. Always so relaxing and the perfect place to read. Their tea, coffee, and snacks are fantastic! read more

I'll stop the review at the attitude. A zero for attitude that was so upsetting that rating anything else is pointless. Plenty of other places where to bring your $$$ Not here, not mines read more

I had a craving for some pastries and this place definitely hit the spot. I ordered their cinnamon rolls which are massive, (barely fit in the little to- go box) and their mocha cake. Both incredible delicious and definitely will be getting them again in the near future read more

This is more of a bakery than a coffee house, but unfortunately, the "coffeehouse" in the name doesn't measure up. Service was great, tho! By the numbers Food 3/5 Coffee 2/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance NA (Covid) Value 4/5 Americano - OK. Coffee was over roasted, burnt, and bitter. Dunno what to say to guide them, but in the PNW, you gotta take coffee seriously if you're gonna put in the name of your business. Cinnamon roll - Good. Was a bit dry, possibly due to Covid inventory issues. Had a very nice caramelized layer on the bottom, and the cream cheese frosting was tasty. Dough wasn't very chewy, tho. read more

I love this place. I was brought here today for my birthday and the decor/layout is so comfortable and calming, their raspberry cake is AMAZING, and the customer service is top tier as well. I'll be coming back here regularly read more

Oh man :( We decided to spend each of our last $5, after paying all our bills and the atrocious bham rent, on these little drinks as a treat. But it was so sad, my chai was just a steamed milk with no flavoring and had little pulp like inedible seeds and the mocha was just burnt espresso with one drop of chocolate. We were so disappointed, getting a drink that ends up having no flavor or burnt was such a downer, especially with knowing that was my last drink until my next paycheck.. read more

It was my first time coming in, maybe I will need another try. I think the aesthetics of this coffee shop is casual, inviting, and pretty hipster. I do have to say there isnt a ton of room at this location. If its you and one more or two more people this would be a good place. But not very friendly for large "parties". I noticed when others ordered they were offered or ask about a stamp card, or anything else for their order. When the barista took my order they were very short with responses, didn't ask if I had a stamp card, and left to make my coffee. Just interesting that not all their customers get the same customer service. I will come back because I enjoyed the coffee shop and my caramel latte was good. read more

Great service and good coffee. I had a single 8oz mocha so I didn't get to taste the coffee too much, but the chocolate was not overwhelming and it was a good temp. The pastry case looked amazing but we had just come from breakfast! The staff were all masked and so, so nice! read more

I've always loved and been loyal to this place. I tip more than $1 bill. Blonde woman working was openly hostile to me, to the point others I was with and didn't know, were shocked because I was being very kind. Easy order. Won't go back - lost a loyal customer of 20 years ‍ read more

Delightful. Just was I needed an excellent cappuccino and a pastry. All top notch. I will be back.

Not sure why this was listed as the top coffee spot in Bellingham. Coffee was average, and the day old muffin was easily a week old. Also, like establishments in the area, it's full of woke propaganda like "free Palestine" posters. Not very welcoming. read more

This place is great! Good coffee. Fun options. Good lil pastries and good non caffeinated options that lots of places forget to think about. I love the Lavender Italian soda and they had this crazy iced tea for a little while that tasted like girl scout cookies. That was wild. The baristas are nothing but kind and helpful. They are always happy and fast to give personal recommendations which I personally love. It's smack dab in the middle of downtown so the location is great. They have art up on the walls which is always fun too look at if you get bored just waiting. I love this place but there's not a ton for me to say. Just a solid downtown coffeeshop. read more

Decent enough baked items but sadly the Coffee just isn't very good...

Thought I'd treat myself to Avellino's coffee this morning, boy am I disappointed. The coffee is weak and lukewarm. The server asked, I thought, if I wanted room for cream; I asked her to repeat the question. Again I thought she asked if I wanted room for cream, so I said yes pls. When I got home (2 blocks away, I drove...) I was disappointed that the coffee was white, really white. I guess it's cream, which I did not want.  It was cold, so I heated it up. Tastes like dishwater. Bought a Pecan Caramel roll and a "donut". There is no difference in the dough for either product that I can detect, it's the same, which is basically a sweetened bread dough. Would have done better to have gone to BGO for a 'Big Debbie'. I asked if they have any of that ginger beer they've been touting, said I'd like 2 of them, pls. The server rang me up: $25.00!! I asked how much is the ginger beer - it's $8.00 for 11oz.. I didn't think there was alcohol in them but I asked if there was on account of the price, she said no. So I just bought one bottle. My rare treat for myself this morning, cold, weak undrinkable coffee, 2 tasteless lumps of dough which will end up in the trash, and $18.00 down the tube. I've not opened the ginger beer yet. Now here's why I'm mad about this. Bellingham folks are really putting in a great deal of effort to support each other and our local businesses. If you want that support to continue you need to put extra effort in your product/service. It's being done by most businesses that are open now; I see food from restaurants and food trucks being created with fresh product and creative, unique meals. Here's a thought: Don't serve us crap just because you can. Better if you just stay closed completely because I for one will not forget how I came to your shop in good faith and cheerful support and could not have been more disappointed. read more

Holy cow this place has amazing baked goods. Pretty great, personable service too, and they always have something Interesting on their walls. I usually go for a chai and a biscuit but if I'm feeling extra I might go for their amazing cream puffs or cinnamon rolls. Just amazing. read more

Visited from out of town with our family, including 2 kids. After ordering, we asked the barista for cups of water for the kids because they wanted it. We could hear the barista tell another customer that they were busy with families today and uttered "Karen" referring to my wife. We were only family in the place. Unpleasant experience overall. :( read more

REAL cafe! Excellent espresso. Very good treats. Comfortable atmosphere. Easy place to study, meet a friend, or read a book. read more

My favorite coffeehouse in town!! The coffee brings me back but the people make me stay. The employees always connect with everyone that comes through, and the vibe there is welcoming whether you are in a hurry or looking for a place to sit down. And no matter how full the place is, there is somehow always a spot to hang if you do want to stay! Homemade whip cream, tons of fresh baked goods like donuts, giant muffins, and bagels... quiches, and even plenty of gluten free options, they have everything you need inside this place where everyone is welcome!! read more

Whenever I'm in downtown Bellingham, I always find an excuse to stop in at Avellino Coffehouse. This quaint and adorable cafe sits on 1329 Railroad Ave and has an impressive collection of classic desserts. My personally favorite is the Giant cream puff! The pastry is always perfectly baked, flakey, and moist and the sweet vanilla cream is tangy and light. It's topped with chocolate and is great for sharing....or not! They also have a good selection of coffee and drinks. The have a punch card system so I recommend asking about that for some tasty perks! In my personal opinion, Avellino is just one of those businesses that makes Bellingham so great! read more

Watery, Midwestern-style coffee. Dry morning glory muffin. Not up to Pacific Northwest coffee house standards - in my opinion.

Gray local experience. The pastries are wonderful. The staff is exceptionally kind. Even if things run a little chaotically, I'm happy to patronize such a quaint local coffee shop that celebrates unique, human experiences. read more

I had been struggling to find a coffee shop in Bellingham, and even Seattle, that had good coffee. Avellino answered alllll of my prayers. I was beginning to think that I was doomed to drink weak and bitter coffee forever! I came across this coffeehouse as I was getting bagels next door; however, the bagel place didn't have coffee and I honestly couldn't wait any longer. I took a chance at Avellino, and I'm overjoyed that I did! They have phenomenal espresso. The taste of it was unlike any other. With good espresso comes great lattes! I'm not a fan of hot lattes, but, nevertheless, I ordered one. I inhaled it in like...tops five minutes because of how delicious it was. By far the best coffeehouse in Washington that I've tried thus far. They also have a wide selection of baked goods, but I tried the lemon bar and fell in love! Overall, the employees are sweet and welcoming, the espresso is first-rate, and their pastries are fresh and landslides beyond just good. I'll most likely become a regular here when I move to Bellingham this year! read more

What a delightful coffee shop. My girlfriend and I are currently visiting from out of town and wanted to see what was up with coffee here in the northwest. The verdict is that we are dealing with very tasty stuff... I got the "Dolce Fine", which is an espresso shot with a bit of vanilla, ice, and cream, in a shot glass rimmed with sugar. To complement this, I went with a Turkey Milano sandwich with a side salad. The sandwich consisted of turkey, provolone, lettuce, tomato, and sweet pimentos; all assembled using a perfectly baked croissant! The staff were very warm and welcoming. They were eager to give us information about Vancouver, BC, give us quarters for the meter, and even served our food to us. The atmosphere is very relaxed and cozy, I am sitting on the soft leather couch as I write this... The music is old fashioned and Sinatra-esque, which is a plus in my book. At the time of this review, the WiFi password is: railroad Enjoy! read more

Avellino Coffeehouse - Turkey Milano, Dirty Chai Latte, Dolce Fine - Bakeries Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

I love this place. I went twice last week to grab a warmed veggie and cheddar biscuit with butter ... Customer service is always quick and friendly. The chai tea here is from actual chai leaves and tastes different than other mainstream places, give it a try but just know it's a different taste than what you're probably used to. The gal said that they do have chai liquid that's more familiar, but like I said it's worth a try the way they do it! You might just want the honey when she offers if you like it sweet. I can't say this enough... get the veggie and cheddar biscuit!!! read more

If you're looking for a place to sip, surf and chill for a bit, this is your best cafe option on Railroad. The espresso..... well, let's just say you might want to order a Cappuccino. The gluten free/dairy free bites are okay, probably best when fresh. The counter help is friendly, but yeah, you may have to shout 'hello?' as they are busy in the back. Check out the antique Italian espresso machine above the door, it's awesome. Also, how to say this... If you're a straight male in your 20's.... um.... you should hang out there. read more

I stopped in to get some work done on my computer around 7:20 on a Sunday morning. I ordered something sweet- a cinnamon roll and it was very good. I will say that Mount Bakery's cinnamon rolls are much better!.The something savory I ordered was the herbed cheese and bacon biscuit, which was not as flavorful as I'd hoped. The vanilla latte was standard. It was a good experience, not exceptional. the workers had not had enough coffee for themselves as they were moving pretty slow. read more

How I heard of this place: While it has been a downtown Bellingham staple for over a decade, it wasn't until a good friend of ours began roasting and selling his own coffee, that we truly made note of Avellino - one of his customers! Type of cuisine: "We make excellent coffee, our bakery is in-house and runs at full steam, we have free wi-fi, daily newspapers including the NY Times, and our packed cafe is a testament to our service. Our approach is friendliness before snobbery, and a fair price for an above average product." Ambiance: Quaint and cozy, a true Bellingham cafe, boasting amber-lighting, mismatched furnishings that one might find at grandma's house, friendly staff and an easy, laid-back setting. What I ordered: A short (8-ounce) Chai ($2.80), made in-house and a warmed up Pesto Cheese Roll ($4.50). Our dining companion also selected the Pesto Cheese Roll - he claims it's the best pastry made at Avellino - and a small mug of Gourmet Drip Coffee ($1.95), while my husband splurged with a Grande Caramel Latte ($4.55), and two toasted, sliced and buttered sausage, cheese and herb biscuits. What I loved: The Pesto Cheese Roll, closely followed by the creamy, smooth, Caramel Latte. Why I loved it: It's in Bellingham. I Bellingham. Cost: Average ($2.60 - $5.05 per espresso beverage) read more
