The Way Cafe was a cozy, pleasant find on a blustery Birch Bay day. We discovered it after a very…read morechilly beach walk. The food was very good; I had the TBA and my husband had the club sandwich on (homemade??) foccacia bread. Delicious! The coffee was very good as well. My latte was perfect, with a pretty design on top. We sat at a window table, but there is cozy seating in another section, with a semi-walled off area that would be good for a group... or just some solitary quiet study, if it's not busy. They advertised an upcoming family game night, and service was friendly and quick. We'll be back! It's a nice refuge from the chilly weather, about 1-2 blocks from beach public access. Highly recommended.

Steve and I wanted to go to a coffee shop when we were on our most recent trip to Bellingham. Caffe…read moreAdagio was the closest spot that came up that would meet the criteria for this. We both had London Fog drinks and we usually get oat milk with our coffee shop drink purchases and oat milk goes especially well with this particular drink. Of course where would we be if we didn't get pastries. I got a delicious Blackberry Danish that they had while Steve got a savory pastry. Both were quite good and the pastry counter in general I noticed their selection was going fast so it is very popular! Good coffee shop stop and one well worth returning to but it shouldn't be a huge surprise entirely as college towns like Bellingham usually have great coffee shops!

Not too bready - perfectly toasted. Could have used more hollandaise, which I couldn't really taste and is usually the most important part. I would've asked for more if server had ever come back to our table once food was delivered. Alas, they did not. Only reason it's not 5 stars. Bloody Marys were fantastic. Star was probably husband's biscuits and gravy. That gravy was PHENOMENAL and the biscuits were excellent. Overall - service could definitely use improvement but host was very helpful, food was fantastic, ambience was fun, and hats off to the talented chef!

I ordered the croque madame, which comes with a sunny-side egg on top. After eating part of it, I…read morebroke into the egg and noticed something gelatinous on top. I scraped it off with my knife and found it was a big glob of completely uncooked egg white. It was honestly one of the grossest things I've experienced at a restaurant. I sent the dish back, and to the waitress's credit, she was professional and offered to replace it. But I was so grossed out that I didn't want another one. The bigger problem was how management handled it. Instead of comping the dish, they initially gave only a 20% discount. When I questioned it, the manager said that because I had eaten about half, they'd only give me 50% off and that I should have had it replaced. That completely missed the point. Once you find something that disgusting in your food, you're not exactly eager for round two. The waitress was fine, but the manager's response made a bad experience worse.

Our photographer suggested Leaven as a place we could take photos at since we love going to cafes together. We ordered a Cauliflower Crepe, Cauliflower Danish, and Matcha Latte. The crepe was delicious! I love have a savory crepe once in a while, and this crepe had the perfect amount of creaminess from the cheese, crunchiness from the cauliflower and onions, and freshness from the arugula. The same could be said about the danish. They had great components of a creperie/cafe. The Matcha Latte though, was not up to par. It seems it wasn't whisked well, so it tasted grainy. Overall, not taking a point off for it because what they specialize in was so great! Besides the food, the space was pretty lively. During our photoshoot, there was live music and every table was taken up. Leaven seems like a great space for a hangout or catch up with someone. Honestly, If I lived in the area, I would always be down for their crepes.

This place is best for…read morelarger groups as there is limited seating in the sense that there are a few tables that seat 6+ people easily, but we went around 3pm when it wasn't busy so we didn't feel guilty taking one of the larger tables to ourselves when it was only half occupancy. We tried the bioluminescence drink and the toasty marshmallow latte. The bioluminescence drink is very aesthetic and drinks like a soda / energy drink, though it is a one and done for me as I don't feel the sparkles are the most healthy thing. The toasty marshmallow latte was a bit pricy at $7.50 but they had 3 pieces of toasted marshmallow that is perfect (s'mores like but not burnt) and there is a lot of drink. It was on the sweeter side for me. They have Cinnamon Toast Crunch on the side but it was a bit stale, but I won't be docking off a star as there's not much to it and everything else was delicious. We opted to dine in for the aesthetics and I'd recommend doing so as there's higher price point doesn't seem as worthwhile if you take these drinks to-go
