Excellent. Thoughtful baked goods that tasted excellent. I will return here on another trip.

As someone who is gluten free and dairy free (by preference, not celiac), this place is top notch! Been here a total of 3 times and every time the breakfast sandwiches and coffee are great. The gluten free focaccia is especially good. read more

Breakfast sandwich wasn't good. Cookie was good. But what's up with this place being a co working space. Seriously.... I work from coffee shops but I choose smaller tables or bars. Both 6 person booths had 1 person working with empty coffees when we got there. 45 mins later still there with empty coffee. While my family if 4 ate breakfast huddled around a 2 top. Management should manage this awful situation for people who actually want to eat there and not just work with free wifi. read more

Today I had a few hours worth of work I needed to get done, so I went to Camber to hunker down with a well-made coffee and some food. When I got there and after I had already ordered my coffee, they let me know that today is their Chef's day off so it is only coffee. Hmm, it would have been nice if this was posted anywhere, but ok. I waited about 10-15 minuted for my coffee to come up, and when it did, there was no art, and it was not really all that hot. For a $6 and self-proclaimed gourmet coffee, I did expect a bit more than this. After all this, the internet was too slow for me to do work anyways, so I left to a different spot to do work. This was such a bummer as I have had really good experiences here in the past, possibly COVID hit them hard and they are still recovering. read more

This place is such a go to spot for me to have a meeting or get some work done. Love the details like the wooden tray w sparkly water that comes w my espresso. Their gluten free ricotta toast w house made jam is super yum. And they have gluten free ciabatta my friends. I only wish they had a dark roast and opened at 7am. This late opening drops my going there by over 50-60%. All us early risers settle in someplace else. read more

Definitely recommend this place! Nice location with lots of natural light. They offered a good selection of food. I really enjoyed my sandwich with the house made carrot sauce. My oat latte was good as well but nothing special (it's still good just not amazing). The service was great, they were super helpful on deciding what to order. read more

Camber Coffee - Brown butter chocolate chip cookie, chai latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

TLDR: Camber's Flagship Café is a gem of a coffee shop in downtown Bellingham. I definitely recommend you pay it a visit! Make sure you chat with the baristas for recommendations and lots of fun details. The Service The barista that advised and served me really knew her stuff! And, despite having a couple others in line behind me, took the time and care to discuss their coffee offerings with me in detail. The Coffee I had the Birthday Blend espresso (neat), which is a double Ethiopian blend. The double shot was well extracted and overall delightful! Stone fruit came through both on the nose and in the cup. It had a syrupy body and a very balanced acidity. The floral notes that one might expect from an Ethiopian were largely covered by the darker roast (specifically for espresso). I also had the Blueberry Fields, one of Camber's rotating seasonal drinks created in-house by their baristas. The Big Joy espresso came through the iced latte to create a satisfying, sweet blend. The jammy blueberry compote was a refreshing and sweet finish to the layered iced latte. The Atmosphere The café is modern, with lots of nice touches. Pink Himalayan salt grinders and local, fresh flowers, were standout to me. The music was old-timey, with songs like "The Rising Sun Blues," and "Jolene." Perfect for a morning coffee meet-up, a little brunch, or a fresh spot to dive into a good book! read more

This place is so lovely. I live south of Seattle, but every time I visit Bellingham I really enjoy stopping at Camber- it's like a special treat for sure! This little coffee shop is tucked on the corner of the main road downtown Bellingham. Camber has always been a chic, clean, and welcoming coffee stop and they've only gotten better over the years. At my last visit I enjoyed one of their breakfast sandwiches. It's my understanding that these are newer menu items for Camber and they are AWESOME! The sandwich had egg, a slightly spicy meat patty, and all kinds of good sauces. It was also on a heavenly rosemary biscuit. I literally devoured it. I also had an 'Apple of my Chai' Latte, which was unreal. It was like literally drinking fall from a mug. Camber also has a small bakery selection with items like cookies and muffins. They provide cups for in house beverages or to go as well. I love everything every time I visit Camber. I highly recommend stopping by! read more

Just holy dang good! Biscuit sandwich with sausage and egg is the best! And the cortado with oat milk makes the winning combo. Throw in great friendly service to make this my favorite breakfast spot in Bellingham! Sorry no picture because I ate it all. read more

I got a short latte and a bag of beans from here a little while ago on a trip to Bellingham. The latte was okay, but had kind of an off-putting sour flavor. I'm not sure if it was a result of acidic espresso or what, but if left an acrid taste in my mouth. The coffee was also pretty pricey and I expected a bit more. The beans were pretty good pulled on espresso at home though. I loved their cups, bag designs, and shirts! I work at a specialty coffee shop and this place was recommended as the best coffee in town, but the search will continue. read more

Oh my gosh I had the BEST hot bevvy here the other day! It wasn't coffee...I believe it was called the Slow Burn and it had chocolate, ashwaghanda, reishi mushroom, and other unusual bits of loveliness in it. It was absolutely delicious! My husband got a boring old Americano made with their Big Joy blend. We also purchased a bag of whole beans in the Guatemala Aguacatones roast. At $25 a bag, it won't be our everyday go-to, but as a special treat for pour-over java on the weekend, it will be perfect. The atmosphere is airy, light and has the Bellingham vibe down perfect. We will definitely be back when we want to spoil ourselves with caffeinated goodness! We also had a biscuit sandwich with chicken sausage, egg, Garlic, aïoli, cheese, and sunflower seed gremolata, sitting atop a homemade biscuit. It was absolutely fabulous, the perfect blend of flavors. read more

Camber is such a treat. I make an effort to stop in everytime I'm in, passing through, or even in the proximity of Bellingham. The last two times I've been have been during Covid - times, and Camber has a covered outdoor space, handles masking and distancing beautifully, and still produces a gorgeous cup of coffee. Americanos are delicious, cappuccinos are made well with a creamy foam and wonderful proportions, and on my last stop in I tried their speciality drink On a Passing Cloud (Oatmilk, cinnamon, orange, a hint of maple I believe). It was beautifully crafted, shaken to be served cold, just....divine. Their pastries are delectable (the cookies on particular just...melt in your mouth in the best way!). Savory breakfast eats are yummy, and they even offer wines in the afternoon/evening. It's truly a pleasurable spot. Highly recommend you stop in, and do realize - the prices feel a little high for Bellingham, but boy oh boy it is - Worth. it. read more

Camber Coffee - On a Passing Cloud, cold. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

On the way back to Seattle from Blaine we decided to make a stop in Bellingham for some breakfast; it was an early start up north for a Nexus interview. We found parking nearby and chose Camber for our meal. Upon entering we chose our table and were promptly greeted by a server. Our food service was a bit slow; our server came by 3x saying it was on its way out to us. When the food was finally delivered it was a tasty meal. A-OK in my book... read more

Camber was a lovely shop. I spent my 30th birthday weekend in Bellingham from Chicago and made sure to check out Camber since I'd seen it had been called the best coffee in Bellingham on a ton of lists. The coffee was beyond exceptional and I wish I had more time to try more menu items. I was meh on the toast I got, but my friends loved their food (breakfast sandwich and avocado toast). read more

Camber is a coffee shop like no other in town - which makes it extra special and extra cool. It has a big city vibe, and is a hugely welcome addition to downtown Bham. The atmosphere is light and airy, and the staff are super friendly and helpful. You can sit down at a table, or order at the counter - which is usually what I do because I'm getting my coffee to go on my way to a meeting or something. But a couple of times I've stayed for a meal, and the food has been absolutely delicious! Most recently I ordered the baked eggs, which were heaven in a baking dish. I had them alongside my new signature Camber drink: the vanilla latte with house made oat milk. It adds a bit of cost to the coffee, but if you do better without dairy it's worth the extra fundage for this thick, creamy, delicious alternative to milk. Their prices are a bit high for Bham, more in line with Seattle prices. But I get it, we aren't little old Bellingham anymore. We're playing with the big boys now. But still, prepare for a little sticker shock if you haven't been yet. Looking forward to trying out their happy hour soon! read more

Camber Coffee - Japanese woods - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

Camber is a lovely coffee spot in the heart of Bellingham downtown. It is the coffee shop of my dreams, a bright, beautiful corner space, with high ceilings and sleek simple tables and chairs. The dark wood accents contrasts with the white marble tabletops, and pops of bright colour are brought by the flowers placed on each table. Along the long room is black leather banquette it's a dream, really. Not only do they serve coffee, but they also have all day food! Also beer and wine. Basically, they are the whole package! The team behind Camber is well-versed in coffee, and it shows in the quality of their beans. The latte is perfect, the balance of the milk and espresso is right on. I haven't tried any of their food, but their olive oil cake has been calling my name and I'll be sure to try it next time. They also have a fondue which I have seen many enjoying and who can say no to cheese? read more

I am a little surprised I haven't reviewed Camber already. My sister and her family live nearby, and I go at least two-three times whenever I'm in town (yesterday and today included). The coffee is always great. I mostly go for straight espresso or for pour overs, and they are top notch for both. They also do great cortadoes (is there an "e" when cortado is plural?) and their seasonal concoctions are always enticing. I haven't eaten here many times, but the food has been good and the atmosphere is pleasant. The staff is always very friendly. If you brew at home, buy some beans here. I order beans from them occasionally and always buy some when I get the chance to visit. It is not hyperbole to say they are one of the best roasters in the country. (I spend an embarrassing amount of time and energy--and yes, money--on coffee and feel pretty qualified to make that statement.) read more

I love Camber!! It's one of my favorite places to grab a coffee, sit and read, get some work done, or catch up with a friend. One big qualm: for my fellow non-dairy, non-gluten / Celiac folks -- their oat milk brand IS NOT gluten free and it's the only non-dairy milk they offer....so you're sort of out of luck when it comes to safely ordering any milk-based drink. I wish they'd offer at least one other option (soy, almond, etc.), use a gluten free oat milk brand, or at least mark on their menu that the oat milk brand they offer (Minor Figures) isn't gluten free so folks don't get sick and wonder what they ate/drank to cause it. read more

If you have not tried Camber yet, you should! Bellingham has gotten a number of new cafes and bakeries recently, but Camber is not just another new cafe. Their ambience is something you do not find anywhere else in Bellingham. When you step in, you feel as if you're in a stylish cafe in a major metropolitan city like New York City. It's specious, airy, and bright. Everything you experience here is tastefully designed without even a hint of pretentiousness, from the decor to the ceramics that they use to serve coffee. Don't get me wrong. It's not just the ambience but their coffee is also great. Although I have not tried them yet, they also serve food and alcohol. You can either go to the counter to get your drink or sit at a table for full service. It's so special that we can enjoy great food and drinks in this beautiful cafe without leaving Bellingham! I can't wait to come back! ****************************** If you found something useful in my review, please hit "useful" so that I can improve my reviews. If you love food and traveling, follow me!

Camber is the upper crust hipster sister across the street from a religious younger sister, Woods. When Camber moved into the Holly street building, I came with objective feelings and have subjective opinions. I love coffee, and I love good music and relaxed vibes. The style in Camber feels like the flipped Brooklyn neighborhood or a Seattle coffee bar. They don't allow computers in the dining area (+1 point from me) and ask those on computers to go sit at the bar, which has an awesome view of the street with large windows. Great for writers, or people watchers, like myself. I come here for things I can't find at The Black Drop, my all time favorite coffee shop in Bellingham. Things like, "Golden Milk Lattes" which are wonderful anti-inflammatory tumeric-laden tea with a milk froth. Matcha lattes. Fancy coffees when I'm trying to impress the people I work with. It will set you back, I wouldn't frequent due to the cost- $4.50 is a small size of a latte, and then you feel compelled to tip so therefore your tea latte is now basically the cost of a cheap breakfast somewhere. Happy hour is also a pleasure, but it seems they are reducing their hours and closing at 4pm every day - so not branding themselves for cocktail hour. I recommend this place for upscale business meetings, impressing donors (for those non profit folks out there) or simply treating yourself and people watching on a Monday when the office feels too dreary to be in. read more

Camber Coffee - Golden Milk Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

Since my first review on 8/10/2017, I'm adding updates. Still nice interior, fresh flower on each table. They now serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner at this place. I didn't eat, but ordered "Old Gregg" which is "House-made Irish Cream with rum extract and heavy cream, poured over chocolate sauce and Big Joy espresso." ($6) This was sooooo good! Only sad thing was that they put too much ice in the glass. Blue Crane (Rooibos & Honeybush) tea used to be $3.00 in 2017 is now $3.50. I still remember this was so fresh and so good. Turmeric Tonic (with Ginger) $3.50 is still the same price. This was too strong for me, though probably it's very healthy. One more thing I noticed at this place was that they were selling coffee making products with Japanese writings on the boxes. I had to ask them the reason they chose to sell these Japanese brands. Their answer was... Japanese are very serious about coffee making. About the year 2000, Japanese products made by Kalita and Hario were imported to the US and dominated the coffee industry. These are still known as the top quality brands in the coffee industry, the measurements are precise and well made. Camber had Hario mini hand grinder and Kalita coffee server and dripper on their shelf. He also mentioned that these Japanese brands make good quality drip kettle with a narrow gooseneck that helps control the amount and speed of hot water to pour. Learned something new every day. 友達とお茶に立ち寄りました。とってもお洒落、内装も素敵なカフェです。各テーブルに新鮮なお花が。 以前、Blue Crane というルイボスティー（現在＄3.50）を飲みましたが、とっても美味しかったです。今回は、Old Greggという、ラム入りのアイリッシュクリームコーヒー（$6）。とっても美味しくて感動しましたが、氷が多くて、ちょっと残念。 この度お店で気付いたのは、日本語の書かれている箱に入ったコーヒーを作るグッズが売られていること。Kalita のドリッパーにサーバーと、 Hario のミニハンドグラインダーです。 どうして日本のブランドを売っているのかお店の人に尋ねてみました。 お店の人によると、西暦2000年ごろ、日本のこれらのブランドの製品がアメリカに輸入され、コーヒー業界で有名になり、今でも、業界内のトップブランドとして知られているのだそうです。日本はコーヒーを美味しく入れるのにとてもうるさく、良い製品を作るのだとか。 この店では、これらのブランドのグースネックの非常に細い注ぎ口のケトルも有名で、細い注ぎ口は、お湯の注ぎ方をコントロースするのにすぐれているのだそうです。 色々なことを教えていただいて、感謝でした。 read more

Stopped in for some breakfast on a quiet Monday morning. Got the cappuccino with oat milk which was excellent! Wife got the drop coffee and lemon wedge to start and said the lemon wedge may have been the best she's ever had. I ordered the Röste w/ bacon jam and my wife just got a side of eggs. Holy cow this meal was unique and really good! So happy I got it and had a chance to try something new. Atmosphere is great, server was knowledgeable and kind, really couldn't ask for more.

PROS: So picturesque, kind service, generous food portions which make up for the pricey dishes, meal is delightful, liked how it was a clean and spacious Cafe. Overall, loove the place and will definitely go back! From first experience: Waiter kept forgetting our order, had to remind her about our drinks that we were waiting for (it was the first thing we ordered and received them after getting our food). However the waiter was very generous and gave my drink for free. CONS: long wait to and receive order (which is the reason for the 4 stars) read more

Pros: their espresso is great and their decor is stunning. There's usually an interesting rotating espresso drink for the adventurous which I'm super into. They have a nice location downtown too--very central. Cons: the only tables open to people with laptops are too small to work with a friend while also having space to take artistic photos of all your food and drinks (let's be real, I'm not the only one who does this!). Also a little on the expensive side for what it is but I think you're mostly paying for the hip atmosphere. read more

A really beautiful, open, brightly lit space with modern finishings that's fairly minimalist. The coffee and teas here are great. I had already demolished a coffee beforehand but quite enjoyed the roobios here which wasn't overly fruity, here more earthy. And there seemed to be free refills. They also have oatly, which is a delicious cow milk substitute that goes well in tea or coffee or a more fancy latte or cappuccino. I shared the sweet potato chevre toast. The toast was a thick slab of delicious bread, perfectly crusty, so lovely with the luscious spread on top and the sweet potato was just nicely offset by the creamy chevre, then topped with a few thin slices of radish for some crunch. The rosti here with bacon jam and fried eggs was quite good though my rosti was a little overly browned -- blackened, really. If it weren't for that it'd be just perfect. They have a special right now where if you buy a $25 giftcard, you get a free drink, and you can in fact apply that giftcard to your meal itself, which is quite nice. This would really be the ideal neighborhood coffee shop. If only I lived closer! read more

Camber not only has great tasting coffee (and pretty cool apparel), but they also take customer and employee safety during these unprecedented times seriously. I felt they did a great job taking orders, sanitizing, and serving coffee. - I like how they limit customers to two groups at a time inside the shop - I like that they lid the coffee before handing it to customer - I like that you can't sit inside the coffee shop I will be coming back here and would recommend to anyone looking for a COVID friendly coffee shop. read more
