Great handcrafted pizzas, and an awesome selection of brews. This was our first time visiting and the atmosphere was really nice, kind restaurant workers, outdoor covered and heated seating, and it's located close to the water. Great pizza place! read more

I love this place. It's about a block from my house, which is dangerous for my finances, it's so tempting to go all the time! The selection of beer and cider here is huge. It's fun just to look through all the different kinds! They have fridges with bottles and cans, and beer on tap too. They also have a nice wine and mead section in the back. They cater to all budgets, you can get anything from a $1.50 can to an upscale bottle. They always have a food truck here. So far I've only ordered the fries topped with chicken tenders, ranch and cheese. Yes it is as delicious and decadent as it sounds! Every night of the week this place is crowded, I like it though, it puts out a fun, welcoming vibe. It is tough to sit in the front though, but you can usually stand at the bars by the fridges, or sit in the back room. read more

For a beer lover, must go place. They carry so many different brands of beer from all over the world. Someone was looking for a beer from Levanworth, and he was thrilled to find it in this store. I especially I like their backroom, it's cozy and nice atmosphere. ビール好きの人にはたまらないお店。世界中からの色々なビールがあり、いつも沢山の人が食事をしながらビールを飲んでいます。私は奥の部屋の雰囲気がとっても好きです。 read more

Good times! Lots of beer and reasonable pizza. Outdoor seating is functional and fun.

Ordered a pepperoni Pizza from here for pick up. Pizza was great and service was awesome. Have eaten in here Asli and the experience was the same read more

A plethora of good beer choices both canned and on a rotating draft pour choices. Plenty of choices for the concerning palate. What really surprises me is the great pizza they make! It goes well with a pint of beer. read more

I want to update my review... the food here is waaaaay better than it used to be. Still a great selection of beers and other things... but the food is now worth eating and I couldn't be happier. I haven't tried everything yet, but what I have tried makes me want to go back and do so. read more

Elizabeth Station - Tacos and yummy beer. DO IT - Beer Bar Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

Elizabeth Station stands alone. Hands down. How? To start, it's in a category all of it's own. Wall to wall selection of beers, wines, ciders, beverages big and small- popular cult classics to obscure "war starting" small batch companies. (I start the war personally with anyone who runs off with my Snowdrift Cider. Try me. I dare you.) The Station hosts huge beer nights, seasonal tastings, special release casks and even singing at times. There are huge tables for eating from their rad cereal bar, their nachos, chips or making new friends while sipping on a brew! Wine drinkers or small glass starters beware- they don't care your if your ounce-age is smaller than a regular glass...you only get three drinks. And they'll split a bottle into multiple drinks if it's too big. SO DRINK OFF TAP AND TAKE HOME THE FRIDGE GOODIES WITH YA, MATE! On that note, they have 14+ taps and specials always rotating. They're happy to let you taste and try until something hits you. Definitely high on the service element too- they'll help you search, google or rummage through their stock to find your perfect bev. With the addition of their new Cidre room (cider and wine ON TAP TOO), there is a little more space and for sure better gluten free drink options. Parking can be tough, so aim to get there a couple minutes early. And you'll meet me personally if you haunt E Station in October. I'm a massive fan of their pumpkin beers. read more

Been meaning to hit the Elizabeth Station for a while. Was happy we finally had a chance to do so! We arrived on a Friday evening around 5 PM and it was pretty packed. The beer selection on tap is excellent, and they had wine, which made the wife happy! We were underwhelmed by the food. The descriptions on the menu just didn't match what actually made it to table. The Plants Platter ($10) had some dried (fried) kale, broccoli and sweet potato spirals. The description - 'roasted, fried & fresh seasonal vegetables served with an herbed cashew cream.' Best part of that was the herbed cashew cream. We ordered the sweet potato spirals separately, so it would have been nice to know that the primary item being served on the Plants Platter was something we already ordered! The pork larb lettuce cups tasted great, with a mix of peanuts, cucumbers, basil and mint. But they probably used 1 Butter lettuce leaf for all three cups?!? Ended up using a fork, as the 1/3 of a lettuce leaf proved to be inadequate as a serving vessel. The beer coolers are impressive, as were the cider and wine options. And the service was great; people were friendly and attentive. They do offer crowlers (32 oz cans of beer they can right in front of you), but they charge $2 for the can. I don't think I've ever gotten a crowler of canned beer before in which they wanted to charge for the can. Why not just bake that into the price? Overall, I'd go back for the beer cooler selection alone. But I would probably just order from a local food truck if one is parked nearby. read more

1,000 beers and 100 ciders, bottled and canned! They organize it by state so you can find what you'd like quicker and know how local it is. I am not a beer fan but I love hard cider. It was really exciting to find so many single cans of cider to take home and try- it eliminates the chance of buying a 6 pack only to realize you don't like it much! In addition to single cans, they also sell 22 oz bottles and 6 packs, depending on the drink. I was happy to find single cans of my favorite cider here that I can't find elsewhere in Bellingham! They also have beers and ciders on tap if you'd like to stay a while. They sell growlers in two sizes if you fall in love with your drink and want to take some home. There is also a huge variety of snacks! I was blown away by it all. read more

These guys have had such a great reputation for so long that it feels like I have been meaning to get here for probably longer than they have actually been open. It's surprising to see a few great beers here that we really don't even get in Seattle--beers that probably have to come through Seattle on the truck before they land on these Bellingham shelves. They're clearly running a first-class operation, so it's easy to see why they'd land here. You park in the lot and you think you're heading in to the flower shop. Those are the first windows you see on your way to the door. ES is tucked in on the long side of the building, with more space inside than they have maybe even finished planning yet. You walk through a small group of picnic tables, then you see a long wall of coolers facing a deep, wide bar. The taplist is on a big easel out in room where you can see it, rather than craning your neck to look up at the wall. Brewery, style, ABV, all that info is right there. It's a good lineup, with nice selections and nice variety across 16 (I think) taps. The coolers are organized more geographically than stylistically--all the California beers, all the Oregon beers, and so on, but even that system may not be universally applied to every single shelf (which is fine; they're almost all interesting beers). There's a wine and cider room in back, and long rows of candy in between everything. You can cover a lot of cravings here. The whole place has kind of a faux-Tuscan '80s feel to it, with arched doorways and tan sponge-painted walls. You don't even really notice unless you look; the lighting is nice, ceilings are high, and nothing is ever cramped. They're really doing well with all the space they have in here. All the photos I've seen of it make it look chopped up and odd, but when you walk in, it feels welcoming and you could easily hang out for hours. We all walked out with multiple interesting bottles, and we each had a decent beer from the taps too. Can't wait to come back. read more

A true Bellingham treasure and gem. I haven't been back here in over a decade and it was such a trip down memory lane. Great people always accompany this joint. Amazing selection of bottle and draft beer. Out door patio area and even a nice little food menu. This a must stop for any hole in the wall beer lover or anyone looking for an alternative to a coffee joint to hang out and enjoy some good stuff! read more

Elizabeth Station is a cool place, it's been on my list for a while. I met my sister her for a late summer beer. The place was almost deserted around 5 on a Saturday. There are tons of choices at Elizabeth Station, I had a hard time choosing. I prefer a light beer and thought I had chosen a beer that would work for me, but it just didn't. It had a really weird aftertaste that I just couldn't shake. I returned to the bar and asked if they could recommend a light beer for me. They were kind and patient and provided me a much better beer. We ordered some nachos. They came quickly and were surprisingly good. The table we share was a long table of slab wood, it was beautiful and nicely done. I was glad to see more folks show up toward the end of our visit. Elizabeth Station has large selection of retail beer as well, the cases are lined with coolers and many many kinds of beer. They also have lots of snacks and treats to choose from. Give Elizabeth Station a try if you like variety and want to try some different beers. read more

The "Liz" was my go-to before and during the pandemic. It is walking distance from my house. Their stock of beverages is diverse. They have kombucha, beer, wine and ciders, lots of munchies, and occasionally cooked food from their kitchen. Too bad the food truck went away, we hope it comes back again once things settle down again. During the pandemic, we could order and pick up, or sit outside when the weather wasn't too brisk. Looking forward to being able to sit inside again. read more

Last night was my first visit to Elizabeth Station, what a great place, I really enjoyed it, they had a great selection of beer on tap, as well as a huge selection of beer, ciders and other drinks bottled in the cooler. Certainly the best selection of beer in Bellingham. One nice service they offer, if you purchase one of the larger bottled beers or ciders from the cooler, they pour it into a glass, then they cap what is left with a stopper so that it doesn't go flat while you drink the first glass. I will certainly be back, perhaps next time I will try one of their sandwiches. read more

Who would've thought that this mini-mart-turned-beer-store would have such good food? Their pizza is, in my opinion, one of the best in town. I've also tried their sliders and they were delish! But the pizza...soooo good. I love sitting on the little patio and watching the world go by. Great location, service, booze, snacks, and food. I always leave Elizabeth Station happy! read more

Hey you, do you like beer? I do too and I really think you should come here. Let's start with the bottle shop. They have bottles, and lots of them. They're arranged by region and brewery which is my preferred sorting as I'm more often searching for a brewery rather than a beer style. Selection is great with nearly 1000 beers and ciders to choose from. Now, their beer selection doesn't have a deep selection of whales or chase beers, bit it'll definitely fill your cellar. Elizabeth Station also has 20 taps with beer and cider. It's a good selection with varied styles and they do taster flights. Great if you want to try different beers, but they are a little pricey. Overall, Elizabeth station is a great place to stop if you're passing through Bellingham. read more

Went here twice in a week just to reaffirm that they have the best pizza in Bellingham. It is definitely the best I found so far. It has a great community feel and a great selection of beverages. read more

Went recently to meet a friend for a beer and conversation. Blonde behind the bar was curt and dismissive. Instantly felt unwelcome. Bad juju. Just cus your overpriced beer is written on a chalkboard it only increases it's perceived value. You can keep it. Never going back. read more

No complaints here. People are there for one reason. The love of beer and cider. Hangout and drink a couple or take home. Large selection, fair prices. Cool atmosphere overall. read more

Elizabeth Station - Blackberry pear cider. And yes it was tasty. Dry and sweet. - Beer Bar Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

This place is past downtown Bellingham if you were heading from I5. The inside is set up as a mix of brewery, liquor store, and a restaurant. Their alcohol selection is quite diverse but unfortunately I do not drink much. Their food selection is much more limited so there is a food truck in the parking lot to fill that void. read more

Awesome asset to our neighborhood! Everybody there is always super friendly and fun to chat with. Hope we all make it through this pandemic and especially Elizabeth station. Become a neighborhood icon read more

Visiting from out of town and got a glowing recommendation from a local to try this place. Low-key, neighborhood vibe. Great place to dog watch from the picnic tables outside and to enjoy amazing pizza and a wide selection of beers and ciders. The pepperoni pizza is excellent, with a very tasty crust. Perfect for two people to share without being overly full. We will come back on our next visit to Bellingham. read more

Great beer. Pizza could use some help. They have a good flavored crust but roll it out way too thin in the middle and way too thick on the ends. You wind up with a ton of dry crust and a super soggy thin middle. read more

I love coming to Elizabeth Station because I never know what I'm going to find. I love ciders and their selection is the biggest I've seen anywhere. It's fun to get single cans of different things to try. Nice seating area outside too. read more

Love the awesome selection of beers. Very reasonably priced. I liked the intermingling of families, dogs, bicyclists. We sat at an outdoor table with a young family enjoying our beverages. I enjoyed ginger tea. read more

The selection here would earn five stars on its own; I love being able to try new things and it's all well-priced, however it's so frustrating as a couple of 30-somethings with no desire to procreate to constantly be forced into proximity of small children. ESPECIALLY when that establishment is essentially a bar. Way too many bars and breweries are "kid friendly" these days, and I really don't feel like trying to enjoy my beer while your irritating children are crying/screaming/running around like wolves. So I recommend hitting this place up, but take your beers to go. read more

Damn. I really wanted to like E.S. Walking distance from home. Convivial atmosphere, but . . . Not enough seating. Table/bench heights not compatible (and poorly finished according to my furniture-maker drinking buddy). None of which would matter if service were attentive and friendly . . . I've been twice and both times the service was AWFUL! My friend and I waited patiently while the bartender had a lengthy conversation with the customer in front of us. As said customer walked away, the bartender turned his back on us and begin rinsing down the overflow tray with nary a word. We moved to the line by the register, thinking we were in the wrong spot. When we reached the head of that line, we were sent back to Mr. Customer Service to order - argh!! On my second visit, we sat in the back room (who wants to stand after a long day on their feet?), only to be told 20 minutes into our pints that the room was reserved and we would need to leave. No signs. No warnings. Just a brusque instruction to vacate. I think I'll do my drinking and drop my dollars elsewhere, thanks. read more

I've been here three times now. I was withholding judgement because so many people love this place, but I can now say I do not like Elizabeth Station. The ordering/payment process is overly complex and verrrrry slow. As much trouble as folks were having getting pints out, I shudder to think what would happen if I had ordered food. You can buy cans and bottles from the coolers to drink there, but they have to be opened and poured by the staff, and there is a $5 minimum on such purchases -- pretty annoying when you are buying a $1.49 cider. The thing I really hate about this place may be a plus for others -- the long community tables. Once I sat at a small table in the kid's room with two friends, and that was fine. The other two times I met friends and we sat at one of the big shared tables in the main room. On both of those occasions our conversation was ruined by boring, long-winded patrons horning in. Seriously, you can't finish a sentence. I know that's not Elizabeth Station's fault, but it goes with the clientele and atmosphere. If you are by yourself and feel like sharing neighborhood gossip with bearded guys in Boundary Bay hoodies, you may have a better time than I did. read more

How have I not done a review of Elizabeth Station yet?! I don't think I can say much but hasn't been set on here already... but I'm just really thankful this place existed in my neighborhood. I love walking down here for a beer for filling up my growler. It's a peaceful spot with an amazing selection of brews. One of my most favorite places to meet up with a buddy for a conversation. They almost always have a good food truck option for some food as well. Go E-Station Gooooo!! read more

The only really good experience I've had is the girl who works at the cash register has been really really nice. Other than her, my experiences there have ranged from "eh" to disappointing. My first experience there was I met a friend for lunch, because I heard the sandwiches were really good. I was NOT impressed. It was very expensive, it was small, and it was dry. I took half of it with me because I had to get back to the office, but I ended up throwing it away. And I don't throw away food. Nearly every time I go in, I have to ask the price of almost anything I'm interested in, because only a few of their items are priced. Also, their prices definitely run on the high side. My most recent experience was when I was looking at a brand new product they'd gotten in. As the price was rather high, I suggested they offer samples, and they said "No way! Those are really good! Definitely worth it." I hemmed and hawed, all the while they were raving on and on about how great the product was, and how I definitely should try it and they were selling out really fast. So I finally gave in and decided to take the chance, despite the high price and having no idea what it would taste like since they refused to provide samples. I ended up hating them, offered to my coworker and she hated them too. (Ultimately I gave them to my dad, and they made him sick all night, fyi.) I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to be "that person" who brought the item back, but it wasn't cheap and I hated to just throw all that money away when I hate the product. Finally I called and explained what happened to the guy on the phone. At the end of my story, I asked what to do, and he said "no returns on food." The end. No solution. I just feel like on every end of the situation, they are unhelpful and unaccommodating, putting the needs of the customer last. In my book, that gets no more than 2 stars. read more

Loved the lemon curd waffles this morning. Yay waffles are back on Saturday and Sunday mornings

A community hub. A consistently well crafted place with wonderful, knowledgeable staff. This is the kind of place one lives in beautiful Bellingham in order to be a patron of; good people, good food, good beer. Their new pizza offering has captured my tastebuds and it will be difficult to not pick up a delicious marinara pie every time we stop in for take-away beers or fresh draft pours. I greatly appreciate all the hard work ES puts into their community presence read more
