This is a YES for me. Wow. I walked by in the evening and it caught my eye, so I made plans to…read morereturn for brunch the next day. They have a really cool menu where just about anything can be made gluten free and/or vegan. Tons of savory options, which I loved. I ordered online and got a California sandwich on gluten free. It was ready in 20 (on a Saturday too- impressive), and ready to go. The staff are awesome. They had such great energy. There were about 4-5 of them, all working on something, and it was nice to see a properly staffed place where each person was contributing without it feeling too stressful/busy. There are a lot of cute touches- free stickers, a dinosaur vending machine, local art. It was a joy to walk in the door and wait for my meal. The waffle was amazing. A tad sweet, which complimented the flavors well. They have really perfected this and I am already hoping to make a trip back soon for more!

The waffles are absolutely massive but well worth it. I was especially fond of the Main Squeeze waffle as it was tangy and didn't feel super heavy. Whether you're in Bellingham as a visitor or a local, this place is worth a stop.

This following paragraph does not change that. I am pretty disappointed when I ordered the BLT advertised as served on house made Focaccia. And honestly the combo makes the $21 price tag worth it. But the BLT was not served on focaccia, instead a standard bread. Yet we received no heads up. Again, it was great but why was there no disclaimer? Definitely would not have ordered it had there been transparency because it doesn't feel worth it. Drinks: standard cocktails but really good. Definitely worth a try. Service: they were pretty packed but everyone that tended to us was really sweet. Ambiance: very standard Bellingham small shop vibe.

They are homemade, oh so fluffy & delicious. I ordered the ABTJ omelette. The highlight was the biscuit. I could have eaten a few more. Light buttery goodness. The table had plenty condiments, including a great jam option. The omelette was hearty, piping hot and filling. Lots of great breakfast options, served as an omelette, skillet or over hashbrowns. A great downtown spot to check out!

Definitely fluffy and the salmon was good! The side of potatoes was pretty good, a little softer than I prefer, but good. The fruit platter was where I draw the line. It was like $8 for two slices of melon and a strawberry. Insane. I have no idea how they justify that and I was super bummed to see I had paid that much for like 20 cents worth of fruit. The staff is friendly, but almost frighteningly so. They all wear skirts down to the floor and no makeup. It feels like they are all in on some secret, but I can't quite figure it out.
