Brewed Awakening — Restaurant in Bellingham

Meh. So-so espresso, slow service. We used to love this place and would stop frequently. But, it's been a couple of years and I'm not sure if they have new personnel or what. We were in a rush, driving by, thought it'd be a quick visit as there was no line. It's changed. Service was very slow. One walk-up customer was in front of us. Was there a long time, so we figured it was a complicated order. Nope, she got one drink. Our turn. 2 quad shot mochas. Took well over 5 minutes, and we were now the only ones there. The lady making our mochas would keep turning around to talk with the other lady who was in there. It was almost weird how she would put something in one drink and then stop like she was taking a break, to turn around and talk about personal stuff to the other lady. Then after a half minute, add something else to our cup, then stop making our order, and turn around again. And then when I thought they were done. she stirred and stirred the drinks until she finished her conversation with her coworker and our ice was all but melted. My wife jokingly asked me if I could ask them to let her in so she could finish our drinks. Finally got our drinks, and were even more disappointed. Our four shot mochas tasted more like weak drip coffee. We didn't even finish our drinks. Pretty bummed. I hope it was just an off...

been visiting this business for a few months and recently started exploring the big menu of food as well as getting my drink. my drink was often made incorrectly and not tasting good so i started getting my coffee elsewhere and just ordering food at this location. everytime i pull up to order food in the morning i am given a lot of attitude by specific baristas. (mainly one) my friend and i always tip really well (because we are baristas as well) and we are always very respectful but it’s getting to the point we want to choose a new stand for breakfast now too. this is my first time feeling the need to write a review and i want to keep supporting this business but i can’t deal with the negative attitudes...

My favorite coffee stand in Bellingham. You know it's good when the line is always long. Staff is awesome and knows all the locals and their orders. They serve both Oregon chai and Big train vanilla FYI. Their coffee tastes good and they have a large variety of options. Coffee is such a subjective taste and there are plenty of coffee snobs around so I will say I like it. It's good and one of my preferred places.

They have plenty of food options available. Their biscuits and gravy are served on Wednesday and Sunday and it's very good.

They are open early and also late. My wife and I often make this place a little date stop on the weekends and go there during the week separately.

They are...
