Flatstick Pub - Bellingham — Restaurant in Bellingham

This was my first experience at Flatstick Pub. I've driven past the Seattle location many times and been intrigued by the concept. I was excited to find a location closer to home. Flatstick Pub has 2 rules: Drink Local and Have Fun. They source their adult beverage selection from local breweries - maintaining community as a pillar of their business model. There is a condensed 18 hole course that can be played an unlimited number of times for $10 per person. There are also other games set up as well. One is similar to beer pong, and another is called Duffleboard, a game proprietary to Flatstick that crosses shuffleboard and golf. There were also board games available to play. There is a bar, restaurant, and plenty of swag for purchase. My husband and I brought home a T-shirt in a pint glass for $15. This is a family friendly, noisy, environment - I personally would say for ages 8 and up, but all ages are welcome. There are golf putters for kids and adults alike. We ordered a Bogey Pizza $19 - sausage, pepperoni, olives, cheese, red sauce. It is SUPER thin and tasted good. It fed 2 adults. The mini-golf portion of the building is also pint- sized. There was a bachellorette party, a family of 4 adults, a party of 2 friends, a dad and tween daughter, my husband and I on the course at once. It was manageable. There is free, onsite parking. The two West windows are roll up doors, giving the space plenty of ventilation. There's a nice outdoor Patio space as well for those beautiful summer days and nights.

We had a great time. Left happy....

Experience once there was pretty great. Games were completely disheveled. What's the point.

Issue was when I called to say they're is no menu on the website. He was nice for the first 10s but then got crabby bc he had customers. I offered for him to call me back and he said I could text him and he'll send me one... "that's the best I can do, I have customers." This was said in a frustrated way. It's not my fault.

I asked if he wants it on his website bc I'd like to be able to go there to find it. He said yes but he has customers staring at him.

I asked if I should text this number and he said yes and hung up.

Just not kind. Could have said, "Oh really?! Let me look into that. Right now I have a line of customers but I'll call or text you after." He obviously has my number. That's just... Friendly...

We had my son's graduation party here. The atmosphere was perfect. We had half of the venue and plenty of space for our entire party to be comfortable and have fun. The games were super fun. The food was really good. The service was excellent. I do wish there were cocktail options outside of tap/cans.

Booking the party was very easy and done all via email. The team called ahead of the party to confirm details. The cost of the rental and food plus gratuity felt like a really great value. I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a stress free party/event.

We will definitely be back! Our friends and family were super impressed and excited to come back again soon....
