Restaurants near Bay View State Park

Food service a little slower than normal although well worth the wait. They were busy but not at capacity. Several open tables.

Excellent Service, delicious food, great atmosphere… a favorite special occasion restaurant.

Coming from metro Phoenix which has great food, we have been pleasantly surprised by the many wonderful restaurants in Bellingham. But Carnal is a cut above. Big city vibe, and creative menu. A tad on the pricey side, but well worth it.

Estelle’s is simply great. The food is creative and never fails to impress. The cocktails are simply brilliant. The staff at Estelle’s are friendly, knowledgeable and work as a great team. The size, informality and sense of casual elegance is very appealing. Estelle’s has become our favorite restaurant to take friends to who visit us from out of town and is always a wonderful treat for us too. Nadine, who has been our server the last few times we’ve been there, is outstanding. She a charming and gracious woman who truly enhances the experience of dining. Not to mention her depth of knowledge and experience. Gray, at the bar, is an performer as well as a talented mixologist. The menu at Estelle’s is small, but each dish is so well done and distinctive it is very hard to have a favorite! A new-to-us dish that wowed us on our most recent visit was the ‘chicken liver mousse coastal huckleberry & chive with sunflower sourdough’ omg! We’ll be back soon again and highly recommend it.

Staff was helpful and friendly. Waiter constantly checked in and made sure we had everything we needed. Front counter staff was helpful with picking out tea cup, etc. Food was AMAZING! Tea was awesome (and authentic.) The fresh scones were the best! Environment was calm and made it easy to have a great conversation with my daughter. Such a great experience! Thank you.
