Dog-friendly
Great places to bring a pup.
Awesome selection of beer and food — tons of vegetarian options, too! The outdoor areas are dog-friendly, and it’s just around the corner. Couldn’t beat it!

Food scene
Some of the best vegan food available. We took the in-laws when they visited — as meat lovers, they were skeptical at first, but they absolutely loved it, and we do too! Take note the food truck does move around, so be sure to check their website for their current schedule.

When we were first deciding to move to Bellingham, we stumbled upon this place. We were already sold, but this just sealed the deal. If you like oysters and shellfish, do not miss it. Nothing is better than eating freshly shucked oysters by the bay. They have a great selection of local beer and wine too. This place can get quite crowded on summer weekends. It’s worth it, but if you can go off peak, it’s better. Also, it is super dog-friendly.

Absolutely beautiful park with a lake and a series of waterfalls. It’s a great place to walk or run, and it’s easy if you are traveling with pets or kids. Follow some of the smaller trails off the main ones to find some beautiful waterside spots.

Beautiful waterfront park with lovely views of the bay and marina. It’s a great place to walk with dogs or kids, and if you like fresh fishy keep an eye out — some of the local fishers sell their catch directly from their boats on weekends (look for signs as you walk around).
