Avenue Bread & Deli - Downtown

I have been here dozens of times since I have lived in Bellingham and the quality has gone wayyyyy down. I will say our coffee were delicious. My boyfriend and I usually get the breakfast burritos or an egg-anue. The breakfast burritos price has gone up and up, while the quality has become more and more inconsistent. We went there this weekend and both our egg sandwiches and breakfast burrito were very bland. The breakfast burrito was 50% hash browns which were cold, almost frozen in the center. It was the final nail in the coffin for us unfortunately.

Way too overpriced, I'm actually surprised they're still open. I payed 7 dollars for the beast breakfast sandwich for it to come out looking like an egg Mc muffin sandwich from McDonald's. Wouldn't recommend honestly. The service was good, good vibes and the place is actually gorgeous with amazing menu boards. Although the tables are so outdated and ruin most of the good vibes. Come here with low expectations.

Clean store, pleasant atmosphere, sharp and efficient service, generous and delicious food, good value and good community involvement. This joint ticks the boxes!My gal had the raspberry roast beef sandwich special, and I had the Cuban grinder. The proteins are treated with respect here, and it shows. Roast beef is tender and delicious, ham is smoky and rich, and the roast pork is juicy and unctuous... Have to mention the fresh, delicious proprietary breads too. Quality veg and sauces, applied evenly and consistently, bring it all together.This is where you go to get a good sammich in Bellingham.They're big sandwiches too, so if you're not both famished one sandwich can easily feed two people, fyi. Totally trying their scratch-made soups next time. And I've got to try that legendary Ruben...Highly recommended!

Lovely inside, tables and food and pastries. Great service. I want to try the soup next time.

Quite decent Breads and Baked Goods....My go to is usually a Blueberry Scone and a Drip Coffee. But today was feeling hungrier than usual and ordered Breakfast...BIG MISTAKE!!!!!!...Sausage overcooked, shriveled and rubbery, Poached Eggs undercooked and 1/2 raw, Hash Browns swimming in oil...Massive Fail on every front, I honestly cannot even remember the last time I was served a meal so bad. I am cringing right now just thinking about it.Stick to the Breads and Baked Stuff and you'll be just fine...

A popular spot that is welcoming and comfortable setting. Excellent selection of healthy food choices and convenient for takeout orders.Will come back for sure when in the area!

We came and got coffee, breakfast sandwiches, and a deli sandwich for lunch later since we were heading for a hike. The staff was friendly and welcoming. I even spilled my drink all over the floor and they were so kind about it. They cleaned it up and gave me a new one on the house. The English muffin for the breakfast sandwich was so light and amazing! Really really good bread. Highly recommend this place for breakfast, lunch, or a delightful snack!

I LOVE Avenue bread. Their breakfast menu is robust and inventive, including a list of breakfast sandwiches featuring local meat, cheese and produce, and with the ability to be served on their delectable rosemary English muffin. They also serve scrambles if you are looking for something bigger and they come with toast if your choosing and perfectly crispy hash browns. Lastly, their sandwiches. Being a bread shop, you'd assume good sandwiches have to be a must, but you will be shocked at just how good these babies are!My absolute favorite is the turkey cranberry, it tastes just as you'd want a thanksgiving leftover sandwich to taste with a cranberry cream cheese, fresh sliced roasted turkey, red onion and cucumbers for texture.Seriously, cannot recommend enough. Also their staff is awesome and quick, the brunette gal who has been working at the downtown location for years is especially great!

BEST. BREAKFAST . SANDWICH . EVER !Let me first say, I've eaten a lot of breakfast sandwiches in my time. It's such a convenient way to eat my breakfast, but can go wrong easily. The way I rank a breakfast sammy is in 3 ways, construction, ingredients used, and overall taste. Here's my review of the Popeye. Construction: 10/10ROSEMARY BREAD!!? What a game changer, you have to try it. Smelled delicious the second it hit the table. It was the perfect texture, not too soft that the sandwich got soggy, but not too hard that it cut the roof of my mouth. It held its structure down to the last bite, and perfectly caught the egg drippies making the perfect last bite. Ingredients Used: 10/10Caramelized Onions, Spinach, Sausage Patty, Avocado, Mustard. Literally no words for the perfect choices made here. Onions were cooked to perfection, the sausage patty made me feel like I was eating a breakfast burger in the best way, perfectly seasoned as well! Avocado, sometimes I get nervous with avocado because I don't like a huge bite of just avocado. Luckily they're hip, and only added a nice even spread of avocado at the bottom, literally perfect. Mustard: What a game changer for a breakfast sandwich! It perfectly paired with the deliciously greasy bits of the sandwich! Overall Taste: 11/10 Literally couldn't have put together a better list of ingredients for this sandwich. I want to try them all. Only thing I can say is, damn that's a good kitchen, and definitely get the rosemary bread!!!

vibe is cozy and nice! food is great and there are plenty of vegetarian options! the staff are very friendly!
