Avenue Bread & Deli - James St

The rosemary English muffins are second to none. So yummy. We came for breakfast twice while we were in Bellingham on vacation.

Had an awesome lunch here! Showed up around 1:30 and it was bustling but there's plenty of room inside so it wasn't hard to find a seat. They have so many sandwiches and delicious-looking baked goods to choose from, including a pretty decent selection for vegetarians and some for vegans! Also a full coffee/tea menu, but the drink menu is only on a small paper at the register and not on the large chalkboards, so I didn't realize they had it until I was placing my order. But the worker was very patient and helpful while I was deciding on a drink.I got a veggie grinder, a pumpkin cookie, and an iced coconut milk latte and it was all amazing. The grinder was the perfect veggie sandwich, it's vegan but I can't imagine anyone feeling like anything is missing. Delicious blend of roasted and fresh veggies, especially those caramelized onions! Pumpkin cookie was soft, more like a cake than a cookie. Very fresh and tender not overly sugary, and they used the perfect amount of cream cheese frosting. Very smooth latte. I'm glad I stopped by!

Nice little breakfast spot! Counter service with plenty of tables! Lovely seasonable items on the menu! Glad we went!

We ordered latte, Florentine eggs Benny and egginue veg sandwich. The hollandaise sauce was a bit too savory and so that spoilt the entire experience of Eggs Benny. But rosemary english muffin was just fab and a must try for anyone in the town. My next stop to this place will be for bread and trying out their soup.

Stopped in for lunch and was able to score a day old loaf this time yay! There was not a line to order so we got our order in right away and found a seat and then a whole lot of people started to come in. It was a longer wait than normal for the food but with how much the phone was ringing and the stream of people thats pretty good. Got a basic meaty and turkey cranberry sandwich.Basic meaty everything was cooked to perfection, perfect golden brown on the hash browns and toast withheld eggs scramble just right.The turkey cranberry was great wish it had a bit more cranberry.Keep up the great work!

On the way to hike the Hertz Trail, we ordered sandwiches from Avenue Bread. Their online order system was easy to use. Once we placed our order, it only took 15 minutes to get it despite a line inside.My cranberry turkey sandwich tasted fresh and my wife loved her BLT. Our four-year-old daughter enjoyed her basic turkey sandwich. They came with a bag of chips too!

Solid sandwich spot not too far off the interstate.We stopped on our way back from snowboarding on a Sunday for lunch. Place was pretty busy and it was a challenge to find a parking spot. Order at the counter and they bring it out to you.My son went with the Turkey Pesto ($14) and I went with the Gourmet Turkey ($14). Both came with kettle chips and pickle spear. They were good servings....but the sandwiches were a little on the dry/bland end. Would be good to have some spicy mayo or mustard options along with spicy turkey options (e.g. blackened). Very friendly and prompt service. We would stop again.

They have lots of great locations and I like being able to buy their bread at supermarkets in the area. My first sandwich from them was a tasty Italian sub - kinda spendy at $14!

I love Avenue Bread! Highly recommend to anyone looking for delicious quick food and a nice place to sit and eat! Everyone is super friendly and helpful, I will be back!

I have lived in Bellingham for six years and had not visited Avenue bread before today. I decided to stop by and have a breakfast sandwich. I ordered the avocado egg bacon Swiss cheese sandwich on sourdough bread to go. When they gave me the sandwich, (was not even in a bag)- tacky!, it was just half a sandwich for $7. I said wait a minute I think there's another half missing somewhere and they said no that's all you get. Unless it is otherwise specified on the menu one would assume you would get a full size sandwich , 2 pcs of bread, not half a sandwich made with one piece of bread. Unbelievably overpriced sandwich with nothing else. Yes, the sandwich was good, but not a value whatsoever. I will not be back here again because everything is way over the top expensive.
