Shirlee Bird Cafe - Bellingham

This is our favorite coffee place. Order at the counter and then take it inside the building. Lots of tasty options for breakfast pastries and lunch.

The best pastries this side of that side! The grilled sandwiches are on point. Service is phenomenal! Shirlee Bird is the best!

Amazing pastries and coffee at the heart of Fairhaven!

Omg. Amazing. Love Shirley! Love the coffee. And the food. And the vibe. All of it. The Chai tea latte was far and away better than all others I’ve had in Washington. This is the place.

Located just as you walk into the Sycamore Square Building on 12th and Harris, you'll find the best pastries you've ever had in your entire life. Guaranteed Shirlee gets up at 4am each morning to prepare them just for you. I can't say enough about the apricot Nutella pinwheel and her Croissant breakfast Sando. The flavors, the portion, and the flakiness of that croissant will blow you away. Grab yourself a spot out front on the sidewalk for some of the best people watching, or go inside to the gorgeous 3 story indoor plaza and it's incredible light and woodwork. I visited Shirlee several mornings in July for that Americano and her smile. Her energy will kick-start your day, that croissant will satisfy your morning hunger pang, and that pastry… well, it will put a skip in your step! Highly recommend you stop here!
