Bellingham, WA 98225
We are located in a national historic building over 130 years old and for over 35 years, the Colophon Cafe has been the true heart of Fairhaven! We strive for creating delicious food while specializing in hearty soups, fresh salads, and tasty artisan sandwiches! Our bakers work hard make all our desserts from scratch along with many other savory bake goods on the menu. Our knowledgeable staff will help guide you through the menu while catering to dietary restrictions or helping you find gluten-free options. Save room for Peanut Butter Pie! We offer a full cocktail menu with rotating taps and an excellent happy hour from 3-6pm Monday thru Friday! Our outdoor patio seating is available seasonally and is located adjacent to the Village Greens which often has live music and hosts a number of events. If it is cold, cozy up on the couch and have a Caffe Umbria espresso or glass of wine by our fireplace with your favorite people. We hope to see you soon and welcome to Bellingham!
