Lorikeet - Bellingham

Very nice ambiente, excellent service, very friendly staff. eating is well prepared, delicious and the cocktails are diverse. a must in this city

Finally got down to trying Lorikeet after going by it a million times. Now I am wondering what took me so long. The place has a bit of a different vibe than bars around it. Let 's say it is a bit more tropical than other Bham bars. The have mostly tapas style small plates. The ceviche was excellent as were the prawns. They have various tacos and bowls also, but where they really stand out is their tropical style cocktails. Daiquiris, Margaritas, Rum-Rum Rickey and some truly wild Fun Mug drinks. I had the Dangler which is two rums, absinthe and a bunch of other stuff that came in an angler fish mug.....an angler fish mug with an ice cube with a red light in it! Sounds sort of kitschy but the presentation was entertaining...and it packs quite a punch. Maybe that is why I thought the glowing cube was so cool.... The prices are downtown standard. So...if you want a different vibe, take off your PNW flannel, REI gear or whatever, slap on your tropical shirt and head to Lorikeet.

Delicious food/drinks, reasonable prices, excellent happy hour selection, and a really cute outdoor dining area. Their service is typically quite speedy and the employees have always been kind and fun.

One of my favorite places in Bellingham! The pork belly tacos here are so good. Great happy hour and super cute cozy outdoor seating area with heaters.

Had the Cod and the Pork Tacos!Along with a spectrum of delicious drinks.Easy place to chill for a few hours.Don't miss the guacamole with a little kick!
