Makeworth Coffee Roasters

This review is going to be a bit lengthy as it will include the cafe as well as the Makeworth coffee that is roasted and brewed on-site, both of which are deserving of the 5-star rating.
The cafe is one of Bellingham’s “must visit” locations. It is one of those places that bridges the gap between cafe and social club where anyone is welcome. The menu of both food and drink will have something for everyone. But may I recommend the autumn vanilla latte for first-timers, I promise you won’t be disappointed. Lastly, I must make mention of the staff. Rarely do I find a spot where everyone is nice, warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. They literally have a “dream-team” and make this establishment the truly incredible place that it is.
And now the coffee: usually when a cafe decides to venture into roasting its own coffees there is that learning-curve time where they get used to the equipment and the process. A good coffee to come out of that “breaking in” time is a rarity. But having purchased and tried every bean they offer, the coffees have been nothing short of exquisite from day 1!! I’m not sure what sort of dark secret incantations are infused into their coffees, but I am amazed. Two favorites would have to be the Ethiopian and the anaerobic process Colombian.

Passing through the area. Seems like the best cafe in the area, and it is. Good espressos with a very unique Mexican batch. Quick friendly service, huge space & windows, 2 floors, music isn’t overbearing, plenty of outlets. Sit here uninterrupted for as long as you’d like 🤙🏼

One of the most beautiful coffee shops I’ve been to! Very aesthetic. Even the cups are creative. Got the lavender latte with oat milk and it was very creamy and delicious and not overly sweet. Would come back to try something else from their menu.

Really cute place! Bright and open – tables were not too close together so you could study if you wanted or have a somewhat private conversation with your table. The breakfast sandwich and the sugar waffle were absolutely amazing. The coffee, on the other hand, was completely foul. I probably should have asked them to remake it but didn't feel like it would be any better so I actually dumped it out in the bathroom sink on my way out 😳😳 I would definitely go back but maybe just order tea next time!

Lovely space and people tending to it. My GF and I were very appreciative of how attentive the staff were about allergens and checking ingredients, we both know it's a pain sometimes. The space itself is laid out gorgeously and is very open and bright. The decor is pretty minimalistic yet still incredibly tasteful. The food was really good and perfectly priced in our opinion! The coffee was a rich profile and had a great taste. We hope to come back again on our forays up north because we love the mission of bring people together and pursuing creativity at Makeworth.

Tldr: Highly recommend for food, coffee, and space!

Makeworth is one of my favorite places to bring my laptop and work while enjoying delicious drinks and food. The space is bright with high ceilings and modern finishes. IT’s conveniently located a few blocks from my office (lucky me ☺️). The staff and ownership are always cheerful and professional. I’ve also been to a few private events and the space lends itself well to holiday parties, private shows etc…

If you are new to town, it’s a great scene and I’ve met many new friends while there. I would recommend Makeworth to anyone without hesitation!

I never write reviews, but the iced latte I got here was literally the best I’ve ever had. The staff was super friendly and fast, the inside was open and bright, seating was plentiful, and the breakfast food (we tried tacos, a sandwich, and coffee cake) was literally outstanding, especially for coffee shop food. I frankly cannot recommend this place enough.

The most excellent honey lavender latte, served once to go and another time to stay. Both delicious and staff are engaging and accurate with order. The venue is bright and modern and comfortable inside and out. My new favorite coffee shop in B-town.

Super cute, clean, bright, and pretty quiet coffee shop! Got a london fog and a turkey and gouda croissant! SO GOOD! Definitely coming back.

This is my coffee spot of choice in Bellingham. It’s a whole vibe - a cool vibe.🤙🏽The space is filled with natural light, plants, and plenty of seats to nestle into for a study sesh or a visit. The staff are welcoming and professional, but still super chill. They roast their coffee here, so you can pick up some small batch beans. The offerings are delish. Every coffee has that ‘baristas are coffee artists feel’ - my favorite drink: dirty turmeric chai with oat milk. 🤌🏼☕️! They also have beer and cider and the best avo toast ever! (I get the GF version and it’s still fantastic)
