This place is tiny, but they have some amazing music. Genres vary, but it's almost always good. They're famous for their grilled cheese sandwiches. I know that sounds weird, but you'll understand once you've been there!

This place is almost the epitome of Bellingham. They go in to buildings that are about to be torn down and reclaim as much as they can. They also take donations of everything from doors to floors, and then they sell it all to raise money for environmental actions. It's a great place to lose an hour, because they have such funky, weird, wonderful stuff!
