Which now-closed restaurant in Bellingham would you bring back? Let us know in this survey
Over the years, most of us have had at least one favorite restaurant close, leaving us lamenting the favorite meals we will never eat there again.
For many restaurants that closed over the last two years, pandemic-related fallout was a factor.
According to a recent analysis by foodservice industry trade publication Nation’s Restaurant News, COVID-19 and the pandemic have had a noticeable impact on restaurants. According to their March 2022 report, more than 10% of restaurants in the U.S. have closed for good since the start of the pandemic in March 2020. That’s over 79,000 closed restaurants in two years.
Bellingham, like many areas, has seen waves of closures both temporary and permanent since the start of the pandemic.
Ups and downs in the restaurant world are normal, but Bellingham has lost many favorites recently, including Fairhaven Pizza, Thousand Acre Cider House, Casa Que Pasa and more.
Or, it may have been a long time since you last ate at your once-favorite spot but you still get that craving sometimes. Wouldn’t it be great if you could bring that restaurant back and eat there one last time?
Tell us which Bellingham restaurants you miss the most in the survey below. If there is more than one place on your list, just refresh the page and make a second submission. We’ll collect the responses for a future story.
