Whatcom Roundup: Brewery opening soon; Wingstop progress; new skincare option
Here’s a weekly roundup of the latest retail and restaurant activity around Whatcom County:
New Wingstop hiring
Wingstop, a chain restaurant known for its chicken wings, is making progress toward opening its new Bellingham location. The restaurant is now hiring, according to a new sign at 177 Telegraph Rd. in Bellingham.
Boundary on State getting close
Boundary on State, the new location of Boundary Bay Brewery, will open soon, according to a recent social media post.
The new location was announced back in February, a new brick-and-mortar location in the previous location of Time and Materials Taphouse that closed in November 2024.
“We’re opening a new, smaller space in downtown Bellingham,” a Feb. 20 Instagram post by Boundary Bay states. “True to the spirit and a tip of the hat to the old, this fresh new gathering place will feature a nanobrewery, a rotating and carefully curated food menu, along with wine, signature cocktails and the Boundary Bay beers you know and love.”
On June 1, the business posted “Stay tuned. The countdown begins soon,” along with a photo of the location opening soon.
No official opening date has been announced for the brewery at 954 N State St.
Skincare boutique opening in Fairhaven
Midlife Skin Boutique, a skincare studio curated for people age 40 and older, is hosting a grand opening event Tuesday, June 9.
The new studio offers skincare products, skin audits and personalized skincare regimens.
Midlife Skin Boutique will be located at 1200 Harris Ave., on the fourth floor of the historic Sycamore Building in Fairhaven.
