Bloom is a new restaurant that will be opening this year. So what? Lots of restaurants open every year? Well, not vegan restaurants, and in Bellingham to boot! A Community Food Coopster told me it will be located on Cornwall Avenue in the old Billiards space (across the street from The Vines).
Vegan/Vegetarian. PERFECT. Although there are many places to eat in Bellingham that serve vegetarian options, it can get a little dicey if you're concerned about cross contamination the way a vegan or gluten free diner would be. So a restaurant serving exclusively vegetarian meals could address this concern.
I will be sampling the menu when they open. I do eat poultry and fish, but I thrive on veggie meals – light, filling and easily digested keeps me going. And I have a LOT going.
Bloom (restaurant) 1320 Cornwall Ave Bellingham WA
Update: Gluten-Free Doctor reports Bloom had a soft opening October 13th. It will be open Tuesdays thru Fridays 8am-2pm and on Fridays it will reopen as a lounge at 5pm.
Update 10/2009: Been visiting Bloom on a regular basis.. super foods, super greens, super comfortable. Enjoying the big tables and wifi as well. They have posted their daily menu on their new website – so check it out BloomBellingham.com.

It's a big space. The sign says they will have restaurant but also dancing and music at night. Should be fun to see what happens once they open.
Hope to see you there again sometime!
Just had lunch after waiting and waiting for an open sign-and it was well worth the wait. Awesome food, healthy, artfully presented. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it, can't wait to go back. I will go in the evening once they are approved for their liquor license and can enjoy a glass of wine with dinner.
I had a late lunch there today. It was nice to be able to order anything I wanted from the menu. It was a compete relief to eat at a restaurant and NOT worry about accidentally eating any animal product. I will definitely be eating there again, and again.
