Well now, how about a place I've never even seen before? In a part of the county I've never even been to before? It's not like there's much else there, other than a post office! Welcome to the delightful Acme Diner!
Whelp, no EBs on today's menu and that's fine. This isn't Fancy Fairhaven, this is earthy Whatcom County! I ordered the Acme Breakfast and it treated me just fine.
Vibe: All Around The World, Breakfast Comes For Me!
Song heard: Sugar Ray, "Fly"
Coffee: Above decent.
Did the yolk pop like it should?: No EB available, but the yolks here popped just fine.
Can I sit and read a while?: Since it was empty, yeah. There's also an ice cream stand, which is cool, and a full bar off to the side, because this is Bellingham.
Price: $21.19
Pro-tip: If you're on Mount Baker Highway going up to or down from Mount Baker, this place is only 10 minutes south of the roundabout (yes, we have roundabouts) onto Highway 9.
And I liked it just fine. The service was friendly, the food was decent, and I've been told the chowder is a nice choice for lunch. The amount of potato was probably a bit much, but I can't fault for abundance. And honestly, if you've never been to this part of the county you need to check it out! Very Twin Peaks!
Overall:
Nighthawks: 3 / 5
