Rudy's Pizzeria: 1230 N State Street


Rudy's was one of the first places I ever had vegan pizza, and I have to say I love it now as much as I first loved it so many years ago. I am partial to the choose-your-own veggie pizza without the daiya vegan cheese, as seen in the photo above, but either with vegan cheese or without, Rudy's has got you covered. This place is fabulous and continues to be one of my go-to spots, even after all this time. They have a pizza for everyone, whether omni, vegan, or gluten-free. Rudy's is another example of an awesome restaurant that I am so happy is in Bellingham!

Whether dining in or taking out, you can't go wrong with Rudy's. They have a huge variety of pizzas you can choose from, and they are very very vegan-friendly, even offering vegan cheese if you so desire.

When dining in, their wine choices are decent and quite economical, and it is easily affordable to buy a bottle of red to share which will go nicely with your pizza. The decor at Rudy's is cheery and happy, and I really enjoy the colorful mosaics. A couple of weeks ago I had dinner there and enjoyed an olive onion and spinach pizza, one of my favorite combos.

I think my favorite thing about Rudy's pizza is the sauce, which is so good that if you aren't a fan of vegan cheese, you can go for straight veggies and no cheese and be satisfied. Good pizza sauce means a lot, especially on a cheese-less pizza, and Rudy's has it down.

The owner of Rudy's Pizza comes into the Co-op all the time and I mentioned Daiya to him on 2/12. He got some within a week, yesterday he told me he had it & was ready to go. So we're going to Rudy's to get a Daiya pizza this weekend. How cool is that?

Thanks for the good reviews.

I used to work at Rudy's around 2008 and I agree--BEST pizza sauce EVER. I'm moving back to Bellingham soon and, now that I'm vegan, I'm excited to have that pizza again because of how good their sauce is. (I also prefer no cheese, even vegan cheese, and have noticed how much the quality of the sauce can vary.) Thanks for making this website!

Ambo Ethiopian: 902 N State Street #104

The moment I have been dreaming of for over a year now has finally happened--Mulunesh Belay has opened Ambo Ethiopian again, now in it's new location!  As soon as I heard the news, I knew I would be there for the very first moment that she opened. I did not want to miss a moment and I could barely stand the waiting. Yesterday, November 16, 2019, was the grand opening in the new restaurant on N. State Street, and my husband and I went with some friends to celebrate and once again enjoy Mulu's amazingly delicious cuisine. (And yes, we were the very first ones there). I ordered the kale and yellow split peas and everything was just as good as I had remembered. I am already planning when I can eat there again (which will be tomorrow evening, in case you are wondering, followed most likely by multiple evenings this week!!). Over this past year, I have missed the delicious vegan food from Ambo Ethiopian, and Mulu's beautiful bright smile, more than I can say, and I am...

Bayou on Bay: 1300 Bay Street

Not only does Bayou have several vegan options on their menu, they also have weekend vegan brunch options! If you have not yet tried the vegan hash, I recommend it.  This mouth-watering dish takes potatoes, avocado, onions, other veggies--cooked just right and combined with the perfect amount of seasoning--to create a fantastic dish you will want to eat again and again. Weekends are just that much better when you can incorporate brunch at Bayou into them!

Pigs Peace Sanctuary: 27631 56th Ave NW, Stanwood, WA

I can't believe I have wanted to visit the Pigs Peace Sanctuary for nearly 20 years, and then finally, yesterday, my wish came true. And the experience was truly amazing. If you are not yet familiar with the Pigs Peace Sanctuary, I encourage you to learn more about it. We are so lucky to have such a valuable place so nearby Bellingham. Not only does it provide a safe place for rescued animals to recover from trauma and live out their lives in peace and happiness, it also offers humans a place to connect with and learn more about these beautiful, often misunderstood creatures.  Judy Woods and  the volunteers that help her are doing really incredible work and you cannot help but be moved by the stories of bravery, survival, recovery, and connection that Judy shares with you when you visit the sanctuary. Tour appointments have to be scheduled and approved with Judy in advance, and people are eligible to sign up as volunteers with the sanctuary after attending a tour. My...
