AB Crepes

AB Crepes has been a beloved fixture in downtown Bellingham since 2012, when two Western Washington University students transformed their passion for crepe-making into a thriving local business at 1311 Railroad Avenue. The story began in 2011 when the founders walked past the empty storefront and envisioned creating a welcoming space where the community could enjoy handcrafted crepes. After months of perfecting recipes at intimate crepe parties with friends, they secured the lease and opened their doors, building a reputation that has endured through multiple ownership transitions—including a new owner taking over in October 2025. The menu showcases an impressive array of both sweet and savory creations, from the popular Canary (fresh banana with Nutella at $10.99) to the indulgent Strawberry Short Crepe ($15.99) featuring angel food cake and graham crackers. Savory enthusiasts rave about the NW Sammie ($19.99) with wild-caught Alaskan smoked salmon, dill cream cheese, and capers, available until 5pm. The establishment stays open late on weekends—until 1am Wednesday through Saturday—making it a perfect late-night destination for the college crowd and night owls. AB Crepes offers gluten-free and vegan options, and guests paying cash receive a 4% discount. The casual, friendly atmosphere encourages diners to be themselves while enjoying creative combinations like the Apple Pie crepe with flame-roasted Fuji apples or the Harvest Moon with roasted butternut squash and sweet potato.
