It was wonderful. The service was great, but the food and drinks were even better. There’s a lot of passion that went into creating a faire that is delightful on the palette, and beautiful in its presentation.
The flavors were great, the chicken juicy, and their drinks were delicious and just the right strength. Love this place and live even more that they pay their employees a living wage and share tips (says on the menu).
This place not only provides great food, but does the right thing for its people. I find great comfort in knowing that not only the experience of its diners, but the experience of their employees matter. We will absolutely come here again.
Who doesn’t love fried chicken? Between the ambience, service and the food, it was Ana amazing experience.
There is a bar and seating upstairs that has a nice ambience.
Don’t miss out on the mac n’ cheese, it was delicious with baked breadcrumbs on the top. The fried chicken had a perfect batter and was juicy inside. My partner had the baked chicken and same conclusion.
They have outdoor covered and heated seating too.
AMAZING fried chicken, wonderful cocktails, and delicious side dishes! Highly recommend the fried chicken, of course - we love the golden chicken (VERY spicy), fried chicken meal, and hot chicken especially. The rotisserie cauliflower is one of our favorite sides, and we love the beets. For two, one order of fried chicken and some sides or small plates is a perfect dinner. Great service, too.
We came into Bantam with a reservation for two up in the bar. We were a tad early so they sat us at the counter, and we ordered drinks. The staff was great. Gray and Andrea were absolutely fantastic. We got to go to our table and ordered our food. Even though we had reserved a whole chicken there were lots of people and we only got half a chicken so we got fried Chicken along with that. It was amazing. We also got the sides of mac and cheese and the beans. Both chicken were moist and tender. The fried Chicken was so delicious, drizzled with the honey and even dipped in the white wine pan sauce that came with the rotisserie chicken. We were definitely taking care of and it made celebrating my husband's birthday so nice. We will definitely be recommending Bantam to everyone. And we will be coming back for sure.
Got the Deluxe Fried Chicken Sandwich…Holy cow. It was the biggest and most delicious chicken sandwich I have ever eaten. It was incredible. Huge fried chicken breast, cheese, bacon, an over easy egg, lettuce, and sauce. Also the fries were amazing too. I only got the one meal and it was $27 dollars (including their pre-calculated tip and $2 worth of ranch).
I will say getting parking was a nightmare though. My takeout order was waiting like 15 minutes for me while I was trying to find a spot. It still tasted good luckily.
My wife and I enjoy this place. Fun date night. Great cocktails of all kinds. Delicious Hush puppies.. There are different chicken dishes. I had the Golden chicken. Super crispy, super spicy. (Habenaro). My wife had the chicken bacon burger. Great flavors. Great staff. We Enjoyed our visit. Check it out.
First time eating here and absolutely amazing! Perfect flavor and texture is just amazing. The restaurant is gorgeous. Best fried chicken in Bellingham!
A very tasty local Bellingham spot. If you love chicken this menu is for you. Great food and awesome cocktails to go with it all. They have a helpful and fun staff and make sure to try a different dish each time as it's always a good choice! A fun spot to take a friend or a group.
