What Past Participants Have Said...

 

“The Mount Bakery loves the Bite of Bellingham! It has been great to see the event grow from its humble beginnings in a parking lot off Bay St. to a major downtown party that people really look forward to each year. It's easy when you operate a busy little restaurant and bakery to begin imagining you are at the center of the universe and that of course everyone in town knows who you are and where you are. The Bite gives us a great chance to show off what we do best and to meet and impress hundreds of new potential customers that may never have happened into our storefront. We also love the chance to schmooze and sample the offerings of other local foodies. It's always fun and inspiring.”

"The Bite of Bellingham is a great event-- a fantastic marketing opportunity and very fun. I wouldn't miss it!"      

“It was a huge success for Boundary Bay! The people that went really enjoyed themselves and I am looking forward to this year’s Bite.”

-Janet Lightner, General Manager, Boundary Bay Brewery & Bistro
