Swan Café & Deli

The Swan Café & Deli was voted by the readers of the Bellingham Weekly as the 2004 and 2005 Best Vegetarian Restaurant. While it’s always an honor to be voted the best of anything, it’s not completely accurate since the Swan Café & Deli also offers a variety of options that contain fish or meat. Either way, the Deli concentrates on the freshest ingredients, using local organic produce whenever possible, and concocts scrumptious dishes for every diet, from meat or seafood dishes to vegetarian to vegan.

Be sure to visit our Cheese Island, located near the Deli—it has one of the best selections of cheese in Bellingham. You’ll find locally made Samish Bay organic cheese from Skagit Valley as well as wheels of brie, authentic Greek feta, and European-style butter. Don’t miss the olive bar!

The Swan Café & Deli uses premium organic ingredients whenever possible and purchases local produce in season from local organic farmers. Call the Deli if you have questions: 734-0542.

Deli hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Special Diets

We are sensitive to special dietary needs. You’ll find many prepared salads and baked goods available for special diets such as wheat free, gluten free, low carbohydrate, low fat, and low sodium. Ask our servers for possibilities to match your needs.

Juice/Espresso Bar

The Deli uses organic fresh fruits and vegetables in our juice combinations. Our juices are all non-pasteurized, offering the full benefits of vitamins, minerals, and enzymes of fresh produce. We use fresh juices and five organic frozen fruits in our smoothies. Our smoothie bases include kefir, yogurt, milk, and half & half—all organically produced.

Design your own smoothie or juice drink or enjoy one of our many tasty specials, from pure, fresh-squeezed orange juice or a shot of wheat grass to our most popular blends: Appleaid (apple, lemon, line, ginger), Hawaiian rabbit (carrots, orange, pineapple, ginger), and Emerald Pineapple (pineapple, banana, kefir, spirulina). For something really unusual try the Mocha Monkey (banana, milk, ice, chocolate, peanut butter, espresso). There’s a juice and smoothie special every day.

The Co-op offers a full line of organic espresso drinks using Fair Trade coffee.
