Reviews
Bellis Fair Mall in Bellingham is a wonderful indoor mall that is really quite large. Six large retail stores are the anchor stores at the ends of the "spokes" of the mall layout are great stores unto themselves. These are Target, Dick's Sporting Goods, Ashley Furniture, Macy's, J C Penny, and Kohls. On the aisles of the anchor store spokes are dozens of retailers such as Victoria's Secret, Lids, Spencer's Gifts, TasTEA Spice & Co., Vans, Famous Footwear, Relax Body Works, Lenscrafters, and Brick Island Lego to name a few. Bellis Fair Mall also has 15 different restaurants and eateries sporting a wide range of foods. There are also numerous vendors populating the middle of the aisles leading to and from the anchor stores. And there's even a mini-golf place to have fun when the days are wet or snowy! The parking lots are huge! Bellis Fair Mall is truly a one stop shopping extravaganza to spend a few hours walking around window shopping and eating in a peaceful and enjoyable atmosphere. I highly recommend spending time here on a relaxing weekend day.

Stopped in while on a trip & 2/3 of my experiences sucked! Panda was out of Chow Mein so we decided to hit Cinnabon to kill 15 minutes while a fresh batch cooked. @ Cinnabon I asked the lady if she could warm the extra icing and her reply was "You don't need it." Meanwhile the machine asked for a tip! NOT!! I walked to "It's Sugar" and they were nice & inviting - they are the only reason for the one star I'm giving (and they actually deserved 5⭐️'s). Then we circled back to Panda - fresh noodles, but most entrees were almost empty now. Tired, we chose from the slim pickins. Then I ordered a diet soda & they were out... no sign, now my food is bagged & I have no beverage. They looked stupid when I pointed out that they sucked! I'm not local - but if I were I'd never come back! Conabon- ZERO STARS Panda - ZERO STARS! It's Candy 5⭐️'s Good luck to future visitors!

Solid shopping spot with a good mix of stores and plenty of space to walk around without feeling cramped. It’s generally clean, easy to navigate, and convenient when you need to get multiple things done in one place. Not every store hits for me but overall it’s a reliable mall and still worth the trip.

I know the mall gets a bad rap from some Bellingham folks, but I honestly think that’s outdated. If you haven’t been in years, you might be surprised. It’s lively, has a good energy, and there are plenty of fun shops to explore. Yeah, it can get a little crowded at times, but that just shows people are actually enjoying it again. The food court is solid and has a comfortable seating area, which makes it easy to turn a quick stop into a longer hangout. I’ve had a lot of easy, fun afternoons there just walking around and checking things out. It’s not perfect, but it’s definitely not what the critics say. Give it another try—you might change your mind.

I was pleasantly surprised by my visit to Bellis Mall – it felt like I was transported back in time to the golden age of shopping malls! Unlike so many malls across the country that are struggling or half-empty, Bellis Mall is thriving. The anchor stores were clearly in place and appeared to be doing very well. Nearly every storefront was occupied and open, giving it a vibrant and lively atmosphere. Kiosks galore! The selection of shops was great, and it was refreshing to see so much activity, with people enjoying their time shopping, dining, and just spending time together. It’s a wonderful contrast to the decline many malls are facing today, and it made for a fun, nostalgic experience. Definitely worth a visit!
