Some local bars and restaurants in Bellingham are apparently following the lead of many in Seattle in requiring patrons to be vaccinated.
City Council member Hollie Huthman posts on her Facebook page that she’s learned of more than a dozen establishments that have set the rule.
Some on the list are Bayou on Bay, The Cabin, Temple Bar, The Mount Bakery, Wild Buffalo and The Shakedown.
Huthman is an owner of The Shakedown.
The establishments now require proof of vaccination via a card or your record stored on your phone for those seated inside.
She asks that everyone follow the directive of these businesses but also to respect those that aren’t requiring vaccines.
Establishments currently requiring proof of vaccination include: Bayou on Bay, L&L Libations, Redlight, The Cabin, Temple Bar, Pepper Sisters, Uisce Irish Pub, Black Sheep, Lorikeet, The Mount Bakery, Grand Ave Alehouse, Wild Buffalo, The Shakedown, The Racket – Bar & Pinball Lounge.
