HI Tide Coffee
5309 Guide Meridian Rd, Bellingham, WA
Crema's Take
“HI Tide Coffee operates out of a charming camper setup in Bellingham and has earned serious respect for their technically solid espresso work—reviewers consistently praise their baristas' skill and the quality of their shots. Beyond the fundamentals, they're known for creative seasonal drinks like their viral White Pumpkin and Crème Brûlée iced lattes that keep regulars coming back, all served in adorable signature cups that give the spot real character. It's the kind of place where even espresso purists end up surprised by what the menu can do.”

I have visited HiTide 3 times now over the last 2 weeks. Coffee was great every time, their baristas know what they are doing! Their cups are also unique in our area, and I think they are adorable. Not that it makes or breaks my opinion, but it is a cute bonus. As far as cost goes - it is on the higher end of the spectrum in comparison to other coffee shops/places. However, I believe the cost is worth it if you want to treat yourself. I have paid similar prices at another coffee stand in Whatcom County, and the product/service were not even close to comparable. HiTide was much better in every aspect.
Love this place! Incredible espresso drinks, with lots of fun options. I am typically an espresso only kind of person (with the occasional cream added), but now I’m addicted to the crème brûlée iced latte (with half the flavor).
From reading other reviews, sounds like they have some really fun seasonal drinks, which make this a fun go-to spot. However I was grabbing a good 'ol iced vanilla latte and was blown away by the $8+ priced tag for a 16oz drink that is half ice. Might be worth it for something specialty, but definitely not your standby coffee order with unfortunately slow service.
10/10 This place is totally worth the hype! I ordered the White Pumpkin drink which was absolutely delicious. The espresso in it tastes perfect which I’m always on the hunt for a good tasting espresso! Hi Tide, you guys know what you’re doing, keep it up! 🎃 ☕️
Finally had the chance to stop by HI Tide, and I wasn’t disappointed. Located off Guide Meridian and W. Smith, out of a camper rv. They have a seasonal section of drinks for Fall that have pumpkin, maple, and sea salt flavors. I ordered an iced Honey Graham Latte, and it was delicious. Definitely on the sweeter side. Can’t wait to go back and try the rest of their coffee options. 👍🏼 friendly service.
