    The Admiralty Lounge is a 21+ restaurant and lounge, offering inventive cuisine inspired by old Naval passages and Trade Routes. Our aesthetic and menu take a healthy inspiration from both the Aubrey-Maturin novels by Patrick O'Brien as well as Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson, backed by exceptional cocktails, beer, wine and more with spirited and non-alcoholic options for everyone.
    Delicious comfort food like Fish & Chips arrive along side re-imaginings of traditional naval meals, such as our Imperial Swine. House Smoked Oysters, Clam Chowder, and our Caesar Salad make way for locally harvested mussels and grass-fed steak while those seeking lighter fare may find their way to robust salads, or vegetarian offerings such as our seasonal Harvest Plate.
    Located next to Bellingham's iconic Mount Baker Theater, The Admiralty is perfect for an after work happy hour downtown, an inspiring meal before a show, or a late night drink with your closest friends.

    Up for a visit and we stayed at The Leo Hotel. Enjoyed both a late night bite and drinks with family at Amendment 21. And next day Jazz brunch to celebrate birthdays in our group. The food and drinks were amazing. Lite jazz playing in the background made for a totally wonderful time and we will be back.

    The service was impeccable! Our server, an amiable young fellow, took our order by memory! An amazing feat at any age. The cocktails were innovative, and the food was very good. I am looking forward to returning very soon to try more of the cocktail and food selections. And... there were fresh flowers on every table, which adds a lot to a pleasurable dining experience.
