Trivia!! And a Beer buffet. What!!

Love DownTime Taps! Great atmosphere, including the outdoor space with heaters, and the pour your own drink part of it is super unique.

Came here for the first time and loved the space and different options--beers, ciders, mead, cocktails, and wine!

We love this place, has something for everyone. We love the variety and I personally enjoy that you can get as little or as much as your want of a drink. Makes trying things out really easy and fun before committing to a full pour. Highly recommend this places for gatherings and hangouts!

While me personally I am not a big fan of the types of beer available when I went. The food was still good and the atmosphere was amazing . It was quiet enough to have conversation with my group and still lively enough to to return at a later date. Would recommend to switch up your weekly group meet up spot.

Loved the pretzel!

Great!

Staff is great beer is good Annabelle is fantastic

LOVE this place! The folks here let us have a birthday party here on the patio. They reserved that space for us, allowed us to bring food and celebrate. They are always so friendly and helpful. Highly highly recommend to anyone and everyone!

Really like being able to try different drinks in small amounts. Great variety on tap and good atmosphere. Tons of seating options inside and out for different size parties.

It’s my go to for any celebration (my birthday choice) or friends to catch up

Great place! Very friendly.

Great service. Great atmosphere

Great atmosphere and selection of drinks on tap. Friendly service always. Stop by for a few minutes or for a bit. Can't go wrong.

An excellent way to serve beer, wine, and cider! This pub offers a very large selection of beers, 3 wines, and some cider from serve-yourself taps. Pricing is by the ounce (and it's a joy for those who want tiny tastes of every beer.) The staff are friendly. The interior, furnished with wood tables and wood-panelled walls, is inviting. There is a small menu but also the option of ordering a pizza from a neighboring restaurant and having it delivered to your table in the pub. All in all, highly recpmmended.

Absolutely LOVE this spot! Seriously the best taco in town! It’s got a great vibe and the staff is always super warm, welcoming and friendly

Great concept. Pour your own beer. Even tasters. Owner was friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended.

This place is awesome. Great selection of beers, and they have a fridge with cans of beers I've never seen before - I always spend more than I intend to when I go there

Warmest most friendly atmosphere you could possibly imagine. Great food and constant rotating drink selection. If I go out, downtime is where I'm going

Love the convenience of the self-pour and atmosphere for a quick pint on the go.

Love downtime, perfect spot for an after work drink.

Amazing place to drink and eat! Great food and big assortment of beers/ciders. To top it if off the bartenders/owners are super hot. Owner Tomas makes you feel welcome everytime you come in and Jesus is the most fun to do Singo with! Everyone should give it a try.

Fun place!!

Always a good time at Downtime! Everything on the menu is so good. Highly recommend the pretzel and yaki banh. You can also bring your own food. There is a great variety of drinks from ciders to beer, wine and more. I like the rotating selection and that they keep some staple goodies on tap. The music and events are also very funny. All around highly recommend supporting this business and the great owners.

Best place in whatcom county

Friendly staff and place to hang out, good job we love you. Music and event is awesome

Good place to try a variety of drinks

Great selection of taps and great location, close to my work for a fun happy hour after I get off.

Such a fun inviting atmosphere! We love sitting on the patio in the swing. Staff is very friendly and the Live music on the weekends is an added bonus!

I love this place! Gorgeous patio area with swings! Great selection of rotating taps. Food is great and the menu keeps expanding OR you can get food from nearby and bring it in. Live music is always a huge bonus!

Tried this place for the first time recently and loved it! The live music for the summer kick off was a blast 🙂

Great Food!

Wonderful time staff was excellent and very helpful.😀

A variety of drinks, fun activities and friendly service. I love coming here.

DownTime is our favorite place! We go there whenever we can! The staff are super friendly and welcoming, there are tons of drinks choices, and the food is always delicious and well presented. It's clean, has a cool vibe, and is comfortable, with a great atmosphere. They're super family and dog friendly too!

I have no idea how we didn’t know this gem was here. This place is awesome!! The staff is very helpful, and food is top shelf!! It’s a serve yourself tap wall, and you pay by the ounce. We came for the live music but we will be back with or without it. A definite keeper.

Friendly staff, great atmosphere (outdoor music) however the beer selection was lacking.

Awesome! So much fun!

A fun way to try a bunch of different beers.

Love the ability to choose your serving size and glassware, and they have a pretty respectable selection of beers, ciders, and other beverages. Their in-house food selections are tasty, and you can get food delivered from Coconut Kenny's as well.

Delicious taps and excellent service.

Such a fantastic, and breezy atmosphere. Perfect for a quick, and relaxing evening of snacking and trying different ciders. This is my absolute favorite place to be. The pretzels 🥨 are 10/10! This hits every single spot of deliciousness!

Seriously the best snacky snack food. Love the variety and self serve drinks. They even have swings out on the patio. Family friendly ❤️

Friendly service. Great recommendations. Favorite place to meet with friends and family.

Great beers, great staff!

Great staff. Super friendly. Excellent environment!!

This place is amazing. Digital self serve 🍺

Never been at a place like this great experience all around. Beer selection was fire and food was great!!! Highly recommend

Always have the BEST time at Downtime 🙂

We love Downtime! Great service, great drinks, great small bites. This is our go to place.

One of our favorite places to meet with friends and have a pint and a bite of food. Love the beer selections.

Relaxing atmosphere. Great variety of beer and cider options, plus a tasty root beer for a non-alcoholic drink, or perfect for the kiddos! Steak fries and wings were amazing, too!

We love the service food and drinks here

Heaven on earth!

Great all around!

Downtime is the best for self-serve brews and tasty small plates. A Ferndale gem!

Great atmosphere... Lots of beer ciders and wine to try!! A great concept!!

Great place to take the family for games, food and drinks.

This is our favorite place to come and play cribbage. 😊

Downtime taps is awesome, inside and out! Awesome owner, staff, foods, and selection of veverages

Love this place! So many choices!

Great selection of beer, cider and more. Fun weekly events, my fav is music bingo! Always a great time.

Such a fun experience! Great ambiance and the cheese for the pretzel was delicious 😋

Great

Great atmosphere and great service

Great

The variety of drinks is great and the carnitas tacos are delicious! Tomas at the counter was very friendly and helpful. Overall a great experience

Excellent selections of beverages, limited but excellent food offerings (though more is available near by and can be brought in,) and a cozy, good looking place. I heartily endorse this spot!

First time here. Very impressed!

This is a fantastic spot for rotating taps and good food! You can order from the kitchen which has fantastic apps or get Coconut Kenny's delivered to your table. Dog friendly is always a plus too!

This is my favorite place to go. Excellent customer service. Great food. Chill environment to hang out or go for a quick bite. Huge variety of drinks. Trivia, music bingo, and all the events are super fun. The covered patio has swings and heaters so we'll sit outside all year. You can reserve it for parties as well.

Had some time to kill before a wedding and this was the right place. Great concept, try a few ounces of all kinds of drinks. The guy at the counter was really nice and helpful. I sipped on beers and watched soccer while waiting. Great place to hang out.

Stopped at downtime taps mid afternoon on a Friday. Pleasantly quiet, food is awesome and service is great! Perfect way to start the weekend!

We brought in a larger group around 8 pm and the staff mentioned the food wait time could be longer but there wasn’t any noticeable change in service. The out of towners in the group mentioned how Downtime Taps was “just right.” Thank you!
