Rocket Donuts has closed as of September 2019. But the rocket outside remains as of now.
[Anne Christiansen, 02/27/2021]
Rocket Donuts is in downtown Bellingham and showcases original sci-fi movie posters and some interesting displays. Good doughnuts and coffee, too.
[Lisa Fu, 03/04/2014]
The Rocket Donuts Rocket is in the parking lot outside. Inside you can get a nice fresh doughnut and coffee while enjoying the retro sci-fi decor.
[Tatyana Jula, 02/03/2014]Outside of Rocket Donuts you can find several pieces of art. One is a fully lit 1930ish rocket; it looks like a space ship out of Buck Rogers or Flash Gordon. You will also find several other pieces of art around the intersection. One is a big wooden ball and a large magic wand or scepter.
