Washington Has 6 Butcher Shops Where the Meat Beats the Grocery Store and Costs Less

One butcher shop on this list never locks its doors. It runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so a midnight steak craving actually has somewhere to go. That detail hooked me fast. Then I learned another shop sells exotic game next to its jerky, and a third keeps homemade salsa beside the premium cuts.

A wave of restaurant closures in Bellingham and Whatcom County has prompted a local commercial real estate broker to examine what’s driving the trend. Rising costs, falling foot traffic and shifting local economic conditions are squeezing small-business owners from multiple directions. FULL STORY: Why are so many Bellingham restaurants closing?
