Dinner here late until 10 on a Saturday excellent! Was surprised to find this open and empty after being turned away at Mazzoti’s at 835 we arrived here thankful it was open and quiet. Wine was excellent as was the food. Spinach salad, breakfast sandwich, kid friendly hamburger, and amazing French dip. Fries and sweet potatoes fries were perfection! Always thought this was breakfast lunch only but it’s been open 9 months at night on weekends. Hot chocolate with whipped cream also excellent.
This is the only restaurant at 10am we found with options friendly to my nephew’s food choices. Shannon sat us. Parker was a wonderful server toward my little buddy.
Parker helped us know about the children’s menu options had all my nephews requests on one choice. The regular menu didn’t.
Plus, Parker added even grownups can order items on the children’s if they like. He said the cafe likes to make things affordable for people so age is no barrier to choice or affordability 😁
The food is very good. Everything was made the way we asked.
This place is AMAZING because of it delicious food, super friendly staff and great atmosphere! My husband and i had an awesome breakfast! I had the ham n eggs n green onions served over a bowl of gravy covered gnocchi!!! We are from California but would definitely recommend and return to this amazing "Big Blue Cafe" Yummo!!!
Super cute and (surprise) blue spot with decent food. Ordered Eggs Benedict which comes with home fries. The Benny was good, but the home fries were definitely frozen at some point and pretty lacking. Staff was super friendly and on their game. Will definitely come back and try something else.
Great service and great food. Best breakfast we've had during our travels up and down the coast. The cottage fries were delicious and crispy. Everything was perfect. And the coffee is really good too!!
I have been in Humboldt County for over 5 years now, and I never visited here not until recently, about a year ago when my husband moved up here.
I would say this visit was our 10th time together at this place and we never were disappointed.
Staff members are always nice, has smile on their faces and very attentive to customers.
The food is really great. I love the flavors and freshness of their dishes. My husband and I sometimes would get the same plate because we really enjoy it - the Huevos rancheros 👍🏼. The orange juice is a must.
We only go here for breakfast but my friends really love the lunch menu. One thing I would suggest, the sweet dish’s like pancakes or French toast aren’t the to choices her from my experience, but still yummy.
Give them a try you would love it.
What a find! Everything we ordered was delicious, but "Jeff's Clam Chowder" was the best New England clam chowder I have ever had, seriously. Worth a major detour to visit!
If you’re wondering, where is the delicious semi-affordable breakfasts that the locals probably prefer is this is it. For the quality of deliciousness of the breakfast and get a nice portion of amazing bacon, great biscuits and for the vegitarians they absolutely do a great job seamlessly replacing the meat parts of meals with avocados, tofu and the like. The veggie sausage gravy was great. Coffee? Great. Service great. The quality you get the prices are actually quite nice.
It was busy and we still got seated very quick. Love the paintings and the service was phenomenal. The only thing I didn't like was the tofu sausage, but only because I didn't realize it would taste like actual sausage 😅
Update: I went back with a similar experience, only this time I tried the chicken apple sausage and WOW is it good 🥰
This place is very good for breakfast. Barker, my host, was very professional, and very courteous. I had an omelette loaded with lots of vegetables, and oatmeal. It was truly delicious. If I'm ever in town again, I will definitely go back.
Parker, our waiter from Tennessee, was super hospitable and friendly! Don’t lose him. Food was amazing, definitely coming back.
I loved the vegetarian option of avocado and tofu!
The food was good, the atmosphere was okay. It was a little crowded even though the tables were small and it was a bit cold when the door would open or people would leave it open.
Got here right before the rush. The restaurant was full, so pretty soon people after us were waiting.
Wonderful place for breakfast! The eggs were very yellow and delicious. Biscuit is perfect, crispy outside soft inside, heartily recommended!!
Best breakfast in Arcata. The breakfast sandwiches are amazing, also try their breakfast burritos. They have potatoes called GGP (garlic ginger potatoes) and you have to order them.
Ask for Parker and tell him 'We are the Titans, the mighty, mighty Titans!' Best service of the whole trip and the ginger beef sandwich was fire. Also, clam chowder was great. Will definitely return for both the A++ service from Parker and the delicious food. Thank you Parker for being an amazing person and making us feel like family!!!
Traveling and found this little cafe and can’t recommend it enough! We showed up for late breakfast and had amazing service, super courteous, attentive and the space was fabulous. We got a variety of dishes from breakfast and lunch menu, as well as a pitcher of mimosas and loved it all. Large portions and quality ingredients and preparation make this worth a stop!
