This is small town a really small town with Eureka about a 10 minute drive away The kid is in school, therefore needs to focus on classes and gets to hang out with us when he get a chance. We didn't have a car at first, so we are limited to Arcata. This was a good thing since we wanted to check out the town that Big said the Pickens are slim but good. There are a few bars in town. This is the only one being a traditional bar. I would even go as far as saying dive bar if it were in San Diego, but here I think it's just a regular bar. Payment is cash only. There's a long bar that has settled over the years and sloped towards the Bartender. There are a few tables along the opposite wall, which we did not sit at. There may have been something out back because I saw people going that way, but I didn't go check it out. We came on three separate occasions. Everybody here was incredibly friendly as they have been in town. It seems like all the locals also come here we saw the cook from another restaurant having a drink at the end of his shift. Don't expect anything fancy here it's a straight bar with a good selection of spirits. I generally stick to a vodka soda or Keile soda when it was something like this by Jenifer behind the bar said she's happy to take direction and made me the most perfect margarita. Another person next to me even ordered the same thing. So I'm in town if you want a place to grab a drink that's straightforward and friendly. This is the place.

It was a very small pour, but, I don't need a lot. I gave the woman behind the bar at 20 dollar bill. She gave me nine dollars in change. that confused me. I wasn't aware and still don't believe that sales tax is 10% In Arcata. maybe somebody can clarify this for me? I asked someone behind the bar how it happened that I got nine dollars back for my 20. She told me" that's the way we do it here"

Before my week in Arcata California, I solely used Yelp as a guide to defined where to go. Although…read morethere was only a handful or views of a wild heart Tavern definitely caught my eye. We came in one evening for dinner during some sort of festival you order food at a counter adjacent to the bar. The guy was super friendly. He was cooking and taking orders and delivering food to tables. Needless to say he was extremely busy, especially with the event happening at the moment he said they're completely out of french fries because he had to go back and cut more potatoes. All I heard is that fries are made from potatoes in house. They were also out of onion rings for the same reason so we ordered two orders of tots and three dogs Chicago dogs that is it wasn't cheap food but it sure was delicious. We even treated to a order of fries on the house since he got some more prepared like I was super friendly. In fact, we ran into him the next day at another establishment and he remembered us. Love the small town feel love the college feel loved the food loved everything about this place. Looking forward to visiting on a day that it's less crowded in town.

Well, at least I thought that until I visited campground. This is definitely a five star restaurant in a small little town. Prices were steep, but worth it We enjoyed cocktails to start Ordered a bottle of wine to have with Dinner Amongst the three of us, we ordered two steaks and a variety of sides I personally ordered onion soup. Of course I did enjoy some steak from the boys The food was cooked perfectly The flavor was amazing The service was stellar I came back for a second visit just for a drink at the bar. The drinks are fabulous again. The service is also. I look forward to visiting again I do hear there's a seafood restaurant around the corner called salt. That's as good as campground.

Live band (can't remember their name!), two women playing sax, one of them was lead singer, lead and bass guitar and drummer, all were good. They seemed to have a certain following, I don't believe there were more than 5 people under the age of 60 in the crowd, but it was so entertaining! One senior couple sashayed and swayed, dancing to the rhythm holding each other tight, they were good! There was a tiny woman all dressed up in a pretty blue dress, her hair perfectly styled. She wore sparkly blue boots. She looked like a Faerie princess. So beautiful. I'm sure she is ageless but perhaps around 80 in human years. Our group of 8 were lucky they could accommodate us.

They have delicious food, wonderful service and we love the beautifully thought out decor. Although we loved the old location and miss the piano they had there, the new location is a little hidden gem located in Sunny Brae. They have a beautiful bar and a lovely outdoor area with heat lamps! They play pleasant music at a good volume. The atmosphere is just right at this restaurant! The deviled eggs are cooked, just right. I find this a dish where they are often too dense. But this restaurant does an amazing job with them. We went tonight for my birthday and everyone loved their food. My cocktail was delicious and the staff even brought out a yummy dessert birthday surprise for me! I highly recommend this restaurant!

Then I wanted/needed another night cap so we ended here ,where there was another party happening!! Quality/Quantity - Simple menu done well. Better if you have been drinking the whole evening as I have been. See menu on website of "Nibbles" offered. Or check out my pictures. See picture of snack table. I noticed many people did NOT know this was available, and ordered their own nibbles(identical type of snacks). I basically ordered a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. And as I walked around taking my Yelp pictures, I noticed the snack table, thank you. Atmosphere - What a huge location. The actual lounge was just okay in size, but they are connected to the historic Eagle House and I did not know where the businesses started or ended. Indoor/outdoor dining. Not sure what event was happening today, but there was a live DJ, snacks, etc. Not sure if it was open to the public...? Or if I crashed another party? Either way, I had a great time. Just checked your website; cut and pasted: "Tropical Vibes Happy Hour with DJ RunDat & DJ Spadafora - Join us for some tropical vibes at Phatsy Klines Parlor Lounge, enjoy some delicious cocktails and tasty treats. DJ RunDat & DJ Spadafora will be playing Afro beats with some Latin & Reggae Vibes sprinkled in the mix. Free all ages event." Service - Crazy busy, but they still did a good job managing the crowd. Price - $12 + generous tip. Owner Comments - Congrats on your success since 2017 and sorry to hear about the closure of your sister restaurant Tavern 1888. I was looking forward to visiting them also.
