The pub keeps going through changes over the years, and mostly for the better. The food just keeps on improving. Service can be very slow at times, so don't come here to eat if you are in a hurry. Staff are really friendly, and The Pub has an authentic Arcata vibe to it. Highly recommend the pizzas, the cauliflower wings, and the salad. They have rotating specials that can be pretty interesting. Great selection of beers, too. read more

I didn't want to come back but my friend already made "reservation". It didn't seem to matter because we waited over an hour in a half empty restaurant. They were unable to make multiple dishes because they "sold out". Again the dishes did not come with the ingredients listed on the menu and again the server was rude about it! I can't believe I gave it another chance. What a waste of time, money and calories. read more

Best gnocchi I've ever had! Mac n cheese was amazing. A little pricey but for the quality of the food it made sense. Fantastic service and it was super chill! Loved it! read more

The food was just not very good, we were a table of 8 and it took almost one hour to get served. Service was spastic with sides coming out too soon and main dishes took forever. The queso was cold and congealed. The waiter was truly confused on how to handle it and apologized for serving it cold but said he couldn't just replace it with warm, and they had no way of warming it. Still charged for it even though it was untouched. Super weird and awkward. We Won't be coming back. read more

Came here for Mother's Day lunch after making a reservation. We waited over 90 minutes for our order from a limited menu. Won't be coming back. read more

This is one of my spots to visit when I'm in Arcata. I love that they are open late and have plenty of food options. Service is always great even when they've are short on staff. We got 2 old fashioned,burgers,salad and a pizza. We ordered too much but we came in hungry. I'm not into sports but it's cool that they have different sports on all the screen TVs by the bar area. read more

The guy that took order was fine but it took forever for food to come me and my mom ordered same drink they tasted different and it was a sparkling strawberry lemonade (not hard) Food came out all of us had bad food my daughters dish had corn it was really dry like they warmed it up twice or more I had pasta chicken was bland and pasta was dry My mom and sister that came from out of town had veggies,meat & rice Worst part was veggies were really over cooked We told waiter he gave a 20% off I will never return Btw as I was leaving I seen 2 other people complaining about food so I know this happens often The owner needs to be there for his staff and his paying customers read more

This place has great drinks and great food. I've come here quite a lot, and I have never been disappointed.

We had our small dog with us and immediately got a table on the patio. Service was very attentive without being annoying. We order the cheesesteak, BLAT, truffle tots and Cobb salad. Everything was delicious. The cheesesteak was tender (not greasy) with just the right amount of cheese and carmelized onions. The tots were crunchy and flavorful. The salad was huge with a ton of chicken, bacon and a whole avocado. My son got the BLAT and it looked very good. I highly recommend the Pub at the Creamery for your next meal. read more

We really enjoyed our time here. The vibe was great, service attentive, drinks abundant and food was yummy. I loved the Italian sub sandwich. The bread was toasty and the sandwich was delicious. I am still thinking about it. Pizza was huge and tasty. The calzone was also delicious. The place was packed and I thought the service handled it perfectly. read more

The food was so delicious. Mac and Cheese was creamy and delicious with the crusted top. The fries were crispy and so good. The vibe inside was lively and nice. read more

The Pub at The Creamery - Mac and Cheese + Fries with ranch - Chicken Wings Near Me - Arcata, California

I had a terrible experience today, the server sucked. While ordering i get interupted while ordering by the manager saying "hey you have a plate thats about to get cold", 10 minutes later she comes back and i order my drink which they cant make they bring my bfs drink. After 15 whole minutes she comes back and i tell her im not ordering a drink from you, and she responds with a smart ass remark. Not happy with my service. I hope they don't work their long. "If you guys are mad about the drink no need to be, don't be sorry" we weren't mad about the drink just the time it took for her to come back also the audacity. Ive never been mad at the creamery i drove 30 minutes to get there, this time it sucked read more

We went to The Pub for their Mother's Day specials. The menu had about eight items. Our incomplete order arrived 90 minutes after we ordered. The "Belgian" waffles were thin, overcooked and then cold. Three tiny spots of whipped cream decorated the four separated waffle pieces. They had the appearance of Eggo toaster waffles. We had to ask for syrup. The Eggs Benedict was served on a dry muffin, thin ham and no Hollandaise sauce. After the second request for sauce we were told they had run out. We also had to make several requests for items that we ordered. The only bright spot was good potatoes. Needless to say, we will not return. read more

Pretty damn expensive but also pretty damn good. Always a great vibe inside! Especially during the holidays!

The staff was nice and pizza from the wood fired oven decent--too much sugar in the sauce tho--but the rest of our food was just awful and took forever to arrive. The sandwiches were soggy and fries so dry and hard they were completely inedible-- and we were so hungry since we missed lunch and could've devoured even most mediocre food with happy gusto. Instead I ate slowly and forced myself to finish because we had an early start with no time for breakfast tomorrow. The place has a nice warm vibe, but please do yourself a favor and don't come here for the food. Bar staff was nice with a good selection of beer on tap. The kitchen needs help--avoid the food. Order only the pizza and anticipate being underwhelmed even if it's wood fired read more

I met my friend at the pub for an afternoon cocktail. They have a full bar, but only a few cocktails are listed and none of the good ones. I do remember a long cocktail menu that had all kinds of delicious options. So I was a little disappointed. I had the sidecar which ended up being quite delicious. You can have it blended or on the rocks. Our waitress was really kind and friendly and fun. She took good care of us. It was Sunday afternoon and our intention was to visit for a while. We ordered two cocktails each and one of the flatbreads to share. It was the end of our waitress's shift and she was hovering around. Apparently she had to close out her tab for the day before she could leave. So she was hustling us for the check and to pay, even though we were not done. This puts this waitress in an awful position and could have ruined her tip. I asked specifically who is the manager and why can't you get your tip after you leave? She said it had something to do with the system and she wouldn't get a tip at all if she left without wrapping us up first. Whatever the system is, it needs to change. It is plain rude to ask somebody for their payment when they are still enjoying their cocktail and appetizer. We were sitting outside at a small table, not taking up much space, and it had been less than two hours. It was not as if we had been there all day. The cocktails that I purchased was $16 for each. My friend ordered a similar priced cocktail. We spent close to $100. And were easy patrons. Yet we were treated as if they couldn't wait for us to go. Because they wanted us to pay. What if we had wanted to have another drink? After she closed out our tab no one came to our table to see if we wanted another drink. It was as if we were being ignored and they wanted us to go. This is unacceptable. This is not customer service. The place was empty and not very busy. Music blasting on the inside. I am disappointed in the pub, and will likely not choose to go there anymore. The inside is so loud if they have any music playing it is impossible to hold a conversation. read more

The bar staff was great while we waited for our table. Great green tea shots and again really attentive friendly bartenders. We had a large group so we expected a wait but there was some discombobulation with seating is. The table sat empty for 15 minutes. Anyways. It was pretty good food. Took a little longer than we would like to get the food out since we had children with us, but the food was good overall I tried something different, which I normally don't do and had the broccoli and beef rice bowl and it was pretty tasty The waiter was really nice and he did his best to take care of us One thing I would recommend is to not have a jukebox right by the door that doesn't sound great. It's just one big speaker blaring, I feel bad for the people sitting next to it. My wife did love the burger. I would say that was the highlight. I don't remember anybody else in our group raving about the food I loved the bar and the set up of the bar and the overall size of the restaurant just not sure I would go out of my way next time I'm up there. read more

The food tastes good, but GI distress afterwards is a given. I'm not sure why. It doesn't seem like a food poisoning type of thing. It also doesn't seem to matter what you order, and it seems to be somewhat universal among the friends and family that have eaten here. The venue is also very loud, definitely a sports bar kind of vibe. Sometimes the siren call of Pub At the Creamery draws me back in, and I just live with the gastrointestinal consequences and sensory overwhelm. I mean it must be pretty good if I just keep deciding to live with the negative aspects, right? read more

Nice place to hang out with friends and family for beer and hamburgers along with chicken wings battered in Korean BBQ sauce or muerte, buffalo, Sriracha, lemon pepper or garlic Parmesan sauce for cool $16 but $2 extra for boneless. They have the most amazing pizzas fired in the proper wood burning pizza oven and usual Salads. I love the variety of forty tap beer for all kinds of flavors and the reasonable price of less than $6. All the locals hang out here! There is a large area with a pool table and seats, huge bar that can seat fifteen people, several booths that are comfortable for four to six people and tables for four. The service staffs are fast and observant. The beer served quickly in chilled glass and excellent tasting. The two dishes were made quickly. The truffle tots were delicious but the salad was too salty. Overall good vibes and fabulous location with friendly people. read more

Check the specials. They're awesome choices. Really good service and great ambiance. A bit loud, perhaps due to the very high open ceiling, but acoustics aside, it's a great look. Philly cheesesteak was tasty and not overly huge. Does not come with fries or anything so you might consider adding a salad or fries. Cesar salad is a very generous portion - came tossed with an over abundance of red onion, but easy to eat around. Fried garbanzo beans replaced the traditional croutons which was an okay thing, but I personally prefer a great herb crouton. Lots of cocktails, wines and beers. Would like to see a couple signature desserts added to the menu. Pricing is on the higher end. read more

The Pub at The Creamery - Main menu - Chicken Wings Near Me - Arcata, California

We came here for dinner while traveling through the area. It was a cute place, nice and lively - great service! The staff was very helpful and friendly, the beer, cider and drink menu quite expansive. There were even some fun mocktails! The food was pretty tasty... I had the green salad with lemon vinaigrette and the lemon pepper bone in chicken wings. The wings were nicely cooked, hot and fresh and the salad ingredients as well. My son ordered the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. We had to order fries on the side.... The fries were super good! Very crispy and hot. The sandwich was good, but the portion of chicken a bit small. To drink I had the peach cider (tasted more just like a sour beer) and a Cadillac Margarita - which was great! All in all a solid and fun place, I would go back! read more

favorite restaurant. Everything is amazing. Pizza, drinks, appetizers. Never had a bad meal here. Many of the bad reviews are about the service but they are just busy because a lot of people like this restaurant... I don't think that's the end of the world at least not for me. I've gone here many times and always very impressed with food and service. Wish they still stayed open late and had brunch but besides that no complaints @ all. Also very roomy nice atmosphere very fun for hanging out with friends read more

Be prepared if you are considering this place... It is loud AF in here with the Juke box competing with the kitchen music. Be ready to yell. The service is spotty, and tonight, just plain rude. I really do give the benefit of the doubt, and have gotten lucky with service here, but tonight the night ended with the server saying "I don't want to work here anymore" as he threw a menu at the table in front of us very aggressively. All this maybe because we pointed out that we were overcharged for drinks? Maybe because they got my friends order wrong so we sent it back? Check your bill if you come here, our dinner companions shared they have pointed out before that the bill shows a higher charges than the menu for the drinks on the back page. I have tried this place many times and have consistently walked away thinking the same, the music is too loud. Overwhelmingly so. Tonight's rudeness outburst was just too much. There is nothing terribly unique about the food. You can find the same in the other breweries in Humboldt. Do yourself a favor and go to one of those. read more

Went over the weekend was highly unimpressed. The building and restaurant was clean and looked good. The staff very very underwhelming and lack of quality service. To be honest they were quite rude. The food was bland lacked seasoning and flair. The chef screaming and yelling from the kitchen the whole time got old. The food we ordered didn't match the description on the menu. So many good places in Arcata I would skip this one. If you're looking to go to a bar get drunk and get some bar food then maybe this is for you. read more

Free pool table, good selection of drinks, industrial style atmosphere, and great services. They have an amazing wood stove with many options. My partner and I get the margarita pizza. read more

Love us some Pub at the Creamery. It's a regular spot for our weekly date night. We each get a pizza, share the house salad and get a couple of their creative cocktails. My favorite vegetarian pizza is the Greek. The husband likes the classic pizza. My favorite thing about the house salad are the roasted garbanzo beans. Their cocktails are delicious and their ice is huge and clear just like we like em! You can also get the food to go which we did last night. The hostess called when the food was ready so I could pick it up hot and fresh. So great customer service too. read more

The Pub at The Creamery - Chicken Wings Near Me - Arcata, California

I'm from LA, I was just cruising through Arcata to visit a buddy. He brought me the The Pub to sample brews I've never had before. I was really just hungry and would be driving not long after, so I didn't try the brew sampler platters they got (which looked awesome), but I gave their standard burger a shot. And I was interested in the "Watermelon" beer they had, which happened to be clear hard seltzer. It was very good, and went great with my meal. What a damn good burger. The beef was exquisite and juicy. The bread made from scratch was delightful. The Swiss cheese was mouthwatering. The flavor of the red onions lingered in my mouth for hours, and complimented the fresh tomato very well. I enjoyed the fries, and I thought their ranch was exceptional. I asked about their ranch, but the staff wasn't sure if the ranch was special in any way, so I concluded it was the fries that just went really well with their ranch dressing. My buddy ordered the fried Buffalo chicken pizza, and I tried a slice. WHOOAAA SOOO GOOD. OMG. I'm sorry I didn't take photos of the food, or my Watermelon (Clarity) beer, but I was too busy eating it all without a pause. I could have savored my bites a little better, but I think I'll just come back and try again. And the service was FIVE STARS. Really friendly, hardworking professionals. All of them. Beautiful, comfy establishment. I highly recommend. read more

Was really wanting a wood fired pizza. Lots of TVs for sports. Fairly busy for 3:30 in the afternoon but got service and food at a good pace. I was mildly disappointed as I usually expect a crisper crust for a wood fired pizza place but the taste of our classic pizza did not disappoint. Very tempted to try calzone, maybe next time as I would go back. read more

We went here when first arriving at arcata and really liked the vibe. Lots of great beers on tap and went extra step when I ordered a "hoppy ipa" to bring over 2 tasters first so I could pick. Food was good, I would go back, but not great. We loved the spinich dip w focaccia . They were out of the flatbread we wanted so we got cheese which was ok a bit too oily. The pizza will try again because we loved the crust but too much saucy topping (pesto) so it was too wet. Service very friendly and efficient. read more

The Pub at The Creamery - Chicken Wings Near Me - Arcata, California

Horrible experience, the menu is full of snarky disclaimers about how long it takes to cook food and how automatic gratuity is added for groups of 5 or more or checks over $200. Also no splitting checks. Took about 30 minutes just to get a round of drinks. Food took about an hour and was not very good. If I'm paying $20 for a sandwich I expect a side to come with it. But no if you want fries that's another $3. We were asked if we wanted ranch and then billed for ranch. Will not be returning... place was a dumpster fire. read more

Decent food but the service is so slow it really just isn't worth it... I have been 4 times now on different days of the week and it was always slow but today (Friday) was incredibly slow- we waited a whopping 2 hours for our full order to come out (1 item at a time spread over a 90 minute period after ordering), my son's order never came at all and we took my order to go because it came right at the 2-hour mark when we couldn't take it anymore... my son cried on the way home because he was so frustrated and hangry despite my wife sharing her food with him. We wanted to like this place so bad but it really ruined our Friday night. I don't normally leave online reviews but there's nothing like a really bad experience to light a fire under you! I just can't even imagine how it could take so long and zero warning from the hostess (despite the waiter telling us it's an ongoing issue). read more
