Fogline Coffee
Coffee shop
👍👍 First thing on the agenda when traveling is locating good coffee. When visiting Arcata to run Avenue of the Giants found Fogline Coffee. It’s definitely worth a short drive to get a latte. It was delicious, so much so that I got a bag of espresso beans to go too.

👍 A cute cafe but no indoor seating right now. They had a decent amount of options that were supplied by the Wildflower Cafe but I didn't see any gluten free options.

Northtown Coffee

👍👍 Amazing people here. So we couldn’t decide. Oracle dog through the arch says, the ‘Cosmic’. And so it was: cosmic. It had shrooms! Just kidding it was delicious and no we didn’t hallucinate the wonderful bathroom mural of Gaia holding the world tree. But I had the compulsion to buy a bunch of...

Finnish Country Sauna & Tubs
Sauna
👍👍 We walked up without a reservation and were thankfully able to snag a remaining half hour slot from someone who didn't show up, I would recommend making an appointment though because they appeared to be completely booked and we just happened to get lucky. They explain how the hot tub is connected to...

👍👍 Familia Cafe is an awesome new coffee shop in the Creamery District of Arcata. I’ve been here a few times now and really enjoy their decaf espresso and decaf coffee.

👍👍 I'm going to miss this place. I'm in Arcata for a wedding and this place is just down the street from where I'm staying. Very friendly staff and good coffee. They also have a couple sugar free syrup options which is always a plus for me.

Riptide Cafe
Cafe
😠 My partner ordered a 12oz Americano for $3.50 and we paid $10 for it because we got short changed on a $20. We both realized it and asked about the missing $5 accidentally going into the tip jar with the $1.50 tip we left, but no luck. So it felt like we were Ripped off by Riptide. I don't think w...

Bayside Farmstead Café
Cafe
👍👍 Cup of clam chowder and seedy focaccia bread, local brewed Kombucha 16oz. If chowder is an art, this is a Monet, a Mozart. Thick but not heavy, flavor of the sea but not overly salty. Bread is life, quality of bread is quality of life. True quality, artists in the kitchen. Make sure to stop by and e...

The popcorn tofu was delicious too! In addition to this, their mango selection is the best I've seen in CA. When w...

👍👍 I was really surprised to find the quality of food they have here. I guess I usually associate hospital cafeterias with yucky hospital food. However I was wrong. Not only does this little cafe have hot, fresh organic delicious food. The prices are surprisingly low. They also use produce from their g...
