T’s Cafe

They are really nice and if you’re a vegan then your choices are limited anyway so I wouldn’t complain or listen to the complaints of a vegan. I had the crab Benedict and it was ok. Service is on point. The waffles looked amazing, wish I ordered them.

Awesome food. Even better though, was the amazing service. I didn’t catch my servers name last weekend, but she was the lovely lady with the purple hair do! I can 100% say that she was one of the best servers I’ve had in my entire life. So friendly, so upbeat, and truly dedicated to doing her job well. She was the epitome of how servers everywhere should be, but rarely are. So thanks to her for making Sunday brunch even more enjoyable than usual :)
Great selection of mimosas!
Overwhelming amount of food options!

One of our favorite breakfast spots. I had a veggie and cheese omelet and my husband had the pancakes and eggs. Huge, fluffy pancakes. The omelette was just as requested. They serve generous portions and everything was well cooked, well presented. The home fries were from fresh potatoes: crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. This restaurant is a converted Victorian home, elegant but casual. It can get very crowded on a weekend morning, but we arrived a bit earlier and were served quickly.

Our new fave brunch spot! So many options. The salmon bennie is the best I’ve ever had! The food was delicious and the service was great. I’ll be back again for more.

Swanky interior blending in historic photographs, spacious, light & refreshing. Four stars for interior and drinks. Three stars for food and customer service.
The Bloody Mary which is a old family recipe is delicious as well as the many cocktails. Live music is awesome on Sunday mornings.
My favorite breakfast is eggs Benedict but it’s very marginal at Ts, the muffin is crazy tough, so tough I could not cut through it, my fork even bent. I had to ask for a steak knife!!! After a few bites I wondered if I could digest it? The portion is also extremely small. I did enjoy the hash browns.

Have been here three times now for breakfast and each time it was fabulous. Excellent food, drinks and coffee. Service was also excellent. We have had French toast, corned beef hash, mimosa, Bloody Mary, and chicken fried steak, all were excellent! FYI Bloody Mary is Spicy!

I’m not normally one to complain or write a negative review, but my last several experiences here have been disappointing. What is going on with the breakfast potatoes? The last 2 or 3 times I got the home fries they were dried out, and tasted like old cooking grease. There was some weird hard chunk in them last time, so this time I ordered hash browns. The hash browns were an equally epic failure. They weren’t hash browns. They were smashed, greasy potato latkes that tasted like old cooking grease. I don’t understand why this is happening. You guys lost me, and I’ve been coming here since it was the Crosswinds.

This spot is going downhill. The front staff plays favorites obviously pandering for tips, changing what was once a decent atmosphere in to a crap show. The food remains ok. Service lowers the experience tremendously. 2 visits in a row, people that arrived after my party were given food before my party. Sad, T’s.

Had the steak dip, pretty tasty. The au jus wasn’t out of this world. The Red Eye Jedi was bomb but don’t get it if you don’t want dill on top. Service was good.

Eggs Bennie were great! Best breakfast place in town. Potatoes were chock full of flavor. It’s nice to find a place in Arcata that doesn’t kowtow to vegans.

We love T’s!!!
The array of homemade ingredients is not found anywhere else in Humboldt. They always have a great beer selection and if you don’t want beer, have a mimosa. They have definitely left the old crosswinds in their dust.
Hands down the best breakfast north of Solano Beach!

Their scrambles, omelets, and sandwiches are all great. The menu has a lot of inventive and fun twists on classic dishes. Large portions, and quality ingredients. They have fancy mimosas that they serve in Mason jars, which is amazing. The service was friendly and professional, but unobtrusive, so you can enjoy a romantic, quiet brunch.

Cute little café! Affordable, quick and a decent brunch place. My veggie omelette was at par with most brunch places– Gill’s by the bay etc. Gets pretty crowded. Biscuit was a «tough» cookie!

As a nerd level foodie, I search for great breakfast. The type of breakfast that inspires me, the type of breakfast where on a lazy Sunday afternoon, I can nestle in & order my fantasy meal, delicious coffee in tow, & leave utterly satiated. This place knows their eggs Benny like it’s their job, & breakfast potatoes, French toast, & scrambles. I’ve also caught sight of their homemade curly fries, which are enough to make me drool, even when I’ve already eaten my meal. & they don’t forget to add the most special ingredient. Love! I feel it! Do you?

Ehhh. I’m vegan so I would have to say not too many options. I got some sort of veg wrap with hummus for lunch. I love vegetables, but I felt like they overdid it and was eating a huge stack of lettuce with very little flavor. I ordered with a side of curly fries which was a huge amount. They were good, although a little too salty.
They have some things you can make vegan such as their omelets you can change to tofu scrambles.
Pros: cute space, mediocre chai, good service, waitresses were pretty kind
Cons: kids making too much noise banging toys on the floor, blehhh food

I went there three times. Both times the service wasn’t welcoming and didn’t come back for a while. I shook it off cause the food was good and I thought that they were just busy and weren’t aware (even though the second time there was only four tables filled).
The straw that broke the canals back was when my sister and best friend were in town for Halloween weekend. I had made a reservation for 10:30am that morning on the phone, cause I wanted to make sure that we all got to have breakfast together, and they said «okay, we will see you soon». We walk to T’s, and they asked us if we had reservation, I replied yes, but they said they don’t have us down and if we knew who took down our reservation. I told them I was just on the phone with them a couple hours ago, and they looked at each other and said we’ll be right back. Embarrassed already, we waited a good several min before they came back not smiling or showing any sign of empathy. They said we don’t have any record of you but we can set a table up in 20 minutes. We left right away and just went to Luke’s Joint, who always has great food and service.
I don’t mean to be critical, but I think that they really need to talk to their servers about what to do in these situations, and show that they care.

Food was INCREDIBLE! The stuffed French toast is killer! And the chicken breakfast steak, spot on! Good homey atmosphere, the waitress was so sweet, felt like we were at a friends house for breakfast. Highly recommended :)

Came in with a decent size group (9 – 10 people) for breakfast after visiting the local Farmers Market. It’s a beautiful house turned restaurant with a homey feel.
Food
*Good biscuits and gravy, hash browns and slightly dry ham.
*A fellow member of my party’s French toast looked amazing! Wish I had ordered it!
*Those mimosas though… Hands down my favorite part! $ 7-​$ 8 each, very reasonable, especially for the amount of champagne they put in them, I tried the blood orange and T’s shaker (the first one on the menu). I would recommend both!
*No complaints from anyone on the food, I’ve just had better.
(Review on the service, but not reflected by my stars) 2 out of 5.
Needs improvement. I would understand being cold and quick with us if it was busy, but the college kids are on break and there weren’t enough customers to qualify it as stressful. They had lukewarm water waiting on the table in colorful glass bottles, I appreciate it but we asked nicely for a glass of ice but just got a slight eye roll as she walked away quickly. This happened a few times i.e.- when one mimosa didn’t come with a straw we again politely asked, or when someone asked for organic syrup, she would do a slight nod and walk away in a hurry.
**I’m not one to remove a star based on customer service, many of the best food places have the rudest servers (but that doesn’t mean I won’t be going back because of it!).** This places wasn’t outstanding to warrant a cold shoulder. Based on the food: service ratio, I wouldn’t go back if I was in town. Time to try something new!

Delicious breakfast with the freshest of vegetables in my omelette!
Charming atmosphere where we enjoyed their house special Bloody Mary!

This morning was our first time at T’s. We were excited to try a new place. The restaurant is located in a beautifully restored Victorian. We were greeted by friendly wait staff and seated promptly. Water was brought to our table by a smiling busser and we were offered other drinks. Our waitress was attentive. She took our order right away. Except for the chilly temperature in the dining room (had to keep my coat on) we had a good experience up to that point.
Then we waited for what seemed a long time, considering that there were only a few other tables seated. I thought it was odd that on a Saturday morning there were so many empty seats.
When our food finally arrived, I was disappointed. I ordered the Combo Wombo. For $ 10.50 the single, buttermilk pancake on my plate was dense, flavorless and cold. My over-​easy eggs were also cold and the consistency of mucus. The single piece of sausage that came with my meal was unfortunately underseasoned and tough. I found myself pouring on pepper and salt just to eat it. We were also bummed that the sourdough toast that came with one of our meals was a single piece of skinny sandwich bread. We also had the biscuit and gravy, which continued to disappoint. The biscuit was heavy and flavorless and the gravy was begging for seasoning.
Although we enjoyed the décor (historical photos on the walls were great to see) and the staff was pleasant, the speed of the kitchen and the food quality could definitely use some improvement.
