Café Marina & Woodley's Bar: Reviews & Ratings
Surroundings are beautiful if you like marinas. They recently remodeled and the restaurant seems more spacious. The food is pretty basic fare but is delicious. The service has always been excellent. Sitting outside in the spring and summer and early fall and watching the boats and birds and harbor seals is a true Humboldt experience that shouldn't be missed.
This review is just for the bar service. First, the view from the bar is great. Try Abby's creation, the Bourbon Honey Sour. It's special, have 2.
We only had drinks so just a review on that. Bloody Mary's and Hot Todd's on a rainy day. Not busy at all and we got a bar seat with a view. Limited bar but what we ordered they did well. Bloody came anointed with snacks, Toddy needed a bit more honey which they gladly provided. Looks like they are going through a renovation. Excited to see some new life in here! Service was great, attentive and friendly. The view is great from the bar, boats, bay, and the downtown waterfront. It's just one of those old places you want to see do well. Wishing you guys the very best and thank you!
Seriously easy four for breakfast. We stopped by on our way out of town and the plate is huge! Just look at that cell phone. Crazy amount of food and the hash browns were killer! Service was great and the gals stopped by often to make sure we were good. Next time in town we r stopping by for lunch! Great dock views!
Love sitting out on the patio overlook the marina and old town Eureka. The food was okay- my husband and I both had fish and chip- the batter was more like breading so it actually tasted like chicken strips. It was good but not exactly what we were expecting- I would eat there again though.
