This is an amazing addition to Inn at 2nd & C and Phatsy Kline’s Parlor Lounge. You get a better menu comparing to other places, you can call it fancy, like Lamb Osso Buco or Poke or Bison Short Ribs, but it so worth it, especially if you are tired seeing only pizza places around while on vacation.
We tried 3 items from the menu (True Grits with Bkackened Rockfish & Shrimps, Lamb Osso Buco, Braised Bison Short Rib) – all of them were great and tasty.
The selection of craft coctails is great, not a typical “vodka-soda” bar! The On Tap selection of drinks is not that great, just 4 beers and 1 cider on draft, but well they are not about beers.
And the atmosphere is , so definitely recommend!

This was a great find. We first went to Phatsy Klines (next door, will review them as well) and went to their sister location next door to have a couple drinks. The bartender at Phatsys recommended the crab cakes and said the crab was very fresh. I personally do not care for crabcakes because they are always heavily breaded and have too much mayonnaise and that’s all you can taste. I have only liked them once in Victoria BC (Nautical Nellie’s). These were amazing! Super fresh considering the crab was alive less than a half hour before. I had dinner reservations else were but the next time I come back to Eureka, I will definitely return for dinner and wouldn’t mind staying at the hotel either (very vintage).

The tavern 1888 offers such a delightful food experience and puts the cherry on top of everything the historical Eagle House has become over the last several years.
The staff went above and beyond any dining experience I’ve had here in humboldt county. We were greeted several times throughout our meal for a satisfaction check by the host, general manager and even the head chef, John.
Because of the amazing things we had heard from friends that came the night before, we started with 3 appetizers. The beet tower had a more fruity refreshing twist than a usual beet salad, the duck confit gave us an opportunity to sort of sample the duck entree although there is a slight difference in additional ingredients and the braised ribs were friggin ridiculously remarkable.
My ravioli entree was literally the best damn raviolis I’ve ever had and even though I struggled on my decision over the filet mignon I didn’t regret it after trying this dish. Just wow. The combo of bolognese and pesto is out of this world amazing. My wife’s Lions main mushroom cake entree was delicious as well and is a great offering for those who don’t eat meat.
John, Jason, Jess, Veda and the whole 1888 crew, thank you for making our anniversary dinner with you so special.

Poke bowl and duck confit were both delicious. The lion’s mane mushroom cakes tasted strongly of rancid oil that overpowered the whole dish. They gave us $10 discount but it was a $30 dish and I felt like it should have been comped. We also ordered 4 cocktails, we loved the rose shaped ice cubes. Service was just okay.

Food tastes good and unique but is pricy, sauce and taste combination with lamb and pork dishes is a very good match, interesting local salad.

The atmosphere is incredible, the cocktails are skillfully crafted, the presentation is gorgeous, and the food is stellar. 1888 has quickly become my new favorite restaurant in Humboldt.

My husband took me to Tavern 1888 for my birthday dinner. We’ve always liked the
Eagle House, so, I was happy for us to try it. The atmosphere is beautiful overall, BUT, really dark which makes it hard to read the menu. We ordered a couple of the craft drinks offered my husband got the martini (asked for extra dirty) and I got the cherry sour. Neither of us finished either of the drinks. His had feta cheese in the bottom and no brine (so NOT dirty as requested) and mine was literally so sour it was undrinkable. There was NO definable cherry to it at all. Every sip felt like I just licked that puckering sour patch kid powder coating with NONE of the sweetness to balance or calm it on your tongue. Took maybe 3 sips. Not once were we asked if there was something wrong with the drinks. We were going to order the bread and olive oil for appetizer. (Classic) The server asked my husband if he wanted to add the cheese option to it. He said sure. We got it and found out that if you add the cheese they do not give you ANY olive oil. You get a lump of some tasteless cheese with some kind of onion mixture and a pile of bacon. It was not appetizing at all. For the mains, my husband ordered the scallops and I ordered the French chicken minus the pasta. I have to say that the mains were very good and we were relieved and very happy. For dessert we ordered a butterfinger cheese cake to share and it was lovely. All in all, not a horrible experience and good food if you know what to avoid. Stick with the classics for drinks (not the craft drinks – they seem to be a bit gimmicky and lacking in great flavor profiles) and keep it simple for the appetizers (avoid the additional options). Enjoy the on point main courses and the melt in your mouth desserts.

A great addition to the Eagle House “corner”. Drinks are phenomenal and food is good. Portions aren’t very big but presentation and taste make up for it. Great date night spot
