The last time I ate here was 30+ years ago when I was a kid on vacation. I don’t recall how good the food was back then but it is definitely good now.
The ambiance is of a time long ago as old as the trees that went through the mill. The lady running the place has the hospitality of an idealistic Mom, welcoming to everybody who visits. The the food reminds me of my grandmas cooking. It’s all homemade: bread, green beans, chicken soup, potatoes and the brisket was some of the best I’ve ever had.
Definitely worth a stop if want to take a trip back in time and get some good old fashioned home cooking.

Located in a beautiful scenic spot. Museum and tribute photos are great! Food was average. Pretty sure they are experiencing the staffing shortage as wait times and frazzled workers were evident. Bathroom wasn’t very clean and needs some updates. Overall I’m glad to say I’ve been but probably won’t go back.

Great ambiance, feel of history… amazing staff , that’s the first impression.. the food was tasty as of home , nothing more nothing less , nothing fancy whatsoever. We went for a late breakfast, it was almost lunch time , but the kind lady chef prepared breakfast for us . Their biscuits and gravy is a must try . The scrambled egg was heavenly, sausages were perfect cooked , toasts were delicious. Buy their homemade bread . The staff who served us was so amazing and friendly. We felt like home ( we were the only customers at that time ) so they were able to take care of us . Please be ready to wait to get food , as it’s made fresh ..

Holy cow this place is good. They sit you quick, they tell you what they are serving that day, you say yes and they bring you your food. A dead simple formula that they nail with Laser precision. Our host/waitresses was amazing and friendly and carried the entire serving area with a smile. Are food was amazing and they had a good (small) selection of local beer. Would go again!

Love this place. It’s been about 6 years since last here, but the food and ambiance are great. Service was good, but only two people for a Sunday morning breakfast rush of at least 50 people. They were working hard.

I’m reviewing their service and the museum inside (NOT THE FOOD)
All the meals here have been served more than 105 years. I’m not sure how good the food are but they are very crowded. The little museum inside the cookhouse is so COOL, you will get to see how old days cooking material be like and more…
We were running out of time so we can’t eat but I’m sure the food is great and that’s why so many people came here. Also they only serve one dish each meal and it’s different everyday.

I have always loved this eating establishment since the first time I ever found it! Which could be twenty years ago! I know it has been there longer, much longer than that! I hope it stays longer!
Everytime I am in the area I try to go! I love bringing new people with me too!
Here is why: the staff are quite friendly. The place is full of history. It is clean. Food is delicious! There is no way that you will leave hungry! I am so grateful that I was able to go again! I also bought bread to bring home!

An old logger’s cookhouse that’s been converted into an eatery, features a very limited menu and quick service. The staff here are hard working and very nice, so be sure to have some patience with them.
I came in for breakfast and the food was great! If you want seconds or thirds, they are more than happy to accommodate. Be sure to buy a loaf of their bread (made in-house) and check out the museum featuring all sorts of turn-of-the-century artifacts from the building’s past.

If you have not been there, GO! Great food and lots of it. Family style dinners are amazing! First time I was there was about 35 years ago and I remember it well. So much fun with a group of people or just a few. It’s about $15-$20 a person as I recall, but it’s really good. I love looking at all the old pictures and stuff in their mini museum too! Check out my pictures! Can I get a thumbs up ? ! 🙂

Great spot to stop for breakfast with the crew on our last day up North. Eureka is a beautiful town and only made more memorable by by the beautiful people and the relentless cooking of a cook YOU SHOULD TIP 20 BUCKS AT LEAST EVERY TIME YOU VISIT. Delicious food, lovely staff, and theres a museum in the restaurant while you wait. Can’t say enough how much you should visit when in the area. Check out 40 oz to Funny Comedy and let us know where to eat when in your town.
