Spent most of the tour hearing from the owner about how his workers kiss every one of your beans that come from plantations where even bullets were found in the beans the workers sort in the factory. Not once did he talk about the exploitation cocoa farms have for children in the country of origin, inclu ding child slavery or slavery amongst adults, nor the companies commitment to working with farmers who practice ethical trade. That lack of emphasis of the dialogue regarding human rights leads me to believe that acknowledging humans rights isn't something this company has even with their own workers. A bunch of people come in for a tour and the cafe workers who are pretty new to the front area have to be in charge of seeing about 15- 30 different orders with in 5 minutes and the front stage who makes below minimum of the cost of living has to be left felling supported? I wonder if all the staff working for you have even been on a sailboat or own one? It's on your logo after all. Or is it a simple nod to the slave trade being the reasons you are a millionaire? I think it would be amazing if this company could make products that do not include slavery or mistreatment of workers.

On the day I was dragged into this establishment by a local, we were lucky enough to have received…read morea great experience. The line wasn't too long of a wait, despite it being busy and understaffed. They had a cute location, and I really liked the dark wood throughout. They had a dedicated area for sitting, and some things like board games available for groups to enjoy while sipping their beverage of choice. I got a mocha frappé and enjoyed it. It hit the spot on a sunny Eureka day. To my surprise, I got a freebie, with the barista making more than what would fit in the cup. The excess was poured into an additional cup, and given for free. That was awesome. Speaking of the staff, they were great. Despite being a busy day and not many people working, they pushed through and i saw them handle all types of attitudes and customers with great care. I enjoyed my drink here for sure.

They use the most fresh, quality ingredients. Everything is cooked to perfection. The staff is very attentive and friendly and willing to answer any questions we may have. Now what I also enjoy is the overall vibe of the place; it captures Humboldt's art style impeccably. Over the years renata's has not changed one bit in quality or in service.

I suggested the Slice of Humboldt Pie because I hadn't been there in a while. We had a great experience with comfortable ambiance to sit and talk. We stayed a couple of hours and enjoyed the fact that they have beer and wine. The savory hand pies combined with a small salad made for a great lunch! I know most people think of their desserts which our amazing but don't skip the savory pies. They have quiches, pot pies, salads and hand pies and then you can finish with dessert. All in all, I highly recommend stopping once a week or so! Or use their local delivery service to get it at home!

I love that this place has both sweet and savory pies!! I came here with my parents for dessert one…read moreevening and we each got a generous slice of pie (pictured). We tried the banana cream, peanut butter, and cherry pies. The slices came out pretty quickly and all were quite tasty. Unfortunately I was too full to finish my piece. The real showstopper to me, however, was the veggie curry pot pie that I tried later in the week. We ordered to-go so I didn't get a picture but that pot pie was awesome! It was super flavorful and warm and comforting, all contained in an individual sized pot pie. I would come back for that meal and to try more of their savory options for sure.

Their coffee was alright, nothing crazy. Prices were high for the quality. We ordered the burger two nights while in town, and they were completely put together differently the second time and it was not good. Sad since they're so expensive. Also arrived at 9am (when they open) and nobody was there. We waited 10 minutes before leaving and going someplace else which was so unprofessional. The space is cute, small and their baked goods were worth it. They've got the vegetarian market cornered in the area which is nice for them, but they service and quality could be improved.

Came here with friends before the weekend crafters faire opened, and I'm so glad we did!…read more It's not every day that I see a Croque Madame on a menu, so you know I just had to have that. Such a simple yet complex ham and cheese sandwich, and Cafe Brio prepares theirs open-faced, allowing one to enjoy the flavors of the multiple cheeses without everything getting lost between two slices of bread. I know I definitely enjoyed it! The only thing I would do differently next time is order an extra poached egg bc one simply wasn't enough for me. I love me some runny yolk, and I wanted more of it with every bite. My friends ordered the Brio Benedict and Eggs Brian, and I'm assuming they enjoyed their meals as much as I enjoyed mine bc they might as well have licked their plates clean. And in absolute silence, too! You know the food is good when the conversation comes to a halt and all you hear are occasional "yums" between bites. I look forward to returning the next time I make the five-hour drive to visit my friends. And I definitely need to work my way through their pastry selection bc everything in that case looked absolutely divine. Next time, I'm saving room for pastries. Or maybe I'll just order them to go bc who am I kidding?!

The frittata appeared made fresh, not in a pan baked that morning and then carved out. I appreciated that, and the lightly dressed greens and super sweet tomatoes that accompanied it. I had a golden milk to drink, which was good and unsweetened (which is what I want). I wish their chai had been house-made too, without sugar pre-added. Coffee was decent. The dining space has plenty of seating inside and out, and parking is plentiful and free in the downtown square. The shop also makes their own bread, which is good, and a variety of yummy looking pastries, many of which feature fruits in season.
