Excellent Food ! my husband had chicken and waffles. I order chicken fried steak scramble an a New York style waffle with vanilla ice cream and cool whip on top. All of it was delicious! I will definitely be going back!! read more

Very good breakfast! It came out hot. That's a plus! The coffee is strong! Yay! Big portions and great prices. Nice people. :)

I have not eaten here before, not even when it used to be the pantry I liked the menu, so I decided to do a DoorDash to my motel. Overall, the food was very good, it was packed well, and it came quickly. Unfortunately, the order came with no plastic silverware, no napkins, just the food. Did they not see that this was going to a motel? Fortunately, I had a plastic fork from another meal, and I just used TP for napkins. Please pay a little bit more attention to the details. I decided to go with the à la Mexicana omelette, which had spicy beef, cheese, salsa, diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, sour cream, olives, and green onions. Basically, a "taco omelette." it also came with jalapeños, but I put in the comments to please leave them out, and they did. To drink, I had a "Tutti Frutti", which was orange and cranberry juice, with Sprite. The omelette was very good. They were generous with all of the ingredients. I love a good "taco omelette", and this was right up there with others that I have had. The eggs were tender, the beef and the salsa had just a little bit of a spice, just enough that I knew it was there. I liked the sour cream And The lettuce and the diced tomato provided a nice "pop" of freshness. I loved the drink. The orange and the cranberry played very well together, and they didn't put in so much sprite that it watered down the rest of the flavors. The hashbrowns were OK, just generic restaurant hashbrowns, and I wish they would've given me a choice of the bread when I ordered. I would've mentioned it in the comments, but I didn't think about it. It was just your standard white toast. It was OK, but I would've preferred like a nice sourdough, or rye, or something like that. They have a lot of things on their menu, and I would definitely order from here again, either delivery or in person. Thank you. read more

Pepper's - Spinach Omelette, and Cinnamon French Toast - American Near Me - Arcata, California

Pepper's is one of those local diners you just can't get enough of. Close to our hotel and backed by great reviews, we decided to check it out for breakfast--and it did not disappoint. The menu is everything you want from a classic diner. Traditional plates, Benedicts, skillets, pancakes, waffles, omelets, crepes, cakes, pies--you name it, they've got it. Comfort food heaven that hits every craving. We ordered the California Benedict, which was spot on and cooked to perfection. Hashbrowns were that perfect balance of crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The California skillet was packed with crispy potatoes, bacon, eggs, and loaded with fresh, flavorful ingredients. Portions were huge and such a great value for the price. Service was friendly, fast, and welcoming. Food came out quickly and everything was hot and fresh. Overall, a fantastic breakfast spot--highly recommend if you're in the area. read more

Solid diner food, great service. I'm never disappointed by the quality of food or portion sizes.

Nice good old-fashioned diner near Cal Poly Humboldt. They have an amazing hot roast beef open-faced sandwich with garlic mashed potatoes. You hardly ever see that! The curly-seasoned fries were also really good, and the portions were great. Service was fast and friendly. Clean and well-maintained inside, too. We ordered the apple pie ala mode even though we were stuffed, and MAN, was it worth it! So good. We are from Silicon Valley, and this gem outshines the Palo Alto Creamery by at least 100 country miles. Worth the trip alone! read more

I rarely post a negative review, but last night was too much to keep silent. I ordered a Shrimp and Avocado Salad. There was half an inch of water in the bottom of the plate/bowl. The ranch dressing was runny, so it combined for a wet mess. read more

Worst food we have ever had. Burnt onion rings. Not a huge deal but the chicken wings were so burnt they smothered them i. BBQ sauce. it was a bowl full of sauce. Then after a couple minutes you could see a ring of grease around d the edge of the BBQ sauce. My husband lost his cookies before we could even drive away. Do yourself a favor. NEVER eat there read more

A tasty little place. We were exhausted after our drive from San Fransico and this place hit the spot. Good food and a nice glass of wine. Loved it read more

Great crepes with fresh fruit for the good price. Quiet diner to eat at.waitress took order promptly with friendly service.

This place is absolutely delightful. EVERY. Single. Person that works there is friendly. Like hug you and make you feel like you're family friendly. My husband had the steak and eggs an I had a classic cheeseburger. It was delicious. The fries were well cooked an crispy the way I lik them. 5/5 Our server as so dang friendly. To the point I gave Ave a tip that was half our $40 bill because she went above and beyond. This is the kind of place I like. Good foo and excellent service. read more

This is one of those reviews I was hesitant to give because I thought if too many people came it would change the experience. Since we have moved to Humboldt County, we have been here well over 30 times. I look forward to coming here, it is our go to place when we come down the hill. I have yet to have something bad here, and what I have had makes me salivate when I think about it, heck, I am getting hungry now. So if you want a place to eat in or near Arcata, CA. this is the place. In fact if you are on the 101 and you are between Crescent City and Garberville, you might just want to wait until you get to Arcata to eat. read more

Stopped in breakfast recently on a rainy Sunday morning and the place was busy. The interior is an old school diner, the old village pantry with booths and tables. I was greeted within a minute and seated at the same time. Service is friendly and professional with a smile. I opted for the Eggs & Bacon breakfast, three eggs to order with four pieces of bacon, hash browns and choice of bread, I went for the biscuit and it was a good one. Eggs cooked pretty close, a little over but close enough, the bacon was good and not to crisp, the hash browns plentiful and a nice crunch but could of been crispier and the biscuit was really good. All in all a decent breakfast and fair value, service was good and prompt. 3.5 Stars rounded up for the smiling staff. 00940 read more

Pepper's served classic diner food. Simple and made relatively well. My family ordered a variety of dishes and although nothing to write home about they all finished their meals. I ordered the steak and shrimp. I ordered my steak medium and it was cooked almost well done. Way over cooked. The steak was taken back for another to be prepared again. The steak came out and was still overdone. It had taken so long that I just ate the steak since most of my party was nearly done with their meals. The waitress saw how overcooked the steak was and tried to help as best as she could. If you like well done steak then Pepper's is definitely the place for you. Although my meal left a lot to be desired the service was outstanding. Viky was our server and she was polite, prompt, and very cheerful. Viky may be the best server I have ever had in my life. She is amazing and I would give Pepper's a second chance just because of the quality of her service. Great job Viky! read more

Pepper's - Steak and Shrimp - American Near Me - Arcata, California

Peppers has the best Country fried steak breakfast around! I always order it with the gravy on the side so that any leftovers won't be soggy when reheated. The gravy is traditional and yummy and it comes with your choice of egg, choice of potatoes and choice of bread with butter or jam. Soooooo gooood! It's also a really great price. This is a meal that can cover me for both breakfast and lunch for the day since there is so much food. Highly suggest for anyone who wants a "home cooked" meal to fill their belly read more

Good food reasonably priced. Good service. Very quick kitchen. There was a Kid hating karen who ruined the mood a bit but everyone was nice.

Solid breakfast. Eggs Benedict, fruit, and a cup of coffee. The service was prompt and friendly. The ambiance is classic diner. I haven't been here since it was the Pantry... apparently it's been a minute... I'm glad it hasn't changed much and still puts out good food. read more

The food is good though it's just a copy of the pantry in Eureka, which I highly recommend. The service is also incredible and they keep themselves clean read more

Three of us are on a road trip from Seattle to Modesto. We read the reviews and decided diner food was the choice for tonight. Large portions, good service, and tasty meals. Cobb salad, fish and chips, and grilled cheese and tomato sandwich. No one finished so consider sharing or ask for takeaway containers. read more

Although this place has a HUGE menu which sometimes makes me skeptical, the special of the day caught my eye at the door & all 3 people in my party ended up getting it!! The waitress who helped us out was so bright & kind & was constantly visiting our table making sure we were happy with our service & order. The steak was really tender & we ended up replacing the Caesar dressing with ranch (due to personal preference). I am 100% a ranch girl and this ranch was TO DIE FOR!!!! French fries were great quality & seasoned, which was a nice touch! Definitely visit this place if you've got a party who likes different stuff; there's so much to choose from on the menu! read more

Pepper's - Today's special: ribeye Caesar salad & French fries - American Near Me - Arcata, California

Peppers is definitely a diner experience. The service was friendly. There wasn't much ambience, but as I said, the service was friendly and made up for the plain decor. Our food was good, it was simple, but tasty. Our eight year-old granddaughter who is fairly picky loved her ginormous, pancake enough that she kept eating it even when we had to take a to go box for it. She ate it without syrup. It was so good. I had the steak and eggs and my husband had a three egg omelette both were good, my steak was not overcooked. our daughter had a chicken club sandwich, that was very good. our waitress made a Neapolitan shake for our granddaughter, even though it wasn't on the menu which was super sweet. it was a great fine on our road trip to Oregon. read more

Very extensive menu. Avoid exotics like stir fry and stick with the chicken, fish, or beef dinners, or one of the combination salads. Portions are huge. Very old school in a good way. Service was prompt and friendly. Prices are very reasonable. read more

Food was good and staff were nice. Went and sit down. Got our order in a and food quickly

My server was a sweet girl, loved her long platform boots, very nice. She brought me a to go cup for my shake.Great food!

I have gotten several dishes from Peppers and they are simply delicious. The only problem I have is the cost.

Vast menu (see photos as there was no on-line menu found). Really efficient and friendly service. We ordered to-go and took the order across town to eat and it was very fresh and delicious. (Packaging was all compostable material.) Among our breakfast choices, we had biscuits and gravy, the Acapulco skillet, chili and cheese omelet and the Tip-tip omelet. The chili cheese omelet was tasty and plentiful and came with hash browns and toast. The tri-tip omelet was big and meaty, but the beef was sliced thinly instead of chunks as I'd been expecting. My daughter and I shared this and neither of us cared too much for it. I was told that the Acapulco skillet was very good. The biscuits and gravy came with scrambled eggs (overcooked) and hash browns. The white country gravy had chunks of sausage links in it and the biscuits were ideal. The young woman who assisted with taking and packaging up my order could not have been more helpful or friendly. Plenty of parking, even for large vehicles. read more

The wife and I travelled a few hours from our house to an event and after a long drive I wasn't hopeful about being able to find some good food in a foreign place. Turns out I was wrong. Ended up getting a Cheese burger with fries and was pleasantly surprised with the quality of this diner burger. The Wife ended up getting Fish and Chips that ended up being way better than I expected (I didn't realize at first we were so close to the ocean). Her food certainly trumped mine this time. Her Fish was awesome and really something that should be tried. You could absolutely tell that this wasn't your run of the mill, out of a box fish pieces. The breading was awesome and the portions were great. They were out of the clam chowder she wanted but the salad was pretty good. both of us got fries that ended up not being my favorite but they certainly weren't bad by almost any standard. My cheese burger was bigger than I expected (big win) and absolutely tasted like it was flame broiled/grilled and also wasn't some lazily made burger. The portions were great and I loved the amount of toppings they included. Overall I'm glad we chose this place to order take out from. Definitely worth stopping at if you're traveling through, and if you're a local I'm sure you've already been here and probably enjoy the food. I can't quite speak to the ambiance of this place since the company we were with picked the food up for us but overall it was a nice dinner experience and I was grateful for the food after a long drive up the coast. read more
