Humbrews

Great beers and great food. Sat outside on the dog friendly patio. Elvis really liked it and gave it four paws up which is his highest rating. Service was excellent - friendly, attentive and quick. We had a Hefeweizen & the hazy IPA. Both were very good. I really enjoyed the Yumi hazy which was very fruit lemon forward. For food, I had the French dip & the Boss had the patty melt. Excellent! The onion rings were hot / just out of the frier. We also had a cup of the clam chowder which was really really good. Humbolt Brews is a super venue. Highly recommended. You should go!

Humboldt Brews is a great place to watch the games and have tasty food and beer!!! Definitely a must if you are in the area! The chicken and chips with the their own BBQ sauce is another level!!!

Great spot for live music! Friendly and attentive staff. Try the quesadilla!

The food was great, we had the Fish and Chips, Fish Tacos, wings and garlic cheesy fries. All the food was amazing. Server was friendly and attentive. There were pool tables and a large bar with good Beer and cocktail selections. We really enjoyed this place. Would definitely go back.

This place is fabulous. About a step up from a great dive bar, and I love a dive bar! Our server was a lovely man who’s worked there for 25 years, which I think says what a great place it is. We had a couple burgers and I was really enjoying how thinly sliced the onions and tomatoes were. Perfect to compliment the burgers without overwhelming their flavor. And there was an all girl punk band playing in the next room, that we could hear while we ate. Such a rad experience!

What a great place! We walked in and felt so comfortable and welcomed. Beautiful people, great music, outstanding food, and an incredible vibe! We will absolutely be back!!

My sister is in town so we decided to go out to dinner. We chose the right place! The staff were super friendly and very attentive. The food was amazing! The garlic fries were by far the best I'd ever had. My sister raved about the clam chowder and wedge salad. You can't beat the price! The atmosphere was great. Everyone seemed to be enjoying their meals and having a nice time. Very family friendly, there were kids playing pool.

I ordered the build a burger combo to go. It was cooked medium, perfectly, was packaged neatly, and the customer service was amazing. I would go here again. Slightly expensive, but it was worth it. Portions were on point, and service was great so it felt like a good value. The interior ambience seemed calm and inviting. Also, it was fast. Approximately 15 minute wait from order to ready for pickup.

The fish and chips are amazing, super crispy Burgers are giant, juicy, and filling! Fries are one of the best fries I've had! Soft on the inside but crisp outside Fish tacos are bussin too! Super good food, service was good, nothing to brag about but no real complaints. Atmosphere was a lottle.loud do to kids running around in a bar setting? Other then that definitely will be going back!

Came for happy hour. They had a concert later on so the food offerings were less than normal.

Husband ordered the NorCal burger and I ordered the Thai chili wings. The burger was lightly seasoned, the bun was crispy but nicely so. The fries were a bit too salty so I would ask for no salt. The wings were great and the onion rings were crispy. Nice place and friendly staff. Generous portions.

We passed this while checking out what is in Arcata. Stopped by around 4pm on the 4th of July. The outside seats were full so we ate indoor. The place is massive with lots of TVs towards the back. I had a Fall River Numb Numb Juice Hazy IPA which was like drinking a boozy juice rather than beer. My husband had the Deschutes Black Butte Porter which he described as good but not a typical porter. We had the Thai chili wings since their wings were described as "award winning". We inquired about the awards and we're quickly shown several plaques on the wall. I can see why it won so many awards - cooked just right. The sauce added a nice little kicker but not too spicy. (They had other wings that seemed spicier so I stayed away from those.).

The beers that we had were great. We started off with some fried mushrooms which they give you a very generous portion of. We were told that it would take about 30 minutes for our food orders to arrive but the mushrooms were at our table within 10 minutes. The rest of our food arrived shortly later. I had a burger and the wife had the patty melt. Both of these were good for a brew pub. Our fries were warm like they had been sitting out for a while. The server asked if I wanted ranch with the fries and I responded yes. When we got our bill we were charged for the ranch which we had not been told was an additional charge.

I was looking forward to trying out Humbrews again (after years of not going). And the atmosphere is great but there are some kinks that need to be ironed out. I ordered the half pound of wings which come with a side. The wings are tiny, like I have not really seen anywhere else. Which is fine- they tasted good. But I received about 5 wings which was certainly not a “1/2 pound.” I ordered a side salad, which came on the same plate and was also an up-charge of 3 bucks. Which was a surprise because the online menu said $2 and the menu I was handed in the restaurant said $2.50. I didnt mind the upcharge but pricing on the menu should be accurate. And unfortunately, the salad was warm. It should not have been placed on the same plate as the wings which sat under a heat lamp… It was about a 1/2 handful of greens and did not come with cucumber, cabbage, or croutons as stated on the menu. While the happy hour was nice (2 bucks off my beer) the entire meal was 24 bucks and disappointing.

The service at this place was pretty good. Our server was attentive and our food came pretty quickly. They were out of a lot of things, and also there was an employee (maybe?) standing in front of the bar, talking to guys smoking inside. I didn’t even know smoking in side a place of business where food is served was allowed anymore, but he happily finished his cigarette and no one said anything to him about it. It was super dark inside as well. We had a 7 top, which sometimes does have automatic service charge or tip included and I generally don’t mind that, but they didn’t tell us that until the bill came. Garlic fries came with what seemed to be a whole garlic bulb minced over top. Just wasn’t great or even average, food wise.

Sadly smallest pieces of cod for the fish and chips and they were served just this side of burnt. Messed up my husbands order with the cheese. Had to ask for tartar sauce. Won’t go back there anytime soon as our food was not good at all.

Staff was somewhat pleasant. My girl had their fish tacos, and has never had food poisoning until after consuming them. I don't think we'll ever eat here again.
