"Yum!"
Really tasty food, served family style. There's a lot of logging equipment in the museum area, with some very cool pictures. The fried chicken is good, and the split pea soup is delish (and I usually hate split pea soup). Drive further down the Somoa peninsula (it's small, maybe 3 miles?) coastline and take an evening walk on the jetty. It's a fairly safe area, but lock your car just to be sure - there have been cars that have been broken into in this area.

"Samoa Cookhouse food is delish!"
For a wonderful home cooked tasting meal, Samoa Cookhouse is the place to go. They have very tasty hot meals. They can be a little pricey, but the food is very good. With a very laid back style atmosphere, it is great for family get togethers. The bread they have is amazing!! When you're through eating, you can walk around the building in a separate area, and it is like being in a museum. There are all kinds of antique items big and small. It is a great experience for kids to learn about local history after eating a great meal.

"Fun with the Family"
Built on Woodley Island in 1885, this is the last surviving lumber camp cookhouse in the West. Giant American breakfasts are served from 6:00 A.M., including biscuits with sausage gravy, platters of pancakes, and scrambled eggs. Lunch and diner are served family-style at long oilcloth-covered tables with charmingly mismatched chairs. Huge loaves of bread, cauldrons of soup, big bowls of salad and vegetables, baked ham, and roast beef are followed by wedges of homemade pie. Prices are quite reasonable and kids 4 and under eat free.
Even if you don’t eat here, stop in to see the free museum of logging quipment, artifacts, and fantastic photos of early days. A short walk from the restaurant is a quiet bayside village and a nice playground.

"Yummy food served family style"
I went to Humboldt State and this was always on the wishlist of places to eat when anyone came to visit. The food is excellent and plenty of it as it is served family style. This is "normal" American style fare that most kids like. It's not fancy and folks tolerate kids. The artifacts outside are interesting to look at as well. Recommend!
