Trinidad Tapas Month is here! 🙌🏼

We bring you a trio of stuffed Black Mission figs from farmers Claudia and Von in Orleans - filled with a house-whipped herb and jalapeño goat cheese from Cypress Grove, and topped with a bacon & pecan crumble. Finished with a balsamic glaze and dried edible flowers from Chris Moore in Dows Prairie.

Gluten-free and can be made vegetarian!

Thanks to Trinidad Chamber of Commerce for creating this fun, food-forward event for all local restaurants to participate in. We love being part of this community!

Much Love,
Betsy ❤️

Today, we had the pleasure of receiving 64 pounds of Alaskan Sockeye Salmon from Craig Maclay and his daughter Lily (and their two dogs, Westley and Princess Buttercup) 😍

We have been working with the Maclays for over two decades, dating back to Betsy’s parents’ ownership of The Eatery. We have received both tuna and salmon from them over the years - fresh, smoked, and canned. 

Craig is a longtime member of the Trinidad community, raising his three children here, and showing them the ropes of the family business.

In their most recent foray in the fishing world, Craig has leased property in Alaska with the goal of acquiring Alaskan salmon from abundant waters and blast freezing to provide us with high quality sashimi-grade fish. While these salmon aren’t coming from our waters, we trust that Craig and his family are striving to source salmon elsewhere using sustainable fishing practices. We look forward to continuing our relationship with these well-reputed, engrained members of our fishing community and the Trinidad community as a whole, as they embark on this next chapter of their fishing journey 🙌🏼

Thank you Craig, Lily, and the rest of the Maclay family! You are truly awesome in what you do! ❤️

Much Love,
Betsy, Joy, and The Eatery Family ❤️

This is Ashley! With her partner Travis and their daughter Viv, they are Ashley’s Seafood - a family business dedicated to providing the community with the freshest, most traceable seafood possible 💙

Their ‘catch’ phrase is Wildly Traceable Seafood - a commitment to ensure the highest quality through sustainable harvesting practices. They strive for transparency in the industry, and their little family fleet supplies many local businesses and individuals alike.

Chances are, you’ve tried Ashley’s Seafood if you’ve visited the Eatery and opted for our Fresh Catch Entree or our Seasonal Fish Cakes 😍

Most recently, we have featured their Miso-Marinated Sable Fish, topped with Mycelium Mike’s Oyster mushrooms. They regularly supply us with halibut, albacore, and crab as well, fresh off the Aguero 🛥️

We appreciate you, Ashley, Travis, & Viv - keep doing what you do best!

Much Love,
Betsy & the Eatery Family ❤️

🍔 It’s NCJ Burger Week, and we are so excited to share this year’s creation with you 😍

Introducing the ‘Rock’ N Fish Burger!

In honor of our NCJ ‘Best of Humboldt’ win for Best Seafood Restaurant, we bring you this housemade Local Rock Fish Patty, fresh off the boat ‘Markit8’ from Joshua Auckland 🙌🏼

The patty is seasoned and grilled to perfection, then layered on a toasted brioche bun with a bright and savory celery & lemon relish, shaved local cabbage from Lisa Zierer and Willow Creek Farms, and our housemade dilly tartar. Served with hand punched fries or our seasonal Farm Salad sourced from Harvest Hub 🌱

This burger is one for the books - don’t miss it! Available for Lunch & Dinner, 7 days a week 👌🏼

Much Love,
Betsy & Luka ❤️

Meet Todd from Humboldt Bay Oyster Company!

Todd has been supplying us since 2023, showing up with fresh oysters in hand, and a smile on his face. Guests come from far and wide for these oysters, and we take pride on the freshness and proximity to the source 🌊

Todd has recently been awarded the Humboldt County Farm Bureau 2026 Agriculturalist of the Year, in recognition of his outstanding aquaculture practices, stewardship of Humboldt Bay, and his dedication to the industry. He has been raising shellfish for over 30 years and has been upstanding purveyor of his trade.

Thank you Todd for your hard work and commitment to this industry, and for bringing the freshest Pacific Petites to our tables.

We appreciate you!!

Hunter Appreciation Post ❤️

If you have been a guest at the Eatery any time in the last 9.5 (almost 10!) years, you may have been greeted, served, or generally charmed by this wonderful human.

This month, we said farewell to Hunter as he made a big move to Vancouver, BC to study. Our time with him has been nothing but an absolute delight, and while we are sad to see him go, we are so happy to see him embark on his next adventure ✨

Thank you Hunter for all of your years of dedication to this team and business, and we wish you all the best in your next endeavors ❤️

See you soon, and we love you!

Betsy, Joy, and your family at the Eatery ❤️❤️❤️
