SoHum Chamber’s Featured Business of the Week: The Avenue Cafe

Southern Humboldt Chamber of Commerce

Every week the Southern Humboldt Chamber of Commerce features a business of the week. Starting today, we’ll be sharing their posts here to celebrate our community.

This week’s featured business of the week is The Avenue Cafe!

Many tourists and travelers come to Southern Humboldt just to take the tour through our giant, old-growth redwood forest. The 31mile stretch of the Avenue of the Giants leads you right into the cute little town of Miranda.

Located right off of Highway 254 you will discover where The Avenue Cafe first opened its doors in July of 2004, and has been thriving for the last 14 years!

This cute, cozy, inviting little restaurant, will welcome you with open arms and leave you walking away with a smile upon your face!

Mastering excellent service, delightful food in a friendly atmosphere, it is a wonderful place to stop and grab a bite to eat!

Offering a variety of foods from the menu, they serve anything from American style, Italian and even a touch of Mexican!

Whether it’s a fresh garden salad, a well-built sandwich, pasta, or the old-fashioned classic cheeseburger and fries, relax and enjoy a cold refreshing drink dining out on the patio!

What sets this memorable cafe apart from the rest, are their hearty breakfasts and being well known for having the best pizza around!

As you continue on your adventure creating unforgettable memories amongst our mighty redwood trees, stop in at The Avenue Cafe, any day! They are open 7 days a week from 8:00 am – 9:00 pm, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner!

For more information please call 707-943-9945 or email them at [email protected]

Thank you Avenue Cafe for providing a positive, dining experience for those passing through, and for our Southern Humboldt community!

Not just the best pizza around. The best pizza in the county, at least. Possibly the best pizza north of SF, maybe even the best on the entire west coast. Really, it’s THAT good.

I was born and raised in the NYC area, I know of what I speak. I KNOW great pizza, I LOVE and LIVE FOR the perfect pizza. I am a self-proclaimed pizza critic. I used to miss NY style pizza more than anything from my childhood – until I discovered the Ave Cafe a few years ago. Now I get it whenever I want. 🙂

You should try it. REALLY. Try it ONCE and you will be convinced.

Note that I am not associated with this restaurant IN ANY WAY, other than my *very* occasional visits (4 or 5 times a year), and my passionate affair with their *perfect* pizza. (For you old school NYC/Jersey Shore area folks, directly compares to Ray’s Famous or Vic’s Tomato Pies)

Try it now, thank me later. I’ll be the guy at the corner table with sauce on my face and cheese in my beard, unapologetically scarfing down my 7th slice with peppers & onions.

(And if the cafe owners want to give me a free pizza for this testimonial, I’ll pay anyway – just to ensure they’ll still be here next week.)

Wasn’t the Avenue Cafe used in the film “Humboldt County” for the final scene?

Anyone know what’s going in 2 doors down from it? Noticed there’s a permit request in the window looks like to serve food and alcohol.

Yes, this post is just over 2 years old, but perhaps now is just the right moment to bring the subject matter back to the foreground, so I will attempt to do so:

In these economically uncertain times here in Humboldt, our local beloved restaurants and their employees NEED OUR SUPPORT.

I have just confirmed that the Avenue Cafe in Miranda IS open and running for take-out orders (as of Wednesday, May 6, 2020 @ closing time (near 8pm), and they have been operating since the shelter-in-place order began.

Their employee who answered the phone tells me that they are not in imminent danger of closure, thanks to the local population’s support – but more business would be both welcome and well within their abilities.

I EMPLORE you, SoHum and Central Hum residents – PLEASE take advantage of The Avenue Cafe’s culinary expertise, and enjoy an unforgettable meal.

(Note that, in my opinion, they make the very best pizzas & calzones on the entire west coast. As far as I’m concerned, you’d have to travel to NYC (or *maybe* NJ) to get pizza as good. Trust me, try it and prove me wrong!) (Also note that I will be ordering a few pizzas from them tomorrow for pickup)

Please, support your local mom & pop businesses, both those currently operating and those whose reopenings are imminent.

Hopefully a few locals read this new comment on an old thread and send some business their way. They truly deserve our support, and I personally hope this post keeps them just a little busier over the coming days.

Our local businesses NEED our support. If we are to hope for even a fraction of “our world” to remain when we regain “normalcy”, we *MUST* support them – NOW.
