Great time sitting out on the patio - heaters helped stave off the chill. Staff was friendly and food was delicious. We got the cauliflower biscuit sliders, pistachio crusted tofu, and beignets. Left full and happy, and even considered buying the cookbook.

The food was great, service was good. However, I was APPALLED when the check came and they automatically added a 20% tip! The waitress even said to me they already added gratuity! I've never had that happen before and I travel quite a bit. Needless to say I will not be returning to the Fog Eater.

An absolute treat! Nothing like explosive flavors and bright, cheery vibes to lift the spirits on a rainy day. Best brunch I’ve had in years, hands down, I’m not veg but my partner is vegan, and we’re so grateful for the great folks at Fog Eater!

Charming & fun plant-based comfort fare: teeming with character (each crockery piece seems entirely distinctive), friendly service and a diverse yet reasonably-sized menu. Everything can be made vegan!
Brunch is the stunner - Sunday only but please get the cornbread French toast. The desserts aren't too sweet, the flavours are innovative and above-average, and the portions are a good size.

You don’t see vegan beignets too often and I was not disappointed with my choice to get them. The cheesy grits we’re also great. I just wish I knew about it before my last day in Mendocino. Everything here can be vegan so try it all!

A friend and I enjoyed the crab or patties, the hominy cakes with lentils and the pistachio crusted tofu. It was all delicious!
I was surprised by the complimentary boiled peanuts and was delighted because it was one of my favorite treats when I lived in the South.
Definitely recommend!!

We love Fog Eater!! What an amazing experience, the food was delicious, the service was great, and we were so happy to be able to bring a cookbook home to Canada! One of the best vegan meals we've ever had.

This was my second time at Fog Eater. It’s a must visit anytime you’re near the town of Mendocino. All the food is filling and the flavors are on point! Don’t say no to the Beignets if they suggest them, they’re to die for! Everything is vegan unless it has a poached egg. Dog friendly place
This place was a grand slam of an experience. My wife and I were immediately both super impressed with the charm of this cafe. The mismatched salt and pepper shakers, fun and vibrant colors, Nancy Sinatra playing in the background, and the ice cream parlor feeling bar facing the small kitchen. I kept feeling like I was in a Wes Anderson movie. My fried blue oysters with mashed potatoes were absolutely wonderful and flavorful, and my wife’s pistachio crusted tofu was also unique and incredible. We even got pie for dessert (which we don’t normally do) and were again, extremely happy with our choice. The whipped cream on top was fluffy and not overly sweet, the crust was flaky, and the caramel drizzle was rich and delectable. We left, happy as two (vegetarian) clams, and as we walked away, captured the night time quaintness of this side street gem. Thank you so much for serving us our favorite meal on our honeymoon. Can’t wait to come back.

The food is phenomenal! This is one of the best vegan restaurants I've been to in California, and the best vegan southern food I've ever had. This restaurant is a destination in and of itself. If weather permits, outdoor seating is super nice. The table next to the bathroom is not ideal.
Cute spot with delicious food. Pickled beer!!?? Yum!
