Nature's Kitchen - Yreka, California

Absolutley LOVED this place! A friend and I were meeting for lunch and to catch up with each other - we got there at 10am and told the owner/wait person that we might be there several hours. She was delightful and said we were welcome to stay all day if we wanted but they do close at 5pm and we would need to leave then. 😄
We ordered lunch, then stayed and talked over tea until 2pm!
The place filled up around noon so we moved to a tiny table so they could have our 4 top for more people.
The owner and the extra wait person were both wonderful throughout our visit.
I had the Asian salad with tofu and iced tea. My friend is vegetarian and had the spinach quiche with a very large berry scone.
My salad was delicious. The greens were fresh, and the toppings were plentiful. The dressing came on the side and was perfect with a slight sesame flavor.
My friend said the quiche was perfect and the scone delicious.
The atmosphere is perfect - a natural food setting, lots of plants everywhere along with fun and pretty goods and shatzis for sale everywhere, all with a light hippie vibe.
When heading to the loo I realized that the restaurant had an herbal type shop also that I wish I'd had more time to investigate.
If I lived in or near Yreka I would spend a lot of time at Nature's Kitchen!
Sadly I forgot to take food pics but did take a couple scenic pics behind the little "mall" - hoping the little town can fill those shops some day!

I love this place! What a beautiful and magical place to eat and shop! We found this place by a happy accident driving through Cali. The staff are so friendly and joyful! The decorations, the art, the food and the entire ambience of the place is amazing! I enjoyed the avocado and grilled cheese sandwich with tomatoe bisque soup, my hubby had the spinach and bacon quiche with clam chowder, delicious! And for dessert, a divine lemon bar! Everything was homemade and fresh, even down to the gorgeous flowers on the tables. Whenever we drive to Cali we will stop here every time! What a beautiful experience in every way! I even got a glittering sarong from India!

Definitely delightfully delicious foods including organic and gluten free baked goods! My favorite are the lemon bars and molasses cookies. They also serve healthy meals made with love! A wonderful ambiance about the place with friendly staff that treats you like royalty. The other side of the shop has magical herbs, potions, elixirs etc... knowledgeable and helpful people who really care about you!

Chicken wrap was insanely good, the clam chowder was superb as well. The shakes were good too, its just frozen fruit blended, which is what I like.

When I say the food tastes like home it brings me back to the days my mom made everything. So so delicious. Kid approved for even picky eaters. Cinnamon rolls and vegetarian chili ate too die for! Smoothies are also delicious! We had our little dog and they brought a whole table and chairs outside just for us. Absolutely incredible place. Staff are very nice. I can't say enough good things about this place.

A nice find on our road trip to California from Portland. We were glad to see a good amount of vegetarian and vegan options. Delicious food and fresh juice. The coffee was burnt and bitter, unfortunately.

We ordered the tofu wrap, portobello burger and tomato bisque soup for sides. The juice was a mix of beet, ginger and orange.

Totally come here! Sweet little spot, felt very local and full of love. The chicken wrap was flavorful and tender and juicy, and the Chile was tasty with the chips. We will be back next time we are nearby.

Wow, what an unexpected treat. Yreka is a town we’ve always bypassed, but we were hungry. This little gem blew us away. The service was most congenial, the food was outstanding, and there was live music at lunch! I had the organic chicken salad sandwich with a tomato bisque. It was better than I could have imagined. The music was fun, and the patrons were all talking to their neighbors. It felt like a party. We are passing through again in three weeks. Save a table for us.
