Very disappointed with my experience today. I have been enjoying Taco Salads at Clabber Girl for more than five years- it is the best in town! Only to find out that they have changed the portions. So, the salad I used to get is still $8.99 but it is about half the size now. The staff was friendly in trying to explain that it was the same portion but a different container, but it was clearly not.
Great historical place for lunch. Serves breakfast all day. Had the three egg omelette with meat plus a white chocolatej mocha. Awesome lunch for s cold day. It's great to visit and walk through the museum, too. A must visit for locals and visitors.
I love eating here or just hanging out with coffee and a book. Good atmosphere! Yummy food.
Our groups love it. The museum is an unexpected treasure that is impeccably curated and clean!! The cafe hours the spot and ideas gifts. And there are large, clean restrooms. I highly recommend it as a stop for groups and individuals.
Great historical museum. And some of the best breakfast and lunch food in town
Great staff! Quick unload. No on-site parking, pilot not too far from here.
Came in for some lunch and got the BBQ pulled pork and it was pretty damn good!
Loved the museum. So much history is wonderful to find. Great to peruse the many items for sale in the store. The employees were wonderful. . I asked if a lone t-shirt was available. She sent another employee to go to the back to find more sizes. She not only going more sizes, but more color and design choices! I highly recommend Clabber Girl as a stop for bakers, cooks antiquer's and history buffs. Their food is quite tasty, too!
A gem of history and heritage, along with delicious food! I ve had lunch at Clabber Girl many times, always a great experience. Recently I had the chance to try their breakfast and it was even better than I expected.
I ordered a veggie omelet made with egg whites, and I had only just sat down with my coffee before my breakfast was on my table. The omelet was heaped with fresh spinach and tomatoes. The biscuit was so soft, buttery and warm, probably fresh from the oven. Every meal tastes authentically scratch-made, like it s straight from grandma s kitchen.
Having all the black-and-white photos and historic artifacts in the dining rooms and the museum really completes the feeling that you ve stepped back a century in time. Really well done!
Maybe update your pandemic hours so other people like me don't drive out of their way to eat here. This place is closed right now.
Get down here to see and sign on door says museum and dining closed
Cool story and history of family and business. Museum was well done and a nice detour before or after a bite to eat. Had the Turkey Avacado sandwich and was fresh, nothing fancy, yet good...probably add some side chips to make the value better.
This was an enjoyable experience... interesting WWII home front exhibits.
We had an overnight stay in Terra Haute on a road trip and stopped here on a whim. The Clabber Girl bakery was exactly the kind of gem we look for on our cross country road trips! Friendly service and good food were great, plus the free museum inside was a perfect pit stop. We will never look at the baking aisle in the grocery store the same!
Had tomato soup and grilled cheese the grilled cheese was okay the tomato soup was not. It was thin not tomatoey had too many herbs and I didn't expect bacon.I ate with several other women and no one finished their meal. And no one particularly enjoyed their meal either.
The bakery was great. I tried the hot sandwich. The service was excellent. I highly recommend.
The environment is very nice and expected a lot. However, ordered a crispy chicken sandwich and it is processed chicken. Tasted like a Mcchicken sandwich from McDonald s at seven times the price (7.25 vs. a dollar), and the sandwich came with no sides. My wife left hungry. The soup I had was very good though.
This is a fun museum and gives a lot of insight on not just clabber girl today but since it opened up decades ago. There is a small cafe and shop along with fresh coffee and even over on one cooking. This place is great to look through and adequitly priced tours nomatter the size
I ordered the veggie sandwich and garlic tomato soup, it was delicious! I will definitely be coming back for more. The Brookie (brownie cookie) is also to die for as well as the Rex coffee. Such an awesome place in Terre Haute.
Fresh ingredients in breakfast items... coffee brand Rex is strong and original. Nice vibe in dining area as well.
Update: Getting frustrated with the small portion sizes for the amount. Got the Mediterranean flat bread and it was on a 6 in round pita for $6.50. I understand it's quality ingredients but it doesn't make me want to eat lunch here.
Best cookies in town straight from the land of the world's best baking powder. Their lunch menu is very good, I love the pesto sandwich. Great atmosphere inside, vintage and historic but modern. Cool displays of coffee machines and old elevators inside. Their Bakery is my favorite part, everything is amazing. You have to try the cookies, and little cakes. The first Friday of every month, they have a Chef's Night. It's a pop-up kitchen that has different category of food each time. I look forward to this the first of every month.
I love the atmosphere, food and coffee but MY WORD is the Wi-Fi terrible here. Awful coverage and the connection constantly drops, especially if you're in the north end of the dining area.
I love working for clabber girl!! We are like family and help each with our jobs!!
It's a cool place, but the food is not worth the money they are charging.
I ordered the breaded chicken sandwich, and it was just a bland, frozen chicken patty that they heated up with a grill press on a cold brioche bun.
The tiramisu was good, but not worth the price.
Their sweet hibiscus tea was very good.
I appreciate that they use paper straws.
Dirty, rude, and unhelpful. Foods was awful and rotten. I will probably get food poisoning from this terrible place. Don't ever come here. Ever. Please for your sake, stay as far away from here.
Cheyenne was AMAZING as are all the girls who work the counter
The museum was interesting. I was very disappointed in the "handicapped parking". The only area marked for wheelchair/handicapped parking, is in the parking lot across the street - across 2 lanes of traffic. There is absolutely no safe, reserved, curb side area for handicapped parking. I had a client with me that would have been in serious danger of being hit by a car if she had to try and get across both lanes of traffic from the designated parking area, with her walker! I expect more from a company like Clabbergirl. I circled the block several times, waiting for a spot to open up so that my client had a safe place to exit the van. The food was overpriced and incredibly lacking. Again, I expected so much more. It was over $10 for a handful of salad and 1/2 cup (literally) of soup. I felt cheated and ashamed of myself for paying so much. I will not return and I won't recommend the cafe to anyone. Its all hype and no substance.
We had our wedding rehearsal dinner here. Everything was wonderful and professional. We were able to use the eating space past the bake shop for the dinner and the museum for a cocktail hour after. The in-house kitchen is the only catering option. The food was excellent and the staff were very good. Meeting and organization with the management was a pleasure. They were really so nice and we had no trouble.
They had a good space to handle dinners of 20-80 people. We had about 40 and it was prefect for the Rex room. After dinner, it was amazing to have a cocktail hour in the museum. Being a Friday night, it was closed to the public, but we had access to the entire museum while we had drinks and desert. They set up a bar in the vintage saloon display. The displays and atmosphere are so good, that it was more than just a space to mingle. A lot of our guests went around checking out all the exhibits. They even rearranged some of the space for us, setting up tables for people to place their drinks or mingle around. It really felt incredibly professional and smooth.
If you have an event, this will be much more interesting than any restaurant or meeting room. And if you are just interested in seeing the museum, there is a great variety of exhibits about Terre Haute, the Hulman family, and the history of the area. It's not just about Clabber Girl baking powder, but its really worth the visit.
Unless I'm mistaken, the roast beef sandwich used to be made with the option to have Focaccia bread instead of the bread they force you to have now. Why they stopped serving it with this is beyond me because it was the signature trademark of that sandwich.
Combine that with the fact that the sandwich is now the size of a small fist and if you make it a combo, it comes with an undersized medium soda.
The sandwich is dry, the bread they use with it sometimes tastes like it's stale, and overall, it's just way overpriced for it being $10.00...
I've named off some things that are more so pet peeves of mine, so don't let my input dissuade you from going there--despite these illogical moves this place has committed to, it's still a good place to go and relax at. They have some great muffins and cookies, and despite having never tried their coffee, I hear it's great, too.
I just wish they could make the roast beef sandwiches the way they use to and also make their breakfast as good as it used to be back in the 2004 and 2005 years (it used to be great back then but since those days, they've changed how they cook their stuff, so I don't know what's going on).
Good historic building with great staff, food items, pastries, and one with good vegetarian options. Coffee is roasted on premise.
We enjoyed the museum and cafe. Very interesting and fun.
All of the staff are super friendly! The buildings are fascinating! The cafe is great! The museum is great! I look forward to coming back!
Great coffee roasted in-house. A nice selection of breakfast and lunch options, with daily lunch specials.
Decent coffee, great sandwiches. Plus, a little history and train set while you wait!
I always love going in for coffee and French toast very delicious but it's all the way in terra haute Indiana
Appointment at 230pm arrived at 8 am lesson is don't come till appointment time..
The coffee was just right and the cookies tasted like good quality ingredients were used .
Great food and museum. Spent a few hours there eating and looking through the exhibits. Nice!!
We love Clabber Girl but I was very disappointed when going in to get some history facts for a student who lived in Rhode Island. We had to mail out history things for him from our state and the day we were able to visit Clabber Girl was the day before everything was to be mailed to Rhode Island. It was 5pm and we had toured around the museum, we saw some people in the restaurant so we went in to look around. We saw some post cards and picked one up to purchase. The girl behind the counter told us they were closed, I explained to her that we just wanted a 50 cent post card and if she could just take the 50 cents for it. She told us no to come back, I explained that we weren't able to come back as we needed it to mail out the next day, she said I'm sorry but I can't sell it to you. It was just a 50 cent post card! If the restaurant was closed, we shouldn't have been allowed in there at all. We were very disappointed and didn't think it was a very friendly atmosphere. Leaving a note telling an employer someone wanted to buy a post card would have been against a policy of some sort? Everyone always has to make things so difficult.
Came into town my cousin brought me here. I made sure we came back 1 more time before I left. Really cozy, quite a really good place to hang out with friends.
Receiving entrance is off of 9th street
Shipping entrance is off of wabash
9th street is currently closed you need to go through wabash entrance to get to 9th go north on 9th and go right into receiving entrance
The museum is fantastic. It documents a long history of the Hulmans as they helped to make Terre Haute they city is today.
