About Kleins Coffee Bar & Grill

Perched directly on Runaway Bay Marina, this relaxed waterfront grill pairs breezy boat views with unpretentious comfort food. Longtime regulars drop in for mid-week steak nights—served sizzling on cast-iron plates alongside crisp chips and gravy—or Thursday pork roast crowned with crackling. Out on the patio, pints flow easily during Friday happy hour as water taxis glide past the jetty, backed by easygoing counter banter from the owner-chef.

  • Marina-Front Setting: Patio tables sit right along Runaway Bay Marina, offering front-row sights of moored yachts and passing water taxis.
  • Weekly Themed Specials: Crowds gather for Wednesday steak on iron plates, Thursday roast pork with apple crumble, and Friday happy hour drinks.
  • Owner-Run Hospitality: Owner-chef Gary runs the floor and grill with familiar banter, custom steak orders, and welcoming, old-school hospitality.

Before you head over

Practical advice on dining nights, waterside seating, and outdoor visits

  • Plan Ahead for Themed Dinner Nights

    Wednesday steak nights and Thursday roast nights draw dedicated local crowds, so arrive early or plan ahead to secure popular specials like sizzling rump and roast pork.

  • Snag Waterfront Marina Seating Early

    Outdoor marina patio tables with clear views of the moored boats and water taxi jetty fill up fast, making early arrival key for prime waterfront seating.

  • Mind Outdoor Pet Etiquette

    While outdoor patio seating welcomes pets, note that the venue requests barking be kept to a minimum in shared dining spaces.
