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.
