Saltwater Cafe owner Tamra Hansen has returned to her roots with the reopening of The Pier restaurant, a venture she managed and part-owned over a decade ago.
“It is great for Point Roberts residents to have a place where they can have good food and a fun atmosphere.”
The Pier, located at the marina on Simundson Drive, made its culinary comeback at the Strings and Things International Music Festival.
Leading the kitchen is Cameron Calvert, a self-taught chef hailing from Point Roberts. Calvert has an impressive resume, having gained experience in high-end Washington state eateries.
“He’s remarkably talented,” Hansen said. “I feel very fortunate to have him as my head chef.”
The Pier offers a diverse menu featuring bistro-style meals such as steak, seafood, burgers and pub fare, catering to all palates. ‘“I want to be able to serve to everyone’s likes,” said Hansen.
Operating year-round like the Saltwater Cafe, the restaurant welcomes patrons Wednesday through Sunday from 3 to 10 p.m., with meals priced between $15 and $30.
Hansen expressed gratitude for her dedicated team. “I am lucky to have a very solid staff,” she remarked, adding, “We have some great seasonal and full-time employees.” Hansen is especially excited to offer a place that local residents can call home and looks forward to serving them great food and drinks at reasonable prices.
Looking ahead, Hansen plans to hold more events, including a musical concert later in the summer.
“With a great chef by my side, the possibilities are endless,” Hansen concluded.
