Big Boat Cafe

05/31/2026

Well friends......we gave Fridays a little test sail this May at Big Boat Café.
After a month of testing the waters and seeing all of your friendly faces, we've decided to dock our Friday hours for now and stick with our regular schedule (Saturday's and Sunday's 8a-3p) for now as we head into the busy summer season and focus on making the most of our core operating days.
BUT -- never say never! We may bring Fridays back later this summer when the days are longer, the weather is warmer, and everyone is in full summer mode!
Thank you so much for all of the support, encouragement, coffee runs, and smiling faces. We appreciate this community more than you know!

Mother Nature has other plans for us today! With heavy rain and high winds in the forecast, Big Boat Cafe will be closing at noon (12) for the safety of the chef 🥹 and our customers. 🌧️ 🌧️ 💨 💨 We’re hoping for calmer waters and clearer skies. We will be open regular hours tomorrow, 8-1. Thank you all for your understanding and for supporting our little cafe!
