Food scene
Tides Tavern has been around for a while, and although 21+ only, does a nice job with tasty fare and local beers In a rustic waterfront setting. Find a place out on the deck if it’s available. This used to be my great aunt’s grocery store at the turn of the century!

Just about the most amazing Vista for enjoying a pint that you can imagine…featuring Mount Rainier and the entrance of Gig Harbor sand spit. Limited inside seating, but more outside on the deck or down below in the grassy area, with gas fire pits during the cold months. Bring your own food from anywhere, they don’t have a kitchen.
