The Pelican Porch

Coastal comfort food served from sunrise to sunset.

Our Story

The Pelican Porch is a relaxed coastal café where locals and travelers gather for fresh flavors, strong coffee, and beautiful waterfront views. Inspired by the laid-back charm of Gulf Coast towns, our kitchen focuses on scratch-made dishes, seasonal ingredients, and recipes that feel both comforting and memorable. In the mornings, guests stop in for buttery biscuits, shrimp and grits, and locally roasted coffee while the harbor wakes up. By lunchtime, the porch fills with the aroma of grilled seafood, crisp salads, and hearty sandwiches. As evening rolls in, the restaurant shifts into a warm dinner spot where friends share coastal classics, fresh Gulf catches, and chef-driven specialties. Whether you're starting your day with breakfast on the porch or enjoying dinner as the sun sets over the water, The Pelican Porch is all about good food, good company, and the simple joy of coastal living.
