Our Story

It started with one Duffy

Nigel bought a single electric Duffy to spend time on Alamitos Bay. People kept asking how they could get out on the water too, so one boat became a fleet. The restaurant came next, on the very same dock, so the day on the bay never has to end.

The Look

Guests never wanted to leave the water, so we built them somewhere to stay.

The bay gave the room its look: hot pink and champagne gold, art-deco lines, a champagne wall, and golden-hour light off the water. It was built to be the prettiest table in Long Beach, and to make an ordinary Sunday feel like a celebration.

Where to Sit

Find your favorite table

From a fire-lit cabana on the dock to a velvet booth under the disco ball, every corner of the room was built to feel like a celebration. Here is where you can land.

Pink's Cabanas

Five striped cabanas right on the dock: private, pretty, and steps from the bay. Together they make the Cabana Garden, the seat for a celebration.
