Cook 3 Lime Kiln Café

Lime Kiln Café is Roche Harbor’s local joint, located at the end of our historic wharf building surrounded by saltwater.   Lime Kiln Cafe opens early in the morning making donuts from scratch and serving a hearty mid-west style breakfast with crispy hashbrowns dripping with butter, fresh egg creations, famous thin style pancakes and iron skillet retro hash dishes. Then the café switches over to a café style lunch with burgers grilled sandwiches, fish & chips and fresh salads.   In the evening we make another shift change and serve authentic brick oven pizzas.   We use only the finest ingredients and are very proud of our wild yeast sourdough pizza dough.   We toss every pie by hand, top with fresh gourmet ingredients and bake or order to bubbly crisp perfection, Lime Kiln Café is also a great place to get a fast, substantial meal. All employees receive 30% off. Lime Kiln Café is a local favorite and bust year round
