Over the past 30-plus years of living in the area, “Saltworks” has changed very little. The rustic interior is the same as it was the first day I ate that great hot dog and bowl of beans. Most of the pictures on the wall have stood the test of time. Over those same years, my life has enjoyed significant changes. I went from a deckhand at the local Sea Tow franchise to the vice president of Sea Tow International and spent my days traveling all over the United States. No matter how far I traveled, I never found another place like "Saltworks". In addition to the great food, it's a comforting place to have a meal. Over time I've had many a business meetings while having a burger or hot dog with some sweet iced tea and of course a bowl of baby lima beans. I gotta have the beans. Recently I took my 11-year-old grandson in for lunch. He holds the Guinness Book of World Records for being "the pickiest eater on the face of the planet”. But “Saltworks” disqualified him. He loved his toasted cheese sandwich and fries and demanded to go back as soon as possible. “Saltworks” has a character all its own. It’s a combination of great food and service and a relaxing atmosphere. It’s a place to talk about fishing or anything you want. When you go in to eat, say hello to Bob, the owner. But, he’ll probably say hello to you before you have a chance. He’s the guy that’s always on the grill making it happen. Get there early, because they close at 3:00 pm every day. Nothing's worse than getting there too late to get your favorite.
