This corner has been drawing people in for over a century. Originally the Cash Store in the early 1900s — a dance hall and watering hole beside the Ocean View Hotel — the building burned down in 1953 and was reborn in the ’70s as a beloved Big Creek Pottery outpost: a kiln out back, home cooking on the stove, and shelves full of handmade treasures.
Today it’s the Davenport Roadhouse, where the magic is in the mix — surfers, motorcyclists, farmers, artists, road trippers, and families all landing at the same place, drawn together by good food, cold drinks, and live music.
In 2025, we took over as a family after a lifetime surfing and exploring the North Coast. Our job is simple: honor the soul that came before us, and keep the doors open for whoever comes through them next.
