On March 29th, Chief Provincial Health Officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry and, BC Premier, John Horgan announced new COVID parameters restricting diners from eating indoors at restaurants. For most restaurants in BC this meant a serious loss in business but one Penticton restaurant has continued to remain successful due to extensive patio dining areas available for customers. 

“The day-to-day hasn’t actually changed too much within the last month, the only thing we’ve really had to adapt to is the increased sales of to-go food and getting larger pushes on weekdays and weekends that have sunny weather due to only patio seating.”

Sous chef, Jaden Malek, has been the main leader for the Salty’s kitchen during these difficult times for the majority of BC restaurants.

Salty’s Beach House is very fortunate to have extensive outdoor patio seating available overlooking Okanagan Lake during the months heading into summer, where, in Penticton, the weather has mainly stayed nice and warm.
