Golden Hour at Saltwater Cowboys on Shem Creek

View of a sunset on Shem Creek from Saltwater Cowboys waterfront restaurant

There are only a few weeks of summer left. How are you going to spend them? And more importantly, where? We think there's no better place than Saltwater Cowboys.

The best nights start when the sun begins to set over Shem Creek. As the waters settle and the conversations flow, it’s easy to see that a creekside evening only really kicks off when your friends gather round and that first, ice-cold drink hits your hand. 

Whether you're meeting friends after work or looking for some zen, Golden Hour at Saltwater Cowboys on Shem Creek is your invitation to soak up every last bit of summer.
