Tides Tavern – Gig Harbor (Small Restsaurant Category)

For the past eight years the Tides Tavern hosts an annual Relay for Life Spaghetti feed where all proceeds go to Relay for Life cancer research. The staff lends a helping hand by working the spaghetti feed, participating in the Relay for Life and contributing money to the cause. The community project really hit home when the Tide’s owner Peter Stanley was diagnosed with cancer. For the past eight years the Tides has raised approximately $40,000 – $50,000 to help in the fight against cancer and have set the bar for other restaurants and local Gig Harbor businesses.
