Our Story

The
Story of

The Blind Pelican

During the summer of 2015, Andrew & Nikki Stafford enjoyed an afternoon of sea kayaking in the Florida Keys. While paddling through the shallow waters of the magical mangrove canopies, they came upon a pod of pelicans…

Upon returning home to NC, Andrew decided to do some research. Andrew discovered the legend simply wasn’t so. In fact, pelicans have several adaptations to allow them to hunt this way.

Throughout the years, the story of “The Blind Pelican” always inspired Andrew. While thinking of names for their newest restaurant venture, he knew this had to be it.
