Celebrate National Lighthouse Day all week long with Point Cabrillo Lighthouse! Join us at Fog Eater Cafe for a dine out event on the evening of Thursday, August 8th from 5pm-8:30pm! Fog Eater is donating a portion of the proceeds from all dinner sales that evening back to the Point Cabrillo Lightkeepers Association. You get to enjoy an incredible meal while supporting Mendocino's historic lighthouse. Fog Eater Cafe is a vegetarian restaurant located in the heart of Mendocino Village, inspired by both the hearty recipes of the deep South and the fresh plant-based cuisine of Northern California. Our produce is all organic, and sourced from within Mendocino or Sonoma counties. Their menu can be entirely vegan with gluten-free options, as well as natural wine, local beer and wine-based cocktails. Learn more at fogeatercafe.com What is National Lighthouse Day all about? On August 7th of 1789, the new United States government created “The Lighthouse Act”, signed by President George Washington, which established the Lighthouse Service agency to build and maintain lighthouses along the new country’s shores. On the same date in 1989, 200 years later, National Lighthouse Day was turned into a national holiday on August 7th, with a proclamation signed by President George H. W. Bush.
