Sea Level has been a long-standing staple in the area for over three decades. When it came time for the owners to sell, they had many offers. After all, it’s a bit of a local landmark! But they wanted to hand the keys over to someone who loved Sea Level as much as they did, and they found that person in one of their own employees.
Kyle Thomas had been working at Sea Level since high school, and it was his dream to own the beloved snack shack.

So when it came time to sell, they knew Kyle was the best man for the job. He purchased Sea Level in 2023 and has continued to serve all of the same menu items that have made Sea Level so popular.
Sea Level may only have a few picnic tables outside, but when this is the view... you won’t mind waiting for a table.
