HOOK & COOK · SAN CLEMENTE PIER
A new chapter.
A familiar feeling.
Meet Nicholas and Lauren Rivard, local owners of Hook & Cook. A new chapter for the San Clemente Pier’s former Snack Shack, with food, bait and tackle.
LOCAL OWNERS. SAME LOVE FOR THE PIER.
Meet the Rivards.
Nicholas and Lauren Rivard are San Clemente locals and the owners behind Hook & Cook.
The City selected their proposal to operate the end-of-pier concession, bringing food, bait and tackle back to the former Snack Shack space.
Hook & Cook carries that simple pier tradition forward: a place to pause for a bite, pick up fishing essentials and enjoy being over the ocean.
The city ribbon cutting took place September 4, 2026. This is our little corner of San Clemente—and we’re glad you found it.

OUR WAY OF LIFE
Ocean infused, flavor driven.
Breakfast before a cast. Lobster rolls after a stroll. Shave ice on a bright afternoon. Food and fishing, together at the end of the San Clemente Pier.
