Meet Chef Laura Horan

Laura’s style is heavily influenced by her Michigan heritage and deep roots in farm to table cooking. Her passion for locally sourced foods and sustainability is inspired by her grandmother‘s “waste not, want not” mantra which shows up in Laura’s execution in preparing dishes that consider minimal waste while maximizing flavor and artistic flair. 

After attending Secchia Institute of Culinary Arts, Laura took her career to the Pacific Northwest and worked at resorts in Sunriver, OR and Roslyn, WA as a Special Events Chef. 

Laura was lured across the country to our beautiful state of Maine after accepting a position with the Cliff House where she served as the Executive Sous Chef for many years. Laura joined the Buoy Shack team as Chef in 2023.

“In our industry food is always the constant, and is ever changing.  Mentoring, creating and the sense of community that this industry brings is what draws me in.” - Chef Laura 

Join us on 1/26-1/27 for our inaugural Chef’s Table!

🗣️Attention Buoy Shack Patrons!

We are working with the Town to expand our seating to accommodate our guest volumes and ensure a good experience is had by all. 👌🏼☀️🏝️

Join us in this effort by attending the public hearing at Kittery Town Hall on Thursday May 25th. The hearing will start at 6PM but we don’t anticipate our issue will be heard until 6:30PM. ⏰

If you walk🚶‍♀️🚶, ride bikes 🚲 or scoot 🛵🛴…your voice is really important. The seating allowance is based on parking - our guests that take alternative travel measures are unaccounted for and that is many of you!

Can't make it to the meeting in person?
Show your support by writing an email to Jason and the Planning Board, jgarnham@kitteryme.org 📧

Let them know that we are an asset to the community and a good neighbor. Spread the word! 📢

🅿️ Remember extra parking is located at Foreside Family Dental 📍12 Newmarch Street

Thank you for your help! 🙏🏻
