June at Ha’Penny

Lamb Chops, Pub Nights, Fresh Catch & Summer Evenings by the Sea

Summer has officially arrived at Ha’Penny, and June is filled with wonderful reasons to gather at the club with friends, neighbors, family, and fellow sunset lovers.

We begin the month with one of the season’s standout dinners featuring Honey Garlic Lamb Loin Chops on June 2nd, always a crowd favorite and the perfect excuse to make Tuesday night special. Served with dirty mash and asparagus, this is the kind of dinner best enjoyed slowly on the deck as the sky changes colors around us.

Friday Pub Night returns June 5th from 5–7pm with elevated pub favorites from Chef Ralph Motta, including sliders, wings, Bang Bang Chicken, shrimp salad, and sweet potato fries. Beyond the food, Pub Night is all about relaxing into the weekend with Giant Jenga, Uno, Open Mic storytelling about your next off-island adventure, and our collaborative Ha’Penny Vibes Spotify playlist where members help shape the soundtrack for the evening. It’s one of the easiest and most welcoming ways to experience the casual spirit of the club, so bring friends and neighbors along for the fun.

Fresh Catch Night returns June 9th with Coconut Ginger Lime Poached Fresh Catch served alongside jasmine rice, baby bok choy, and chili crisp, bright island flavors perfect for warm summer evenings by the sea.

On June 16th, we gather again for a comforting Casual Deck Dinner featuring Roasted Za’tar Chicken with couscous, sumac onions, and black garlic tahini, followed by Oreo Mousse Cake for dessert. Tuesday dinners have become a summer tradition at Ha’Penny, and we love seeing familiar faces gathered around the table week after week.

Father’s Day Brunch arrives June 21st with Seared Ribeye, brunch favorites, fresh baked pastries, and pie — because no proper brunch should ever end without pie. Whether celebrating fathers, grandfathers, brothers, lifelong friends, or chosen family, it’s a beautiful opportunity to show the men in your life a little extra appreciation while spending the afternoon together by the sea.

And of course, Steak Night returns June 23rd with Bacon Wrapped Filet Mignon, herb smashed potatoes, parmesan balsamic Brussels sprouts, and red wine jus, one of the most anticipated evenings of the season and always a favorite excuse to gather a full table of friends.

We’ll close the month on June 30th with Orange Bourbon Glazed Cornish Hen, wild rice pilaf, sautéed asparagus, and Lemon Raspberry Bars as we settle fully into the easy rhythm of summer at the club.

Throughout the season, your support and participation help keep these evenings lively, welcoming, and thriving. We encourage you to invite friends, neighbors, and visiting guests alike and continue sharing the spirit of Ha’Penny together.

Takeout is available for all dinners, simply mention it when placing your order.

Please RSVP to Susie at ssheehanstx@gmail.com with your menu choice by Sunday at 9:00pm unless otherwise noted.


Casual Deck Dinner — May 26

This is one of those easy Ha’Penny evenings, uncomplicated, relaxed, and meant to be enjoyed at your own pace.

We’ll start with a Whipped Feta Dip and crostini, perfect for sharing and easing into the night with a drink in hand.

The main is Spaghetti with Clams, simple, classic, and full of flavor in that understated way that never tries too hard and always delivers.

And for dessert, Strawberry Cobbler with Vanilla Ice Cream. Warm, familiar, and just the right kind of indulgence.

A few reminders:

  • Please RSVP to Susie at ssheehanstx@gmail.com with your menu choice by Sunday at 9pm
  • Takeout is available if you’d prefer to enjoy dinner at home

Pull up a chair, stay awhile. These are the nights we remember.


Fresh Catch by the Sea — May 20

Some evenings at Ha’Penny feel especially tied to the water and this is one of them.

We begin with Cracked Conch, crisp and tender, paired with a spicy mango aioli that brings just the right lift of sweetness and heat. It’s the kind of start that sets the tone for everything that follows.

For the main, a Grilled Miso Fresh Catch takes center stage, served alongside a light orzo salad, charred leeks, and a tahini parsley lemon sauce that feels both bright and grounding at once. It’s fresh, layered, and quietly memorable.

Dessert is a Lemon Raspberry Posset, silky, citrus-forward, and just sweet enough to leave you lingering a little longer at the table.

A few gentle reminders:

  • Please RSVP to Susie at ssheehanstx@gmail.com with your menu choice by Sunday at 9pm
  • Takeout is available if you’d prefer to enjoy Ha’Penny at home

Come settle in. This is what May evenings are made for.


Steak Night by the Sea — May 12

There’s something about a good steak dinner that feels just right at Ha’Penny. Maybe it’s the breeze coming off the water, maybe it’s the clink of glasses as the sun dips low, or maybe it’s simply the pleasure of sitting down to a beautifully prepared meal among friends.

This Tuesday, we’re leaning all the way in.

We begin with a bowl of Smokey Asparagus Soup, finished with a bright touch of lemon oil, light, elegant, and just enough to wake up the palate. From there, the main event arrives: a Grilled Dijon Herb Crusted Filet Mignon, paired with rich Smoked Gouda Potato Au Gratin and shaved Brussels sprouts, all brought together with a silky tarragon béarnaise. It’s the kind of plate that invites you to slow down and savor.

And then, because we must, Carrot Cake with brown butter cream cheese buttercream. Comforting, a little indulgent, and absolutely worth it.

If steak isn’t calling your name this week, Chef has you covered. A Pan Seared Chicken Breast with jasmine rice, haricot vert, and a balsamic glaze is available as a substitute, simple, balanced, and just as thoughtfully prepared.

A few gentle reminders:

  • Please RSVP to Susie at ssheehanstx@gmail.com with your menu choice by Sunday at 9pm
  • Takeout is available if you’d prefer to enjoy Ha’Penny at home

Settle in, bring a friend, and let the evening unfold. Steak Night is always a favorite and for good reason.


Mother’s Day Brunch — May 10 at 11:30am

There are some days that ask you to slow down, linger a little longer, and gather close and Mother’s Day at Ha’Penny is one of them.

Join us at 11:30am as we set the table for a beautiful, easygoing brunch filled with all the things that make the day feel special. Think Lobster Eggs Benedict; rich, indulgent, and worthy of the occasion alongside Scrambled Eggs and a hearty Breakfast Hash for those who love a classic start.

From the chilled brightness of Shrimp Cocktail to the comfort of Bacon and Chicken Maple Sausage, the table will be full and inviting. There’s Avocado Toast for a fresh, simple bite, and a Sliced Fruit Platter to keep things light and colorful.

And then, of course, the sweet side, Cinnamon Rolls, Chocolate Pudding, and all the little moments in between that turn a meal into a memory.

Whether you’re celebrating a mother, remembering one, or simply honoring the women who’ve shaped your world, this is a day to be together.

A few gentle reminders:

  • Please RSVP to Susie at ssheehanstx@gmail.com with your menu choice by Thursday at 9pm
  • Takeout is available if you’d prefer to celebrate from home

Come settle in, we’ll have everything ready.


May at Ha’Penny — Settling Into the Summer Season

May has a way of easing us into summer here at Ha’Penny. The light lingers a little longer, the breeze softens, and the rhythm of the Club finds its stride again, easy, social, and just a touch celebratory.

We’ve put together a month of gatherings that feel true to the season, good food, familiar faces, and a few reasons to linger just a little longer.

We begin on May 5 with a festive Cinco de Mayo Dinner, full of color and flavor, the kind of evening that brings a little energy back to the table.

On May 10, we slow things down for Mother’s Day Brunch at 11:30am, a relaxed morning to gather, celebrate, and enjoy a beautiful spread by the sea.

Then it’s back to one of our favorites on May 12, Steak Night. Classic, satisfying, and always a good time.

As the month unfolds, we lean into the coastal side of things with Fresh Catch Dinner on May 19, bright, seasonal, and perfectly suited to this time of year.

And we close out the month on May 26 with a Casual Deck Dinner, simple, relaxed, and meant for easy conversation as the sun dips low.

Beyond the table, May is also about settling back into the social rhythm of the Club. For the summer season, if you have an interest in Bridge or Mexican Train, we’d love to have you join in, feel free to reach out to Herb Land or Francie Whittenburg.

And as always, summer memberships are still available. If someone comes to mind, bring them along as your guest, we’re always happy to welcome new faces into the fold.

Reservations for all dinners can be made directly with Susie.

Here’s to a month of good meals, easy company, and the quiet magic of Ha’Penny.
