Expected to Reopen Late Summer 2026
Since 1957, Walter's Restaurant & Bar has been a gathering place for the Claremont community. Following the August 2024 fire, we have been restoring and refreshing Walter's while preserving the character, traditions, and hospitality our guests know and love. We look forward to welcoming you back.
