From July 2014 until December 2019, Debbie Pfisterer, owner of Oakland-based Blue Heron Catering opened and operated the much-loved Cannery Café in Hayward.

It was that first location that inspired the Cannery team’s vision of community in a lively gathering space featuring soulful, honest cooking reflected the bounty of the wonderful Bay Area food shed. We put value in our relationships, with local farmers, artisans and ranchers that shared our mission as well as with our like-minded customers, employees and community partners. As a green-minded business, it is our passion to practice sustainability and resource conservation, while providing a great meal, at an inviting location, for a reasonable price.

We are very excited and proud to share our vision and mission with local and surrounding communities and to be a part of the Castro Valley Marketplace.
