The trade of saddle and leather craftsmanship was passed down through many generations. The Hamley history goes all the way back to England, but the American history starts in 1850 when William Hamley moved his family from England to Ripon, Wisconsin, where they owned a small leather goods store. “Parley (Pearce) and Blair (Woodfield) felt it was very important to keep the tradition of the company alive,” said Jan MacGregor, Steakhouse Comptroller. Whether it’s walking into the Hamley Café, which offers coffee, breakfast items and serves lunch, or having a meal at the Hamley Steakhouse, or visiting the historic Hamley & Co Makers Western Store, you will walk away feeling exactly like you have visited the old west. If you don’t visit during the Pendleton Round-Up, it’s easy to visit the museums, visitor centers and businesses and totally miss the old western vibe the community offers. It’s easy, driving along in your car, to completely miss the Western experience that is Pendleton. ![]()
