    Summer beer. Good live music. Shrimp tacos. What more do you need on vacation?
    Wendy C.

    This is a fun spot to stop for pub food, a cold drink and music. Moderately priced. No complaints - this is at the end of a strip of tourist shops.

    Seafood Platter, meh

    This review should be more like 2 1/2 stars but we'll go 3. Our first time here happened today on a day that the Sun peaked out on a weird January month. If you come here for music, hanging on the patio and drinks, you'll be fine. Beyond that if you don't drive then be safe an uber! The food we ordered which was Nachos, Chicken Tacos and their Fried Seafood platter was nothing special. Next time, we will not eat here. It's a nice option to hang in John's Pass to be outside and drink but that's it. It was full and we had to ask our waitress a few times about some requests we had including a to go box which we never got. Again if you plan on partying, please use a ride share!

    Malibu punch was awesomely tasty and fun!

    First of all, the music was good and fun. The DJ Monica knows how to get the crowd going! The food was excellent. We shared a seafood basket and a few margaritas. Don't skip this place when In town u

    We came here last night. We ordered the nachos and some drinks. Food was super yummy! My drink was too strong but the server gave us some extra mixer and fixed it for us. Plus getting to keep the cup is pretty neat! The live music was wonderful and put my son straight to sleep. Great end to our afternoon while on vacation!!

    Had a meal with my niece and my mother during my visit to FL. We were seated just before a downpour began and I needed my umbrella to walk from the paid parking area across the street. The ladies had already ordered their drinks and enjoying each other's company as I found them. We ordered the pretzel sticks and shared them with the dipping sauce. Great starter. The music was great beachside and the patrons as friendly as the staff. They move fast through the area and took very good care of us. I devoured their impossible burger and stopped myself from eating too many fries. Total bill was $55 and by the time we called it quits, the rain had wrapped up.

    Fun place with live music and decent beer prices. We enjoyed our drinks and listening to the live band perform

    Staying on the beach for a week so trying to go to all the local spot... I try not to go to John's Pass since it is such a touristy thing...but one time is ok. As far as hole in the wall establishments...this is a great one at John's Pass! It's on the far end and full of locals. Drink selection was not fantastic. But the live music was!!! That's what makes this place great. Problem with this beach town is the music all has to end by 9:30 - 10 pm at the latest. And parking $$$$$$$$! $7/hr. WHAT?!?! Take an Uber/Lyft and you not only enjoy without worrying about drinking and driving, you don't give whoever that money goes to the satisfaction of knowing they've pulled one over on you. 3 stars for the live music here! I did like my frosty Miami Vice - I'm not sure it had any alcohol in it, though.

    We sat at the bar as all the tables were full. Love music was playing and the crowd was singing. Kimberley C. took great care of us! We had drinks and fish tacos, and fish and chips. Both items were delicious. I would recommend going.

    I love that you can either walk up straight from the beach or dine in on a regular day! They have…read moreso many great drink options and a fabulous pizza.

    Wow. I expected more from a place rated 4 stars. To be…read morespecific we went to the beach bar because the restaurant wasn't open yet. The very first issue was parking. Parking is minimum $50 a day + fees. A cocktail? For an hour? Haha no. I'm being mildly disingenuous. The bar staff (and likely restaurant staff) will give you a QR code to validate all $58 of your parking. But it made me acutely miss a time when you could just park and patronize an establishment. Just don't forget to validate your parking, cuz they sure didn't ask preemptively. They were celebrating a 3-day grand reopening when we went on Saturday. There was *one* artisan in their market space. The music was pumping loud enough to not be able to converse. Although it drew a crowd of younger folks, there was not much to behold from the "grand" reopening. Not even s cost of paint. The beach bar may not have been part of the sprucing up idk, I didn't see anything worth celebrating. I meant to look at the size of the cocktail cup that we got (small), but $13-14 for a cocktail is highway robbery for the end result. And $18 for 6 wings ($3 a wing) was a little disappointing. I expected better of a Hilton adjoined restaurant. No one part was terrible. It was just the way they matched up - loud, expensive, small portions. If you're loud maybe you're cheap and tasty. If you're expensive, maybe you're fast and delicious. This was all the worst parts of a bar that doesn't care about its patrons' economics. A bar that wants to serve tourists with mediocrity and move on to the next crop of people who will never be there again. If you're a tourist it'll probably be fine, if overpriced. If you're a local, don't bother. To be fair, we should ask if there was anything good. hm ... no. We won't be returning. 3 stars is probably generous.
