    Punch
    Kissa D.

    We really wanted to experience the true Key West vibe, and Yelp recommended this place, so of course we had to try it! Parking was a little tricky, but we managed to find free parking for our golf cart, so we were pumped about that. We were seated near the band, and I immediately loved the music and overall atmosphere. There are chickens and roosters roaming around everywhere, which just adds to the quirky Key West charm. There are signs asking you not to feed them, which made me feel a little bad because they definitely know how to make you want to! We arrived just in time to make the cutoff for brunch, and I ordered the Rooster Special with two sunny-side-up eggs, hash browns, and banana bread. Everything was cooked perfectly, and the banana bread was especially good, soft, moist, and delicious. For a drink, I ordered the Heaven's Punch. It was a gorgeous color, tasted great, and fit the tropical atmosphere perfectly. I also loved the outdoor decor and the laid back, small town beach vibe of the entire place. It really felt like the kind of experience we were hoping to find while exploring Key West. The bathrooms were clean, and I even loved seeing the caged birds along the way to the restroom. Our waiter was attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout our meal. Overall, I definitely recommend stopping here if you're visiting Key West and want good food, live music, tropical drinks, and a fun, quirky atmosphere. Parking can be a little tricky, but once you're inside, the experience is absolutely worth it. This was one of those places that really made us feel like we were in Key West!

    We had dinner and Chris was our server. She was very attentive and friendly. All of us felt our dinners were delivered luke warm and not hot. Thus the star downgrade. My partner had the jerk chicken and it was nicely seasoned with rich jerk spices. I had the macro bowl which was largely a vegan dish. It was really nice for me. Others at our table had the barbecue shrimp which looked delicious but again was not very hot temperature wise.

    One of the best restaurants I have tried in a while. Those michellin guide restaurants are no joke! The carrot curry soup was so good, I ordered one more while I was there. The bbq shrimp appetizer with their mini corn bread was such a perfect starter. The main took a while but it was worth it when it came out. Jamaican jerk chicken - chicken was juicy and nicely cooked. The kicker was key lime pie. It was SO good that it would be criminal to not try it. They had live music going on. Very ocean vibes. Service was good as well.

    Banana Pancakes
    Molly S.

    Absolutely delicious brunch! So many unique options. I had my first shrimp omelet ever. Still thinking about it! The banana bread was amazing the banana pancakes were even better! The key lime pie was gorgeous. They had so many drink options. My sister had the key lime martini and WOW! It was probably the best one of the trip! The restaurant is outside but covered by trees so it was nice and shady. There are chickens running around which is just so funny and fun to watch. All of the staff were very nice and working very hard! Would definitely add this to your Key West places to go!!

    Key Lime Pie
    Diana L.

    I found this place after googling "the best key lime pie in Key West" and it absolutely lived up to the hype. We stopped by during dinner without a reservation, and the hostess let us know the wait would be about 15-20 minutes. Since we were only there for the pie, she kindly suggested we head across the street where we could order it without waiting. The key lime pie was a 10/10. The filling had the perfect balance of sweetness and bright citrus flavor, and the fluffy topping tied it all together. It was light, refreshing, and honestly one of the best key lime pies I've had. I found myself craving another slice just a few hours later.

    The vibes here are fantastic, from the eclectic visuals, outdoor atmosphere, and excellent live music with friendly staff! The menu is quite impressive, both for drinks and food options. Unfortunately though the food taste was just average. For the price and quality noted I was definitely expecting a more "wow" flavor experience and it fell very flat. We had different benedicts, and also tried the key lime pie (fantastic presentation, but not something I would say wowed me compared to others I've had). Overall if you want a unique place that feels like you're in your own world and can just enjoy the company and music, you'll enjoy your visit here.

    We have the boot (lobster) and Mo $31 great price. Huge meaty chunks of lobster and the to stow was thick and juicy also. Has the pecan pancake just one and it was the size of a plate. Cool Ambiance. Great outdoor seating and people watching. Brittany served us at the bar outside. She was prompt professional polite and great recommendations. Good drinks too. A try beverage artisan Make reservations or expect to wait.

    We had a great experience here, even if it did happen during a record-breaking downpour! The umbrellas outdoors held up pretty well I will say! Our waiter was amazing. Food was also wonderful. The key lime pie lived up to everything I heard about it! If there's a wait, there's a bar right across the street you can wait at. The bar is cash only, just a heads-up. So many great dishes to choose from! Everyone loved what they ordered. Definitely a must when visiting the island!

    This place is super unique. It definitely gives off tourist trap vibes but the service and the food are anything but touristy. In addition they have live music most nights and it was phenomenal. We got the jerk chicken, the shrimp, curry soup and the key lime pie. Curry soup was so good my husband had a second bowl and the key lime pie looked huge but I wish we had gotten two pieces instead of sharing. Overall I would go back and recommend.

    Lobster bacon tomato omelet
    Joan L.

    We went to Blue Heaven after hearing about indulgent brunch and some of the best key lime pie in Key West. One out of two was correct. The brunch was delicious. Both Husband and I ordered the special omelette, with lobster, bacon, and tomato. The dish was rich and delicious, with an entire lobster tail and plenty of bacon. To top it off, the omelette was accompanied by a slice of banana bread. We were not impressed by the key lime pie. Although the pie looks impressive, topped by a huge mound of meringue, it tasted a bit stale. Its consistency was heavy, and the meringue flavorless. Don't let the pie, however, stop you from going to Blue Heaven. The brunch is great service is friendly, and you can't beat the atmosphere, eating outdoors with the chickens and artwork. Tip: arrive early to avoid a long wait.

    Shrimp Benedict
    Javier R.

    Blue heaven is always great. Fun spot. Great staff. Lobster Benedict is always the best choice! Shrimp Benedict is also excellent. Arrival early if you going for breakfast. No reservations! Get a key lime pie!

    If you're in Key West and hunting for the ultimate Key Lime Pie, this is an absolute must! The atmosphere is so uniquely local--outdoor courtyard dining, live music, and roosters hanging out while you eat!! We grabbed seats at the bar for a quick stop and ordered a savory shrimp plate with jasmine rice, beans, veggies, and cornbread--super filling and delicious. But you CANNOT leave without trying their famous Key Lime Pie with the massive tower of meringue on top. It's rich, tangy, and 100% worth the trip. Loved everything about this place!

    A friend who has a home in Key West recommended this place. Said it was a must visit spot. Once I visited, she was very correct. She warned me that either you get there early or there may be a bit of a wait. We arrived around 9am, and there was about a 30 min wait. We had a table for 4, if you were waiting for a table of 2, the wait would be longer. The nice thing is there is a little bar/coffee shop across the street with seating. You can order while you are waiting for your table. The place does only take cash though just a small note. You are seated outdoors and surrounded around trees. It is so beautiful and so Key West. The food was amazing. They are known for their lobster breakfast items. I had Lobster and Grit. In my mind I was thinking little diced up lobster but no, it is a full lobster on top of grits and it was amazing. Brunch pricing is reasonable. I was also told they have the best key lime pie, while Its not really my thing, I imagine it is because it is huge and takes up an entire plate! This is totally a spot you need to try to get into if you are in the area.

    Ask the Community - Blue Heaven

    Non alcoholic beverages?

    Yes of course. They make special coffees as well.

    I'll be on a cruise is it within walking g distance from the port?

    Yes! It's a small island

    Can they accommodate large parties?

    They may however, the hostess was so rude and the keylime pie was such a let down. Publix makes a better pie. I wouldn't even waste my money

    Is it Pet Friendly?

    I would think yes because it's mostly outdoor tables but might be an issue because there are lots of chickens and roosters free roaming. I'd be concerned with that and chicken feces. Maybe give them a call directly.

    Does the pancake at Blue Heaven contain eggs in it?

    yes

    Do you recommend Blue Haven for Breakfast, lunch or dinner?

    Breakfast and dinner!

    Do they use fresh pineapple in the pina colada?

    I am not sure.

    How late do you serve breakfast on Sunday?

    Yes

    What is the wait like on a Saturday night? We're first timers to key west, only here for one night, and don't want to miss sunset at mallory square!

    I would call to check specifics. I believe they only take reservations for large groups.

    Do you take reservations?

    no they don't

    How do you make reservations?

    cant make them

    Is the outdoor are dog friendly?

    Yes.

    Where are the closest parking options?

    Petronia Street is a small, wonderful food corridor but parking enforcement will ticket cars without residential stickers that are parked in spots marked ‘residential permit.’ Parking is easier to find down along Irma Street, just a block away.…

    I stopped by Captain Tony's Saloon and it was such a fun, classic Key West experience…read more The vibe is exactly what you'd want, laid-back, a little quirky, and full of character. There was live music playing, pool tables, and even some video games, so there's plenty to keep you and the family entertained while you hang out. Kids are allowed in, but they aren't allowed to sit at the bar. It definitely feels like one of those places where you can lose track of time in the best way. They also have a merch area with hoodies, stickers, and other souvenirs if you want to take a little piece of the experience home. And knowing it's one of the oldest bars in the Keys just adds to the charm and history of the place. The service was quick, you walk up to the bar and order then find a place to sit. Super chill and laid back. One fun thing you have to try is tossing a quarter into the fish's mouth outside... test your luck and see if you can land it! Can't forget the drinks! The rum punch is to die for... super refreshing and perfect for the Key West heat. Overall, such a fun stop if you're in town. Definitely worth checking out! Fun fact: - it used to be a morgue and ice house back in the day. it also used to be the original home of Sloppy Joes, before they moved to Duvall St.

    We were with friends from CO who were visiting Key West for the first time. After walking around…read moreMallory Square and down Duval Street, we decided to have a drink at Captain Tony's before going out to a different restaurant for dinner. Of course it is an attraction because it is supposedly the original Sloppy Joes where Ernest Hemingway hung out. It is dark inside with low ceilings. People have hung paper currency all over and you will also see lots of bras hanging from the ceiling. There is live music and lots of people watching. We enjoyed our drinks and the fun atmosphere.
