    On the water. Beer and wine. Paper towels on the table. Silverware wrapped in a paper sleeve. Real good eats. THE PROS: Food comes out fresh fast and hot. Sit dockside on the water or indoors in the funky cool little dining room. We sampled a fairly wide variety from the lunch menu. Conch fritters-sweet and savory with a thousand island style dipping sauce. Fresh not frozen. Also did the fish and chips and a bacon cheese burger. The highlight was the stuffed banana pepper. It had a spicy sweet sauce, but not really like an Italian pasta sauce. Stuffed with a spicy sausage. Amazing. THE CONS: Hard to think of any real drawbacks here. It's exactly what you expect from a waterfront cantina. Indoor/Outdoor patio style bar is located near the center of the seating areas, and because smoking is allowed you can sometimes smell it while you eat. BOTTOM LINE: Pine Island is know as Old School Florida, and the Ragged Ass Saloon fits in perfectly.

    They are open for carryout during the coronavirus. Special on pizza. But and XL and get a med for $5 with 2 ingredients. Pizza was good. Nice thin cracker crust. Good tasting sauce and really great service from the girl ringing ppl up. (Forget to ask her name). We came by boat and they had slips that were easy to get in and out of the boat. Fun find on our afternoon out of the house.

    This is a dive bar in St. James City on Pine Island. It's off of the main road and on a canal. Their menu says: Come By Boat - Come By Bike - Come Buy Beer Truly a no frills meeting of bikers, boaters and, when we visited, a mother/daughter duo that loves checking out all kinds of places together. Check out our "biker photo". This is a laid-back place to visit when you have time to chill and have no intention of checking the time. Come ready to go with the flow and enjoy vibe. They have covered outside seating, including a bar area. An open deck with tables and umbrellas near the canal offers views of boaters and the water and there is also inside seating. However, most if not everyone, was outside on the day we visited. We visited mid-week for lunch. The parking lot was only scattered with bikes and a few cars, so we didn't have any issues finding a spot. The menu seemed to have enough choice for everyone to find something. Mom settled on the Fish Bites appetizer. The fish had a mild taste, like Mom prefers, and she enjoyed her choice but couldn't finish the entire serving. I had the Thai Chicken Wrap. It included grilled chicken, lettuce, tomato and cheese in a toasted wrap with Thai chili sauce. The Thai chili sauce was decent and offered a bit different taste from the standard chicken wrap you find on many menus. Both were perfectly A-okay and we wouldn't mind coming back in the future. They serve breakfast daily from 8 a.m. until 11 a.m. and they have daily specials. If you want to know when they're having live music, you can check out their website: www.RaggedAssSaloon.com.

    Fantastic little dive bar. We stopped by early for a drink on our journey. Had a good fried seafood bar menu. Really good prices! Live music starts at 2 on Saturday. If you are on the island do it!

    I came here for breakfast after my dad's recommendation, so this review is just for breakfast, and not the saloon part. I've heard that it is the only choice for breakfast on that part of the island. The name 'Ragged Ass' makes my dad laugh and he says it's a very popular spot, especially among bikers on the weekends. He likes to come and get drinks while listening to the live music. I decided to try it out with him for breakfast. Slow breakfast crowd on a week day with two servers working. One was extremely nice and cheerful, while one seemed like she did not like her job. We had the not so pleasant server and our service matched her attitude. We had to actually track her down to pay our bill, and that part right there took 10+ minutes. She never checked on us and we almost felt like inconveniences. I completely understand slow island time service when a place is busy, but there were maybe 6 tables between 2 servers. The food itself was good and it hit the spot. It's a typical breakfast menu. I especially loved the home fries. When dining outside, be safe and put up the umbrella! Birds love this area and a bird pooped right on where my dad was sitting, but luckily the umbrella saved him. It's a nice view of the water and there's plenty of outdoor seating. Cute little gift shop inside with t-shirts, coozies, and things like that. Who wouldn't love a shirt that says Ragged Ass!?

    First visit, I'll be back. The atmosphere here is exactly what I like, lots of open air seating with seating right on the water. They let dogs sit with you outside. The food and drink are worth a trip to St. James City. The staff is friendly and the drinks are cold. If you like Tiki Bars, this place is worth a visit.

    I've been to many a dive bar (don't judge) and as the Ragged Ass goes it's not bad. The issues is the parking and the seating. On most weekdays no problems. On a Saturday it can be an issue. Parking in the street area becomes necessary. As for seating apparently someone reserves seats because when we went to sit we were told those are reserved seats??? I've been here plenty of times is this a new policy? Reserved seating? I went inside to get service because no one came to take our order. We asked at bar and were told there were waitresses outside. She was very friendly and did take our order. Throughout our visit we had to continue to go inside as no waitstaff appeared. Band on this day was so/so they kept pausing to decide what to play. I have been here when they have had awesome bands. I'm just confused as to what is going on here ... hopefully just a bad visit.

    Absolutely basic. Nothing special. Same boring bar food as every other bar. No complaint about service.

Most brunch place operate from 7 AM to 2-3 PM but The Brunch Factory open from 7 AM to midnight! Breakfast served all day! There are three separate area, "Outside bar", "Inside bar" and backroom. The backroom has Corn Holes and Dart Boards. It is designed for group gatherings. Live music is available on the weekend. The food was fine! I ordered an Uncle Larry Berries. What I got was fresh strawberries, blueberries, drizzled with raspberry sauce with power sugar and whipped cream over Belgian waffle. The portion is generous. The butter and warm maple syrup made this the best Strawberry/Blueberry waffle I had! Besides great selection for brunch, they have dinner items like BBQ ribs, Chicken Alfredo, ribeye steak, and others. Service is warm and welcoming. The vibe is playful, fun and up beating. It is not an upscale but local community minded facility. A great place to hang out with friends and family. I was impressed by the food and the atmosphere. If you enjoy brunch dishes and a lively atmosphere, you have to try The Brunch Factory!

I understand that this used to be a "biker bar", thus the motorcycle on the roof. The place is a little different. There is a full bar "outside", with lots of seating outside. There is seating inside, but it's mostly empty space. There are two "back rooms". One has Corn Hole and the other has Dart Boards. The food was okay. Service was okay. Pricing is a little on the higher side. Seems like a good place to hang out with friends for drinks. Maybe not for fine dining.
