    BLT

    The best piña colada's and blended margaritas on the beach. Excellent BLTs. Very attentive, friendly service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And beautiful views of the gulf.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    We found a spot at the bar immediately, which was lucky because there were nonstop people coming up and ordering. We had the shrimp wrap, teriyaki sandwich, and a drink. The staff was friendly, and the food was good. We are staying at the Don Cesar, so we sought out some regular-priced food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was a nice walk down the beach to get there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Shrimp wrap

    The cheeseburger has always been my favorite but last time I tried the wrap with shrimp. It was very good also!

    Shrimp wrap

    Best place for tomatoes in the world. This place needs to be called tomatoes haven. Everything we ordered had an entire tomato on it. Even the wrap that we specifically ordered no tomato. The shrimp wrap has about 5 shrimp, 12 tomatoes, 1 gallon of sauce and costs about 15 dollars. Very not great with the flavor there. The nachos had a ton of chips, cheese, and you guessed tomatoes. There was probably 3 bites of chicken. Now why does this place get 2 stars and not one. Because, the view is absolutely incredible, right on the beach and amazing for sunset. Also when you order any alcohol drink they will DUMP alcohol in it. So that's a perk. Go here for a drink and a great view. Just don't go here for the food unless you need tomatoes.

    A side of pickles and chips + salsa (only vegan options)

    It's a fantastic beach bar. Delicious drinks. Kind staff. Fantastic New Years Eve party. It's a good one.

    This is a mom and pop type place located at one of the beach motels right on St Pete's Beach. Perfect for watching the sunset and grabbing a drink. The staff are all great- especially Cathy, Mark and Matt! The burgers here are PHENOMENAL! All the locals come here which is really telling. I usually end up eating two burgers because I just can't help myself. Burgers are definitely a must! If you are looking for other options I would recommend the fajita kabobs or nachos supreme. They offer frozen speciality drinks. I usually go with the Rum Runner or Bushwacker. Ask for a floater and they will top off your drink/ draw with liquor. @stl.foodie

    All of the drinks here are amazing, 2 will get you feeling great. The burgers, kabobs, and hot dogs are all huge portions. Best spot to chill on the beach and enjoy some drinks

    Cheeseburger and shrimp wrap

    Ultimately a decent beach bar that serves its purpose. Burger was (or tasted like) a frozen patty with a kraft single. Shrimp wrap wasn't spicy as advertised but both the burger and wrap were pretty good. We've eaten at plenty of beach bars and given the higher reviews, we expected a little more elevated food. However, the service and format of ordering at the bar and getting a buzzer was super convenient. Would go again if we had to eat on the beach. Would probably skip the mini bag of chips for $2.50 though. Overall doesn't deserve 3 star so giving 4 stars

    One of the absolute best burgers I have had to date!!!

    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.

We brought a cooler (and while I totally understand why those aren't allowed inside) the staff made us trek it a quarter-mile away to a random sign rather than offering a convenient solution. The real kicker was leaving: despite being steps away from the street, we were forced to lug the cooler back through the sand and around the building rather than just walking through the parking lot. The logic just wasn't there, especially considering we spent over $150 on drinks while we were there. It's not like we weren't supporting the business; we were happy to pay, but we didn't appreciate being treated like an inconvenience. Also, as someone who isn't a "hardcore" environmentalist, seeing the beach littered with plastic straws was disappointing. I thought I found shells in the sand twice, only to realize I was digging up plastic. Great spot for a drink, but be prepared for some frustrating hurdles and a lot of plastic waste.

Seating is seat yourself. Most of the seating is very tight/narrow and is about as wide as a hallway. The longue area is a bit bigger and more spacious but not great views of the beach or sunset. Bathrooms are by the longue area. Come for the sunset views and stay for the drinks/food. If your plan is to come to see the sunset, then you need to get here early in order to get a good seat. Two bars - one in the back by the elevator and one on the other side that faces the beach. There is a ledge type area that allows for more people to stand to look at the beach/sunset. We were told it's best to order your drink/food at the bar and then go sit down to have it brought out to you. Food menu is limited and pricey.
