So to start, thus place ain't cheap and the food is just okay. Food and drinks are pricey here. The service is top notch. Like really good. Why I am only giv8ng two stars is on their menu they have a Cajun ribeye. It is Cajun because it come with Cajun butter. I ordered it medium and it was cooked medium, but it was dry like it had started out frozen. It also in my humble opinion was not a ribeye, but a thick cut sirloin. My server said that was not the case, but I eat and cook a whole lot of steak and I don't think my pallet is that off. So there is that. read more

This is a comfortable bar & restaurant with good atmosphere and great service. The salmon BLT special and the Cuban sandwich were delicious!! Our friends loved their burgers. I could do without the sides though... black beans & rice were bland and Caesar was underdressed and underwhelming. They have a good cocktail & beer menu. read more

Three stars for the service as they seem to try at first but once we ordered it went downhill. We sat outside as it was a beautiful warm evening. After sitting down there were constant bugs and beetles falling on our table out of nowhere. Our server promptly informed us a card must be put on file before orders are placed. Once we did that and placed our order we felt forgotten as no one came back to the table until they delivered our meals. We ordered buffalo chicken wings which we moist on the inside and had a decent amount of sauce on them. Good but not enough to come back. The Cuban sandwich was subpar at best as it had little to no meat on it and was barely toasted as the cheese was no melted at all. We paid for the $3 up charge for seasoned fries. They were cold and completely undercooked. Getting our check seemed impossible as no staff had been coming outside and we were waiting a solid 20+ minutes after finishing eating. Safe to say we will not be returning. read more

This is one of the best places in downtown Saint Pete. Not only as the staff friendly kind and quick. Most of them have worked there for many years. The food is always made from scratch and fresh. Anytime I go I always feel like I'm a part of a family. If you have friends who like watching sports, they have several TVs on with different games going on. I highly recommend this place. It's a great place for everyone. read more

For a bar (and not for a bar), the food is stellar. Get the blackened mojo wings and thank me later! I love that it's always mood lighting and dim ambiance. The playlist always hits! I love their drinks. Service was friendly, but slow in a European way. The bar gives a lowkey-seat yourself-stay a while vibe. A good post-work hang! read more

Enjoyed dinner here on a rainy night. Service was great - got our drinks quickly & were by often to check on us & take our order - Edamame dumplings with a tasty slaw was delish! 2 people from our table enjoyed the Don Pollo sandwich, 1 person got the cheeseburger, & I got the coconut shrimp. We all enjoyed our food & drinks. Atmosphere is like a dive bar, dark inside & casual - great for us! read more

As other reviewers have mentioned, the BALD BARTENDER SO RUDE from the start. Have never been treated like this before and it actually felt intentional ..like he despised us. It's a horrible feeling! He avoided eye contact, ignored us and interacted only when we placed order and paid bill. Please avoid him at all costs - he's a disgrace to this restaurant and they need to address this. But kudos to the chef and the guy who ran our food out!!! The meal was good. read more

Another awesome trip to the Galley! Came with a friend who was visiting to watch some games and have some food/drinks. I usually stick with beer or seltzer here but tried a cocktail this time - it was veryyy strong! Their food menu is incredibly diverse - how many places can you get both cheese & steak fries and a fried tofu bowl? Our table ordered both and a few other things too! Service was great, ambience was good - not too quiet, not too crazy. My only downside is that it is always really cold in here so I have to remember to bring a jacket! read more

The Galley came highly recommended to me but I don't get the appeal. Upon entering, the male bartender didn't even greet me even though I said hi to him. That was my first impression. The Blackened Chicken Caesar Salad was mediocre at best. The vibe here is very basic. They do have Touch Tunes, which is the only thing I liked about this spot. read more

Not near the beach, no views of anything but a busy street, never the less was a busy place. We ate there- didn't have fish, but had corned beef and cabbage meal and a cheeseburger. We were dissapointed. The bartenders were attentive and nice- even though they were busy. read more

A big group of us last night. The food was amazing with unexpected combinations of flavors and textures and the drinks were great too. I also fell in love with the staff. I will definitely come back. tip: try the smoked bacon wrapped Oreos - surprisingly delightful. read more

The Galley is a great option for people looking for a fun casual restaurant / bar. The menu even has vegan options, which is great. The old time map on the wall in the back is amazing. Everyone should take some time to review it. read more

Searched around for a spot to meet a friend for dinner in a casual spot. Yelp guided me to The Galley and it did not disappoint. It truly looks like a dive bar as you enter, with a full maritime themed bar to the left, hightops in the center and a booths along the right wall. There were only a few patrons on this Wednesday, but it was only 6:30 and this is primarily a drinking establishment. Service was quick and friendly. The menu is pretty comprehensive, and as luck would have it, Weds is Prime Rib night. And Prime Rib it was! The fresh sliced steak was perfect - rare, juicy, flavorful. It's served with potatoes and a veggie, all for $16.95! This was on par with the best prime rib I've eaten. Excellent food and great deal. Certainly not white tablecloth service... but the food is great. And there's an extensive array of bourbon to sip, as an added bonus. read more

**** Review 149 **** While driving around, I decided to top in for a quick lunch. I've been here before, but it was a few years back and couldn't remember the food, just remembered that it was good service. The decor is cool, I think they were going for an old pirate ship style, with great music in the background. Drinks are pretty much what you expect for a downtown spot, but they do have specials. (FYI: the W-F specials start at 6pm). I ordered the Cuban Bowl, itms their take on the Cuban sandwich without the bread. The portion was more than satisfying. The pulled pork was on point! Over all, this dish was superb. The staff are really friendly and very accommodating. Now I was here for a late lunch, so it wasn't packed. Last time I was here, it was packed and their staff was still great. Some of their other menu items include fresh local Grouper, maybe I'll try it next time. Over all, I've had a great experience. I highly recommend it if you're downtown St. Pete. read more

Taco Tuesday was great! So were the boiled peanuts and margaritas. Will be back again for sure! Both bartenders were super nice and attentive as well. Nice quiet and dim lit atmosphere with all the local sports on tv. Check them out! read more

A welcome reprieve in the heart of St Pete. It's been a long day for this working mama and I needed some good food and some potent drinks. I came here on a Wednesday night, hoping for some prime rib. It was sold out in an hour and a half. I guess it's a hotspot how I never knew about it? I don't know....I had the calamari and the sweet potato and sausage soup instead. It was delicious and def a comfort food. The warm wood ambiance and great service made me want to come back next Wednesday and the Wednesday after. I popped in next-door for some espresso martinis with Bartender, Brian and enjoyed my time after a long days work It's a local spot with Saint Petersburg's finest at the bar, shooting in the shhhhh and joking about their business days I'll definitely be back to this spot, not only for the reasonably priced libations but also just for the good vibes.

Really cool vibes (great music playing), but the place needs some work. Staff was not very friendly. When I walked in I did not feel welcomed at all. Seats pretty much all had rips in them. Buttttttt, The food was great. Adult chicken tenders with Cajun seasoning were Beer was super cold and in Florida, cold beer is always awesome. I wish I could've given a better rating but staff and the appearance of the place needs a freshing up read more

If you want the best tuna burger go here! It was the thickest and freshest cut of tuna and cooked perfectly! All the other ones I've ever had were much thinner and this is a 10/10. I'm definitely going back to have this again because it was soooo good!! read more

1 star. An unnecessary sarcastic snarky attitude from the man who answered my question of how late the kitchen was open til when I called in. Unbelievable, I was reminded how awful some people are. read more

One of the best (if not THE best) and very shareable Cuban sandwiches in town! Easy, casual vibe and friendly bartenders make this a regular hangout for locals. Great selection of beers (with Mango Cart on draft) and special member discounts make this place even more of a hidden gem! read more

I love this place so much! They have great food and great specials throughout the week! Tuesday night they have a taco special, Wednesday night is steak night, and Thursday you can get 8 wings and 2 natty lights for $12! Plus, I always meet cool people while I'm there :) read more

Great food and drinks. Always consistent and the staff are cool too. 10/10 would recommend. read more

I'm honestly in complete awe of this place every time I come here. The food is phenomenal, and the service is unmatched (Juan I you.) I've been here 3 times in the last week, which is a very rare thing for me to do; and I've had everything from the surf and turf to the Cuban sandwich. Sunday hospitality night is a deal and level of quality you won't find anywhere else. Try ordering a ribeye and a filet mignon with grouper + a bottle of wine for less than $100 someplace else at midnight - I'll wait. In my opinion, this is the best food and customer service in Tampa Bay, undoubtedly, in Downtown Saint Pete. Ya'll can have all my money. read more

This is one of my favourite bars in downtown St Pete and I originally started going here often because they had "late night bites" which were delicious. I'm a fan of a late night cuban sandwich and the Galley always delivers. That and the bar is themed as an ol' ship galley. The food (outside of the late night eats) is also amazing. Can recommend the filet cheesesteak sandwich which is a step up from your average cheesesteak with the addition of filet mignon. There's also regular special menus for events which feature some more delicious items for a limited time. The staff are always friendly and professional. Shout-out to Brian, Cas, Chris, and Jason for always being amazing! read more

The Galley has surprisingly good food and drinks. I love the laid-back vibes here. This has been our favorite spot in St. Pete for years!

Swing and a miss. Was referred here by a co worker. He stated "really good Cuban, wings, coldest beer you've ever had!" The beer was cold on the first glass. Then it was ok. I ordered the fried Zucchini, very greasy. My wife got the wings, very dry, could barely taste the advertised flavor. I got the Cuban with black beans and rice, rice was very crunchy, I think over done. Cuban was ok on the first few bites, at one point hit a very dry, tough piece of pork, which wrecked the rest of the sandwich. I notified my friend "swing and a miss" and asked him if he was mad at me. Service was ok... just ok. The table next to us had the cool kids at it and got all the attention. I had asked both servers twice for a box and a bill. That for some reason took at least 15 minutes.... very disappointed. read more

This has an upscale dive bar feel and is just a block away from the strip of bars that can be more jam packed. It's a great place for a drink and they have an extensive menu. I had the tacos (pork, grouper, steak) for Taco Tuesday special. They were all good for the price. I've also tried their cuban sandwich, which is great for bar food. read more

We stopped into The Galley for drinks and a late lunch during our stay in downtown St. Pete. Our server was very friendly and attentive and we enjoyed the casual vibe here. We started with the Florida nuggets, choosing alligator (they also have grouper), which were slightly rubbery, but overall tasty. I really liked the cornmeal breading! For our meal, we shared the filet cheesesteak - so good! This steak sandwich is packed with tender filet mignon, shiitake mushrooms, peppers, and yummy melty havarti cheese. It also normally comes with shallots, but we opted to have it without. The sandwich was delicious with a generous amount of steak and a great Philly roll that held together well. We both rated it as one of our favorite cheesesteaks we've had! Overall, the Galley was a great spot to grab a drink and some yummy food. They also stay open late and have a late night menu if you're out late enjoying downtown and get hungry! read more

Andy made the most incredible grilled cheese and pork sandwich--crafted with love and serious flavor. You could truly taste the care in every bite. Timothy behind the bar was playful, welcoming, and nailed it with his recommendation of the blackened wings--absolutely delicious. Between the amazing food and the great energy, this spot is a must-visit. Can't wait to come back! read more

Fantastic food cooked with love. We visited The Galley while in St. Pete's on vacation and visiting wonderful friends. We order a large variety of appetizers and entrees and every meal was perfectly cooked, expertly crafted, and delicious. The fried calamari was exceptional, wings were moist and delicious, and our meals (tuna sandwich, Cuban, and super food bowl) were somehow even better. I can't say enough good things about the chef at The Galley. To fully compliment an excellent meal, the waiters and waitresses provided attentive and kind service throughout our meal. I also enjoyed the Blueberry Thyme Margarita which was outstanding. The drink was balanced in flavor and strength of Alto's tequila - delicious. Visit The Galley! You are missing out if you haven't. read more

I've been to the galley many times and I like it here. The menu is good with lots or options and they have a wide variety of whiskeys. My problem is the service. If you try to sit outside, even if they aren't busy, expect to just sit there or you'll have to go inside to harass someone. Most recent visit was Friday and no, they were not busy. 2 open tables outside when I arrived and multiple open inside. I sat at a table outside and watched a bus boy come out-but apparently not tell anyone I was there-then watched a bartender come out and help another table but look right past me. Then another table that was not being helped went inside and said something. Someone came out to help them but didn't even look at the other tables, including me. 15-20 minutes or this and I should have left but I was hungry, so I went and grabbed a bar seat. Shouldn't have to do that but it is every single time. Their table service is god awful no matter how busy or slow they are. So if you come and the sign says to seat yourself and you sit outside, give it 5 minutes and then go "check in" at the bar so someone recognized you're there. Otherwise you're going to die of starvation and thirst. Food is good though. read more

We stopped in at noon to watch a college football game and have a bite. It's a laid back, comfortable, almost divey place which was great. They seemed to have a number of good beers on tap (didn't have any - too early for me) and a full bar. The menu was a step above bar food with some good options. The downside, and the reason behind a 3 star rating, is it took 45+ minutes after ordering, for 2 cuban sandwiches and a bowl of soup to come out. Simply way too long. read more
