Restaurants near Cape Haze

“We took the water taxi over to Rum Bay Restaurant and it did not disappoint. Our server Debbie was so attentive and funny. It was happy hour and we got a bogo appetizer of conch fritters. There were 9 in an order and so yummy. I got the blackened tacos, my son got the Mahi dinner and hubby got the blackened grouper. Everything was presented wonderfully and so very tasty. I can't wait till my next guests get here to experience this all over again. Thank you Rum Bay Restaurant. Hope to see you soon.

Vegetarian options: My son is a vegetarian and this was a really good pick for his tastes.”

The owners will greet you with a smile and delicious food every time you go in here. If it’s on their menu just trust that’s it good. This is my favorite spot around for lunch around Englewood.”

The ice cream, cotton candy and snow cones were great. We visited both days of our vacation in May. Very cute and clean place!! Highly recommended!! We returned to Florida a month later and visited this place 4 of our 5 days in town! There’s so much offered here! Waffle cones, waffle bowls, homemade snow cones, sundaes, cheesecake, shakes, cotton candy, banana splits, floats…. I’ve never seen a “snack” shop offer so much!! Cute atmosphere, great prices, amazing service!!!”

“Happened on this cafe and so pleased we did. The cafe has adjoining rooms - one mostly with booths & a long counter and the other with tables & chairs. So clean and pleasant. The waitress went above and beyond with our menu choices. We were there about 2:30 and this is near their 3:00 closing, but we did not feel rushed. The waitress explained that they had been very busy earlier in the day, so there were a few items that they were out of, but suggested great substitutions. I really liked their breakfast and lunch choices.”

“My wife & I ate just days ago & was the worst experience in years, cod was Extremely heavily breaded, the mashed potatoes were actually barely cooked baked potatoes with the top mashed a little with a fork? The fries my wife got were undercooked and cool. I am afraid to complain too much as the cook has ways for revenge when he “fixes” the food & returns it. The waitress was fine. Never Again……..Never!”

“thank you for the great service Collin!”

“Hands Down the Best Neighborhood Spot: Neighbor’s Beer and Wine

If you want a place that feels like home with a heartbeat of genuine warmth, look no further than Neighbor’s Beer and Wine. From the moment I walked in on Derby Day, the energy was electric — hats, laughter, and a crowd that truly knows how to celebrate community.

The owners, Bill and Natalie, are nothing short of spectacular. They don’t just run a bar; they cultivate a neighborhood sanctuary where everyone feels welcome, appreciated, and part of something real. Their friendliness and personal touch shine through in every corner of the place — from Cheryl’s attentive bartending to Heidi’s legendary hot dogs outside, this team knows how to make an impression.

Under their stewardship, the space has transformed into a brighter, more inviting hub, balancing tradition with fresh new energy. The non-smoking policy inside makes it comfortable for everyone, while the outdoor seating ensures no one’s left out. Whether it’s watching football, throwing darts, or rocking the Kentucky Derby hats, this is where memories are made.

If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out on one of Englewood’s best-kept secrets. This isn’t just a bar; it’s a community experience crafted with heart. You’ll leave feeling like family — and believe me, you’ll be coming back for more.

I can't wait to go back”
