50 Best Bars near Clearwater Beach

“My husband and I always come down to this hotel about 2-3 times a year and love it! Chair rentals, beach service, no car needed as it’s convenient to everything, & the ocean view rooms are great as well with good sized balconies! It’s right on the water and the Restaurant/bar offers great food and drinks as well! We love coming down and always enjoy our stay!!“

“We checked into the hotel and figured we’d go to the rooftop for a quick lunch because we were starved and it was right at the hotel. We didn’t expect a whole lot but what we got was awesome!!! We met Eric who is fabulous and we pretty well ended up spending the day and night there, (it’s not typical for us to hang at a bar). After Eric left, we met Tyler and Brandon. They were tons of fun, too. The food was fabulous as well and we had a blast!!! We went back the next night and we will be back again tonight! This place is great!!!!“

“I cannot say enough good things about this place!!! We'll start with valet huge shout out to Craig he was absolutely awesome and has amazing customer service. This place has a tiki bar live music a private beach that you can drink on with picnic tables to eat at. There's a huge stage that hosts live bands on the weekends there's a really nice dance floor with table surrounding it. There's a waitress named Kayla that was top tier. As busy as they were she made sure she was attentive alert and provide an amazing customer service I cannot wait to go back the vibe here and atmosphere is indescribable I will definitely be back“

“Jared is the greatest!! What a great spot to unwind. I will definitely be back for the Sunset Vue!! 🍹“

“Everything at Salty’s was great! From the drinks to the food to the vibe, we had an excellent experience. It was quite hot with the open to the outdoors setup, but we did visit in the middle of summer so I can’t expect much else in FL. Our server and the live music were fantastic as well!“

“If the bartender is going to be the fill-in barista, then they should be familiar with how to make basic coffee drinks. Might I suggest more baristas, so the bartenders are stretched thin and forced to fill-in. Otherwise, coffee was good. Food was mediocre.“

“had a fun time great food and drinks and servers“

“Such a fun spot in Dunedin. The staff is amazing and its always a great night.“

“Great place! J was awesome !“

“Wonderful atmosphere. Great food and a nice selections of wines. The service is among the best around.“

“Soooo much fun! Amazing food. Solid cocktail menu with really creative adult beverages. But I think the best part is that it’s a really great live music venue. With dueling piano shows on the weekend to all sorts of performances during the week, this is an great spot if you are a local. If you’re a visitor, I guarantee it’s a memorable night! Bring your appetite, and music list, you will not be disappointed!“

“Fun times and dope song choices at karaoke!“

“Beerbusters has a great vibe for all your moods. There are new beers weekly, so you can just sit there and watch the new crop roll in.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great place to stop in for lunch or dinner and a cold one !! Super friendly staff located in a private gated community Cove Cay, yet open to the public. Just tell them you’re going to AJ‘s at the gate. Beautiful marina waterfront views“

“Our team recently held a team-building and social event at Brewlands, and the entire experience was fantastic from start to finish. The planning process was incredibly smooth, and Sara Dauskart was outstanding to work with. She made coordinating our event easy by helping with scheduling, food arrangements, and drink tickets, and she ensured that everything we requested was provided.

The team had a wonderful time competing in darts and pool, while also enjoying plenty of great conversation, laughter, and camaraderie. The atmosphere was perfect for both friendly competition and socializing.

Brewlands is an excellent venue for group gatherings. There is plenty of space for people to mingle, relax, and participate in games, making it easy for everyone to enjoy themselves. Our team had a great experience, and we would highly recommend Brewlands for team-building events, social outings, or any group get-together. Thank you for helping make our event such a success!“

“My friends and I stopped by to pass some time after our cruise before catching a flight home. Little did we know we would have the perfect ending to our vacation! Half of our group had never even swung a golf club…. Brent was helpful and very tolerant of our shenanigans! He was willing to store our luggage, provided us a clean space to enjoy our lunch, and made sure we escaped from the pirate room in time to catch our flight!“

“Lots of great and unique drinks on tap; I try not to drink too much anymore, unless it’s something unique I haven’t had... Good atmosphere, friendly people, bartender seems to be a really genuine person, and their food is pretty good as well“

“Went here with some friends on a Friday night. They had live music and really nice dart boards 🎯 the place wasn't that big but it was the perfect size & very welcoming 😎 the main reason I wanted to leave a review was because of their food. I had their special which was a Prime rib 😮 with french fries on garlic toast, it was delicious, there fries are amazing. Everything that my friends had they also loved.. All of the staff were amazing very friendly. Even the cook came out and asked how we enjoyed our food. The prices are unbeatable. I had dinner and a drink for 20 bucks prior to going to the blind shark. We had gone to another bar and it cost me 30 bucks to have two drinks.🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤣😎..“

And professional all the way when needed, like flagging & carding young ones who come in...done with tact & diplomacy ( way to go Steph! ). A business friend of mine ( Scott D ) even thought you were the owner due to your demeanor, hosting talents, easy way, and that amazing professionalism...and smile!! Justin, Joey, Jenn, & Gi ( Giovanna ), the night staff, fantastic! Best spot on the peninsula thanks to all that I've mentioned and more.

He made us feel like he was a friend and not just another employee. Jacob is the kind of person that makes you want to come back to establishments like this because people like him make you feel so welcome. I hope he is here every time I visit because he is great.“

“We visited from New Jersey on our vacation. Awesome place. Wine is OMG out of this world. After a lovely wine tasting we left with 12 bottles. It was quite difficult not to open it on our drive home dealing with I95. I do so wish we had a "Miami Ave" in NJ. Thank you for a really terrific wine treat. We will be back !“

I almost didn’t want to post this review bc it’s the best kept karaoke secret and I didn’t want to let it out and get crowded but David deserves the credit. Bar is nice and clean with awesome bartender Maddie! Thank you!“
