Sandbar: There is no question this is a gorgeous property with picturesque views. However, after being a frequent customer and referring all my guests to this location for the view, ambiance, and food, the service has unfortunately changed, filling the seats. Then, the clock starts to move people in and out with new bodies. Three seats were not filled at our table, so we were escorted with drinks and appetizers in hand to a small table. Other elevated bars are now open and provide quality food and drink steps away. Hopefully, the Sandbar can maintain a personal atmosphere rather than a manager/ host incentivized to move people in and out ASAP.

My wife and I came here on a very busy night. However, our host, Al, was very kind and helped us out and got us seated super quickly. The food took a minute but was well worth the wait, and there wasn’t much to complain about because the view is spectacular. Great service, great food, and a great atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back here if we’re in Clearwater again.

Fantastic views, great service, delicious food, reasonable prices, full bar. One of the best spots in Clearwater Beach. 10/10 would return.

I found a very nice bar/restaurant right by the sea at Clearwater Beach. I wanted to try it because it's close to where the kids play on the beach and for the view. I started with a Mojito, chips, and calamari. The chips and calamari were delicious. Then I had a chicken wrap, which was quite spicy; the server had warned me, but it paired nicely with the Mojito. Despite the crowd inside and the hot weather, the service was both friendly and fast. The atmosphere was great, and later the kids joined me, and we had a lovely time. If you want to take a break at the beach, have something refreshing to drink, and satisfy your hunger with delicious food, I definitely recommend it.

Came on Saturday and had fabulous, friendly service with Emily. Very attentive and sweet. Overall, the service was quick and the location and view were fabulous. Given the area, parking is sparse like everything else around so make sure you plan ahead or plan to walk. Great place to have a few drinks on the water.

Great atmosphere, food, and service. I had an amazing pulled pork on a bun with onion rings. Reef donkey to drink ?. Played some corn hole ? while listening to live music. Will definitely keep this spot in mind next time we are in town.
The view is amazing! Service was a little slow, and half of our food came out cold. Food tasted good though, drinks were strong and the atmosphere is great!

We really loved everything here except for the birds. Unfortunately, people were feeding the seagull while eating, and the birds pooped everywhere. Food was amazing, but the atmosphere was not appetizing.

Great lunch venue above beach, overlooking water/surf with sand at your feet & covered bar nearby. Good food, friendly, fast service if needed. But best if you have time to enjoy the view.
