One I saw the blonde bartender wearing a Philadelphia eagles sweatshirt cutting limes with acrylic nails and no gloves. She brought the container back to the bar, and when bringing the container back, coughed into the hand that was carrying the container. Two, saw the same blonde bartender open wrapped straws, and touched the top of the straws with her bare hands where peoples mouths would go and put them in the drinks. Lastly, I ordered a mimosa and the same bartender put my drink up, and then used the soda gun to top off my drink. I'm assuming it was soda water, so less champagne but still get the effervescence. Luckily, restaurant is interesting atmosphere and music is good. One woman wearing a plaid button down was extremely friendly to everyone and doing multiple jobs at once.
I have not had such great service in a long time! Lyndsey sets such a great tone right from the start. Always smiling and ensuring we are happy and taken care of. The food was good but I will absolutely be coming back because of her! Thank you!

Lyndsay was amazing! From the moment we sat down, she was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. She handled everything with ease, gave great recommendations, and made sure our drinks and food were perfect the entire time. On top of that, her positive attitude and beachy vibe fit the restaurant perfectly. Service like hers truly elevates the whole experience — we’ll definitely be back and hope to have Lyndsay again! 🌊🍹

Lyndsay was our server and she was fantastic. Food was great and a fun atmosphere. Great location to the beach and area hotels. Will be coming again and will ask for Lyndsay especially... Thanks SurfSide Tap House...

lyndsay- Absolutely amazing service. Our server was attentive without hovering, super friendly, and genuinely made the whole experience better. They knew the menu inside and out, gave great recommendations, and everything came out exactly right and perfectly timed. You can tell they actually care about what they do, which is rare these days. This was one of the best service experiences I’ve had in a long time—I’ll 100% be asking for them again.

Lindsay at Surface Tap House in Clearwater was amazing. She was extremely fast, constantly checked on us, and somehow managed to stay on top of everything even during a super busy night. We grabbed her multiple times to order more food and drinks, and she was gave us friendly, attentive service every time. Hands down one of the best service experiences we’ve had

Lyndsay was AMAZING! Paid so much attention to our table and truly felt like she cared about what we needed. Her energy was so high and it made our experience even better. Not to mention the food and drinks were amazing. I would definitely come back just to have her as my waitress!

Had a terrible experience. If you like rude servers/ managers and undercooked chicken this is the place for you. Ordered sliders they came out raw. Chicken fingers came out cold and undercooked. The beer was warm. When I told the manager what happened he literally waked away not even a sorry and never came back. We paid $120 for a couple of drinks and a pasta dish. Waitress was extremely rude. This place is bad.

Great casual spot with plenty of tvs for sports yet somehow didn’t feel loud. Audrey was our server and she was great - attentive and friendly. I has the wings - they were good. Next time I’ll ask for them to be extra crispy. My husband has the grilled scallops and they were delicious!

Came in great live music band bar was quiet to start TIM was AMAZING bartender… I have been in service industry for many years and the way he handled the rush that came into this place was very impressive. I sat by the service area where servers get their drinks from him he had at least 9-10 tickets and still managed to maintain a FULL bar keep the crowed happy plus his service tickets.. not ONE manager came over once during rush and asked if he was okay or needed anything or helped him. By himself alone TIM made bar drinks and cleared out all server drinks way to go Tim Best bartender def will come back again to see him. Ask for him!!! :)
