“We went out on the 2hr tour. And it was EXCELLENT. We saw a dolphin right at the start of the cruise. Then, we went into a channel, and saw a few more dolphins, as well as several manatees. On our way back, we saw a few more Dolphins. The crew was so great. Thanks Dave, and Tracey.“

Next up was Cajun shrimp scallop pasta! Oh man- best we have ever had. Smooth cajun cream sauce over ample grilled shrimp and scallops and linguine. Yum!! Had the drink of the day- blackberry mule- perfection. Thanks SOBs for another fabulous evening!!“

“I'm a local and recently spent a fabulous staycation weekend at The Pink Shell with my daughter for her birthday. The resort is fabulous. Excellent service, beautiful rooms, awesome amenities. We dined at Bongos and Jon made our weekend even more special with his fantastic service at the bar. He's the best bartender on FMB! We love Bongos at the Pink Shell and can't wait to return.“

“Love what they're doing here. Feels just right. A little bit of old FMB. Beach, drinks, food truck, live music. Heaters on a chilly night. All great. Welcoming. Best place to just hang out. And dog friendly!“

“Heerlijk gegeten! 10 out of 10!! 🥰“

“Very good food and great service. The lounge singer was extremely loud and not that good. Disappointing.“

“Waitress was friendly“

“If you’re looking for a true dive bar experience, this place definitely delivers. The atmosphere is lively, unfiltered, and full of personality, with a mix of locals and visitors that makes it feel welcoming especially if you come in with the right attitude. Drinks are cheap, the bartenders (especially Tina) can be fun and engaging, and extras like karaoke or the occasional free jello shots add to the charm.

That said, it’s not for everyone. It’s cash only, which can be inconvenient, and service can feel inconsistent depending on the crowd or timing. Some guests have had less than great experiences with how situations were handled, so expectations should be set for a no frills, old school bar vibe.
Overall, it’s a fun, memorable spot if you enjoy dive bars and don’t mind a little rough around the edges energy.“

“Great spot to grab some tacos while chilling on the beach!“
