“First night in town and we choose this great Irish pub! We started with the grouper bites, very good and fresh! I had the blackened grouper but one end wasn't coated with seasoning and was pretty fishy tasting. My wife had the burger which was sized nicely and great flavor.“

“This place does not disappoint. You get what you pay for from service, to food and drinks. Make a reservation there was a line before it opened. Keep checking back online as it was booked two days before I went but the night before I was able to make a reservation. I can not say enough good things about this place. Best recommendation my exgf gave me was to try this place. 😊“

“Amazing community and a really great selection of drinks“

“I had a health concern happen while I was entertaining myself and the locals with some guitar music, good conversation and lots of pool games. I got dehydrated and the paranoia set in hard. Luckily these folks are good people and all my belongings were kept, safely. When I got well and was able to retrieve them. I was well cared for and never made to feel unwelcome though I’m afraid I might have made a fool of myself. Maybe again some day without the dehydration? I hope so!“

“Highly recommend! The drinks and Açaí bowl are amazing. Fresh fruits and very good!“

“Back Alley is my favorite shop at my favorite beach. Its usually an every day stop while we're staying on the island. The coffee is always fantastic and I find the best souvenirs there. I especially love drinking coffee from my Back Alley Insulated cup at home because it reminds me of my happy place when I cant be there. Today was a fantastic day because I got to visit Back Alley! It was our first time in since all the storm damage and the place looks even more beautiful than it did before!“

“If you are in the Bradenton, Florida area I highly recommend visiting Bayshore Nutrition. The owner is so nice, the store is beautifully decorated and the teas, protein donuts, energy bites, chocolate pb protein parfait were outstanding! We will definitely be back! 🫶🏼🙌🏻“

“We stopped by Pelican’s Snoballs in Bradenton and were pleasantly surprised! They have a huge variety of flavors to choose from, and the snoballs are soft, fluffy, and packed with that authentic New Orleans flavor. A perfect treat on a hot Florida day!

They’re currently running a great deal—$20 for 25 coins, and each coin is worth $1. It’s a fun and budget-friendly way to treat the whole family. In addition to snoballs, they also offer other frozen treats and ice cream options, so there’s something for everyone.

Parking is a little limited, but there’s a picnic area with shaded seating and yard games, which made the experience even more enjoyable for the kids. It’s a laid-back, family-friendly spot we’d definitely visit again!“

“AMI Pizza was good and our order was ready in 10 minutes.“

“Great place to get an icy cool treat. Place is very clean, great employees that have great recommendations as well.“

“Our family of eight arrived after closing time, thinking the shop was still open until 11. Tyler, Lorenzo, and the team kindly stayed late to serve us and even offered helpful recommendations since it was our first visit. We had a wonderful time celebrating our daughter’s birthday, and everyone loved their ice cream choices. The customer service was outstanding, and the ice cream was just as amazing. We’re so grateful for the experience and will definitely be back!“

“Just visited the restaurant for the first time after a long drive from the Panhandle, we are from London England and saw the reviews online and were not disappointed. Purely authentic food, fresh and tasty, great service from Matt. All staff were welcoming and friendly. The seafood was delicious and the keylime pie to die for. Will definitely be back next time we are in Florida. Give the place a try for yourselves 👌🏻“

“We had the pompano fish, Atlantic salmon and seafood salad sandwich. ALL delicious! The woman who took our order was warm and friendly and was glad to answer any questions we had as this was our first visit. We are not from this area but plan to visit yearly and Star Fish will definitely be on our list of places to eat!“

“Great food and great service. Our waiter Rogelio was excellent. Very nice ambiance, highly recommend Harry's.“

“Anna Maria Oyster Bar - Ellenton, FL After spending the day at the Florida State Fair in Tampa, my fiancé and I decided to stop by Anna Maria Oyster Bar in Ellenton—and we’re so glad we did! We ordered fried oysters, French fries, and cheese grits, and everything was absolutely delicious. The oysters were fried to perfection, crispy on the outside yet tender and flavorful inside. The cheese grits were just the way I like them—nice and thick—and the fries were a great complement to the meal. Even better, our food arrived quickly and fresh. Our waitress, Lilly, was fantastic, providing friendly and attentive service. We also appreciated how the rest of the staff greeted us warmly as we walked through the restaurant. It’s little details like that that make a place feel extra welcoming. The restaurant itself was clean and well-kept, including the bathrooms, which is always a big plus. Anna Maria Oyster Bar now has four locations, and after this experience, I’d definitely visit again. If you’re in the Ellenton area and craving fresh seafood with great service, this spot is a must-try!“

“Ate here first time today, 4-12-22, for lunch. Wonderful fresh fish. Generous portions. Pricing commensurate with quality. Clean, well-lit, modern space. Good service. I'll be back!“

“Great place. Great shakes and refreshers. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. I would highly recommend it.“

“Melissa was the consummate professional and excellent personal chef! She was extremely organized and every single course she prepared was outstanding! It was a truly wonderful evening and her delicious food and beautiful presentation so aptly captured the essence of our “Cheers to 65 years” with our Highschool Girlfriends!!“

“I was so hungry and the food looked so good that I didn’t snap any pictures. I had the Bacon Me Crazy wrap and Reeses Pieces cookie. My wife enjoyed the Hot Mess grilled cheese sandwich.

Was our first visit but won’t be our last!!!“

“Loved this place! Thank you for taking care of us!“

“We were staying at the SpringHill Suites in Bradenton, the Oak and Stone is a restaurant on the first floor. It has good bar food and lots of different beers. You can serve yourself beer from a large number of Taps on the wall where you pay by the ounce. When crowded it gets very noisy. Seems to attract tourists and Young Folks and groups. Well worth the stop to see if it fits your style.“

“Most amazing German food that I’ve ever had. Servers were very friendly & knowledgeable about the dishes that the chef creates. Add in authentic German beer and this place is a must visit. Definitely worth the drive if you are anywhere nearby. I could eat here every meal as there are many options and everything tastes wonderful. Sehr gutt und wundebar!“

“My son and I love having tea parties together here.“

“This really is a unique place. Melissa is extremely humble, intelligent, and GREAT at making coffee. Every time you order here, you know you've just been served the good stuff by the best team. Sunday mornings are a special treat as a parade of very happy regulars from all over Bradenton can't wait to stop by their favorite coffee shop. Way to go, Orange Blossom!“

“Amazingly fresh and delicious food, an adorable, cozy atmosphere, and wonderful, personable owners, including Oliver. 🐾 Can’t wait to return!“

“I took my brother to dinner for his birthday last week based on his suggestion. I’ve never been prior to our visit for his birthday. Oh my gosh, the menu is absolutely amazing. The food is next level. I loved the stuffed jumbo mushrooms so much so that I ordered a second helping. Oh my gosh, just everything was so good I cannot say enough about this place. The drinks are very, very good as well as they have a full bar, but the food OMG, exceptional!“

“During our trip to Anna Maria Island we visited Dips almost every night! Best ice cream flavors and the ice cream doesn’t compare to others. The service was great. We are going to miss our nightly trips to Dips! We would highly recommend!!“

“I celebrated my birthday at this quaint and unique space last month, and have been back several times since.
Meaghan, the owner, is friendly, accommodating, and a lovely person to chat with.
We have tried just about everything on their food menu, as well as sampled many of their wines. Everything we tried we loved!
We particularly enjoyed the Lola Pinot Noir. As we learned, Lola, is the label of her brother's vineyard in the Sonoma Valley.
Don't expect over-the-top service, expect excellent food, excellent wine, and excellent conversation.
Just love this place! Supporting local restauranteurs is so important. Keep the national chains from absorbing or forcing the mom and pops out.
Cheers to the entire Jennings Provisions team!“

“Lo' key truly love the name and your service. I was here with my Family from NJ. We went to a local beach an discovered your place and its menuplus the name had to stopby. Felt fully welcomed and comfortable with the service. Plus your food its menu and its prep was amazing. I will be back when ever we are in town again. Or better yet become neighbors. Thank you again from the Santos Fam. PS my kid loved the Crab legs“

“We ordered brisket for a work luncheon, and it was absolutely the best we’ve ever had! Tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Everyone loved it, and we’ll definitely be ordering again.“

“Stopped in for breakfast. Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Will be back for lunch another time.“

“I have driven by many times and we finally stopped by. They are usually doing business like crazy every time we drive by. After eating the tacos... im coming back A LOT. The food is great, I cant wait to go back and try everything else. These tacos are fantastic, we got the carnitas and sauces but honestly these are fine just the way they are...perfect.“

“Great, casual, friendly spot.“

“Exceptional Ice Cream Shop with Outstanding Service! This ice cream shop goes above and beyond in every way! The service was impeccable—warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. The staff made sure every customer felt welcome, offering samples with a smile and patiently answering questions about flavors. Their hospitality truly elevated the experience. As for the ice cream? Freshly made, rich, and unbelievably delicious! You can taste the care in every scoop—creamy, perfectly balanced, and bursting with flavor. Whether you stick with a classic or try something bold, it’s hands-down the best ice cream I’ve ever had. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates top-tier service and unforgettable treats! 🍦✨ 10/10—will be back again and again!“

“I gotta say, Alicia at Paddywagon is awesome! She’s super friendly and makes you feel right at home as soon as you walk in. Even when the place is packed, she never lets you wait too long for a drink. Alicia knows her stuff when it comes to making drinks. She’s quick, and her cocktails are always spot on. Plus, she’s really good at remembering what you like if you’re a regular. She’s always got a smile on her face and is up for a chat, which makes hanging out at Paddywagon even better. The bar’s always clean and she handles everything like a pro, even when things get a little crazy. If you’re looking for a good time and great service, Alicia’s your girl. Go check her out at Paddywagon – you won’t be disappointed!“

“No food, just drink and smoking indoors. Nice atmosphere if you're looking for an old school pub feel. The ventilation system and open doors manages to move the smoke out pretty well. It is a local place, but friendly to visitors. Fun place for a pint or two.“
