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!!“

“Great place! J was awesome !“

“Jessica is the absolute best hands down bartender to bartender she was the vibe!! i highly recommend coming to Mad pub and asking for her 10/10 experience!!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Fun times and dope song choices at karaoke!“

“Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Our dogs had an absolute blast and were completely worn out by the end of the visit. The food was delicious, the beer selection was excellent, and the whole atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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“

“It's an amazing place where the locals and vacationers interact in such a friendly way! Great drinks, great conversation and welcoming atmosphere.“

“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!“

“THIs I S THE BESTEST PLACE ON ST. PETE BEACH!!!!!! Ya do not want to leave once you are there. Amanda is the sweetest and now she is my adopted daughter cuz i fell in love with her. She took very hood care of my 80 yr old momma and she had a blast . Devin will rock your world with his cocktails and the DUDE is Chris himself. Love my new tiki family. Always a great time with fun people and even better when it storms. Only tiki bar on my list to visit every single time I am here. And i spend a time there every day while on vacay. Generally I am not a drinker but on the beach a bloody Mary from Chris' beachside tiki bar makes me happy every time and Amanda will create a drink if needed and Devin is more than accommodating. I love my St. Pete Peeps. Cannot wait to be back. See ya soon Amanda Panda my sweetpea, Devin and Chris (my dude)✌️☮️💙💙💖🙂“

“Just wanted to shout out our favorite local bar! Always a great time at Ka’Tiki whether you’re looking for great music or great dive bar atmosphere! The weekend bands have been FIRE lately! The BLT and burgers are always great. The drinks are affordable and well made! We’ve made great friends over the years here! We love all of our Ka’Tiki family and staff and are glad that one year after digging out from Helene you’re still here! The only thing I’d change is put bartender Chris back behind the bar on Friday and Saturday nights! We need his speed and efficiency on those packed nights with the great bands you’ve been getting!“

“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.🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤣😎..“

“My sisters best friend and I went there about three weeks ago after we went to dinner at Hooters on the pass had a blast we did not dance but we enjoyed a drink and people watched everyone there which is unlike us usually we’re the ones leading the party. Drinks were fairly priced so I am told will definitely go back if we evwr make another trip out after dark“

“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!“

“A great place to watch the sunset and meet new people“

“Most of the bartenders are very good, but some like Stephanie have a lot to work on. If you are not one of her friends she will make you wait forever.“

“75th Trip-Around-the-Sun for my husband. Party of 16 seated to celebrate. The birthday boy has the Mango Nut Crusted Grouper (Fresh Florida Grouper crusted with macadamia, pistachio, and walnuts with a Mango Beurre Blanc & coconut basmati rice.) The atmosphere was inviting - our locals enjoyed the signature dishes and the menu selections, and our out-of-town family was impressed the location, food and service.“

“We stayed here for 4 days, out of those 4 days we kept returning to the cabana bar for a bartender named Edward. He was absolutely amazing and made our entire trip. If you see Edward at the cabana bar be sure to stop by and say hi! Great service, fantastic drinks (especially if you ask for bartenders choice!) would highly recommend over and over again.“

If you were looking for a nice day or evening out, very pleasant atmosphere to be in. Thank you very much, sal and Stacey. We had an awesome time with you guys.“

“Just wanted to give a big shout out to RipTides and amazing bartenders Maddy and Johnny! After being made to feel unwelcome and snubbed at another local bar, these guys went above and beyond treating us as regulars not tourists! Thank you! We will always recommend going here to anyone who asks for a place to go and we can’t wait to come back! Hopefully it will be warmer than last week 😂“

“This was a great beach bar restaurant. We are doing window film on the new Winter the Dolphin's Beach Club. Not too many places are open due to the circumstances but I had an amazing grouper sandwich and I saw the attention when and to everyone wearing gloves and they were super prepared. Great job. I would highly recommend this beach bar restaurant.“

“Gooses is quickly becoming our Go-To local bar! With their fun and welcoming staff, great bar menu and super reasonable drink prices, they ARE the quintessential neighborhood bar! Steve, the owner, is a good sport and always does what he can to accommodate his guests. They're cheese steaks are AWESOME! (order them with jalapenos. You'll thank me later!) They have dozens of TVs for watching "The Game" along with Darts, Pool Tables and other arcade games! You can count on my wife and I to be there on game day! 5 -Stars All The Way!“

“Well, well. Good food selections, good quality & prices! Fun karaoke with excellent hosts, Barb & Marty...and the bar staff? Not just attentive & efficient, but also personable & engaging. 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. Many of the patrons have become friends much due to the environment that has come about because of the whole crew. Check - it - out!!“

“Something fun going on what seems like nightly. it's my last night in the area and I was excited to come in for a drink and say goodbye. John is a very handsome & friendly bartender!“

“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 !“

“There are so many beach bars to choose from on St Pete Beach. The ones that keep me coming back are the ones that have fun, personable bartenders. This holds especially true for both Meg and Cortez at the Rumfish Beach Bar. It personalities like theirs, not the delicious drinks, that make trips like these so memorable. They should be commended.“
