10 Best Cocktail Bars in Saint Pete Beach

“I’m a local. This is a good spot.“

“Beautifully amazing! The experience is a wonder so much to see. I am very blessed to have experienced it! The main attraction, though, was our server, "Megan" . Not only was she the sweetest, most attentive, and wonderful person, but she was very knowledgeable about history! Words can not describe how she should be running customer service there !! " Paris Hilton would love her and love it there." A definite must experience!! As always, tip your servers well!!“

“Snow crab special is well worth it for 20 bucks to start, drinks from the bar we're moderate. Gotta try the crab dip they have, it is to die for!!!

A+++ especially after a speedy reopen from both hurricanes wiping everything out!!!

Dietary restrictions: Not many gluten free meals but they can accommodate that for you

Parking: Maybe 12 spots to park behind the shells

Kid-friendliness: Def kid friendly, come on its Shells!!

Wheelchair accessibility: The whole facility is wheelchair accessible from what I saw, even outside patio is wide enough“

“The food, staff, and atmosphere are the best. Jay, David, Chris, and the entire staff are amazing and know how to treat people. The food is always top-notch. We eat there every time we're in St Pete Beach.“

“We ate at the restaurant and the food was amazing and the prices are very reasonable. We will be back!!“

“Ever since I first saw the Don CeSar, I knew I wanted to get married at the historic hotel for it’s grand appearance and beautiful décor. From the moment we toured the hotel to our wedding weekend, the Don CeSar was nothing short of amazing to work with for our destination wedding. Despite being closed for 6 months due to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, the Don CeSar General Manager, Barbara, and the Director of Events, Kasey, had open communication and made the entire wedding planning experience as seamless as possible. They were compassionate, caring, and did everything in their power to make sure the hotel and its courtyard was reopened (and in great condition!) in time for our wedding. (We were the first wedding back the weekend of hotel’s reopening.) Kasey, Barbara, the hotel staff, and the hotel banquet team (chefs, servers, and bartenders) went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was the best day of our lives. We truly received a royal experience as the bride and groom. Additionally, the hotel and its staff made sure that our guests were properly accommodated. Every single one of our guests were impressed by the hotel staff’s amazing top tier service and had nothing but great things to say about the hotel. When it came to the actual wedding day, the banquet team provided first class service. They even accommodated unexpectedly moving our cocktail hour indoors due to rain without missing a beat. The banquet chef prepared an impressive meal to perfection for our 180 guests. One guest even made sure to comment that it was “the best filet and salad” they had ever had. The pastry chef, Amanda, also prepared a cake that was a rendition of my grandmother’s 1950's wedding cake. The spectacular appearance and taste well exceeded our expectations. The servers and bartenders were nothing short of amazing as well. There were no lines to get a drink, and each server was very attentive. My planner, florist, and rental companies had zero issues working with the venue to set up the grand ballroom. The band/violinist were able to perform without any issues. Our wedding day/weekend was truly perfect and the Don CeSar made it memorable and beyond anything I could’ve ever dreamed of. I would highly recommend this wedding venue to any newly engaged couple looking for the best beach wedding experience. There is nothing else quite like the Don CeSar.“

“Went to check out the scene and was pleasantly greeted with great music as well as phenomenal views. Food was mediocre at best but not really what I was there for. My bartender was super sweet, plus the area was luxuriously spacious. Definitely check this place out, I’ll be back!“

“They have the nicest staff, and the food is never bad… ever… Lindsey who was our waitress for three different days, recognized us and took absolutely great care of us!!!! I hope she is here next year when we return! It is reasonably priced and in my opinion they have the absolute best raw oysters on this island! We have been coming here for the past two years and will remain faithful customers for the foreseeable future!!!! I am so glad we found this place when we were searching for local places to eat!!!! 💕Much love!!!“

“I was there for my birthday and I had a great time the ambiance was great and our waitress was so pleasant her name is Jeanae. I enjoyed talking to her.“

“This place was great! Service was above and beyond (especially Flavio who helped me with a billing issue). Rooms were perfect. AC was nice and cold. Pool was a lot better than at the “famous” hotel down the street. Restaurant is delicious!“
