“Today was our first visit to Shades Bar & Grill. We were there for lunch & the food & service (our server was Sarah) could not have been better. We ordered the chicken & sausage gumbo, Philly cheesesteak & the chicken jalapeño ranch wrap. Our sides were onion rings & sweet potato fries, however we had a hard time making a selection because of the many great food options to choose from. All the food was delicious & Sarah was a top notch server who was friendly, prompt & efficient. Definitely recommend & will visit Shades again when back in the area.“

“My husband I booked a quick getaway anniversary trip to a bed and breakfast in Grayton Beach and ended up eating here our first night in town. It was soooo good! The beer cheese is seriously the best I’ve tasted and I love a good stout beer cheese. The beer cheese fries are a must try! They have a great atmosphere inside and Victoria was our waitress and she was excellent! Very attentive and helpful with answering our questions about the menu.“

“Amazing experience from start to finish. Every dish was absolutely delicious, and the quality of the ingredients really stood out, especially the seafood, which was incredibly fresh.

The drinks were also excellent, perfectly crafted and full of flavor. The service was outstanding, attentive, and very personalized. A gesture we truly appreciated was when our server learned that I am pregnant and surprised us with a delicious dessert that wasn’t even on the menu.

That level of care made the experience even more special. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place.“

“When relaxing on the beach it’s so nice to have this place close by! The fries were absolutely amazing and the burger is just what I needed after being in the water all day. The buffalo chicken wrap was really good too :) took this great pic with my burger when I got it, I couldn’t resist!“

“Nice restaurant & bar with a beach and seaview. The food has a big portion suitable for sharing with 2-3 pax. Staff members are friendly and accommodating.“
