Honestly I felt like I was eating a Lender's bagel with not much on it. My daughter had an everything bagel with cream cheese, she agreed and thought that even though simple it should have been better. Presentation was very nice and the service was good. We both had coffee, I had a dark roast, she a latte. This too was just ok. Truthfully I did expect more for the price we paid, I expected more period. Walking in I loved the place, it's darn cute and I think it's amazing that they sell "Quincy Cattle Beef" in the freezer that's in the front of the store. The decor is inviting but sadly our food and yes even simple was lacking but it was a relaxed atmosphere.

I had been here a few years ago and it was the place that seemed so lively, inviting and to be able to sit outside right next to the beach pretty much is just so warming in ways that you cannot help but to smile. The menu is simple but their is more than enough to to choose from and everything is delicious. The last time I was here I remembered having the blackened grouper dinner which was amazing. This time around for lunch we both had the cheese burger in paradise! Also great choices I have to say! The service is good but at times it can get busy and then it may be a little slower but still fantastic. I do enjoy coming here when out at Cedar Key. It's comfortable and yes you can eat inside but on such an incredible day I cannot resist being outdoors. Great drinks available a truly great experience! Not wheelchair accessible as it is upstairs and there is a bar downstairs. I highly recommend visiting The Tipsy Cow for some good food and a wonderful environment. The views are pretty as well !

I've never been to a restaurant that didn't automatically discount the price since there's no liquor. No tip. Not returning.

Stopped to try out this coffee shop while in the Cedar Key area one morning. I did not know…read moreanything about it before stopping, but was impressed with the entire experience! While visiting family nearby in Chiefland, we stopped into Cedar Key one morning before our trip concluded. It was a Wednesday in July, and overall the area was not super busy. We came up to The Prickly Palm around noon on a Wednesday in July, and were one of a few customers there. This coffee trailer is located in the main part of Cedar Key. I recently learned that they used to have a brick and mortar, but that was unfortunately destroyed by the hurricane last year. Despite this, their trailer and whole current set-up is very cute and inviting. The trailer is set up along 2nd Street, and sits in the back of the lot. You will see a sandwich board sign indicating where the lot is, along with a ton of outdoor seating under tents. There is not a dedicated parking lot specifically for The Prickly Pear, but we had no issue finding street parking right near the entrance. The menu here is very diverse and full of variety! Not only do they have coffee, but there are also smoothies, açaí bowls, milkshakes, and breakfast items. I was especially impressed with the variety of flavoring for the coffees. Sometimes, places only have a few flavors. However, there was a solid collection of flavors and different combinations marketed for customers to choose from! It seems like there are seasonal options available, as they had a lot of banana coffee options on this particular day. I appreciated the different sizing options for the coffee. Especially for the iced, as typically a lot of local coffee places do not have bigger sizes (comparable to a Dunkin or Starbucks). The Large Iced is 32OZ, which was a pleasant surprise! They did seem to have a size for everyone, whether they want a lot of coffee or just a regular amount. I personally ended up ordering a Large Iced Banana Nut Mocha Latte, but requested half of the syrups to tone down the sweetness. It was really good! I am iffy at times on banana flavoring, as I am not a fan of artificial banana. Even so, I liked this latte and enjoyed it throughout the afternoon. The others I was with all enjoyed their drinks as well! This was my first time visiting here, and the employees could not have been more welcoming! I asked for recommendations and their favorites, and they gave a lot of good suggestions and information. There were three of us total, each getting a large latte or cold brew. The total was a little under $30 for all of it. So, this place is a little more expensive than other spots, but I do believe the value is there. Plus, you are supporting a small business which is a win! Loved visiting The Prickly Palm for the first time. We tend to come to the area at least once a year, and I look forward to our next visit so I can make another trip to The Prickly Palm for a delicious latte! I would recommend giving this spot a try if you find yourself in Cedar Key.

Our first 2 choices were closed…read moreon Monday, so we went to the 2nd street cafe, and at first we were confused because all the servers had tshirts that said Steamers and our menu said Steamers. So since we are new to the area, we had to ask. 2nd street cafe and Steamers are owned by the same person and the original Steamers location had a devastating fire just before hurricane Helene hit. So they operate both restaurants out of the same location. 2nd street cafe for breakfast and lunch and Steamers for dinner. Our server did say they are planning to build a new building somewhere, but i'm not really sure where. We had the gator bites to start, they were pretty good. And I had pasta Alfredo with grilled salmon on top, which was fantastic. And my husband had the seafood pasta. Also, there was a special for margaritas, and they were very tasty as well.

Guess what that empty table was our table. It's not an overload cause every table was used. Maybe we just not her kind of people cause we don't wear orange and blue.

This place makes the red clam chowder, which is what we prefer over the white & fresh crab bisque. You can get it by the cup or bowl or you can get a quart to take home. Both soups were amazballs. In fact, we haven't stopped talking about them since. We wished we would have got a quart of each to take home!!! The red clam chowder has potatoes/onions very hearty with their fresh local clams it's just fabulous. The crab bisque is cream based & has tons of fresh crab in it. Both of them are just divine. like i said we still are talking about these two soups. We can't wait to return for the quarts to go!!! Very cool dockside dining under the stars. Highly recommend.

Cedar Key island Bakery is a family owned bakery where most if not all of their recipes come from previous generations ! In the early 2000's they opened in Nashville and the bakery grew very big but the family wanted to travel the country. After some time they decided to settle in Cedar Key ! Everyone who walks in to the bakery will be greeted with smiles and kindness! On Thursday's it's key lime pie day and you must go early! As the day goes on the delicious baked goods can disappear fast. The fantastic chocolate cake I've heard is a secret recipe that's been in the family for many, many years I can only imagine. It is so moist and heavenly, not too sweet and just the right flavor, texture and richness we had to go back in and grab a second to take back home! There is even ice cream if you'd like to have some on top, just yum! I picked up a caramel apple donut that was out of this world stuffed to the brim with apples so fresh and incredible. I also got a peanut butter and jelly donut that most definitely had real peanut butter and it is outrageously delicious! The chocolate covered donut was simply divine. The chocolate on top is thick and tastes almost a bit like ganache. I will be getting these again and trying others when we come back as the Cedar Key Bakery is going to be our go to when visiting. I almost forgot about my maple bacon donut that I also really liked. I would probably add more bacon but maybe that's me because it still is another delicious option. Everything in this bakery is wonderful and I can promise that you will love it! The atmosphere itself is amazing, you just have to walk in and see. It almost feels like an old country store but instead you find wonderful fresh baked goods and ice cream ! What more can anyone ask for.

I've always kinda liked Bett's Big T but also used to have reservations about it. Back circa 2015,…read moreit was pretty run down, looked pretty grim honestly. I guess it began as a truck stop decades ago and then became solely a restaurant. Anyways, they have had a cosmetic refresh, painting the building, adding cute signage including some features explaining Bett's long history, and just made the dining rooms a down-home but clean and inviting place now. This goes a long way: I am all for hole-in-the-wall restaurants but you don't want a place to look dirty, either. Bett's no longer does. It looks comfortable and plain-spoken, honest, and home town now. The food has always been good. You get a menu dinner or daily special--things like chicken fried steak or liver and onions or fried mullet--and a choice of three sides. The sides range from mac-n-cheese and collards to normally a couple homemade desserts: the peach cobbler and strawberry cake both are not to be missed. Portions are generous. Their Friday and Saturday all-you-can-eat seafood dinner is also a real deal and good food. Red velvet cake, caramel cake, and lemon cake are hits too but less frequent in their menu appearances. Ford hook limas sometimes show up too, slowly cooked with bacon or ham and are awesome. The painting and general interior and exterior refresh really went a long ways with me to have greater confidence in Bett's. It's now easily a place I rank with some of the region's best country/Southern cooking restaurants.

The food selection is very diverse and plentiful. The prices are between $12 and $20'ish per person. The fried chicken comes with 2 or 3 sides and or a desert.
