    Awesome! We picked up our son from the airport & wound our way to this delightful bar/restaurant…read moreon the water. We waited about an hour on a Friday before spring break because we wanted a dockside seat! Worth it! 4 or 5 different brews on tap.. We sat outside & enjoyed the view--boats, gulls, & fish just steps away. We started with onion rings & fish dip. Both tasty. Hubby & son had the fried shrimp special with one side. Hubby loved his coleslaw (mayo based) & son's rice was a small portion. I had a grouper Rueben--delicious fish but not very ruebenish--no sauerkraut--coleslaw instead. Fries & pickle were crisp. You're supposed to toss your shrimp tails to the gulls! They catch them mid-air! All the staff was friendly & accommodating. A must stop spot!

Regulars pull up their boats to the small floating docks. Others arrive by car and parked in the unpaved lot or on the side of the dirt road. The thatched tiki added to the Old Florida charm. I bellied up to the bar outside. The weather was perfect for it. I started with a half dozen snots on a rock. Plump and slightly briny. A good choice. My single crab cake appetizer was too much cake and not enough crab. The remoulade sauce was unnecessary. I added another starter of their Captains Catch chowder. Had everything they promised but far too starchy.Service was quick from the two barkeeps. The highlight of this place is the journey and destination no matter how you get there. I imagine other items on the menu are deserving of accolades but what I tried just wasn't quite there.

I ordered a Bloody Mary, and my husband had a beer. The Bloody Mary was exactly how I like it--perfectly made and delicious. For food, I had the lobster benedict, and the lobster was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. My husband ordered the "Beef on weck" (not sure on the spelling), and he really enjoyed it--added a little horseradish and called it a win. It did get a bit sunny, but they brought out bar awning to keep things comfortable, which was a nice touch. Overall, a great spot--sorry locals, your hidden gem might not stay hidden for long!

Then they slammed down a laminated set of RULES listing all the DON'TS! Someone mentioned it was a health law!? Either you allow the pets or you don't but don't put all these rules! I've never seen anyone do this!?? Help me out here! If you don't want pets, just say so, service animals only! I ended up leaving your establishment never to return! I have a small Maltese in a small stroller and a most friendly, loving dog! Half the time, he's asleep Save customers the humiliation and even if you say pet friendly, say no pets please! Beware of mean humans! I don't care how popular the place if you can't have good people working for you! Totally heartless! I guess they're only as good as the management and establishment Never again!

Anyone looking to support a quiet waterfront community should certainly consider this gem. Parking in navigation can sometimes be tricky. So consider utilizing the paid parking and security offered by the Pineland Marina Safe Harbor next-door. The twisty windy Road past the historic post office, the Randall research center, and all the grounds of this archaeological treasure trove is worth the drive. But I would not encourage anybody to bike or walk due to limited unsafe pathways and frequent flooding. But once you find your sweet parking spot and don't have to worry about anything. Have lunch at the tarpon Lodge and then walk all through the community of pineland and gaze upon this country club-esque neighborhood that is anchored by an abandoned golf course. Local wildlife is rebounding in this potential preserve. Bird watches especially have opportunities to check rare sightings off of their ornithology list. Including spring time elusives like the Chuck Wills Widow nightjar, white pelicans, juvenile bald eagles looking for their life mates, pileated woodpeckers and so much more. And if you're lucky and you play your cards right, a local might give you a couple fishing tips and some secret spots. So always have a fishing pole and bait ready.

Delicious topping & sauce. Highly recommend. They come 2 per order and they split them on plates for us since we just wanted a snack (only went in for a drink). The onion rings were also way above average, crunchy and delicious! Austin the bartender is really sweet and keeps the customers happy. Enjoyed sitting at the bar so he could serve us again. Don't recommend going on a holiday weekend though. What were we thinking? Well the beach had no parking and the streets were very busy. Glad we found a place to park at the pink elephant. We just wanted a little beach outing for vow-renewal "anniversary." Wink. Probably going again soon on our engagement anniversary!

The waitress took our order and besides being served our food from the runner, we didn't see our waitress again. My friend who has an allergy was served the wrong food and we never received refills on our drinks, water, etc. The food was good. Presented nicely and pretty good portions. I finally had to get up and go find our waitress inside at the end to get our check to leave. Would have loved to have a good experience. May try one more time.
