Apalachicola Yatch Club was such a cool vibe and Carson made our experience even better. She was extremely friendly and made great drinks. 10/10 recommend stopping by when in Apalachicola. Hopefully next time we will be able to check out their live music!

The service was excellently provided by a very nice and friendly server who had superb recommendations for appetizers and entries. The 1/2 order crab dip was a meal in itself, it was more than adequate for three people. The fried shrimp, as always, was excellent. A very light batter, fried to perfection. The blackened redfish, with artichoke hearts, grape tomatoes, capers with spinach and crème sauce, over a bed of rice, was one of the best fish entries I've had, anywhere. Just fyi, if you want a nice casual place to go and have a few beers, sandwiches, whatever, this is the place. If you want the fine dining, in a casual atmosphere, this is the place also. You can order anything off the menu from the Owl Cafe, which is upstairs. Their "finer dining" establishment. Go and enjoy.

Great service-- two friendly servers happy to give us some local recommendations. Nice ambiance…read moreinside with sports on TV and local brews on tap. We tried the crab dip and it was pretty good (tasted like hummus?) with house-made chips. I got a cup of gumbo that was warm (not hot) and a bit salty, but still enjoyable. My boyf got the fish and chips and reported that the fries were great but the fish was quite deeply fried. Delicious, but needed a tums. Would recommend!!!

Yay! Such a lucky find since my hotel was down the street and the area looks like a ghost town. The…read morecashier was positive and an upbeat personality that its easy to see why they have been in business for a bit. I scored big by finding a real nice German wine for $5.99. The secret? Look above eye level, it was on the top shelf. There is also the 'hard stuff' and a good selection of beer. They have gift wrap and is complimentary, which is great if you need something last minute for a party. I ordered some food to go newrby and the wine went great...for 6 bucks you really can't beat that.

Something has to be said if a place is open for more than 100 years. And was impressed for a small town restaurant. Nice decor, good service, and impressive food. Ordered the Fresh catch of the day and Chicken marsala pasta with a side salad. Both were very flavorful. Tip for first timers - the restaurant is upstairs when you first walk in.

First of all this appears to be the only high end restaurant in this town. That in itself is…read morepretty awesome. I went 2 x's. First time just dessert , second time a meal. Fresh Catch of the day: spinach, artichoke, tomato, balsamic rice, lemon caper sauce. Fish: Red Snapper (catch of the day) (or last weeks catch but frozen) I forgot to take a picture: what they got right - the ingredients shown on the menu. They got this perfect. Fish: not so much. They have access to the freshest fish in the world, and that poor slab of fish looked pan seared on a dry pan, unseasoned, and I'm pretty sure it was frozen up like a hashbrown patty. Thank goodness for all of the other ingredients which helped me get down the rest of it. Desserts: mousse cake and pecan tartlet. Mousse cake definitely very rich and dense 3 out of 5 Pecan tartlet with icecream - 5 out of 5 Service was nice and Ambiance they had both inside and outside seating. It was ok
