    The staff is very friendly. They allow dogs which is a plus. The best place to watch sunsets in Cedar Key.

    Bloody Mary!  Amazing!!
    Ginger R.

    Cool bar, beautiful views. But the BEDT BLOODY MARY ever!! Yummmmmmm. It's worth the drive no matter where you are! They have had people for Arkansas come in for them! They are totally worth it! The most incredible Bloody Mary EVER! Lettuce, beef jerky (tangy), pepperoni, Munster cheese,horseradish cheese, pepperoncini, salami, gherkin pickles, spiced shrimp, orange slice & lime wedge. We had ours spicy which is jalapeno infused vodka, soaked for a couple of days before serving. It's worth the drive alone!! Open 2 pm - 10 pm!

    I'm so mad it took us until our last night in Cedar Key to check this place out! We passed it almost every day and finally decided we needed to check it out. When passing it on the street, the sign says they have the best sunset view on the island. While I'm sure this is true, unfortunately we went on a cloudy night, but everything else was great! When you walk in, you're immediately greeted with funky decor, which I absolutely loved. We ordered a daquiri and a pina colada, and both were delicious. There were plenty of places to sit, the playlist was on point, and the bartender was amazing! Wish I had a few more nights on the island just so I could visit this spot a few more times.

    The food was really great and came out fast. The drinks were fun, and the bartender was super nice and could make anything! The place was funky and laid back. We really enjoyed being able to have our dog and watch the sunset. It was a really nice place.

    Best spot in cedar key for sunset and a cocktail! Made of upcycled parts this place is a feast for the eyes as well as your tastebuds. Delicious cocktails and a dock to watch the sunset from make this the perfect way to end your cedar key day!

    Funky little roadside, waterfront (most of the time, haha) tiki bar with a dock and a firepit. Lots of seating around the fire and on the dock for sunset viewing. There are a few RV pads and motel rooms onsite, which seem to make an interesting mix of customers along with the locals that show up around happy hour. We were there on a Friday and Morgan the bartender took good care of us while were treated to some live local music. Very cool spot for a beverage and some laid back atmosphere.

    looks like a kids fort

    Nestled just off the shoulder before Bridge One into Cedar Key and cleverly cloaked within a RV campground (9 slots) and small motel (5 rooms) is perhaps the finest waterside Tiki bar this side of Key West. A house rules sign above the bar command patrons to have no drama or political discussion ensuring good vibes among the locals, tourists, waterman, naturists, campers, and all mothers lucky enough to roll into this watering hole. house menu is a collection of craft cocktails, most with some tropical theme both straight martinis and margaritas, fruity variety as well as blended ice cold coladas. the bloody mary was a meal with a huge shrimp, two slices of bacon, cheese and pickled veggies garnish and some sort of thin flat glazed jerky. Highly recommend the dirty banana colada, wife had it with chocolate liquor and just a tad better than mine with espresso liquor. they have good florida crift beer options, CCB Jai Ali. Dukes cold nose, swamp head midnight oil etc. bar is tiny with a makeshift, fishcamp feel. Recycled bottle and concrete walls, license plates on the ceiling joists, , lots of crazy knick knacks decorations in every corner of this small space. Dock out to the flats with tables and chairs and two umbrellas. other outside features include a fire pit, corn hole, live music occasionally (saturday) and they had a fire pit going. we were in CK the 4th of July weekend so it was busy, i can imagine that it might be quite slow other times as CK in general is low speed island time and this is about a mile out of town.

    Loved it here. We stopped in after a day in Cedar Key, and boy were we glad we did. This place has atmosphere like no other place I have been. There are funny signs all over the place. The bar tender explained that people bring them in for them to hang up. Some of them are hilarious! They also have a great collection of license plates as well. Next time we are in town we'll have to bring something. The seating area is awesome and the service is great. We were looking online and they also have rooms you can stay in, so we will definitely check that out next time. All in all a great fun place and we will surely return the next time we are in Florida.

    Amazing owners who have created a beautiful, fun filled placed with a wide variety of things to see! Live bands to listen to! Bird watching, occasionally dolphins, sunsets to die for, great well rounded staff members, drinks to enjoy whether you're looking for original, fancy, beer, wine, etc they have it all! Also a great menu to satisfy your hunger. If you have yet to stop in I highly recommend you give them a try!

    Come hang on the dock for sunset with a cold cocktail.

    Festive atmosphere. Drinks made with fresh juices. Live music. This is a great spot to hang with friends. Nice breeze on the dock with umbrellas to take shelter from the sun.

    Drama Free!

    RAD bar!! An absolute gem. This place is like an interactive museum, with booze! And lawn games! And plentiful comfy spots to lounge and watch the sunset! Coming from CA, I was surprised that a place called a "tiki bar" lacked the majority of what I expect on a tiki bar menu (i.e. an overwhelming number of rum-based fruity drinks with salty names and excessive garnish), but I don't even care about that because I LOVE THIS PLACE. They can call it whatever they want. The piña colada was super sweet, but good. The classic margarita was absolute perfection. And the Bloody Mary is EVERYTHING. Literally. The Bloody Mary is definitely an experience worth having! The Puerto Rican dude selling food out front sold me the best shrimp taco of my life. The bartenders and the owners are all lovely super awesome people. I'll definitely be looking for an excuse to head to Cedar Key again just so I can visit this tiki bar! Maybe next time I'll rent one of their hotel rooms or RV camping spot!

    Bloody Mary's

    The view and the service are both on point! Definitely stop in for a drink or two! The bloody Mary's are off the charts!! 10/10

    Stayed the night in Cedar Key and came here for dinner. We got a 6:15 reservation with only a…read morecouple hours notice. This is in the Island Hotel, a historic building with a lot of history. Had a choice of eating in the bar , the dining room or outside. We chose the dining room and glad we did. Overall all our service was very good. The server was friendly ( and very busy handling a lot of tables). I had an 8oz filet which was very good. I ordered it medium ( light pink center) and it cane out true Pittsburgh rare ( charred outside but rare inside- see pics) I was actually ok with it .... I order medium for my wife to have a couple bites even though I prefer more med rare. So this was def rare inside but I loved it ( I cut her a small end piece that was cooked a little more ) The steak comes with a salad, a vegetable and potato ( a lot of restaurants everything is alacarte - so for $40 for a prime 8oz filet with those sides included .... Not bad. Wife had shrimp and grit cake which is a large appetizer ( she had as her meal). Also had stuffed mushrooms to start that were very good. I think the town of Cedar Key will prob be one and done for us. Wanted to see it , it's quaint , old Florida ... but prob wouldn't come back. ( but only because we just wanted to check it off of a long list of Florida towns to visit) Pro tip: they don't take American Express , odd for a linen table cloth type of place .... So , it's ok to leave home without it

The outside was pretty full and we thought about sitting out there, but the idea of the bugs getting me later pushed us back inside. by the time we left at 6:40, there were only 3 other tables occupied in the dining room. We had a good dinner, although in reading some of the other reviews, we might have had the same server who seemed to be very slow and big gaps in between visiting our table - she seemed to disappear. I had the Calypso pasta with scallops, which was great. We had the stuffed mushrooms to start, which were yummy, but only 3. and my husband had a snapper fish of the day dish. He also enjoyed the pecan pie. And I enjoyed his ice cream. I was not a fan of any of the cocktails, so just had a glass of wine. My husband had the almond joy/mounds martini, whatever it was called, and he liked it a lot.
