We really like this place, we have been several times. The service is always good and friendly. Highly recommend going there for drinks. Nice dive bar at John's Pass The down side is no central air but ok air flow, why 4 stars. read more

Always a great experience here they usually have a large selection of cider and beers on tap as well as a full bar. The music can get quite loud And because it is a touch tunes location, you never know what you're gonna get. We were fortunate that the Brewery that they were focusing on this month was three daughters which is right down the street. They had a apple pie cider on tap and it was delicious! read more

Always a good time here with a large assortment of options. We saw a smokey old fashioned be made this time and enjoyed the variety of beers, whiskeys, and mixed drinks. There was a new staff member being trained this day which contributed to slow service, but otherwise it was a good time. read more

Mad Pub at Madeira Beach - Harley & Molly are the best Great motto for visiting Mad Pub: 'Why not...just one more!' - Pubs Near Me - Madeira Beach, Florida

Over priced with hidden costs ($4 for a big rock if ice??? What???) also charged $8 for a smoked old fashioned that was not requested. Bartender made a regular old fashioned (Diplomatico rum, not worthy of $15)- for $15 + $4 ice rock + $8 smoked OF =$27 old fashioned. Highway robbery!!! Complete tourist trap during off season for non tourists!!!! Consider all this with a "dive bar atmosphere". Unacceptable. read more

great experience there! fun atmosphere, drink was awesome, great place to kick back and enjoy a few. Chrissy was very friendly and fun, definitely made the experience more enjoyable. check it out if your in John's pass for sure. read more

Our group ordered 2 French 75s and an espresso martini! Was the best drinks ever with the absolute best bartender. We may be back later for a night cap! read more

Came here today while passing through. The reviews here on Yelp were good and they had a decent menu. We decided to try the Octoberfest menu . The beer was good. I will say try some samples before you just order some beer because you like the style somewhere else. The venue is really nice and has plenty of room for several large parties. They were setting up for a wedding reception as we left. The food was good but not great. The service was good and the staff attentive. I would come back if I was in the area read more

Michelle is one of the best bartenders in the world that I have traveled! The place is awesome, you gotta stop by for an awesome drink!!

I asked the Bartender to close my tab and they gave themselves a 25% tip without asking, or giving me the opportunity to sign. Luckily I had text alerts on with my bank and noticed this immediately. I told the bartender I needed a receipt, and they reopened the tab and rectified.. still sketchy.. not coming back here. Tuesday August 12th, 2025 a little after 8pm read more

We stayed at Sunset Vista in April of 2023. We also spent alot of time at Mad Pub, it was a great, relaxing atmosphere and fun to just people watch. We are returning to Sunset Vista in May of 2025. I hope Mad Pub is up and running so we can enjoy this place again. Linda from St. Louis, Mo Barb from Lake of Ozarks, Mo read more

Went here for karaoke and it was a blast! Chrissy was our bartender and she was fantastic! Super fun bar with lots of craft beer & seltzer!

Amazing place! Staff is awesome. Highly recommend. Great beer selection and music is fun

I stopped by tonight. It was crowded, and they do have a vast amount of Local Draft beers. I normally have a great time at Tampa/St. Pete bars. Such was not the case here. I asked the bar back if I could have one of the TVs put on the NBA playoffs game. He was polite and tried to find a TV, but then from across the bar the bartender yelled that they close in an hour and no TVs are too be changed. They have like 12 TVs here, so it wasn't for lack of having an available screen. In any case, I get it maybe The Bay is truly just a baseball, Hockey City? But, No it's not. Or maybe my asking the bar back to change a TV was uncouth? Possible? I guess I'll never know. I do know that I won't be back here. I'll still give it two stars as I bet it's an absent owner who doesn't know what a jerk off he has working for him, plus they do have a nice selection of drafts. This is my 5th year coming to Treasure Island and I just know that this bar is not for me. read more

We had an amazing experience at MAD PUB. We like craft cocktails and were wanting some specialty Gin drinks. The Bartender AJ made us some of the best cocktails we've had. AJ's experience and mastery in craft cocktails is something you'll want to check out at this place, so many great drinks, great vibe, and impeccable customer service makes this place an easy stop if you're at John's Pass. read more

We had gone to the cigar store next door to Mad Pub for some... (wait for it)... smokes where we were told we could bring our cigars there to smoke and order some drinks. Therefore, we stepped over to Mad Pub, where I enjoyed seeing not only a nice tap list of craft beers available but a solid roster of Irish and Scotch whiskey/whisky from which we enjoyed some drinks. The pub itself is like most sports bars with live music. They have good vibes and good times while imbibing on one type or drink or another. What I like about Mad Pub is they have an island-shaped bar at the front of the establishment if you want to grab a drink to chill outside at one of the available tables. That spot is great for people-watching those hanging around John's Pass Village. They have an i-shaped bar behind that along the right side of the pub in addition to other table seating inside should you decide on those options. The pub is a fun spot to hang out with friends certainly, chat with the bartenders when they're not serving drinks, smoke a stogie, or contemplate existence while music plays and sports games radiate from the TV screens. read more

Great spot, great drink selection and great staff! Thanks Steve and Nikki for a fun time!

We recently visited Mad Pub in John's Pass & we had a very enjoyable & relaxing experience. We'll definitely be back. TY for a great time. I'd recommend this establishment to anyone. B Brame This is our second day at Mad Pub. We like it so much we decided to go again. It has great atmosphere, great food and nice cold beer. The customer service is exemplary and it is conveniently located in the middle of Johns Pass. So if you are on vacation near Johns Pass, you should stop in for relaxing drink. R Brame read more

Had to visit with brew pub while visiting the area. The decor inside was fun and so much to look at. I liked the tap selection. The flight samples were priced just right. It was here where I tasted "schofferhoffer" grapefruit and fell in love. I want to give a warm shout out to "Jennifer" who provided me, my cousin and boyfriend excellent service. We will be returning later on this year no doubt! read more

Mad brewery was closed for a private party which lead us to grab a beer here and to regroup for our short date night. Christmas ale : 5/5 tastes like a gingerbread cookie and gives you a punch at 13%ABV! Our bartender steered us towards our dinner destination which was exactly what we were looking for. Overall we had a decent experience at your typical hole in the wall bar. read more

Yikes, my wife and I went here and had several drinks from three different bartenders, and all three were horrible. I feel bad for them now, because I know someday they will be embarrassed by how cool they thought they used to be as a young hip bartender. read more

Very "Chic" bar for a beach area. Jesse is an incredible bartender. It's a clean place with fresh ingredients in their beverage. Fresh lime and jalapeño's for my blood orange Spicy margarita. read more

Service was terrible. I asked the girl to suggest a lager and she just shrugged and said "I don't know." Ok - at least pretend Then I asked for the Prosecco on tap (which was actually pretty good) and she literally asked me "Where is that?" ‍ read more

See that picture? One small craft beer. One Red Stripe. GUESS HOW MUCH OUR BILL WAS????? $14.95 BEFORE TIP!!!! No wonder there's only 3 ppl here. No Way. read more

Tucked in amongst a ton of Boardwalk shops, Mad Pub is an open-air bar that's too inviting to pass up. Friendly Staff & Patrons are magnets who draw in passersby ~ A place to enjoy a good variety of craft beers & conversation. We sat on stools near the sidewalk & watched the world go by! read more

Popped in for a quick drink while visiting John's Pass with my family visiting from out of town. The bar​ wasn't overly crowded and we found a few seats down in front of the taps where we could check out the selection of beers. The bartenders were very friendly, explained a few of the beers to us. I went way out on a limb for myself and tried the Funky Buddha Maple Bacon, a dark rich, coffee-based​ beer you could absolutely taste the maple and a slightly smoky flavor. Everyone found something to suit their tastes. We'll be back again. read more

We stopped here on Valentine's Day Eve. It was Music Bingo and we had a blast! AJ and Peyton were on the bar! Great drinks and fun times!

Ducked in a couple times during my vacation and enjoyed both their expansive beer selection, and their ice cold A/C. It was a hot Summer! They are settled in a little entertainment district for the area and have a new, clean, professional and welcoming vibe. They are not the cheapest place in Mad Beach to drink, but I get it, they hold high-end real estate that attracts a lot of vacationers like Steve, and lots and lots of foot traffic. Love the wall art. And I got my karaoke on one night, too. Cabeza OUT! read more

Great outdoor bar right in the middle of John's Pass village area. Nice atmosphere and good bartenders. Drinks slightly on the more expensive side but that is to be expected with the area the bar is located in. I usually stop here for a drink whenever I'm in John's Pass. read more

Had a quick drinks with friends after shopping at John's pass. Lot of great beer draft choices but unfortunately our beer was warm.

They should call this place resting bitch face. This is my third time here, same experience every time. contempt for the customer.

This place has a good atmosphere, invites people in, but, they don't give you a detailed receipt when you pay, $12.31 for one 12oz craft beer????? Really?? Yea craft beers can be pricey, specially if the abv is high, but 12$ for a 5.4% wheat Ale??? read more

Horrible bartenders and the owner she is unbelievable rude and she made a comment I can up prices because tourists will pay for anything !!

Good place for a lot of varieties of craft beer. Great location for food and a great view! Day time bartender whom I always seem to get could TRY to have a better attitude towards his customers. Otherwise I would give it more stars. read more

Really good beer selection. If you are at John's Pass, and like craft beer, this place is a must.

Behind the bar, Kyle made me the best blueberry mojito I've ever had. And Nicole was so sweet and fun. Great spot. Wish I was local so I could frequent it. read more

I'm a big fan of this bar, but prices for beers are high. If you are going to charge higher prices, then serve the beers in glasses and not plastic cups. read more
