If you are in Boca Grande, you need a good place for breakfast. There are several, but if you want something fresh and different, and by the water, then the Outlet is the place to go. Start with the coffee. You cannot go wrong. Then, if you want something unique, ask what they have that is special for the day. They will tell you that list. Naturally, you have a menu, but there are special meals for that moment. And they are good. Special omelettes, pancakes, even biscuits and gravy. It is all here. And it is all fresh. And it is all homemade int he kitchen. It is like being home and having a good portion to eat to start the day. It is one of the better meals in this location. It is a good place on the water. They do breakfast and lunch, and then the door closes. You are in the marina and the boats do come and go. The price is right. The team is good and helpful. It is a good way to start the day. Give it a try. read more

This is a favorite spot. Grab a breakfast sandwich and head to the beach, grab lunch in the middle of the fishing day. Always great food and wonderful service. read more

Just fantastic! The orange juice is the best we've had in Florida since moving here a month ago. The omelettes are pan made and stuffed with fillings. Texas toast grilled with plenty of butter. They allow half portions on most things. We didn't sit outside, but it's nice inside too. Our server was pleasant and attentive. We will definitely be back!! read more

Awesome hidden gem(: they have indoor and outdoor seating and we opted for outside. Beautiful waterfront view, fresh food and friendly service. Portions are large and everything we ordered was delicious. Highly recommend checking it out! read more

We enjoyed a nice breakfast along the marina. The servers took great care of us from the moment we walked up. The address took us to the wrong spot but we were able to figure out it was on the other side of the road and hidden behind the building. Parking was easy and the small patio was great. We never went inside so I'm not sure if they have more seating in there or not. We even had manatees swimming by throughout our breakfast and it was fun watching the boats as well. My breakfast arrived how I ordered it and I enjoyed it. It's about the quality of your typical diner but with much higher prices since you are on Boca Grande. Luckily they had big umbrellas to block the sun because it was very hot! We would come back for sure. read more

Good location, has boat slips so great place to stay when going fishing out around the Gulf. Easy check-in and check out. Rooms clean and accommodating. Staff very friendly and great to have a pool and a restaurant right there too. All in all great place to stay and we are hoping to return again read more

It's nice that you can sit by the water, but it's not some spectacular view. They are overpriced for what you are getting and where it is located. I pay less at Pop's Sunset for better everything - food. Service. & view It's not bad. But it's not good either and good is what they are charging for. read more

Great Caesar salad. Very helpful staff. My husband loved his cream chip beef. Nice atmosphere.

I'm going to update my review of last year for the Outlet at the Innlet. #1 for guests to know - the outside patio is pet-friendly. We took our dog Gambit there many times and have now successfully taken Jack, our new rescue buddy. I had pancakes there this weekend for the first time (what is wrong with me? Mac + cheese, now pancakes??!!??). They were excellent. Jack is still enjoying the leftovers because they were also huge. Bruce had his usual smoked salmon (lox) and bagel. Hands-down, Outlet at the Innlet is your best value and breakfast experience on Gasparilla Island. Everything is fresh and well-prepared. The servers are experienced, caring, and friendly. You are on the "bayou" on the island, so you have a great view of the osprey's territory and are likely to see manatee, who follow the tide in and out of the bayou. We saw one yesterday underneath the mangroves. Also saw two manatees in the gulf later on at the beach. Gasparilla Island / Boca Grande has been named the top small beach destination in the US by Travel + Leisure and maybe those ratings are legitimate because it's a wonderful place to be. read more

Best breakfast spot in Boca Grande! It's part of The Innlet and isn't obvious from the road but well worth finding. So I might have been overexcited and started eating before I took this picture but sooooo good. Order a muffin and ask for it to be "griddled". You're welcome!They serve breakfast all day but have a delicious lunch menu, too. Plus the service is wonderful- Linda, Lisa, Kelly and Peyton are always fun to catch up with. This hits the trifecta- food/service/value! read more

Incredible Service- Quiet and relaxing ambiance and perfect spot for coffee and breakfast!

Wish we could go there every morning! The staff is always friendly. The food was always hot, plentiful and delicious. What's not to love about this place! Inside is very clean and cozy cute. Outside on the water to boat watch. Breakfast or lunchtime, this place is Great. read more

We absolutely love this place! When we want breakfast this is our go to. The staff is always friendly. The food is always great! It's always hot & fresh, comes out fast and is always consistent. We also love that you can sit inside where it's cozy or out near the water for a view. read more

We loved this quaint little restaurant located on Boca Grande. This hidden gem is located on Boca Grande Bayou complete with gorgeous waterside views. We started our Boca Grande beach day with breakfast at the Outlet at the Innlet. Stephanie, our server was very friendly and attentive. I kept it simple by ordering a short stack of pancakes and a side of bacon, extra crispy, of course. Everything was prepared perfectly and was delicious. There is ample spacious parking. Be cognizant that this is a popular restaurant for tourists and locals and that there may be a wait. read more

Great muffins! Then you have great service and good breakfast! But the muffins get me in the door!

Super awesome place if you like burnt toast and flavorless food and catching up on server drama.. I'm glad my server had a good vacation...I hope she sorts out her medical needs.. 100% do not recommend. read more

Best breakfast ever! Also try for lunch. Great burger. Sit out on the patio on a beautiful morning. read more

Don't look at my profile and say "She only gives 5 stars" - here's the deal. If I don't care for a place, I don't review it at all. I try to give good reviews to places we have really enjoyed, that we think might benefit others. Bruce and I aren't really foodies, but we're also not the Cracker Barrel crowd. I also like to counteract the inevitable 1- and 2-star reviews from "that type of person." If you ever see a low review from me, it's going to be because I think other patrons should warned, like about health issues. It's not going to be because I didn't like the server or didn't like the table location. or because the tables were wobbly - "food was good" 2-stars, give me a break If you enjoy going to the beach on Boca Grande/Gasparilla Island, the Outlet at the Innlet, which we always say backward, is a wonderful breakfast and brunch option. The food is very good quality, and prices are reasonable, especially when you consider this is one of the only similar options on the island. And, also when you consider the general level of mediocrity at the overwhelming majority of other local restaurants. Those places serve "bag food" for the most part (frozen, reheated). The Outlet serves a modest range of breakfast dishes along with salads, soup, and sandwiches. The omelettes are usually delicious. I usually get the spinach omelette and Bruce usually gets lox and bagels. Everything we've had here (6-7 visits) has been good, and consistent. They are also PET FRIENDLY and will serve your pooch cold water. Gambit enjoys the sausage patty cut into tiny pieces. You can tie up at their dock on the "bayou" side or park in front - it is located in the rear of the Innlet, a smaller 2-story hotel/resort located off 12th St. read more

Great Lunch Place on Boca Grande! Simple but excellent Food and Service! Always a waiting line but it moves pretty fast

This is the perfect breakfast spot while enjoying "the Boca Grande life". Sit inside or outside by the water. Good service. Good food. Invite some good company and you'll be all set for the day ahead! read more

Just beautiful, peaceful breakfast after Church on the water. Food was terrific, staff courteous and efficient. Even Riccardo the iguana greeted us!! Perfect spot. read more

Great service and very good breakfast! Love sitting by the dock and watching the beautiful boats

Breakfast was exceptional! Everything was delicious that we ordered. And we sat in a little area outside right by the water and got to watch iguanas walk by, and fish go by, and it was a blast. I would definitely go here again when I go to Boca grande read more

Location location location! The ambiance was spectacular as you watch the boats go by. The service as well was excellent. The food was good, just needs a little more flavoring to take it to the next level. I will be back. read more

This tidy restaurant is located just off the main drag with a beautiful sunny patio set alongside a canal. They serve lunch and dinner only. We walked the few blocks from the Gasparilla Inn and sat outside in the morning sunshine watching the ospreys trying to catch fish in the inlet while enjoying our breakfast. When we arrived at 8:30 on a Monday morning in October we had the place to ourselves. I imagine it's quite different on a Sunday or during high season. They have about 10 tables by the water. For breakfast, they serve all the classics. My wife enjoyed a massive breakfast sandwich with eggs, sausage and cheese on an English muffin while I went to my standby French Toast and bacon with a tiny splurge to real maple syrup ($1.25 extra). Our server Mary was very attentive and the food arrived super fast. The menu is pretty big so we might have to go back tomorrow. Or maybe for lunch today? So many delicious classics to try..... A great setting serving classic American food. Recommended read more

Very basic breakfast food to offer , however it was good and filling. The service was quite fast. The dinning tables inside were very rocky/off balanced, so careful with your coffee. read more

We stopped by to get pastries to go and had our appetites quite satisfied! The cinnamon roll was a hit, as was the orange scone. The blueberry muffin was just ok. They're much better warm, so ask for them heated--or if you're going home, you can microwave them for 10 seconds yourself. We enjoyed little nibbles of them over the course of multiple days. Can't speak to the rest of the restaurant or the dine-in experience, but the pastries were worth the stop. read more

This is such a fun place! We go there all the time for breakfast. They always find us a seat and are friendly and fast. It is my favorite place on the island to eat! read more

It's all about the location on the water. Great breakfast cafe and good service. The indoor seating is tight and the food is good. It's a very popular place on the weekend so be prepared to wait if you want to site near the water. The food is good but nothing that is really unique. It's truly about the location and good service. read more

I love eating here on the patio when it is warm, the food is great and while they do not really offer accommodations for food allergies (i.e.gluten free) they will sub out items. I love the breakfast here, and hopefully in the future they will get away from all the jellies with high fructose corn syrup and make a homemade one like strawberry or grape from the kitchen like the other homemade items. Anyhow, this is always a good place to stop by on the island and hopefully at some point they will allow dogs on the patio again, but the laws in Lee county seem to be reverting backwards for dog friendly places and Lee county is no longer dog friendly. Not the restaurants fault. read more

We stopped by for a late breakfast on a Sunday and did some serious people watching for about 30 minutes while waiting for our table. Fortunately, the food was worth the wait! They have very "cozy" inside seating and, weather permitting, some beautiful outside seating. The outside view is of the inland waterway and there were some great boats moored next to the restaurant. Two of them were meticulously restored ships with mahogany trim that looked like they'd be at home in Gatsby's slip. We ordered the bagel with salmon and a special omelette with feta, tomatoes, and spinach. The omelet came with crispy home fries and toast and was really tasty. The bagel was also really fresh and all the trimmings were yummy and plentiful. We'll probably go back again tomorrow. It's a really beautiful setting and would be perfect during some less busy times of day. If you can score a table outside to watch the boats go by, it may be perfect even when it *is* busy. read more

Had brunch. The outside area is chill but the wait was too long so we sat inside. We got the two specials for the day - an omelet and eggs Benedict. It was good and very fairly priced especially compared to other restaurants in the area. Everyone's food on the table looked pretty good. read more

A hidden gem! Our breakfast was delicious! Our waitstaff was friendly and explained menu options well! We had breakfast indoors and were very comfortable! read more

Consistent really great food and service, and the view from the outdoor tables is still beautiful even after the damages from Hurricane Ian. The Outlet is the perfect place to grab a casual bite for breakfast or lunch in Boca Grande. read more

Love this little hidden gem on Boca Grande. Outside seating is on the water, inside seating has the small diner vibe. They have all the classic breakfast items. Everything is delicious and fresh. They make a mean grilled cheese with pickle too! Service is always fast and friendly. Yum! read more

First stop in lovely Boca Grande. As other reviewers have mentioned, the restaurant is attached to a hotel and has a very country club vibe. They have indoor seating but the outdoor seating is where all the charm is. The have about 10-12 tables lined up on a patio right next to the canal with boat parking nearby! Unfortunately, we got here rather late on a Sunday afternoon which was very close to closing time. There was already another couple of people waiting for the outside tables so we had to be content with inside seating. The menu has all your standard breakfast and lunch fare. They don't really offer a 'brunch' but since they are open from 9am - 2pm I suppose you could pretend you are at brunch! Not too many options for vegetarians apart from the regular eggs, omelettes, pancakes and french toast. Even fewer options for vegans. I was craving eggs and decided to go with a peppers and pepperjack omelette. The food came fairly swiftly. It wasn't much to look at but it hit the spot for what it was. Home fries that came with it were tasty and they had good coffee too. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. I loved the place mats they had with a drawing of boca grande and its landmarks. Our nice waitress let us take a couple as remembrance. I'd go again to have the experience of the outdoor setting. read more

Service was great- we were immediately poured coffee upon being seated (which I appreciated)! The patio was very pleasant as it overlooks the water. The omelets are huge! read more

Been going to Boca Grande for years but had never eaten at the Outlet. Well that will NEVER happen again!!! Went for breakfast 3 times during our stay. I recommend the omelets. Too much for me do I got a 2 egg instead of a 3 egg omelet. Their fruit is fresh & delicious! Eggs anyway are great, as is the sausage. We had French toast for desert ( very very good). The Outlet is a great coffee shop. Very clean with great waitresses. My favorite was Judy Love. read more
