We came here after a long day at the beach and running around town looking for a good food and a great time. I must say we found it that night. As soon as we walked in, the waitress promptly came by and offered to take our drink orders. As you look around the place, it gives you that nice feeling of your local sports bar where all the games are on the tv's and the staff will eventually know you by name. The menu has a good array of options. They offer burgers, wings, salads, sandwiches, Mac and cheese, tacos, seafood, pretty much anything you can want. Oh and don't forget to ask for their pizza menu, it's separate from their regular menu. The food came in and everything looked great, the wings had a good flavor, the tacos were Ok, the clam chowder was good. What I'm saying is that the food can range depending what you get. It was Saturday night so they had a live Musician playing his guitar and it was really entertaining. He would play his own songs as well as ask the crowd for music request. Overall, this place is a good time with great service and decent food. read more

We used to like the Sandbar but it was sold recently and is now Pickles Pub. We decided to give it a try and was very disappointed in our lunch. The server was chomping on a toothpick whenever we came to the table. He kept referring to my husband as "boss" and "bro". The Nashville chicken was overcooked, as was the chicken on my salad. I was in the middle of eating when he asked if we wanted to settle up. He stood there with his ipad while I pulled my card out of my wallet and had me sign while I still had my plastic fork in my hand. I always tip because I live here but this was not worth $60. Bring back the Sandbar! read more

Very good bar food. Located off Duval, so it's a getaway from the crowds. My burger came out hot. Good service and they have enough large TVs for sports. read more

Richie, probably the best bartender on the key. Great service and drinks the were fast and clean

Huge menu. Great specials. Standard bar food- mediocre to good. Service is attentive but food takes a while when kitchen is busy. Downtown sports bar with lots of tvs and low prices (compared to surrounding area.) It has a large selection of beers on tap and makes it easy to separate checks for large groups. read more

We had a party of 8 people. We walked in and was immediately asked if we were adding 17%, 18%, 20% gratuity.... ummmm, ok that's awkward. we sat down and Nick, our server, appeared to be very annoyed. Short, curt, couldn't be bothered. 2 members of our party asked for red wine and he replied "you want the good stuff or the bad stuff." They replied the good stuff. 2 of the 4 glasses were spoiled. Asked for new bottle to be opened, was told they ran out of the good stuff so we have no idea what was served. Meaning we have no idea what we were charged for... don't worry this gets better. We were ready to pay our tab and I asked to see the tab (it was on the iPad). HE REFUSED TO SHOW THE TAB! I said, "please show me the itemized receipt" I wanted to know if he added the gratuity. He would not show us. Our tab was $248. It was extremely awkward. We had bartenders, bar managers and a food truck owners in our party. We are in the biz. I have never been told or told a guest they can't see their tab/receipt! read more

Service was excellent! Went in to watch a Reds game and they made sure it was on for us. The conch fritters were nasty and greasy. Overall nice place! Live music sounded great! read more

Love this place & the staff is some of the coolest around. Nate & Dave & V are some of our favorite people here. They all make us feel incredibly welcome every time & we love showing up on game day or to watch the fights. 6/5 stars read more

We love stopping in here for a beer, to watch a game, or as an alternative to Duval street. I am a big fan of draft beer and this place has lots of it, in many varieties. The place has a nice vibe going on and we have always had fun when visiting. This is a regular stop on our Key West itinerary. read more

Love, love, love this place!!!!!!! Great bar, great bartenders, great specials.......BUT, BUT, BUT!!!! these singers pushing their "originals" GEEZUS, I've NEVER EVER seen a bar crowd engaged with someone pushing original songs!!!! Sing covers until you can make a name for yourself. Again, I love this place, but the entertainment, is boring, talented yes, but the crowd is not paying attention, how could they? Just becomes a sleepy and bored audience, advise other places for music. read more

There is an employee named Tyler that is extremely rude and does not inform peolpe that he works there. He assumed that the people I was with were intoxicated and immediately asserted himself into our dart game. He did not inform us that he was an employee and demanded he needed our ID for us to continue. Tyler looking like a random tourist that has been drinking I decided to not give him my ID. Tyler then decided to take the darts and return them to the bar. I understand that if we were doing something wrong and if employees would be clearly identifiable we would not have attempted to play darts. I guess after going to this establishment I would love to tell people to go there but when you have a person like Tyler working there it is very difficult to recommend this place. This person completely ruined the night. read more

Watched the Super Bowl here with family. The bartenders are all incredibly upbeat and quick to refill your drink. The drink options were vast with plenty of beers on tap! We ordered a few different things off the menu, with the Carolina BBQ wings being the best by far! The establishment itself was quite large and clean. There are TVs all over the place making it perfect for sports fans! read more

Pretty much the good, varied selection of beers that WOB had here a couple years back. (WOB=World of Beer) Loved the music, classic rock, they were playing CCR, Bob Seger, Bad Co, etc during our visit. Good speakers too at least near the sidewalk area. However, 'Happy Hour' half price 12-4 only applies to weak, mass produced American beers which I don't bother to drink. Even Blue Moon, which I love on tap, was full priced which puzzled me... We did not eat but the menu had interesting things to try. Can't tell you if they made them well or if they just sounded good... We were there at 1pm and the place was mostly empty. They have good beer selections too, maybe KW isn't the place to have good beers. Too many people happy with Miller Lite, Coors Light, etc... Just thinking about the fact that WOB failed here, and Sandbar has a similar beer model , but, the business model DOES include food, which WOB typically does not, in their chain locations. I had La Fin Du Monde, followed up by Old Rasputin Stout, and both were delicious. read more

Great place to watch football and have a few drinks. Beer is cold and food is pretty average for a sports bar.

We come here every year for vacation. Our favorite waitress is Brooke. We love to see her because she provides the best service with a smile every time. The food is amazing, the vibe is cool and once again if it weren't for Brooke I don't know that we would enjoy ourselves so much. read more

We spend several weeks a year in Key West and Sandbar is one of our favorite places especially for tacos. Food is great and Richie and staff give us great service. read more

Chris was just on his second night tonight but he did a stellar job! We weren't contacted for nearly 15 minutes but being new he was unfamiliar with the seating arrangements. He made up for it with candor and humbleness. After that, drinks came fast and food came hot. We WILL be coming back! Thank you for making one of our very first Key West restaurant experiences great Chris! read more

I got the Mahi Melt and was extremely disappointed. First off the crinkle fries were dry and had absolutely no seasoning. Took a bite into the sandwich and it had no flavor and absolutely no seasoning. I opened it up and looked at the fish and didn't see any powdered seasoning, it was white. Fish was definitely just rinsed with water and grilled. Wasn't cooked with anything. So disappointed i took a few bites and left the meal there. Service was good. read more

Had to stop here so my Son & DIL could watch their beloved Seahawks lose another game. The place was packed with screens everywhere featuring all the NFL games. Service was slow due to the large, raucous crowd, but our server (you know, what's his name) managed to keep our glasses full and our wings hot. Fun place. read more

We love The Sandbar!!! My husband and I visit every time we are in Key West. Just celebrated our 27th wedding anniversary there and had a great time. Tyler and Dave behind the bar are the best! Alex the manager was attentive and very available, always checking in to ensure everything was great and was there if we needed anything. After starting at the bar we moved to a table and Zach was phenomenal as always. If you haven't stopped by The Sandbar, run! Don't walk. Great place. read more

We did a whirlwind tour of Key West yesterday. We stopped in for appetizers and a couple domestic beers. I had the nachos. They were smothered with cheese, beans, plenty of guac and jalapeños. My travel partner had the quesadilla. Both were substantial and reasonably priced for a tourist area. The beer was cold and the seats were comfortable. We had good views of the TVs and our waitress was excellent. We will be back. read more

This place was a ok. We were here on NYE to watch the conch drop at Sloppy Joes Bar. They are located down the street from sloppy joes so we were able to stay there until 10:30 or so and then head out to the streets to party. Monday is Mexican Monday with $5 nachos and $3 margaritas. The margaritas were good and a great deal. The nachos were not that great. Had barely any cheese and were super dry. Not the best place for food, but they have great happy hour drink specials. read more

This is a must stop! Food is really good, tacos are top notch and drinks are generous and simply made well. Lots of games on, friendly and attentive staff make you feel at home!! Keeps regulars stopping in and tourists coming back. We are fans! read more

Terrible service. Busboy visibly under the influence . Yelled at my wife for cleaning our table . Made up a story , Staff member with a redfish beard grabbed my wife's arm and told us to leave. Lack of service and extremely unprofessional read more

Stopped in here after I did one of those sunset cruises and so glad I did! The food was fantastic! Everything we ordered even the drinks were amazing! The service was great too! Had a very nice and attentive waitress as well. There's definitely a lot of room inside and outside to sit down. The atmosphere is very lively too. I ordered the Mac and cheese which was delicious, and my friends ordered the philly cheese steak, and a quesadilla. I sampled all their food and everything was outstanding! I don't think you can go wrong with anything you order from here! I actually finished all my Mac and cheese and I usually can't finish an entire plate full but it was so good I couldn't stop lol The drinks were also very nice and strong so you get what you pay for. And speaking of paying- the prices were very reasonable, and even if they were a little high I don't think I woulda minded paying them haha You gotta stop in here and get some food! Well worth it! read more

Loud. Dirty. Weak drinks. And worst of all, RUDE. I will never be back to this tourist trap lacking in love and inspiration.

Manager was awesome and our server Nick was great. Food came out quick and tasty, service was great. Nick did a great job with our group

Only giving this place a one star because I have to. If I could give it zero I would. The burrito, taco, and wings were good but the pizza came out soggy and had to be sent back. When we asked if we were going to get another pizza it took 30 mins to get a 14" pizza!! And the place had a total of 5 tables. Ultimately poor service and not worth your money. read more

While on vacation last week, my boyfriend and I went to the Sandbar for A bite to eat, drinks and Thursday night football. Cody was our server and we absolutely loved him!! Food was fantastic. We had smoked wings and tacos.. Cody did a great job all the way around...fun and personable to top it all off. Hope to see you next time Cody!!! Cat & Dave from Cincinnati, OH read more

If I could give this place zero stars I would. Do NOT go here. They will rip you off and then when you ask to see the tab they'll threaten to call the cops read more

Love this place! Found it when searching for #BaltimoreRavens football games and fell in love. Great staff, but really the best bar food in Key West. So fresh and tasty, great variety and weekday food specials, a real gold mine. Tons of TVs, they are always willing and able to find our game. You'll know you in the Keys, laid back, friendly, open air with a scent of party. read more

Got over charged, every 3 tacos you should get a free side, i was charged 99cents (for btw sucky chips and salsa). Beer had no head. Server no smile. Fish taco bleh. Gets more than 1 star cause the music was alright as well as chicken and shrimp tacos. Not to mention took a long time to get seen after I arrived read more

Just spent my last weekday afternoon at Sandbar. Spent 4-5 days a week there for their weekday happy hour. They got rid of it. Too bad. 3 well drinks and 2 domestic drafts cost almost $40 today. No more. Lots of regulars who say they will never go back including us. Love the bartenders but they are gonna suffer big time! Used to be the best afternoon happy hour on the island. read more

This was our 1st visit to the Key West Sandbar Sports Grill, we've loved the Cocoa Beach location for years. Our friend & fellow hockey player Andrew owns both & he knows what sports fans & players like - cold beer, great food & lots of TV's with some great bands/music along the way. We had the Baja tacos, black beans n rice & they are always delicious! read more

This is a good local hangout and the portions are huge! We got the tostada salad and the dressing is my all time favorite. It's cilantro lime-perfect for Key West. The bartender John was excellent-very attentive and hustled like crazy. Our first salad had the wrong kind of cheese on it so he promptly fixed it for us. The chicken was cooked perfectly. The salad also comes with beans, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, sour cream, and guacamole. You can eat the shell as well! Very satisfying! The reason it isn't five stars is because we sat for over five minutes without being greeted or acknowledged before finally moving to the bar. Otherwise it was a wonderful visit. read more

Was just sworn at by bartender for asking to have my game put on the television with over an hour heads up. Lol, wouldn't recommend. Figured a sports bar would accommodate that. Kind of confused. read more

Nice big bar and restaurant on Greene street a block from the marina. It is a really long bar and restaurant with a really big menu. I really like the decor and everyone is really nice. I got the Friday night pizza special for 6.00 and they also had drink specials. Nightly DJ is a nice touch and lots of TVs read more
