Yummy cutesy beachy drink
Allie W.

Prices were somewhat high, it was $11 for each of our frozen drinks... but, I hear that's to be expected at a resort. However, they tasted good and came with what I believe were biodegradable straws. So, you can enjoy your fancy beach beverage and feel good that you're being environmentally friendly at the same time! Xoxo, Is this thing on?

Tradewinds Sunset $10.25
Jenni L.

Even though Sandbar (the beach bar at the Tradewinds) charges resort prices, the drinks are exceptionally tasty and I will be back for more! The bartender was friendly and there's plenty of room at the bar along with nearby lounge chairs, hammocks, fire pits, etc. You don't have to be a guest of the resort to come here. The Tradewinds Sunset was so good and tasted like raspberry sorbet. Perfect for a hot, sunny day. My husband enjoyed his draught IPA (I think 2 craft beers were available along with the Bud Light/Miller Light staples). You have your choice of a 12 oz. drink for $10.25, or you can upgrade to a souvenir cup for $19 for 32 oz. A great place to come and relax while enjoying the beach!

Piña colada, Sandbar Beach Bar, Rumfish Beach Resort, Tradewinds Island Resort's, St Pete Beach

The Sandbar Beach Bar is located at the Rumfish Beach Resort which is part of the Tradewinds Island Resorts on St Pete Beach, next to Toasted Monkey Beach Bar, Salty's Tiki Beach Bar, Gulfside Grill, Sandbox Beach Lounge, Jimmy B's Beach Bar, Postcard Inn Beach Bar, and Harry's Beach Bar. The Sandbar Beach bar is right on the beach with pretty views of the lush landscape, resort pool, ocean, and sunset. The Sandbar Beach Bar features a four sided bar under a shaded blue tent with high back bar stools all the way around, comfy large padded sectional sofas with fire pits, a hammock, padded comfy lounge chairs under shaded tents, and a live guitarist playing some upbeat music. The Sandbar Beach Bar offers a really relaxed enjoyable atmosphere with red lit up string lights over-head and the bar area was not over-crowded on our visit. It is not required to go directly to the bar for drinks. Servers can bring you drinks to your beach cabanas or poolside lounge sofas upon request. However, we went to the bar for quicker service and got a server within 5 minutes who was pretty friendly, handed us food & drink menus, and explained their specials. Regular sized frozen cocktails are a bit pricey at $11 but they did have a special of the day for $6.50. If you get the summer sized cocktail it is $22 but is 2.5 drinks so a slightly better value. We got our drinks under 10 minutes and the piña colada blue marlin was pretty tasty although a bit pricey. The resort pool is a bit on the small side and was totally packed with kids so I can't say I recommend the pool closest to the sandbar beach bar. However, there are larger pools elsewhere on property. You can order food for consumption at the bar, pool, or beach which comes from the Gulfside Grill Restaurant next door on resort property. I Look forward to coming back to try more off the menu soon!

Don't listen to the 1 star review- this bar is great with super friendly and responsive service, fire pits, TVs to watch the games-- right on the beach. No complaints here! Get yourself a cocktail, relax in one of the lounge chairs, and enjoy yourself! Don't be dissuaded by the resort - non-guests can come in and go to all of the bars!

Great gulf views with perfect pitch entertainment.

I typically don't dine at beach front bars however I was pleasantly surprised here. The service from Sally was fantastic, she was prompt, informative and friendly. The food was much better than I had expected. We ordered the shrimp cobb salad, loaded nachos and a cheeseburger. The portions are huge, the salad was enough for all three of us same with the nachos. Today they had live entertainment by Casey Allen which in my opinion deserves to be playing arenas. He played a wide variety of music (county, pop classic rock) his voice has perfect pitch. I would come back on a Saturday afternoon just to hear him play.

I'm giving this 3 stars for a few reasons, otherwise it would be less. First is past history and…read morethis has always been one of my favorite area restaurants. Second, the food was always good and some dishes still are. Third, restaurants are tough businesses, and I know all of them have cut back. Having said that after an 18 month absence, I orderd a turkey reuben sandwich. Normally, the turkey is plainly visible, not deli-stacked but a decent amount. They gave me what looked like two flat pieces of toast on top of one another. I opend it up to find a few scraps of turkey. There was more sauerkraut than turkey in it. With the price they charge, this was insulting. I don't like sending food back, but they needed to know they were ripping off their customers. Thye di take it off the bill to their credit but they nedd to clean up their act as their prices hav gone sky high. At least give people what they pay for.

We came here after a sunset cruise because they were still open at 10pm. When we got there, a live…read moreband was playing and they sounded pretty good. It was dark when we got here, but from our table it looked like we would have had a nice view of the water. The whole place is kind of open with an upstairs and downstairs porch. The food we ordered was fantastic. Loved the beef on weck and my kid liked the beef stew in a bread bowl. I loved the cucumber salad as an alternative to fries for my sandwich. If I was in the area, I'd definitely check this place out again.

What we got: *Mango Meltdown - A frozen drink of mango and strawberry flavors, so refreshing on a warm day at a waterfront restaurant! *Category 5 Crab Tots - neither of us really eat tater tots, but this menu item sounded too good to pass up. I'm glad we went with it because it was hearty and flavorful with all the tots, cheese, and lots of crab! *Crab Cakes - really good crab cakes, with plenty of crab. *Twisted Cauliflower - our server warned us these would be spicy, but we were okay with that. They definitely had a kick from thai sauce and hot honey, but nothing that made it uncomfortable to eat, the right amount of spice. We had ours grilled, and enjoyed every bite. Needless to say, we ordered a fantastic meal of appetizers to split while enjoying the waterfront view on a beautiful day. If you are in the area, I highly recommend!

The salad was really good, but it came in a very tiny bowl. Thankfully, the bartender noticed that I was struggling to cut it and brought me a plate.

The ambiance was amazing, especially seeing families hanging out and plenty of adorable puppies enjoying the outdoor space. We started with drinks, and the #5 IPA was absolutely delicious! My wife had the Prosecco, and she loved it too. The service was exceptional--everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and made the experience even better. We were starving, so we ordered the steak nachos, and they completely exceeded our expectations. As a huge nacho girl, I can honestly say these were top-tier! They were loaded with flavor and easily some of the best nachos I've had. To top it all off, we spent the evening outside enjoying live music by the incredibly talented Ethan Smith. Great food, awesome drinks, outstanding service, and such a fun, laid-back atmosphere. We'll definitely be back! If you're in Gulfport, do yourself a favor and check them out!
