The Seahorse has been open since 1938, and after one visit I get why. They've had 88 years to perfect brunch, and it shows. The bread should come with its own fan club. They serve Cuban toast with practically everything, and they also sell it as a $1.99 add-on, which tells you they know exactly what they're doing. I added it to my Cajun shrimp and cheese grits and then started thinking about adding it to my Cuban toast. Those grits are labeled "our most popular dish," and that's an understatement. I'd call it a personality trait. The pancakes run 1, 2, or 3 plate-sized, and ordering 3 is a cry for help I fully support. There's also a breakfast called the Hangover Helper. I didn't need it, but I ordered it anyway, just in case Future Me does. The Bloody Marys are $8, and so are the mimosas. That's beach-town money I'd happily spend twice. Heads up: they're closed Tuesdays, so plan your emotional support brunch for the other six days. Get the grits, get the Cuban toast, and leave room for the toast that comes with the toast. read more

Loved trying out this new breakfast spot before heading to Pass-a-Grille Beach! Loved being able to sit outside and enjoy the breeze! Service was quick and pleasant! Paradise Pancakes (Pecans & Blueberries): 8/10 Such a great flavor combo, it felt like eating a hug! Popeye Omelette: 7/10 Felt like it was missing something, but a nice light option before the beach. Home Fries: 7.5/10 Wish they were crispier, but the flavor was good! read more

This is an amazing restaurant for breakfast at St. Pete's beach. Super cool vintage restaurant from 1938. The vibe is amazing. Love the ambiance! The coffee was delicious. We were seated immediately and Tara our waitress was fantastic!! So friendly and sweet!! Great service. Our breakfast was amazing. The shrimp and cheesy grits are to die for with an over easy egg on top. My husband loved his breakfast, scrambled eggs, grits, bacon, and English muffin! He even ordered a 2nd order of bacon. The Cuban toast was good with the shrimp and grits too. This is a must stop while visiting St. Pete's beach. The bathrooms were super clean. There is limited parking out front and on the side with paid parking across the street. read more

We stopped in today to grab some food to go and took it on the boat! My husband dropped me off at the marina across the street and I ran across the street to pick it up! The service was very quick and the staff were so nice! The lady helping me went out of her way to make sure I had enough condiments and napkins for the boat. The food was great! We were all in the mood for a sandwich and fries and they hit the spot. We will be back. read more

I had a traditional breakfast while my friend had a breakfast sandwich. The food wasn't particularly fresh, especially the hash browns. The orange juice was barely cold. Service was good.

My family and I absolutely love the Seahorse! My dad passed away of few years ago and this was one of his favorite restaurants. We go here for breakfast pretty much everyday that we are in St. Pete's then go right to Pass A Grille for the perfect beach day. The pancakes here are unreal! read more

Needed a diner style breakfast so I found this little breakfast nook. This restaurant is only open for breakfast and lunch. Set across the street from the water. A cute little place and gotta love the name. I chose this place because they had shrimp and grits ant that their most popular dish. Do we ordered the shrimp and grits, a popeyes omelet and over easy eggs and corn beef hash and home fries.the shrimp and grits were good as the Popeyes omelet. The over easy eggs was over cooked and the corn beef hash was cooked crisp squished thin like a 5 inch pancake and did it mentioned it was thin? It was as thin as 2 tortilla wraps stacked together. read more

This was our first visit since the reopening after the storms. Other than everything being brand new, it looked exactly like the old restaurant! We weren't sure what to expect as far as being busy and parking. There were no spots for restaurant parking but we only had to walk less than a minute to find one on the side street. Food was better than I remember and everything was just great, highly recommend revisiting the Seahorse. read more

Nice breakfast spot. We had their Avocado toast and it was good and had a hint of heat. The waitress was very attentive and our coffee never got cold. read more

Seahorse - Avocado toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - St. Pete Beach, Florida

Found this place for breakfast while we were in St Pete. This place will take you way back as soon as you walked in. The decor is very nostalgic of the old Florida. I had the cheesy Cajun shrimp grits. It was so yummy! My husband had the French toast, but I wasn't impressed. They used a thin white bread which is normally not suitable for French toast.I wish I had a photo of it, but will be back again when we're in town and try something different. Service was great. No complaint. read more

Vacationing in St Pete's beach and was looking for a spot for breakfast. Took a 10 minute ride to Seahorse. Located across from the water In a quiet little town. Finding parking could be an issue however if you don't mind a walk then street parking is available. The restaurant itself has a vintage , preserved interior. Service was great, a lot of locals visit here. Got myself the classic breakfast, was a safe option. Mimosas weren't the greatest and that's part of the reason for the rating. Wasn't blown away , however this is a place worth visiting If you're looking for a breakfast spot read more

They are back and it looks the same been going here for 30 years love this place , I do miss the house next door for some reason lol

Found this gem on Google maps and was drawn in by the history --this place has been around since 1938 serving bfast and Cuban toast so had to stop by. Immediately noticed the fun, holiday spirit inside where the Santa-licans flew above with hats and various X-mas decor throughout. 5/5 service - waitress was super friendly and attentive, she checked in multiple times and gave menu recommendations. Our table had a wobbly bench and she offered to move us, but we had already gotten the food so it was fine. 4/5 food - starting from best : shrimp n grits, wow, didn't know grits could be creamy and savory at the same time. The little bacon bits added a zing of flavor to a bite that didn't need the shrimp, which was a zesty lemon grill flavor. Cuban sandwich was solid, bread was crunchy and stuffed with plenty of ham & salami. Cod basket was just ok, think they could have made the fish less oily. The cole slaw was a bit too slimy and sweet for me but others liked it. Dill tartar sauce was bomb and plenty left to dip the fries into. Parking spots, though few outside, are free. Otherwise street parking is about $4 for an hour. Definitely would recommend checking this seaside spot out if you're visiting. read more

Historic restaurant with old Florida vibe and decor. Their food is always tasty and the service is outstanding. Looking forward to going back since they reopened from hurricane damage. We tried a couple of Sunday's ago but they were really busy. Will try again in the middle of the week. read more

During recent visit to Tampa/St. Pete found our way over to St.Pete Beach. Nice Area with a very good breakfast spot called the Seahorse Restaurant. It's near the water with a throw back Florida vibe from the 60's & early 70's. Tables and overall decor is a visit back to old Florida! Server was very friendly & helpful with food selections. I decided on the Spicy Shrimp Omelette w/side of tomatoes since no hash browns. Also, had a Bloody Mary to start the day which was tasty! Overall with the nostalgia, food & service I would give this 4.5 stars! Thanks for the ride back in time and look forward to another visit down the road! read more

Cute, old Florida style breakfast and lunch restaurant. Lunch begins at 11am, but there are savory items such as BLT and grilled shrimp on the breakfast menu. The house potatoes have quite a bit of onion (just a heads up for anyone ordering who isn't a fan of onions). Side of bacon is 3 pieces. Everything tasted great. Love the decor. Service was excellent! Outdoor seating available, but the old Florida ambiance is found inside. read more

I had heard about and read good reviews about the Seahorse prior to our visit to St. Pete, so I wanted to give it a try. It looked like they had a casual, fun atmosphere and a great selection of breakfast choices. We stayed near downtown St. Pete, so our drive to Pass-a-Grille Beach was an adventure as well. We probably never would have driven down to it, but it's a gorgeous drive on a sunny day for the destination. We parked on the street and we seated quickly when we got there on a Sunday morning. We had a booth inside by the window. I enjoyed the old-fashioned atmosphere. Our server Betsy was FANTASTIC. She was so welcoming, friendly, and attentive. She had an amazing personality, and kept that coffee flowing! I ordered the Spicy Shrimp Omelette. It was so delicious and flavorful. The shrimp was plentiful and had Cajun seasoning on it. The omelette presentation itself was beautiful, too. It was one of the most perfect-looking, folded omelettes I've ever seen. The omelette came with a side of toast, but surprisingly no potatoes (not that my fat ass needed it anyway). My partner ordered the Veggie Breakfast Bowl, which was veggies mixed with their homemade cheese grits. He said the cheese grits were like none he had ever had and really enjoyed their uniqueness. I'm so glad we came down to the Seahorse and visited the beautiful Pass-a-Grille Beach. read more

So we finally made it over here for lunch. So good! It was not as busy as it gets with breakfast so we got seated quickly. Looking over the menu it was hard to decide but we started with clam chowder. Pretty good. Not the best I have had but it was definitely fresh! Then I had the Cajun fish sandwich. Delicious! The bun was soft and tasty combined with the Cajun seasoning and I believe their house made tarter sauce. Really good. Deb had the avocado toast. This was on Cuban bread and had some heat to it. Very good as well. A solid spot for lunch and our server, Vanessa was a great server. read more

Atmosphere - Very Good. Located in one of my favorite areas of St Petersburg Beach, the Seahorse has an very nice informal, tiki feel to it. The restaurant has a outside patio area using picnic tables for seating. Service - Excellent. Our server (Vanessa) was very attentive and pleasant. She checked with us often and we never had to ask for refills on our coffee. Food - Very Good. We were there for breakfast. The menu offers a nice variety of options. I ordered scrambled eggs, ham. Home Fries and an English Muffin. Everything was presented hot and tasted great. Overall Value - Very Good. Some may consider $30 for two people ordering breakfast to be a little high. However, given the location and the high quality service and food, I consider it to be a very good value. I will definitely return read more

We have t been here for a long time and I don't know why. They have a very nice outside patio and the menu is extensive for breakfast. Parking is always a bit challenging, but we managed to find a spot close by. Our server, Vanessa, was extremely attentive and friendly. Our coffee order arrived quickly and then we placed our food order. I opted for the western omelet with rye toast. The food came quickly and was nice and hot and the toast was toasted to perfection. The omelet was full of yummy goodness, probably the best western omelet I have ever had. Coffee refills kept coming, which I enjoy. All in all, a great breakfast from service to food. read more

Took a weekend trip to Pass-a-Grille and this was the BEST food I had all weekend. Seemed to always be crowded, that speaks volumes. Was able to do breakfast on a Saturday and Sunday and both times it was fantastic. Had I not been alone I would have been waiting for a table. As it was, I sat at the bar and was quickly greeted by the female bartender who was wonderful! Both days started with black coffee and Bloody Mary's. The cocktails were average, not spicy enough for my liking but a nice way to start the morning. The menu had the typical offerings but decided on blacken shrimp and cheese grits with Cuban toast. Never heard of Cuban toast. Everyone was fantastic, service excellent and the food second to none. Would I come back? Hell yes! Check it out if down this way! read more

Tasty breakfast served all day? Yes please! I love Pass-A-Grille and this cute restaurant hits the spot after an open water swim. Did you know swimming creates a hunger like no other? Exhibit A is my meal of French toast, bacon, and a biscuit. I could have eaten more but decided to be a reasonable human being. Anyway, the service was friendly and fast. And I will return to eat many, many more items read more

Absolutely love the food!! Came here with a friend of mine for breakfast on a Saturday morning at 8am. I suggest getting there at that time because by 0830-0900, it's packed. They also won't seat you until your entire party is there....one of the reasons I had to dock them a star. Food: delicious! I am from the north so grits isn't a staple where I'm from. Living in the south, you learn that they're fantastic BUT they need to be made right. THESE were made PERFECT. I highly recommend the Cajun shrimp & cheese grits with bacon bits (got it as a to go order for the next day) and also any of the breakfast bowls. They keep the coffee comin' and the OJ is great. Atmosphere: right across from the water in Pass-a-grille so it's very tranquil and quaint. A small mom & pop diner feel with outside and inside seating. This isn't the place somewhere to sit and catch up with a friend at your leisure though. They are eager to get your table because of how busy they get. We kinda felt like we were being rushed out of there. Hard to do when you're on island time. Dress: casual and relaxed! Parking: only a few spots in front and along the side. Mainly street parking from what we saw read more

On my first full morning visiting my mom in Florida, she brought me to Seahorse for breakfast. Located in a quaint little seaside shack, this is the quintessential coastal breakfast diner. Our waitress was extremely friendly and engaging, ensuring that our coffee cups never went empty and that we had absolutely everything we could need. They have a nice variety of breakfast items, with some local favorites influenced by the sea. I decided to opt for their breakfast sandwich, which was like a Cubano sandwich: pressed Cuban bread with eggs, ham, and cheese. It was absolutely delicious and everything I was looking for. My mom absolutely loves their corn beef hash, so that is what she ordered. I took a bite and it was delicious. We also decided to split a pancake between the two of us. The perfect balance to our meal, providing the sweet to our savory. So if you're looking for a nice breakfast and some coastal ambience, this is the place for you. read more

I have passed by the Seahorse several times over the last few years while visiting Pass-A-Grille but the line was always out the door. I stopped by this time to try my luck and the wait was only 20 minutes....woot woot! I started off with a Bloody Mary why we waited for our table. They offer some seating outside with umbrellas for shade while you wait. Our table took the estimated 20 minutes. I ordered the Hangover Helper which was two scrambled eggs over two biscuits with gravy. I asked for my eggs to be placed on the side however this request was not fulfilled. My food was tasty. The gravy was flavorful but not too heavy. Our server was super busy. But she kept up with our table of four. Our total was roughly $65 for four people which included a few alcoholic drinks. I would come back through again for breakfast. Plus the location is nice, right across the street from the water. read more

Seahorse - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - St. Pete Beach, Florida

Came for a brunch meal with a great view. The view was cargo containers and heard nothing but the generator across the road which was very loud. Decided to share a bowl of clam chowder and shrimp basket so we could get out of there fairly quick and share another meal somewhere else. Clam chowder was tasty. Shrimp was good but tasted like greasy eggs and hash browns. The fries were not good. Not sure how you can mess up fries. They tasted weird. Service was OK. Food was decent. Good price. View and sound was awful and I felt bad the restaurant couldn't do anything about it. read more

Seahorse - Cargo Containers and Loud Generator the Whole Time We Were There - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - St. Pete Beach, Florida

All the comfort food of a local diner that's as historical as the area. It's a destination for our family on a lazy Saturday morning, and we schedule in a walk on the beach before breakfast. Yup, I'm a shrimp and grits girl. Seahorse serves as a main meal or as a side. Cheese grits and grilled shrimp with a bit of bacon and spices . Not the traditional dish of sausage, onions and peppers. That's too much for a morning breakfast. Seahorse does it just right for a morning or lunch meal. Busiest during the morning breakfast rush, so be prepared to wait about 30 minutes on weekends if you go between the 9 to 11 rush. The service is friendly and relaxed. Dress is very casual and covered beachwear and flip flops are welcome. Outdoor and indoor seating. Plan a morning and pair your Seahorse meal with activities around the area. Stop by the Gulf Beaches Museum, the original church built in the early 1900s. It's free and they provide a 2 hour parking pass. Shuffleboard is free on the city's courts and makes a great photo to send back home. Walk over to Merry Pier and watch locals enjoy sone fishing, or buy a seat on the boat and take a ride over to Shell Key. Use the PSTA Trolley or local bus system and leave your car at the hotel! Take a look at the attached photos and head on down to the Seahorse. read more
