Food scene
Our favorite place to eat by the water, hear live music, dance, watch the boats go by, or for fine dinning upstairs. The kids can even play in the sand!

This is a very unique place to eat, and not too far of a drive, around 20 minutes. Enjoy a walk down the pier to this beautiful restaurant on the Manatee River. It has great food and amazing sunset views.

You are here; right in the middle of everything! Apollo beach is minutes north of us, you’re on the river, Bradenton and Anna Maria Island are just south of us. You can even get to Disney in an hour and a half! But, take a left out of our neighborhood, and you’re a mile from beachside dinning, live entertainment, and jet ski rentals (Little Harbor)!
