Several vendors on the beach. Typical beach food and drinks selection. Kids playground on Holmes, Manatee Beach access area. The picnic area has picnic benches and grills and shaded for the most part. Very clean and free of garbage as the cleaning crew on the beach is phenomenal.

While on a motorcycle ride, my daughter and I stopped for a few cold coffee drinks. Upon entering the shop, we both found it a fun little shop to walk around in. The owner of the shop was working the coffee bar and made our drinks quickly …

Fun atmosphere, affordable food and decent music. My son and I love to go swimming then get some food then head back down to the beach to watch the sunset. The cafe is right on the beach so the walk is not far.

This is a cafe that's on the beach. You can come in off the beach for a drink, lunch, or even a casual dinner. Not a dress up place, but evenings with live music and the sunset really hard to beat. Food is dinerish, but in a good way. All …

Love this place! Great food and drinks. Parking is an absolute nightmare if you don’t go early enough. Parking lot is very small for the amount of people that come here! Go very early if you want a parking spot!

We had breakfast here and it was decent. The photos made it look a lot better but it wasn't bad by any means.

A must stop every time I'm in the area. I always get the "all you can eat" pancakes even though the number I can eat is usually just one plate. The sausage is very good but, sadly, not unlimited.

They tell you at the register when you order that it's all you can eat pancakes and sausage. But once you get your first order of pancakes you get three pieces of sausage patties and then after that it's just all you can eat pancakes you do not receive any more sausage

Food is always good. The Coquina beach pavilion has way better food and service. An employer tried to charge me for a to go box and a twice the amount in a beverage refill. We've been coming here for over 20 years and this is the first time …

$10.99 for a beligian waffle. $2.00 for whip cream with no prior notice. Not on the menu. Island prices are a joke. $12.99 for a strawberry waffle? Cmon guys. This is why us locals don't come out here anymore.

Always love this place. Pancakes for breakfast. Cold drinks for lunch at the tiki bar. Swim at the beach and come back for fish tacos and live music for dinner.

Donnie Baseball at the tiki hut bar is absolutely awesome!!! We've come to visit past 4 days because we knew he'd be there to go out of his way to take 10 star service for us! Thank you Donnie!!

Biscuits and Gravy was awful. Biscuit was still doughy, gravy was barely gravy (too thick). Omelet was pretty good but was some raw egg still in it. Price is a little on the high side but the view is amazing!

Go for the beach. Don't stay for the food. The food is middling to sub-par. Don't go here to get the sea food, just get whatever the cheapest burger is because they can't manage much more. If you get a …

The food was excellent and the service was excellent. The portions are huge! There's no way I could have finished it, and I did not eat another thing all day I was that full. Nice place

After a long day at the beach there is nothing better than the Beach Cafe. Cold drinks, hot delicious food, and the best sunsets on the planet. We don't stay anywhere else but on the Island. See you next year Beach Cafe!

Good food with plenty of choices to choose from. Pretty beaches, rented bikes and was able to ride anywhere we wanted to go as opposed to driving.

I loved this place up until the other day. We bring our kids here all the time for the beach and to eat. The other day we spent over $60 on food and drinks. As we were finishing the kids had already drank their sodas so I went up to see if …

Wouldn't go anywhere else for a great meal, perfect Pina Colada, and the best for Sun Set. The servers are outstanding.

We REALLY appreciated the ease of ordering and waiting for the food to arrive. The kids played in the sand, mom and dad appreciated the drinks from the bar! Beautiful sunset!

Good food delivered hot. Coffee hot. Eating outside under cover.5 kids with us under 5-chocolate milk was a plus. Staff kind of grumpy this morning. No smiles.

Fuzzy's has become our family's go-to for Taco Tuesday. Great food, reasonable prices, and friendly service. They also have a trivia contest that night if you're feeling competitive! We love Fuzzy's!

Nice area for scenery. The French toast wile is expensive it does come as a hearty portion. The home fry I wish had more flavor. It seems as if you boil the potato to get it soft and then toss on the skillet to crispen it up, although it really doesn't crispen up much.
