7 Best Bars near Captiva

“We arrived at Tween Waters pretty late and we were happy that the Shipyard was still open. Frank was our server and was excellent. We ordered the ceviche for an appetizer and it was excellent! We both then ordered the grilled grouper sandwich and it was very good as well. It suffered by comparison to Lazy Flamingo's Mesquite grilled grouper sandwich but it's still a great sandwich.“

“It was a incredible time the captain was very nice the sunset was spectacular very nice experience I would recommend that anyone that even has the slightest thought about doing it should definitely do it you will not regret it in any way what so even. The sunsets are overwhelming. Thank you so much for the opportunity to enjoy the experience“

“Delightful!Mostly retierees and young families today yet still had that Marina Bar vibe... Sports on the TVs, folks chatting about travel, weather and sports. I came for the grouper and was not dissapointed. Fresh and delishous!Highly recommend. Want to try their Yucatan Shrimp next time.“

“We had lunch at Blue Dog yesterday April 24 and OMG it was amazing. Having lived here 7 years in Florida we’ve been to Blue Dog many times but never ate outside on their patio. Our server Karen Bacalla was certainly in her wheelhouse. Karen was serving multiple tables and personalizing everyone on the patio made it like a party atmosphere and nobody knew each other when we sat down. We felt like VIP’s Our hats off to the chef, the peel & eat shrimp appetizer was huge and the old bay seasoning never disappointed. My coconut rum butter sauced mahi mahi with pina colada rice was absolutely the best very delicious. My husband had grouper bites to die for, Karen recommended that as well as the She crab soup and it’s a MUST have dish.Thank you Karen and Blue Dog for serving such wonderful dishes and having an amazing atmosphere ? we’ll be back for sure ? ?.“

“CHEESEBURGER IN PARADISE -About a 10 minute scenic bicycle ride from where we stay in Florida sits Sanibel’s American Legion Post 123. We’ve passed this place many times, always seeing the “Public Welcome” sign. I wondered what the deal was so I did a quick Internet search. The ‘typical’ review said “Best Cheeseburger on the island”. Really, could this be? On our last day in town Cindy and I took the bike ride, curious to check it out.If you prefer restaurants with a fancy decor and an extensive menu I recommend avoiding this place. You also may want to avoid it if you don’t like dogs. The Post Commander’s dog Abby is a Regular at the bar.If you enjoy hanging with some Veterans and real locals, while eating an incredible Burger with a cold Beer then this place is for you. The 8 ounce Burger was so good that I had to ask: “Is this a special blend of meat?” He said “No, but the local butcher grinds it to our spec, fresh every morning.”This was a great local experience and we’ll be bicycling there again.#CaptainCooksBackyard #AmericanLegion #eatlocal #sanibel #sanibelisland #cheeseburgers“

“I've been many times and have always had delicious food. Pizzas, fried chicken sandwich, Philly cheese steak, chicken tacos, but my favorite is the fried Haddock sandwich.Parking: Steph is a great cook and she usually checks up with customers to make sure they are satisfied and happy with their food. I'm enjoying new items on the menu too.“

“Wow! Another great experience at Traders. While the prices are a little high, it's all worth it. Many of our party of 8 got the grouper special and raved about it. The bisque and gumbo was also outstanding as was the spinach salad with chicken. The cocktail "pours" were super generous and worth the price.Peter Redpath was singing and having been there before to hear him, it did not disappoint. If you like Buffett, Croce, Simon and Garfunkle and James Taylor type songs you have to come to Traders for Peter. Obviously we will be back.“
