“The atmosphere was great, we were seated in the back at a half booth half chair table and it was very nice. Not too loud but lively, and our waitress was very friendly. I got the French onion soup and the teriyaki chicken bowl and both were delicious!“

“This is a great food option for a very tasty quick meal. everything is made to order so sometimes you have to wait a little bit. I can honestly say I’ve never minded waiting for my food to come up. The atmosphere is upbeat and friendly. The portions on the regular size potato are enough to feed two people.“

“Good coffee for starters. All meal choices are prepared in a tasty and generous manner. I always enjoy every selection I pick and I like trying a variety of meals. Personal favorites are. Pancakes are great! I enjoy the omelettes. Burgers are awesome. I highly recommend you try it. And for me, it's really convenient being across the street from my place.“

“We visited last night after a concert. Not knowing what to expect we were pleasantly surprised at the fast, friendly service and great food. That late Saturday night waitresses were short staffed and handling it like champs. Great job all around!“

“My wife and I met two other friends at the Clearwater/Safety Harbor location for Brunch Sunday Sept 6. We were immediately welcomed and seated at a booth and our server Devan come over to welcome us, go over the specialty meals of the day and take our drink order right away.
We then ordered our entrees and Devan again was very helpful and pleasant.
Our meals arrived quickly and were delicious. Everyone actually ate everything on our plates. During our meal Devan came by and checked on us every few minutes, refilling our drinks and making sure we were taken care of. We had an absolutely amazing visit with our friends and had everything we needed. Devan’s kind service made it a perfect brunch. We will return again for sure, and we will ask for a booth in Devan’s section!“

“Had the best time celebrating my wife’s birthday ! So much fun, great good, awesome crew and nice ship ! The sunset was spectacular !“

“This place is SOOOO good... Robert was amazing! 20/10 recommend! And that happy hour is 🔥! The dinner menu is crazy big and the breakfast menu is good as well. Will definitely go back! The hush puppies are insanely good! Great portion!“

“Hi...guys/gals, I almost swallowed your pick today. You make excellent and tall sandwiches that I like to order and will order again...and putting a pick in a sandwich is ok. Burying a pick where the customer can't see it, is not. Buy longer picks. Thank you for your good food.“

“I loved the North Atlantic Cod Dinner. the fish was so white and had a very mild taste. I substituted mashed potatoes & gravy instead of FF & broccoli w/cheese instead of Cole slaw. all i can say is Delicious!!! I am going back again tomorrow for a repeat of that awesome meal. Wish they had Culver's in NYS.“

“The Best steakhouse in Pinellas County! The Staff is great and Food is just Amazing! This place is a staple of the best fine dining in Pinellas! Randi and Jen are the best bartenders around!“

“Awesome environment and love eating there“

“Amazing customer service, thank you Fernando for getting it right.

I will openly admit that I can be a bit of a nuisance when I order my food. I am a very picky eater so there are only a handful of things I eat in restaurants. I also will order those things a particular way which is usually very rare for a server to accommodate. Fernando nailed it like no other did and im not exaggerating. I’m in my late 50’s, so to say that he brought my food exactly how I would have served myself better than anyone else had ever done is saying a lot. Enough for me to ask for the manager to compliment him. It was the managers suggestion to do a google review so here I am. I would like to also mention that it was nice that they have a gluten free menu which removed those concerns we usually have when my mother is with me. They also had alot of seating options which was nice.“

“The lamb bucatini was out of this world! And the brownie was soooo chocolate.“

“A beautiful venues and the locals are beautiful people. I love Downtown Clearwater.“

“Everything….. place and staff are awesome….Alicia is the best bartender ….. fun,friendly and professional“

“I tried their cookies at Holiday Lights at Safety Harbor and they were so delicious. The chocolate chip pistachio was amazing and my favorite.“

“Always great food. For our friends that enjoy a cocktail they now have a full bar“

“Excellent service like none ever. They really took it up 5 notches, new uniforms are beautiful, can't wait to come back! Not sure what happened, new management? Previous few times were great as well, but watching these girls go tonight was amazing! Keep it up!“

“Love your food, clean cafe and servers are nice. But, you need another cashier. Change is necessary or you will lose customers.“

“Fast service. Great atmosphere. And the food was delicious. I’ve had a lot of buffalo wing sauces and theirs was hands down the best I’ve ever had! It’s like a rue. Great value and Crystal was fantastic at making sure I had refills on my drinks. I wish there was one by me, but can’t wait to return.“

“We are from Cincinnati. We are a skyline family. It is very rare that our family does not have skyline once a week. So we were very glad to see that there was a skyline location near us during our vacation. We had great service and good food. I would rate it. A four-star would’ve gave them a five star, but they did not have a souvenir shirt in my size.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great place to stop in for lunch or dinner and a cold one !! Super friendly staff located in a private gated community Cove Cay, yet open to the public. Just tell them you’re going to AJ‘s at the gate. Beautiful marina waterfront views“

“I come in occasionally in the evening after work or for the late night happy hour menu. I usually sit at the bar & have been taken care of by Daniel several times! Always pleasant & great service with a smile. And twice by Stephanie who was also nice & attentive. Thank you for great service!“

“I have always enjoyed Cheddar’s restaurants.
There was a restaurant in Michigan that I frequently visited often and loved it . My husband has never been so I treated my husband to dinner, And unfortunately he was not impressed. He ordered his steak medium rare and he got medium. No he did not complain.
Margarita was delicious! My lemon pepper chicken was amazing. To be honest- Cheddars Does not have the best quality of steak. You’re paying a lower price for a lower grade. This is not a five star steak restaurant. If you’re expecting high-quality steak you will be disappointed. I had a great experience- My husband did not. I think I’ll be coming on my own next time :-(“

“everything waffle!!Yummmm“

“This was a great spot for dinner and a sunset view. The peel-and-eat shrimp were awesome, and our server Shane recommended some tasty drinks and the clam chowder. Luckily it's stone crab season, so the crab claws were fresh and delicious.“

“Very clean and friendly staff. Food was very good.“

“Absolutely the best brunch we have had anywhere in years. I highly recommend this fantastic restaurant!“

“Great food and great service“

“Be warned ⚠️ check your order before leaving. They don't check to make sure all your items are in the bag“

“Want good food at a good price? Look for Gaby's Family Restaurant. No shirt and ties here. This is where the working man sits to enjoy a great meal quickly and quietly. Food is well prepared and not overly seasoned like others. Great for Family breakfast or lunch. Enjoy!!!“

“Food is excellent. Service was not good. It took ten minutes to be acknowledged after being seated. And we were not asked if we wanted dessert when done. Is bread served with meal here?“

“Delicious food. Fun and engaging bartenders. I got to DJ for a corporate after party here. Everyone i worked with at Jimmy's were true team players.“

“We had breakfast and lunch here. We were at Clearwater Beach for a week and saw many restaurants/bars claiming to have the "best burger on the beach". Uh uh. This place has the juiciest burger I have had in a long time. The breakfast was excellent also. Friendly staff, great vibe!!!“

“I’ve known the family for years, great people, great business“

“Sadly the original location is relocating so we'll see how much of the old tavern atmosphere they are able to produce. Reliably good food,generous portions &friendly servers that make you want to return
The place to be on St Daddy's Day!“

“Our team recently held a team-building and social event at Brewlands, and the entire experience was fantastic from start to finish. The planning process was incredibly smooth, and Sara Dauskart was outstanding to work with. She made coordinating our event easy by helping with scheduling, food arrangements, and drink tickets, and she ensured that everything we requested was provided.

The team had a wonderful time competing in darts and pool, while also enjoying plenty of great conversation, laughter, and camaraderie. The atmosphere was perfect for both friendly competition and socializing.

Brewlands is an excellent venue for group gatherings. There is plenty of space for people to mingle, relax, and participate in games, making it easy for everyone to enjoy themselves. Our team had a great experience, and we would highly recommend Brewlands for team-building events, social outings, or any group get-together. Thank you for helping make our event such a success!“
