Where to Eat
Anna Maria Island is home to award-winning bistros, cafes, and restaurants. Many national magazines have recognized Anna Maria Island for its unique tastes, phenomenal on-the-water locations, and impeccable service.
From rustic Tiki bars on the backside to elegant bistros illuminated by sunset or candlelight, meals are memories to be savored on Anna Maria Island. The ambiance and views of the restaurant are as important as the food being served.
Our Gulf-front or bay-side dining restaurants serve a special Anna Maria blend of flavor. Savor seafood delights or gourmet cuisine ranging from British, French, German, Italian, Asian, and Spanish to Florida favorites. And FYI, Holmes Beach boasts some of the island’s best known Burger Joints around!!
How fresh is the catch of the day? Our waters are home to grouper, red snapper, mullet, and blue crab. Bay-side or gulf-side, outdoors or in, sunrise or sunset, Anna Maria Island locals invite you to enjoy their secret to island living — cool breezes, the sound of the waves crashing into the shore, star-filled skies, and a dining experience like no other.
These are some of our favorites!
