Friendly Tavern

Great little dive bar right on the Madeira Strip beach in Fl that is also right across the street from a breathtaking beach that offers the most picturesque sunset views I've ever seen! It doesn't have a lot of parking available but it does offer friendly, fast service, outdoor seating, good food at a good price and often has entertainment like karaoke, trivia and live music - definitely a hidden treasure of Florida's Gulf Coast!

A tavern with no taps is interesting. Just bottles and cans. And there is no list to see. They have outdoor seating on the front deck. But they allow cigar smoking where the tables are. And with the front door open, it went right into the dining room. Luckily, someone shut the door because they were cold.It took a while. Enough the waitress told us they sent another guy to the kitchen to help out. There was only us and another table. I got a chicken ceasar salad, and my partner got the buffalo chicken wrap. 16 minutes later, they came out to say they were just waiting on the wrap. And yes, the other table had their food. 8 minutes later and it came out and was incorrect. Only one of us got a silverware set since I got a salad, and there was no other napkin for my partner. We noticed some tables had paper towel holders, but ours did not. It took me a while to get the waitress to come back to inform her the meal was incorrect. It was the salad. I said no dresses, and it was completely tossed in italian, not even ceasar. At that point, my partner was done eating with my help attacking his fries, and my patience had run out. It should not take hours to eat a simple meal when they are dead. I informed her of the issue and kindly asked her to remove it from my bill, which it was obvious it was not touched. I got a huge eye roll, and she walked away with it.They did remove it from our bill. My partner said the wrap was subpar, not hot, which is odd for the fact we waited for it. We do not need to go back ever. Friendly, they were not.

Come here for the food and drinks and stay for the karaoke. This is one of the few places around the area that serves food late and the service was good. There's karaoke a lot of nights so put your earplugs in or just join in and enjoy it. I choose the latter. Reasonably priced menus and good drink specials. Fun vibes

We went for the Karaoke and stayed for the drinks and atmosphere. Everyone involved with this tavern is well "friendly". Go check it out, go on Karaoke night. You will probably enjoy it

This place was a hoot and a half! We just stopped in for a drink and ended up staying all night because they had karaoke. Fun atmosphere, fun people!

Came here to have a couple of drinks and a little appetizer. We sat at a table outside and had to ask the waitress to clean off the table. Didn't look like they wipe down the tables after patrons are there. Had no tap beers(a tavern with no tap beers-very odd) and did have wine but was served in a small plastic cup. We ordered the nachos to split-nachos were ok but needed more chips and also would have been nice to have two small plates besides the plate of nachos. We were given another platter which I used but my husband had to resort to using the paper towels on the table for a "plate." Waitress was fine but kept pushing us to go inside and "sing karaoke' which we were not going to do. I went to use the restroom before we left and was greeted by a stall full of vomit. We left as quickly as we could-would not recommend this place at all. Not a "friendly" place at all....

Impeccable service from Danielle, she was bartending also due to a short staff. Very attentive, kept checking on us. Food was great. Thank you

I have been going to this place since 2015. This is one of my favorite spots on the beach. The staff here is awesome. I always feel welcomed here & have a great time. The drinks are strong & the food is delicious. It gives a bit of an old school Florida vibe. Lots of locals hang here, but all are welcome.

post that you're still closed and not near opening! We came a long way to spend NYE here and it looks like nothing has been done.

Good food nice environment I forgot to take pictures Was visiting for a friends wedding and this place is in walking distance from the beach!
