Cruise by the shed from the Alafia River or
come on in on foot. A happening place with
good beer, wine and food from the snack shack
on weekends. A little piece of old Florida.
Lots of fun people, Rednecks,weekend bikers, Nascar fans
and people who just want a great view of the river.
Usually entertainment on Fri/Sat nights...Spend a
Sunday afternoon on the deck over looking the river.
What a great place....a little hard to find. Turn into the
trailer park and go straight in towards the river, park
and you're there. Check out their website.....Kids optional..

Less than 10-12 mins from Brandon, Fishhawk or Riverview....Keywest Style cafe, music, pub, family boat rentals and boat docks. This is a afternoon on the water fun beer cafe. Bring your flip-flops and remember what it was like in Keywest. This is on the Alafia River west of 75. Harleys and fast boats on display. Put your boat in at the ramp or pull it up to the docks. They also serve great food. They also have Boat Rentals to take the family out for a day on the river. They do have outdoor tables for food, but the party atmosphere on the weekends tends to be adults having fun listening to usually live music. I have been there many times and with the new grand opening Aug 24th/2008, they really did a great job upgrading the looks...Gary/2008...
