Whether it's fast food eating, a beach picnic, a night of bar hopping, or a fine gourmet dinner with wine, the Florida Keys offer a variety of food and drinks to rival its natural beauty. Many facilities listed here would fit in several categories, such as a restaurant bar that also does catering. We try to put the listings where they reflect the main focus of the establishments. (The numbers at the end of each listing are the month/year that the listing was originally added and later updated.)
