Nervous Nellie’s Crazy Waterfront Eatery

Fort Myers Beach, FL

Overview

We haven't made it to this bar yet, but here is what we know

One of Fort Myers Beach’s most popular waterfront restaurants, Nervous Nellie’s earns its reputation with an anything-but-nervous approach to food and fun. Oversized sandwiches, fresh Gulf seafood, giant souvenir-glass cocktails, and Nellie’s Colossal Chocolate Cake are the signatures: nothing here is understated. The bi-level colorful space has gorgeous dockside views of the boat traffic, live music keeps the energy consistently high, and the 32-oz rum bucket has contributed to more than a few legendary evenings. Happy hour runs daily 3–6 PM. Fort Myers Beach’s best waterfront restaurant by local consensus for good reason.

Worth pairing with the rest of beach bars across Florida.
