At 900 Gulf Way in Pass-a-Grille, Paradise Grille sits on what many consider the prettiest stretch of beach in all of Pinellas County, the quiet, historic south end of St. Pete Beach where the Gulf meets Tampa Bay and the sand is wide and powdery white. This is the classic locals’ beach lunch spot: cold beer, a cold beer, grouper sandwich, and a view that requires no improvement. The casual walk-up setup means you can come straight off the beach and leave with something cold in your hand inside of two minutes. If you’ve spent any time on Pass-a-Grille, you’ve had lunch here.
