The Ugly Grouper

Holmes Beach, FL

Overview

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

Lively open-air tiki bar on Anna Maria Island with live music, a massive metal grouper sculpture out front, ring toss and outdoor games, and a menu built around grouper tacos, skewers, and island-inspired bites. The kind of casual beach hangout where the vibe is always festive and the drinks are always cold.

We Haven’t Been Here Yet

The Beach Bar Bum hasn’t made it to The Ugly Grouper yet. Budget cuts, tragic. But there’s water, drinks, and zero shoe policy, so it’s on the list. We just need a brave soul to confirm it’s real, preferably with a cold drink in hand.
