  We live on the island & this is our favorite place to go. We love the atmosphere, the price of food & drinks is very reasonable & always great. We order for pickup online which is easy & our order is ready in 20-30min. Parking can be difficult but we take our golf cart so it’s not a problem for us. If you park down the road or are renting on the island you can easily call Stumpy’s for a free ride on their golf cart. Don’t forget to tip the driver! It’s also on the water so you can enjoy the boats & kayaks going by. It’s casual beachy dining. They also have soft serve ice cream with or without alcohol!!

  Beachcomber Trading Post is in a beautiful location right on the bay with waterfront dining and a great laid-back atmosphere. It’s really nice watching boats pull right up to the dock while people come in to dine. They also have live music which adds to the fun vibe. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the comfort food was good and satisfying. Overall a very enjoyable spot to relax, grab a bite, and enjoy the water views. The only downside is parking can be a bit limited, but the location and atmosphere make it worth the visit.

  Cute spot on the water. They serve pastries from Abbes donuts serve coffee; have a full bar and serve food which we do see there is a food truck outside. We had mozzarella sticks, expresso martinis and a blueberry lemonade. The mozzarella sticks were ok but 1 was blown out. We did enjoy our drinks. We used the bathroom and it was not as clean as we were expecting. There was food in the sink, floor needed to be cleaned and there was feces all in the toilet bowl and def beeds to be cleaned. It was raining outside and there is a place to pull up on your boat. We will try to stop back to enjoy the outdoors and try a few other things.

  Outstanding! Other restaurants take note, Beachcomber Trading Post is by far the best on the water restaurant from Englewood to Osprey and beyond!! Excellent menu, we had delicious burgers and fries (not tourist trap burgers), a great keylime pie cocktail and a beer, and for dessert, better than Disney vanilla pineapple sole whip swirl softserve. The atmosphere there is perfect, lots of water view seating, comfortable and cute seating/tables, pleasant servers, music not too load - can hear but you don’t have to shout to hear who you are with, then the same goes for the live musician when they started playing. Oh, and reasonably priced, especially for being on the water. Can’t wait to come back! FYI, we are locals, so our perspective is not from vacation rose colored glasses.

  This was our first time trying the restaurant. I have heard good things about the food so I’ve always wanted to go. First, our server was not attentive, she seemed sweet, but did not check on us but a couple times. Someone other than our server dropped off the food and we were halfway through our food when the server came out and asked if everything was still good, I said yes, then she said if you need anything let me know and then went back inside. She came out one more time to drop off the bill and I asked for a box, she dropped the box off and I was waiting for her to come back and get my card and we were sitting another 10-15 mins so I walked inside and gave one of the workers my payment. The chicken tenders were thin, definitely not like the picture online, the burger was pretty good, but it wasn’t like omg this is really good. I would go back, just wasn’t impressed.
