The pina coladas were very good here. We got the grouper bites and they were ok – tasty but very thin. They have fans everywhere so you’re never really hot here. The view is unbeatable. It’s nice to be elevated above fort Myers beach and be able to see everything. They could’ve kept up better with cleaning up after people who were done eating and left. We couldn’t sit facing the beach because the bar counters had dirty plates even though the chairs were empty.

They used to give you much larger size frozen drinks for 14 bucks. They suddenly became stingy towards the end of 2025. Dinky sized drinks. If you’re going to charge the customer a lot of money, give them a lot.

During my recent visit to the License to Chill Bar & Grill, I was pleasantly surprised by the laid-back atmosphere and exceptional service. Nestled in a prime location with stunning ocean views, the bar & grill offers a perfect blend of relaxation and excitement.
The moment I arrived, I was greeted warmly by the staff, who made me feel instantly welcome. The decor is vibrant and inviting, with a tropical theme that sets the tone for a fun and leisurely experience. The outdoor seating area, in particular, is a highlight, allowing guests to enjoy the refreshing sea breeze and beautiful sunset views.
The menu is diverse and caters to a variety of tastes. I started with the Key West Chicken Quesadilla, which was packed with flavor and generously portioned. For my main course, I opted for the Grilled Mahi Mahi Tacos, which were fresh and perfectly cooked. The combination of flavors was delightful, and the presentation was top-notch.
What truly stood out was the service. Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable, offering excellent recommendations and ensuring our glasses were never empty. The cocktails are a must-try, especially the signature Margaritas, which are expertly crafted and incredibly refreshing.
My experience at License to Chill Bar & Grill was fantastic. Whether you’re looking to unwind after a day at the beach or enjoy a lively evening with friends, this spot has it all. I’ll definitely be returning on my next trip

We stayed in Ft. Myers for 4 nights and ate at numerous recommended eateries, and JWB was our favorite! The view was spectacular (large windows with expansive views of nothing but the Gulf), our server Tony was excellent (friendly and attentive!), and the food was delicious (fresh, flavorful and presented beautifully!).
After our meal we had a gorgeous sunset walk along the beach right behind the restaurant.
10 out of 10 recommend. We will definitely return! Thank you, Tony and chef, for a wonderful evening!

A cool place to hang out in a beautiful seeing. Great spot to get awesome sunset pics. The beer and cocktails are tourist prices. $5 for a bottle of beer during happy hour and $11 for a small rum and coke. There was a DJ spinning some nice tunes. The servers and bartenders were friendly.

Had a great breakfast here! The food was really good, but what made the experience stand out was our waitress, Hailey. She was super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. She definitely went above and beyond.

This place is easy to get to from Fort Myers beach! My hamburger and fries were delicious! Its part of the margaritaville resort so there is a lot of patio seating. Also there is an indoor area to checkout as well! The coffee shop on the resort grounds is a very good cup of coffee also!

We had the pleasure of having Molly as our server and everything was amazing! Having dietary restrictions I am always cautious, but she reassured me that everything was OK. She brought the Chef out and explained how my meal was prepared! That was above and beyond any expectations. Molly, thank you so much for an enjoyable experience and I cannot wait to come back to visit!
