If you’re looking for a good dining experience near the beach, Cool Vibes on the Beach is a must-visit. The atmosphere is laid-back and inviting, perfectly complemented by incredibly friendly and attentive service.
The standout was easily the Elote Burger—it was cooked perfectly, juicy, and packed with bold flavors. Paired with a side of golden, crispy fries, the meal was a total 10/10. The pricing is very fair also. They did not have any beers on tap during our visit, but cans or bottles are available. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, the combination of great food and a welcoming environment makes this spot a place you will want to visit. I’ll definitely be back soon!

Update as of 1/10: I talked this place up to 6 of my closest friends, and let’s just say none of us are returning after today’s cluster…k. Again we were the only table in the place, sure there were 8 of us calm, catching up and each ordered, food came out one at a time at a snail’s pace, ok maybe short staffed? Then many of us had issues w/ our order(feathers on wings, greasy fake cheese w/ salsa, chicken added on a vegetarian salad, tons of tomatoes in a Caesar chicken wrap, a gross amount of sour mix in margarita-beer ordered instead) and charged incorrectly on two of the bills. We spent more than two hrs on sub par, expensive food. Sigh. Only worth 2 ⭐️ because the two burgers were decent, sure they were sent out 15 mins apart, but I mean at least they could eat them. Oh each party got 10% off, so that was nice of her.
We walked in on NY day around noon and were the only table in restaurant. Our server was friendly, attentive and gave some suggestions. My husband and I ordered three appetizers, fried green tomatoes, mozzarella sticks and wings. For some reason, it took a very long time for our food to come out, close to 45 mins, maybe it would’ve been tolerable if we were drinking and killing time? Strange since we were the only table for a while until a party of two walked in. The food was good, the fried green tomatoes were flavorful enough, the mozzarella sticks were gooey, piping hot and crispy then the wings were the ⭐️ of the meal. I asked our server(wish I asked her name) recommended the pineapple whiskey and man we finally found good wings in the city(well besides one other fav). They were perfectly crisp smothered in sauce and drool worthy. We will definitely be back for the wings.

Jessica, one of the owners is absolutely amazing. My fiancé and I had an engagement party planned for Sunday the 10th. Rain decided to put a pin in our plans very last minute and we had to rush to find a new venue. I happen to post on Seminole happenings and this angel of a human being Jessica, messaged me saying that she could possibly help. We were very tight on budget and so she waved the rental fee and let us only get food from their establishment. It was very kind of a stranger to do. They went above and beyond with their service. All of the bartenders and staff were amazing. The decorations were cute and girly. Food was amazing 10 out of 10. Decent portions! They have cornhole, pool tables, dartboards, and table games. If you can, I would 100% host your holiday parties, your birthdays or anything like that at this establishment, they will really take care of you. And can’t forget to mention Coreena who is one of the managers. She was an absolute doll! She was our main point of contact that night, and she did amazing helping me set up and answering all my questions. And she’s been guarding my beloved jacket that I left there. Will definitely use this place again in the future.

Cool Vibes Beach Bar has a fun, lively atmosphere without feeling over the top. It’s a great place to hang out, enjoy good food, and relax.
The puzzles are a cool touch — and Sixty is definitely the best at them.
Good food, good vibes, and a spot I’d recommend checking out!

Amazing spot on the beach for food and drink. $3.99 drinks on Tuesday free pool on Thursday. They have an industry night on Wednesday for people in Hospitality. Lots of space and games to play like darts and pool. Live music and karaoke through out the week. Food is amazing, I recommend the grouper sandwich and poutine. Amazing place that is family friendly! Menu is available until 2:30AM!! <— HUGE WIN!!

Seems like a pretty cool spot. We went on a dead night so seemed a little roomy (not so cozy) but would love to circle back on a busy packed out night to get the full vibe. Food was decent — prices were higher then expected but pair it with a drink special and it evens out.

We loved Cool Vibes on the Beach in St. Pete’s! It was super family-friendly, and the food and drinks were great. I especially loved how they had so many games to play with family – it made it such a fun experience for our group of 12. The worker who helped us was amazing and took great care of us. Also, their children’s menu is hilarious – it gave me a good laugh! Highly recommend this bar to anyone in the area. Thanks for the awesome service!

You may be tempted, like I was, to get some beach eats here because Paradise Grill at Upham Beach is closed for renovations. Do not. I went at about 2pm on a a Friday and wanted shrimp ceviche and fish spread. They were out of these. Hummus? Out of this too. I ended up ordering chicken bacon wrap with fries, a slice of cake and a bottle of water and waited 45 minutes for it to come out of the kitchen. When we opened the bags at the beach we realized we were missing utensils and napkins and they gave us a Southwestern wrap. The food itself? Edible, but I didn’t get the wrap I ordered and the cake tasted like a teenager’s home ec project. The 2 stars for service are for the servers, who had nothing to do with what happened in the kitchen and who did what they could to hurry the food along. They apologized profusely for the stunningly incompetent cook but couldn’t do much more. Eat anywhere but here.
