Absolutely check out The Kokonut Hut! Great atmosphere on the beach with amazing sunset views. We stopped here by happy accident while driving by after dinner when we saw live music. There are two parking lots across the street so ample parking. The live music was great, we came back here several times and each evening had live music (seemed to wrap up between 7:30-8pm). The atmosphere is wonderful, right on the beach. One night was chilly so they had plenty of heaters to keep everyone warm. The drinks, food, desserts were great. Didn’t realize they had breakfast so we stopped here one morning, there was barely anyone there so I’m guessing most don’t realize it’s a breakfast option because the breakfast was amazing with a vast menu. I didn’t get any pictures of the food but the banana chocolate latte was phenomenal as was the bloody Mary my husband had. Kids loved their food too. We visited 4 times while on our trip. The kids were able to play on the beach while we had drinks.

Great on the beach bar and restaurant. The service was exceptional.. The food was great. And how do you beat an incredible view of the ocean. But, just like any tourist spot on the island it is going to be expensive. Our adult children and their wives all had lunch and adult beverages and our bill was over $300.00. The actual cost of the food wasn’t bad but of course the drinks are high. But not more than any other restaurant around.

Beautiful location! They have parking which is key. We were here visiting with a soccer team.
They accommodated our large party and being able to let all the kids play in the sand to get their energy out was great and allowed the parents to relax and enjoyed a drink.
My husband loved the fish tacos and spent his time in the shade with the team and I spent my time on the beach soaking in the view and the sunshine.

This place is it! Huge bar with a bunch of seating, tables over looking the beach, huts to provide shade after a long day in the beach. The food is great! Had a cheeseburger (incredible) the first day and the Anna Maria salad the next! Service is attentive and friendly! Delicious food and drinks! (Pina colada in a coconut!)

The Kokonut Hut at Bradenton Beach is an absolute win.
I ordered the blackened grouper tacos, and they were spot on—perfectly seasoned, fresh, and cooked just right. You can taste the quality in every bite. My wife went with the double smash burger, and it was everything you want in a burger: juicy, flavorful, and done right.
The atmosphere is what really seals it. Laid-back, beachy, relaxed—no rush, no hype, just good food and good vibes. It’s the kind of place where you sit back, breathe, and actually enjoy the moment.
And the best part? When you’re done eating, you step outside and finish the evening with a walk on the beach. That’s hard to beat.
If you’re in Bradenton Beach, this place is a must.

Know going in that you’re paying for the location. Be ok with that. And if you don’t care about how much you pay for the equivalent of cafeteria type dishes because you’re in love with eating on the beach especially during sunset then this is your place. Food was basic. Sides are cold likely due to plating too early. Odd — they make drinks, serve ice, yet have no access to drinkable water unless you pay $2.00 for a basic 12 ounce plastic water available at your local Wal Mart in a case for the same price. The same goes for soda. An 8 ounce can costs $4.00.

We went about 10am so the parking was easy, with plenty of space! The food and server were amazing! My husband and I sat right on the beach enjoying the ocean view. They make a mean shot of espresso!!! We will definitely be back!

Loved this place! The view is amazing right by the water! and the vibe is super chill. The staff was really friendly and on point the whole time.
They’ve got a big variety of food, so there’s something for everyone. We tried a few different things and everything was tasty. Great spot to relax, eat, and enjoy with friends or family Definitely coming back!

3 of us came here to grab a light lunch on the beach. They have a really nice setup with alot of tables under a pavilion and umbrellas to give you nice shade. We ordered just a bunch of appetizers to eat. The coconut shrimp, grouper bites, chips and dip, and calamari. I have to say all was cooked excellent and really nice sized portions. You could tell the seafood was fresh and I highly recommend the grouper bites. The service was fast and enjoyable. After you can walk some of the most beautiful beaches in the gulf or check out Anna Marie Island. They do have a giant selection of specialty drinks and beers as well
