Fun Directory
Sun Garden Cafe
We love this spot for breakfast. Everything is fresh and delicious. Plus, they serve mimosas, bloody mary's and other adult beverages.
Another Broken Egg Cafe
A breakfast hot spot. Also serves adult beverages if you're ready to start day drinking.
The Cottage
The Cottage focuses on inventive, seasonal cuisine from around the world; utilizing local farms, sustainable meats and seafood. This is one of our favorite places for a nice dinner, but it's also a great spot for lunch, apps and cocktails with Happy Hour from 11am - 6pm Monday - Friday. If you dine here for dinner, we recommend sitting in the back patio area. It's a beautiful quaint space with live music.
Summer House Steak & Seafood
An elegant and relaxed restaurant spot for dinner. This is a newer restaurant in the village. We went got the first time the end of last year and had a great experience. We definitely recommend if you’re looking for a fancy date night.
Daiquiri Deck Siesta Key Village
This spot is fun for grabbing a frozen drink under the hot sun. They have a large menu of daiquiri options and mixes. You can also catch live music depending on the day/time you swing through.
S.K.O.B (Siesta Key Oyster Bar)
Live outdoor music. Write on a dollar bill and stick it on the walls of the bar.
Gilligan's Island Bar & Grill
Fun tiki-style bar. Great for drinks and/or bar food.
The Beach Club
The Beach Club has live local bands and DJ's playing 7 nights week. If you're looking for a dance floor, this is probably the only spot in Siesta Key. They also serve food and cocktail specials daily, but we've never been here to eat.
The Old Salty Dog Siesta Key
British pub offering beer-battered hot dogs & other bar eats. Plus, Live music!
Publix Super Market at Sarasota Pavilion
We recommend stocking up on groceries and adult beverages at Publix in Sarasota. There's also a Costco next door if you have a membership. (FYI: Florida state requires a Costco membership to purchase from their liquor store unlike in Minnesota). No car? Use Instacart!
Morton's Siesta Market
Morton's Siesta Key Market is a cute little grocery store located right in the Siesta Key village which is perfect for convenience. Siesta Village Liquors is right next door.
Robin Hood Rentals
If you need to rent items for the beach or activities, Robinhood Rentals can hook you up with: Beach Chairs, Beach Umbrellas, Coolers, Paddle Boards and Body / Boogie Boards, Scooters, Scooter Cars, etc.
Fun Boat Tours (Siesta Key Marina)
Fun Boat Tours operates out of the Siesta Key Marina. They offer various boat tours including Sunset, Dolphin and Private Cruises, as well as Fishing Tours.
Siesta Key Drum Circle (Sundays at Sunset)
Every Sunday at Sunset, the drum circle takes place on the beach. It's free and informal. A group of locals gather every Sunday to this specific spot on the beach, they draw a circle in the sand, and drum up some beats. Sit down and enjoy the sounds or get up and feel the rhythm in your feet. Keep in mind, they don't allow alcohol at this event so if you bring an adult beverage, just keep it incognito. If your stay in Siesta Key includes a Sunday evening, the drum circle is definitely worth checking out. We always make a point to attend even if it's just for a few moments. The energy and vibe is lively and entertaining.
Siesta Key Farmers Market (Sundays 9am - 1pm)
Every Sunday from 9am to 1pm, you'll find Ocean Blvd filled with various vendors offering fresh produce, arts, crafts, jewelry and more.
