Bridge Tender Inn serves Florida style
If you’re looking for someplace with history, you’ll
appreciate Bridge Street in Bradenton Beach, and
the best location for original Florida food with a
view is the Bridge Tender Inn and Dockside Bar, located at 135 Bridge Street.
Bridge Tender Inn and Dockside Bar has been
around for decades and under the same ownership
for 27 years. It’s a landmark in an historic part of
Anna Maria Island.
The dining room holds up to 130 people and is
perfect for a rehearsal dinner, bridal shower or other
gathering. You can reserve the dining room and
tailor the Bridge Tender’s menu, featuring fresh seafood and other local dishes, to as casual or as formal
as you would like.
For smaller parties, you can reserve a section of
the dining room, with views of Sarasota Bay, the
Bridge Street Pier and Bridge Street. There also is
another area, Doc B’s Front Porch. The Bridge Tender and Dockside Bar also is accessible by water at
Marker 49 and has two docks available for customers.
