What Visitors Love

I have had the pleasure of visiting this establishment conveniently located directly on the beach on several occasions during my trips to the St. Pete area, and I am consistently impressed with the quality of the food. On this particular visit, I opted for the lobster roll, and I must say, it was a delightful experience. It was my first time trying this item here, and I was pleased to find that they were quite generous with the lobster. My husband, who is quite fond of salmon, thoroughly enjoyed his dish as well. It is worth noting that this restaurant tends to be quite popular, so I would advise arriving early or being prepared for a short wait. They offer lovely rooftop seating, which provides a beautiful ambiance. While I have enjoyed dining there in the past, the timing of our dinner made it a bit too warm to sit outside on this occasion, despite the presence of umbrellas. They do have a wonderful, fully shaded Tiki Bar on the rooftop, but as I preferred a table, we chose to dine indoors in their spacious dining room. The interior design evokes the feeling of being on a ship, which adds to the charm. We also indulged in their key lime pie, which was exceptionally delicious. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment.

The food was delicious, we sat outside to watch the sunset! The drinks were good but strong”can’t complain” 😂 we had shrimp and then got a big boil and it was unreal! Very good! Didn’t get pictures. Will definitely be back!

Food was great! Scenery was beautiful. Service was ok. From "I can't give you an approximate time" to seat at 7pm (on Wednesday, not busy) and the lack of checking in wasn't my favorite. I saw other staff talking to customers and getting to know the family/vibe. Sadly our waiter did not. I'd still recommend based on the excellent food.

We had an amazing time at Crabby Bill’s! The views were beautiful, the food was delicious, and we had such a great experience overall. We came for the all-you-can-eat crab legs and really enjoyed them—they definitely did not disappoint! 🦀 A special shoutout to Selina, our bartender, and Stacey, our waitress. They were both absolutely amazing, friendly, attentive, and made our experience even better. Great food, great service, and great views—we couldn’t have asked for a better time! We will definitely be back! 🦀🌴🍻

Been around for more than 40 years, Bill’s has a large indoor dining room and much smaller rooftop deck with bar and seating for 30. We waited 20 minutes for a table. Drinks very reasonable, everything served in plastic cups. Very good lobster tail and fresh grouper. Peel and eat shrimp tasty. Only miss: For these prices, offer real napkins, decent silverware and glasses for a bottle of wine. Overall, fun place on the beach for fresh seafood.
