If you’ve been dreamin’ of palm trees, laid-back island vibes, and a spot where you can sip a piña colada with your toes practically in the water—then let me introduce you to your new happy place: The Getaway, located at 13090 Gandy Blvd N, St. Petersburg, FL 33702, right near the Hillsborough-Pinellas line and just a short cruise from Tampa proper. This isn’t your average waterfront hangout—it’s a whole mood, y’all. We’re talkin’ tropical tiki huts, white sand beneath your feet, and those salty breezes rollin’ in from the bay that make you feel like you’re on vacation—even if it’s just your lunch break. The Getaway is perched right on the shores of Tampa Bay, and it’s seriously one of the most Instagrammable spots in the area, but it ain’t just about the views. The food here is legit. You’ll find everything from Gulf-fresh fish tacos to juicy burgers, coconut shrimp, and even vegan-friendly bites for the plant-based crowd. And don’t even get me started on the drink menu—craft cocktails flow like the tide, with tropical faves like rum runners, mojitos, and frozen margaritas that'll have you feelin' beachy in no time.
But what really sets The Getaway apart is the experience. You’re not just grabbing a meal here—you’re diving headfirst into that beach bar lifestyle. Live music often drifts through the air, locals and tourists mix at picnic tables, and it’s totally normal to see folks roll up on kayaks, paddleboards, or boats thanks to their convenient dock access. This spot truly leans into Florida’s laid-back coastal culture and gives you a slice of paradise without ever leaving Tampa Bay. And if you’re all about the outdoors, you’ll be happy to know that Weedon Island Preserve is just minutes away—perfect for nature walks, birdwatching, or kayaking through mangroves before heading over to The Getaway to cool off with a cold drink and killer sunset views.
Speaking of sunsets—yeah, you’ll wanna stay for those. The way the sky explodes in pinks, oranges, and purples over the water is pure magic. Whether you’re kickin’ back with a group of friends, on a date night, or just flying solo for some well-deserved chill time, this place makes you feel like you’ve hit the refresh button on life. Even the parking lot feels more relaxed than most Tampa spots, which—if you’ve ever circled downtown looking for a spot—you’ll appreciate big time.
Bottom line? The Getaway lives up to its name. It’s that sweet little escape from the daily grind where you can breathe easy, laugh loud, and soak up everything that makes Florida so dang special.
