  • Great for scenic views
Angler & Ale, an amazing restaurant where either before or after an astounding sunset cruise or snorkeling with Sole' Watersports, you can grab a waterfront table, dig into some of the Key’s favorite dishes, and wash it down with a frosty cold, fresh-from-the-tap brew or a crafted cocktail. Better yet, bring in your own catch for a hook-and-cook feast prepared by our expert chefs. Great food. Cold beer. And fishing. Doesn’t get any better than that. After booking your dining reservation, don't miss out booking your sunset cruise by clicking here: https://solewatersports.com/trips/tropical-sunset-cruise/

Couldn’t believe that at 5pm (right as the restaurant opened), they told me they were out of butter for my baked potato. There was also no bread or breadsticks before dinner that you would typically get at fine dining establishments.
