The Chattaway

Really amazing place! Been there twice now. Everyone I've brought there has liked it a lot! 1st time we were there the owner came out and greeted us sat right down and asked how everything was and offered us a free cup of Lobster Bisque. It was amazing!! She told us her story and it was beautiful. I think she's 90 and she said she still comes and works everyday. The decor is so cool and we love the outside seating area. Food & drinks were awesome! Love the seasoned fries!

What a cute place! Staff a super friendly! Wish I'd gotten our waiters name (we say by the fence by the road at one of the two tablets), but he was really hospitable. The atmosphere on the outside patio was so nice with a performer and get guitar, too. They only accept cash but have an ATM inside. Going inside even more beautiful! Really liked this place!

This was our first time here and it was fabulous! You must know that it is CASH ONLY. They do have an ATM on site you can use. There is ample seating outside and some is covered and has fans. There is also limited seating inside. You also can choose to sit at the bar if you like. Our party had Fish and Chips, Blackened Grouper sandwich with cajun fries, Blackened Grouper sandwich with onion rings and the Seafood Platter. Everyone LOVED their food. They even brought us out a sample of their famous Lobster Chowder which I will come back for. Our server, Elijah, was very knowledgeable and friendly and didn't miss a beat. The only downside for me was that our soda was in a can so no free refills. (Bummer) Food, service, everything knocked out of the ballpark. Please get fountain drinks!!

Great outdoor dining spot at tables under sail shade, the bar or cabanas, live music also regularly scheduled. Good draft beer selection and so wanted the food to be good…on a couple of occasions enjoyed the conch fritters, but sweet potato fries were cold when served with hot fish? Promptly replaced. Filling chowder enough for a meal. Preordered the fried chicken specialty since it takes :30 to cook and boy was I feeling fried insides the next day ;( ugh. Great service. Family owned and operated forever and met the lovely owner Jill from the UK which explains the inside Tea Room. Available parking, could be challenging getting over the small entry bridge koi ponds. As mentioned, good place for outside hangouts.

I found this restaurant by reading a novel and the restaurant sounded so intriguing I looked it up and found it was a real place with really good reviews and I loved the pictures of the restaurant especially the bathtubs. So when we were in St Pete's we decided to eat there the food was great and our waiter Brody was a lot of fun and very informative. The food is excellent and I would recommend eating at this restaurant anytime you're in St Petersburg.
