Two Friends Patio Restaurant & Bar

Two Friends Patio Restaurant, a Key West icon since 1886, offers an unforgettable dining experience steeped in rich history and vibrant local culture. Once a pre-1886 saloon that survived Key West’s Great Fire, this TripAdvisor Top 10% Restaurant Worldwide is a must-visit destination for locals and travelers alike.

Guests can enjoy freshly prepared local seafood such as shrimp, lobster, conch, and oysters, as well as char-grilled steaks and burgers. Their award-winning Basin Street Broiled Oysters and the island-famous Bloody Mary, crowned Best in Key West, are crowd favorites. With live music every day from 8 a.m. to close, karaoke nights on Fridays and Saturdays, and a relaxed open-air dining ambiance, it’s perfect for groups, families, and solo adventurers. Indulge in breakfast, lunch, or dinner on the covered patio or in the lively bar. Don’t miss the daily happy hour from 4–6 p.m. Two Friends Patio embodies the charm of Old Key West while delivering a contemporary experience filled with great food, music, and memories.
