Skipper's Smokehouse

4.5

About this business

If you are ready to try smoked mullet, fried grouper, grilled catfish, or award-winning Gator Black Bean Chili, this is the place to go. Skipper's Smokehouse is a combination of a tropical Key West bar mixed with a lively restaurant with eccentric decorations. Add to that a dash of live nightly music and you will have your taste buds dancing and your toes tapping at the same time. This is always a happening nightspot and is one of the best concert venues around.

The trees, the music, the food, even the Swamp juice makes this place such a gem in Tampa.

I love this space, but it could use some repairs. Our bench and table fell apart as we were seated on it. Food and service and entertainment FANTASTIC!

I read all these posts from people who chose to dine at Skipppers, Wow, this isn't a chain eating establishment, so if that's what u are looking for, save your time and money. I been visiting Skippers since 1999 and never had a negative thing to say. The food is always on point, and Skippers offers meals that can't be found anywhere in the area. Yes, it is a rundown looking place, but don't be deceived by the appearance. It is very nostalgic !! I give 6 thumbs up !!

Please help me! I do want to like Skippers, but on the several occasions I've been there the food was horrible. I had a burger which was obviously frozen and dry as a desert. My friend had the grouper Reuben which was a total disaster. So unappealing. Based on these reviews, we are ordering the wrong food. Help!

Great place for live music. Truly has that "old florida" feel. Was a typical hot June evening. But at an outdoor venue would have appreciated a couple more fans or misters. Also, our bench seat was broken and kept tipping.
