Don't go here if you don't like eclectic, funky atmosphere. Old hotel converted into a beach bar. No riff raff here. Bartenders wear cool bathing suits and bar has water running through it! Employees give great service. Kitchen is closed right now but good food can be ordered and delivered from their sister restaurant. Volleyball and fun beach games to... More

It is a good place to go to prime for the evening, good drink specials pool tables. It would be nice if the had more in the way of entertainment like live music, but basically it is just a bar/lounge.

I live in the area and I have been to the Tow many times. Let me tell you about the last two and final times. You can't run a tab without handing over your credit card. So I pay cash. I bought one beer and gave the barmaid a twenty dollar bill,she threw the change in her tip jar. I... More

The Undertow is awesome. Sits right on the beach. Volleyball out back. Beautiful and sweet bartenders. More craft beers than I can count. Renovated open air pool room. Food delivered from Smileys. Come enjoy a beautiful Gulf sunset at the best beach bar on SPB!

Went here fir the first time this past weekend. Great spot on the beach to sit and enjoy the views with drinks. Only bad thing is no food is served. There is an independent food stand just outside the doors that sells pizza/hotdogs. If you want more than that to eat your out of luck.

The Undertow is one of my favorite places ever! He hung out there on a girl's trip and had a fantastic time. The food is really good. The tuna sandwich and burgers are to die for, and the price is great. Watch out for the birds though. I had some fries sitting on the table and a bird flew down... More

Went here because we were staying next door. The undertow is apparently under construction. They are renovating so don't be alarmed by appearance. The beers are cold and prices are good for area. Views from patio bar is great. It's hard not to have a great view anywhere on St Pete. The bartender that waited on us the first day... More

Found this place by accident, was staying near by and it seemed quite difficult to get some late night drinks, however this place was perfect, it didnt look the most welcoming of bars and certainly some of the staff needed a course in hospitality, but that said, it was a fun place to be in the evening, located right on...

My parents and I found this bar last year and loved the atmosphere. I think we spent four out of our five sunsets sitting at this bar. There is nothing like watching the sun set,digging your toes in the sand,and sipping on a cold beer! This place is certainly NOT the Don, but we were looking for low key place,... More
