Good luck finding this place without a GPS. We only happened by on our way to the Old Wooden Bridge Cottages. In fact, it is only a block from the Old Wooden Bridge; so if you’re staying there, plan to have a meal at the No Name Pub at least once. Not only because the pizza really is very good, but also because of the added benefit not having to drive (wink wink).

When we walked in, we were met by the same attitude that you encounter throughout the keys; if you’re not a local, then you get an absent smile and nearly vacant service.

The Royal Pub pizza seems overpriced at $18.99 for a 12”, but it is delicious. Cut into 8 slices it could easily be shared by four people. My only complaint is that soda refills are not complimentary. Absurd, but not the end of the world.

Yes, nearly every inch of available wall space is covered by signed or otherwise decorated dollar bills. We excused ourselves from this particular tradition. You’ll notice that many bars throughout the Keys (and Florida in general) similarly decorated.

The food is expensive, but it is good.

If you’re staying on, or visiting Big Pine Key (or No Name Key), include the No Name Pub in your plans. However, I wouldn’t make a special trip.

This place has great food, and was worth the wait. The day we were there was rainy, so no outdoor seating was available. When we first arrived, we were asked to wait outside (to avoid having too many people inside) if we didn't want to sit at the bar (which we didn't want to do with a small child). So we stood outside with others while it was sprinkling. When it started raining harder, they finally let us come inside to a small hallway until our table was ready. But like I said, the food was good. My advice would be to avoid going there during bad weather.

i shouldn't tell anyone this because we have to wait in line now to get in to our favorite place in the keys. you have to see it to believe it but once you go you'll never forget it.

What a piece of Keys history! It was fun to get lost trying to find this place! Saw many key deers on our many dead ends and u-turns. Finally called for directions. Was well worth it! Fun to people watch and talk to locals. Great pizza and nachos. Service was the best in the Keys. Can't wait to go back!
