Snook Haven is located in a cypress swamp on the Myakka River about a mile down a dirt road off the highway. As old Florida as it gets. Outdoor dining with a boat ramp running though it.

They're most famous for their key lime pie. Won all sorts of awards. Also their fried grouper sandwich. Good quarter pound chili dog, too.

Service is slow enough to send even Jimmy Buffett up the wall. But some how you really don't care all that much.

A great stop for those driving Florida's Gulf Coast.
