1526.0. "Innisbrook" by SIOG::KNIGHT () Wed May 20 1992 09:51

    I will be visiting Innisbrook in September for 10 days of
    golf.  We have been there a few years ago and really loved
    it.  Can anyone recommend restaurants in and around the resort.

    Is this Innisbrook in Clearwater Fla?
    
    If so, go to 'The Lobster Pot'. It's either in Clearwater or
    St.Petersberg, but not far either way. It's a gourmet seafood place,
    but not that expensive and not very formal. Outstanding food, don't
    forget the key lime pie for desert (best I've had). This place has a 
    very well deserved reputation, but is not at all pretentious.
    
    A good lunch spot is the original Hooters on the Courtney Campbell
    Causeway in Clearwater. Good food (grouper sandwich with cheese), they
    are known for their wings and beautiful waitresses. Feel free to bring
    your wife/girlfriend. It's very casual and friendly. The waitresses
    are quite an eyefull, but they are clothed and always in good spirits,
    it's not a 'dirty' atmosphere at all. Check out the picture of Jack
    Nicklaus on the wall by the front door, he looks like he's having a
    good time at Hooters!!
    
    Go to Harbour Island in Downtown Tampa at night. Many restaurants and
    clubs with entertainment there. Check out Blueberry Hill, a great
    'oldies' club or there is also a club that has live jazz outside.
    My favorite restaurant there is (I can't remember the name) something
    like the 'lighthouse' or some name like that. It's on the corner of the
    island where the boat docks start. If you like fish-steak (like
    swordfish) and Marlin is on the menu, get it.
    
    After all that, I sure hope this is in Clearwater!
    I've been there and the golf is great at Innisbrook.

1526.2Harbour Island...SCOOTS::henryBob HenryMon Jun 22 1992 14:2314
Harbour Island has 3 places worth looking at:

	Blueberry Hill
	Parkers Lighthouse (or Landings??)
	Columbia - Spanish flavor; my favorite of the three.

Its a bit of a drive from Innisbrook; but worth the trip for a least
one evening.

Hooters is good.  Also the Key West Bar and Grill on 60 going east from
Highway 19 is excellent.
