About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for scenic views
  • Kid-friendly
Angler & Ale, an amazing restaurant where you can grab a waterfront table, dig into some of the Key’s favorite dishes, and wash it down with a frosty cold, fresh-from-the-tap brew or a crafted cocktail. Better yet, bring in your own catch for a hook-and-cook feast prepared by our expert chefs. Great service. Delicious food. Icy-cold beer. Doesn’t get any better than that. Our outdoor seating is non reservable and based on availability at the time of your seating.

    View was nice and the server, Rain, was wonderful! She was very efficient and friendly. Both my husband and I ordered different fish dishes and the fish was cold on both plates. Not a good value for the amount of food and sides you get. Key lime pie and service were the highlights of our dinner.

    Food was mediocre at best, for the price point I was expecting more. Service was poor. She took forever, forgot my drink and overall didn’t seem to want to be at work. Maybe it was an off night. View was spectacular! Not sure I would go again.

    We'd like to thank you for sharing this important feedback. It's unfortunate that we did not leave a better impression with our offerings, and we apologize for service that is not representative of our standards. This is not typical of a visit with us, and we sincerely hope you'll consider returning, as we know we can provide a much better dining experience. Sincerely, Hawks Cay Resort Management

    Food was great, cool ambience, waitress wasn’t very knowledgeable/helpful with food allergies and seemed to just blow it off like it was no big deal.

    The manager was very nice, I’ll start with that. Service was not great, waited a very long time for our server to come out, our salads came out with our entrees (would have preferred them to come out earlier) Not the fault of the restaurant but the bugs outside are really bad right now. Food is mediocre and it was $200 for a party of 4 with no apps or alcoholic drinks.
    Angler & Ale at Hawks CayResponded on June 23, 2025
    Dear Nikki, Thank you for your honest insight. It's wonderful to know our manager left a positive impression; however, we sincerely regret that your overall dining experience fell short of expectations. Your insight is greatly appreciated and will be shared with the respective teams to ensure our high standards are being met and to seize any opportunity to improve. It is our hope that you will give us another chance to welcome you back to change your lasting impression. Sincerely, Hawks Cay Resort Management

    Ordered whole fried snapper and grilled Mahi the snapper was fine but the mahi was way overdone. Ceviche app was very good.

    Great family dinner with amazing views of the Marina and energetic live music. My daughter loved the seared scallops. Tuna nachos for a starter are great. The fresh hog fish and lobster also looed great. We timed our reservation to match the start of the 7 pm live music. Looking forward to return and have a drink at the bar and see which artist is performing. The manager Garlin and Kesha took great care of us.
