Palm Valley Outdoors
A local bait and tackle shop known as Palm Valley Outdoors transformed into a restaurant in historic Palm Valley. Located underneath the 210 Bridge in Palm Valley on the Intracoastal, Palm Valley Outdoors has been apart of the Palm Valley Heritage since 1946! This bait shop has been up and thriving since 2012. Locals like to call it a one stop bait shop. The bait and tackle shop offers frozen and live bait. These bait options include shrimp, crabs, minnows, fiddlers, squid and many more. Palm Valley Outdoors has bait options for offshore saltwater fishing, live inshore fishing, and freshwater fishing. The shop offers rods and reels, lures, lines, hooks, and kayak fishing gear. All of your boating and fishing needs can be met at this shop. They also sell iconic Palm Valley Outdoor t-shirts and sweatshirts! Palm Valley Outdoors offers a full line of fishing goods from many different brands such as Penn, Shimano, Quantum, Abu Garcia, and the list goes on and on! With unbeatable prices it's no wonder this store has been up and thriving for so long. Not only does it sell all fishing gear, the store also rents out kayaks and paddle boards. The convenient kayak launch is perfect for a day full of fun! Single and tandem kayaks are offered for rent with hourly prices starting at $10. The shop is also a certified YOLO paddle board dealer. If you are new to the area or are just looking for adventure, Palm Valley Outdoors also offers eco tours. These eco tours take you all around the Guana Reserve on the intracoastal. On top of the eco tours, fishing tours are also offered which include a rod, bait, and cooler to store all your fish!

After all of the success, Palm Valley Outdoors decided to open up a restaurant. The Palm Valley Bar and grill is attached to the bait and tackle shop. After years of perfecting and completely redecorating the inside of the restaurant this all scratch kitchen opened up their dine in bar and grill in March of 2016. This wasn't a quick and easy process. Before the doors officially opened the restaurant started off with a take-out only business with only 3 employees to see how locals responded to the food back in November of 2015! The original menu featured items like onion rings, chicken wings, hummus and pita, fried chicken sandwiches, pork sandwiches, brown sugar brisket sandwiches, quesadillas, and all grass fed beef burgers! These items were just the beginning of success. After months of trying to find only the best employees possible, the bar and grill finally opened! The menu dearly doubled, while still keeping fan favorites. Being on the water, seafood is a necessity. The menu expanded to include seafood options such as crab cakes, ahi tuna, fish dip, ceviche, oyster's rockefeller, raw oysters, seafood salad, fried shrimp poboy, fresh catch sandwich, tuna sandwich, fish tacos, crab cake tacos, and even more exquisite entrees! These entrees include a chicken picatta dish, stuffed flounder, cranberry pecan mani, grilled salmon, and a creamy shrimp and diver scallop linguine! On top of these great additions the restaurant also offers very unique dishes that can be found nowhere else. The French Canadian Tradition known as the poutine is featured on their menu! This could be described as a basket of steak fries with cheese curd, gravy, and the topping of your choice. Grilled polenta and friend plantains are also special to this local restaurant. However, one cannot go to Palm Valley Bar and Grill without trying the famous I.C. cookie. These massive fresh baked cookies come perfectly paired with your choice of vanilla or chocolate ice cream to create the best melt in your mouth ice cream sandwich of all time. The view can be compared to no other. The breathtaking Intracoastal can be seen from all areas of the restaurant. The best seat in the house would have to be on one of the dozen outside patio tables right on the water. Palm Valley Bar and Grill located in Palm Valley never disappoints.
