ENCHANTING PIECE OF HEAVEN!! – When you cross that little bridge from the parking lot into the courtyard, it is like stepping into another world.

There are many, many clawfoot bathtubs, used as planters and with beauiful painted Florida scenes on each tub. The courtyard is surrounded by so many different plants and trees. There are picnic tables and round tables, some positioned under overhangs and some under umbrellas.

In the winter time there is always a bonfire and heaters to keep you warm. Inside there are a few tables. But there is also a dining room where “High-Tea” is held. A beautiful old dining room table that seats about 16 people with tablecloth and gorgeous tableware. There are china cabinets filled with awesome china and and crystal . Group parties come to have tea and goodies in the dining room.

There is a quaint bar over at one end of the outside restaurant. There is also a small stage where you can hear really great entertainers. There is always great music surrounding you even when (real entertainers) are not present. Great for group parties, or just the two of you. Look for the colorful Gecco who resides over the doorway to the restrooms, he is about 6 ft. long, but very harmless!

And then there is THE FOOD!!!! A great variety on the menu. The very BEST burger ever and the onion rings are to die for, you could wear them for bracelets they are so big. All the prices are very reasonable.

We drive all the way from Lakeland to eat here and the owners, Jill and Debbie are the BEST!!! DON’T MISS THIS ENCHANTING LITTLE BIT OF HEAVEN.

“Funky Old Florida Restaurant – with a British Flair” — The menu selection should serve any taste, but their specialty is the Chattaburger – one of the best burgers in town. Afternoon tea is served indoors in air conditioned comfort. Check the schedule for live music and evening specials.

Gillian and her team continue to make this a very special place to enjoy your burger or whatever you choose. A unique place to eat, where you can enjoy your food in a garden setting. We have been coming here for years and the food and service is always good.

“Very Old St Petersburg Flair” — This is a hangout for many locals of St. Petersburg. We had the fresh grouper and it was excellent. The seating was outside but the seating was shaded and there were plenty of fans. They serve wine and beer for sure – not sure about other forms of alcohol. The dinners were about $ 10.00 – $ 15.00. This is a CASH ONLY establishment, so please keep that in mind. It is not a place for “special celebrations” – just more for a comfy evening with some of the locals.

“Chattaway Is A St. Pete Institution That Everyone Should Visit at Least Once” — When I attended Eckerd College in the 1970s, this was the place to hang out then and still is. Best to go when the weather is comfortable and avoid the hot, muggy days of Florida summer.

They are known for their Chattaway Burger but other menu items are great too. They have great daily specials like one night 2 burgers, fries and pitcher of beer for $19.

Visiting the area? Try it for lunch, outdoors with a funky decor.

“Unusual Place” — This spot is a riot of color and decoration. You enter past a pond full of immense koi and bathtubs planted with flowers. There’s varied outdoor seating, most of it covered, and a sedate dining room that reminds you of Brighton Beach. Anglophile paraphernalia abound. Staff is warm and friendly. Our young waiter Jeff couldn’t have been sweeter. The astonishingly good lobster chowder makes you sit up and take notice. The Chattaway Burger does the same. It’s like a really good burger you remember from “the old days.”
