The Getaway

On Tuesdays, dogs are welcome to join you at The Getaway as you enjoy the waterfront location and dine on locally sourced seafood, and sip on island cocktails from the tiki bar. Menu favorites at this St. Petersburg, FL restaurant include smoked fish spread and crackers, conch fritters, tacos filled with smoked chicken or fried shrimp or oysters, juicy burgers topped with grilled pineapple and pulled pork and crispy salads. Wash it all down with a Pain Killer, Mai Tai, or daiquiri while you soak up the sunshine and enjoy the view. Live reggae bands play frequently, too! Visit Website

    Dogs only allowed on Tuesdays

    I find that very odd. Next rule should be old people only allowed on Mondays before 5

    Only tuesdays.

    one star for allowing dogs one day out of the week. what’s the reasoning behind that?

    Very great for dog and human

    our dog got fresh water, he was allowed on the stand up paddle, and even without leash on their beach

    Great location

    Management treats their employees like replaceable trash! Will not return here.

    Horrible Service/ Breed Bullies

    We were out boating with our dogs on Saturday and came across The Getaway. We docked and I got down to check if they were dog friendly, immediately we noticed there were 2-3 dogs so we figured it was. I proceeded to tell our family to get down and brings the dogs. (We have a Golden Retriever and a Pittbull) immediately someone came over and said they only allowed dogs on Tueaday...however there were 3 dogs on premises that I could clearly see so I asked about the other dogs. They said they were “service dogs” - all 3 dogs of different owners wearing no vest at all. They asked if my dogs were service dogs and I said yes and he immediately looked at my Pitbull and said “I doubt it”. I was furious and left. If I could give zero stars/bones I would.

    We loved it!

    First note that they only allow dogs on TUESDAYS! :) FYI .. they were very dog friendly! My little dog sat on a bench seat with me the whole time (we went to a different restaurant that didn't allow that). Great environment! Great view. Food was okay, we tried a couple things that were new to us that we weren't a fan of but I guess it depends on your taste! They serve mainly sandwiches. Pretty pricey for the type of food though.
