Key West Islip Beach

A great local getaway! A weekend visit or on your weekday lunch break... drive down, eat your lunch while enjoying the cool breeze and pretty waves. Bring the kids to enjoy the playground area. Cute Tiki Bar/Restaurant, Outdoor Deck, Outdoor Showers and Plenty of Seating, Tables, Benches and Gazebo for a shady retreat. Stop by and take a look if you're in the Islip area, just off downtown Main Street, South all the way to the end.

You need to be a town resident during summer season. Love this place and the restaurant KEY WEST they have some refreshing drinks and some tasty food. They have grill on the other side so you can BBQ and the beach is right there don’t need to walk miles to jump in the water

Fab summer outdoor beach dining located at Islip Beach. It has menu items one would never expect at a beach venue. Alcohol by the pitcher avaliable

There is live music here on Thursday nights except on those days when the musicians are not here. The food has greatly improved with more healthy options added to the fried foods and grilled hamburgers. The deck is groomed with palm trees and shade umbrellas at the tables. From where you are seated, looking across the bay, you see Fire Island, and the Robert Moses Causeway bridge.
A wind barrier protects you at the west end of the deck when Mother Nature is trying to get your attention at this more enclosed (on three sides) seating area with tables and chairs.
The beach is considerably smaller than it once once due to our last hurricane. Swimming inside the ropes while the child lifeguards are on duty is an extreme bore because the water is about waist to shoulder high for adults. Parents, watch your children and do not rely solely on the young lifeguards to protect your kids.
The real attraction is sitting in the gazebo feeling bored but trying to look excited...or cool (which is very hard to pull off if you are sixty). Forget your appearance, wife with kids, and sand in your face (momentarily), and go for a feeling of euphoria with the restaurant's tropical intoxications on the rocks. Ah, that's better. Cool. Water beading in little droplets on the outside of the cup. Wife comes by stating she and the kids are ready to go home now. You don't hear her because you have had five tropical thingys within ninety minutes and you think someone stole your ears. "Oh waitwess! Yeth hi. Please keep deese twopical thingys coming. Thank you berry much!"

Yeah, create your own paradise on a budget. You don't need to go to the real Key West where the dress code is a skimpy Speedo.
Sunset is a pleasant pit stop when cycling long-distance and you divert south to the water's edge.

The atmosphere is quite relaxing and well worth the trip.

We really enjoyed ourselves! The atmosphere was peaceful and of course the day we were there the Sun was shining so you almost got the feeling you were somewhere out in the Caribbean. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding!

Great hidden spot right on the beach. Perfect place to grab a breakfast sandwich or omelet to enjoy by the water. Or stay for lunch and try the baked crab while enjoyed a beer.

I have taken my prom pictures, got married here, take my daughter to the beach here every summer, the new showers and food hut is amazing. Nice and small. Its perfect. Also they have two nice playgrounds for the kids.

Live music, beautiful sunsets, great seafood, great drinks...need I say more? The owner Sal walks around during the weekends and ensures food and ambiance is to everyone’s satisfaction. He recommended the baked crabs which we loved over French fries. He recommended the shrimp and spinach pizza he hand makes. Highly recommend everyone check this place out at least once. A hidden gem in islip. Coconut shrimp was to die for! Frozen drinks were refreshing and flavorful. See you soon sal!

Went with a friend on a whim without expectation. Food was great, surprise!!! Vibe was even better!! Delight! Keep playing the reggae and keep the bright colors fresh, I absolutely loved this place. The people who work there were very friendly, service oriented, and did a great job. Didn't get to stay for live music but saw the performer prepping and wished I could stay.

I parked and watched the sun dance on the water to make it look like diamonds. I drank my coffee and ate my bagel. Absolute serenity 💫🫶😚☺

It's my favorite place on Islip Beach ⛱.
Here the food is great, staff is the best and you can enjoy every night live music!
You can't find a better price around!
Highly recommend 👌

Great place to be on a hot summer night Live entertainment til 9 Karaoke on Tuesday Good casual food and extensive drink options Decor has an tropical island vibe

Everyone from the staff to patrons, were friendly and courteous. The food was delicious and affordable. I’m looking forward to returning before the season ends.
The relaxed atmosphere along with “Solo Joe’s”, one man music band, played great music, and he takes requests 👍🏼👏🏻‼

Went there for the first time today and I am impressed. Me and my family loved it. Very clean and family friendly. Life guard on site and it even has a restaurant, clean bathrooms, showers, grills, areas to sit. I just loved it and I will be going there more often.

Great place to have a drink and eat. Too bad the beach is getting smaller and smaller due to erosion.

Great sand and surf family friendly

This place is a little gem on the Great South Bay. Friendly people, nice menu, great atmosphere, waterfront views and live acoustic music. It is one of my favorite venues to play music with the Suburban Brothers Band. It’s a comfortable family friendly restaurant. Always a fun and relaxing place to be.

Perfect summer lunch spot! Right on the beach, it made for a beautiful breeze and the food-truck style fare was absolutely delicious. Everything my family of 5 ordered came out better than I could have anticipated. I will absolutely be going back!

What a great place. The food is amazing & love the Pleasant staff. After our meal we grab a delicious drink and lay on the sandy beach & enjoy the water. If your lucky there's sometimes bands playing 👍🏼

Great for watching the sunset. Live reggae, great cocktails, and a relaxed atmosphere.
