The Bay House Restaurant showcases the natural beauty of Florida’s mangrove river systems and the warmth and charm of Old Florida design and hospitality.

Nestled on the banks of the Cocohatchee River, the casually elegant dining rooms in The Bay House offer expansive views of the river and its wildlife.  Relax and watch the herons, egrets, and pelicans pursue fish in the river.  Or stroll through the restaurant and view the works of Clyde Butcher and Jonathan Green, which line the wood paneled walls of the private rooms that overlook the lush waterway.   The rustic wooden boats that adorn the ceiling of the main dining room and bar are maritime works of art, and our brick fireplace in the tavern area invites you and your friends to relax and reconnect. 

The Bay House is so much a part of the landscape that you’ll think we have been here forever.  This is the way life should be  . . .  beautiful, elegant, and relaxed.
