OH NO - Not Again!

BUT
From looking at other threads I really can't find what I am looking for.

Doing an art reception at the Manatee Art Center in Bradenton, and looking for a decent place to eat dinner afterwards within walking distance of Art Center. Looking at a Bradenton map one of the tourist groups publishes, I don't see much. Has to be within a few blocks because one of the people can't walk too far. Also, looking for something that has choices beyond shellfish.

Thanks

Art Center Manatee is in a pretty bad location for dinner dining!

Your choices are going to be limited to what's on Old Main St (12th St W), and Pier 22 at Twin Dolphin.

I haven't been to any of these places, but you might be able to find some reviews online.

Pier 22 | Restaurant - Patio - Ballroom

On Old Main St

Fav?s Italian Cucina

Robin's Downtown ... web site is down, so they may be gone.

Robin's Downtown Cafe - Bradenton | Urbanspoon

O Bricks is supposed to have their restaurant open in February, so that might help if your reception is in Feb!

O'bricks Irish Pub & Martini Bar, Bradenton, Florida. Welcome to our version of an Irish Pub and Martini Bar in downtown Bradenton.

Becks Bistro is open for dinner on Friday and Saturday only

Beck's Cool Beans Restaurant

There might be a couple more, but I couldn't find anything.

If you want to drive a short distance, there is additional dining on the north side off the river at the marina in Palmetto.

I recommend Pier 22 - it's fabulous in every way. Great food, great selection of food and you cannot beat the setting and ambiance.

Enjoy!

We were actually at Pier 22 yesterday! LOVED IT!! Love the history of it, the jazz playing throughout, the view...fantastic. I wish we had waited to have lunch there instead of just drinks.
