Craving fresh seafood and a laid-back atmosphere? Pinchers Fort Myers Beach serves plenty of both. Located along San Carlos Boulevard, just a short drive from the Key West Express terminal, this colorful local favorite is an easy stop before or after your ferry adventure.

With its casual setting, tropical drinks and menu packed with seafood favorites, Pinchers brings plenty of Florida flavor to the table.

Come Hungry for Seafood

Pinchers proudly lives by the motto “You Can’t Fake Fresh.” Seafood is the star here, with a menu featuring crab, shrimp, oysters, clams, grouper and other coastal favorites.

Start with something fun for the table, such as crab rangoon, smoked grouper fish dip, conch fritters or the restaurant’s hot crab and cheese dip. If crab is calling your name, choices may include blue crab clusters, snow crab, crab cakes and Pinchers Claws prepared with garlic butter and Parmesan.

Shrimp lovers have plenty of decisions to make, too. Depending on the dish, shrimp can be served fried, grilled, blackened, coconut-style, Buffalo-style, scampi-style or as classic peel-and-eat shrimp.

More Than Crab and Shrimp

Not everyone in your group needs to be a dedicated seafood fan. The menu also includes burgers, chicken, ribs, salads, sandwiches and pasta. Younger diners have their own choices, making Pinchers an easy option for families and groups with different tastes.

Save a little room for a slice of Key lime pie—or order one of the restaurant’s towering cakes and ask for extra forks.
