Restaurant Reivew
Skidder's
This family restaurant is located in St. Pete Beach, thus making it a good choice after exploring St. Pete Beach, Madeira Beach, or Pass-a-Grille Beach. They serve your typical big, diverse family restaurant style menu, meaning there are plenty of choices for everyone. This is the type of place your whole party can agree on for breakfast or lunch before or after a day of fun-in-the-sun.
Food
Skidder's serves a huge breakfast and lunch/dinner menu. For breakfast, they are known for their extensive omelet selection. Belgian waffles, French Toast, and pancakes with various toppings are also popular.
If you are dining for lunch, you will have no shortage of options. There is an abundance of Greek and Italian entrees to choose amongst. A fresh Greek salad is a great choice following a long hot day in the sun. If you are craving something heftier, you can take your pick amongst specialty pizzas, Italian pasta dishes, hamburgers, subs and clubs, sandwiches, steaks and seafood entrees, and Greek dishes. There are lots of choices.
The menu is quite pricey compared to most diners because of the prime beach location. The food is average at best, although the diverse menu is really a highlight for anyone dining with an indecisive big party.
Service
Service is so-so. Kind of slow and not overly friendly, but adequate.
Atmosphere
The ambiance is causal, no frills. This is the type of place you can visit before or after your beach day without feeling like you need to get dressed up.
Final Remarks
Overall, the casual vibe and expansive menu make Skidder's a good choice for anyone spending the day at St. Pete area beaches.
