Dockside Bar & Grill Marathon FL Keys & Eric Stone
Posted: June 23, 2013 11:37 am
I saw this over at Cruising Outpost- http://cruisingoutpost.com/forum/viewto ... f=3&t=1212
There's a rumor floating around the Boot Key Harbor cruisers net that Eric Stone has signed a lease to open our favorite Dockside Bar & Grill in October when the seawall repairs are completed. Any one know if this is true ? I am hoping so. When I got to the keys in 2002 Dockside was a blast ! Lots of fun times, great locals, great local bands. When it was sold (due to owner divorce) an ogre took over and ran all the locals and cruisers out. Since then several incarnations have attempted to bring it back without success. The latest attempt was by a nice couple who put a lot of time and money in it only to have to pull out when the seawall fell in. Now the owners are in the (slow) process of rebuilding the sea wall and the question floats around pretty regularly "When is Dockside going to open again ?".
I found out referring to the "dockside" bar in Florida is like referring to the "ice house" in Texas. There's a bunch of them.
