A great spot to gather on Anna Maria Island!

I had the best day yesterday on Anna Maria Island! I got to see about 10-12 of my friends from high school and it had been awhile since I have seen some of them. We all decided to meet at the AMOB Pier at the end on Bridge Street in Bradenton Beach. What a perfect place to meet. All of us got there around 5:00 PM and to our surprise, they had the BEST happy hour deals!!! $4.00 call liquors, .50 off beer and wines, and buy one appetizer and get one half off! Let me tell you, we all took full advantage of all of these deals. I had a frozen wine – yes, I said frozen wine. It was a Kim Crawford blend with a grapefruit/jalepeno vodka. Does it get much better than that!? We all ordered different appetizers so that we could share and sample a bunch of them. My favorite was the smoked fish dip and the calamari!! I would highly suggest trying the AMOB Pier on Bridge Street anytime. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner! And I still have not even mentioned the view – you can sit inside or enjoy the covered outdoor sitting area right on the bay! We had to sit inside because you know those Florida summer rains – it started to pour!
