The Village Pub

The Village Pub sits right on the water at Venetian Village, with both indoor and outdoor seating overlooking Venetian Bay, where boats drift by and dolphins and manatees make the occasional appearance while you eat.

The Food

The menu is straightforward and satisfying : soups, salads, sandwiches, and heartier entrees, with a strong lean toward seafood. Think fresh catch of the day, fish and chips, mahi mahi tacos, and crab cakes, alongside pub classics like nachos, quesadillas, and burgers. Oh, and one more thing! Every table gets a jar of pickles. It’s a small, quirky touch that regulars have come to expect and visitors always remember.

The Atmosphere

The vibe is relaxed and family-friendly, with a full bar, a great selection of beers and wines, and live music from guitarist Andy Wahlberg on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. There’s even an underwater fish light that draws fish to the surface after dark, making evening visits particularly fun.

Good to Know

The Village Pub is a walk-in establishment, so no reservations needed — just show up, put your name in if there’s a wait, and enjoy the view until your table is ready.
