SRQ Magazine | October 2025: Best of SRQ Winners Showcase - Food + Beer
FOOD + BEER
PLATINUM WINNER
BEST LOCAL BURGER & FRENCH FRIES
At Food + Beer, we keep it simple: serve food people crave, pour drinks they love, and make sure everyone leaves happier than they came. Turns out, Sarasota and Bradenton agree - big time. This year, you voted us Platinum for Best Local Burger and Best French Fries, Bronze for Best Brunch, and gave us Honorable Mentions for Best Salad and Best Fried Chicken in SRQ’s Best of Local.
Our burgers? Juicy, stacked, and downright legendary. Fries? Crispy golden perfection. Brunch? A weekend essential. And while we’re proud of every plate we send out, it’s our community that makes it all matter.
From cheering on local teams to hosting fundraisers, from neighborhood events to spontaneous celebrations, Food + Beer has always been more than a menu - it’s a hangout, a game-day headquarters, and a place where locals and visitors feel like regulars.
These awards mean so much because they come directly from the people we serve every day. Our guests aren’t just customers - they’re our neighbors, our cheerleaders, and our friends. This recognition is really a win for our entire community.
We’re here to keep the good times rolling: fresh ideas in the kitchen, ice-cold pints behind the bar, and plenty of reasons to pull up a chair. Thanks for making us part of your weekends, your wins, and your “why not?” nights out. Here’s to more flavor, more fun, and maybe a few more fries on the table.
