Staff was friendly, but you do a lot of self serve, oysters were on the small side, but good. Was apparently a popular place with a little wait for a table.

Published in Southern Living, this quaint little seafood restaurant draws people from all over the country to experience the fresh shrimp and oysters.
The menu is simple because they do, what they do best: Raw and baked oysters, steamed shrimp!
The serving are generous and we always leave full. The Gumbo is also good, I order it every time we go.
They feature live music often.
Although the wait may be long you have outdoor seating and games to keep you occupied. The firepit burns warmly in the winter months.
They have an honor system where you grab your beverage and keep track of them on a tally sheet.
So enjoy your favorite drink, some music and fun outdoors until your table is ready. And be prepared to be fed!!!

It's embarrassing to have this happen in public I applaud the staff for making me feel comfortable and going above and beyond to help me.

We had a good experience at this restaurant. We did have to wait for quite a while, as we had a party of 8. The servers were great and very attentive. The food was really good as well. Our group enjoyed the smoked fish dip with crackers, baked oysters, gumbo and crab stuffed shrimp; the slaw was good and the cheese grits were great. The kids enjoyed their meals as well. We really enjoyed the laid back atmosphere here. Note they have a sister restaurant that’s in town called Uptown Raw Bar & Grill at Port Saint Joe and it was really good.

Just a nice place that does steamed shrimp and crab legs right. Stopped for a late lunch and they were fairly busy. They have some great foods and the beverage s is self serve on the way in they give you a “score card” to keep tally of your beverages.

My favorite place in the world. Grew up sitting at the bar top watching Gator shuck oysters. Oysters are the best and that’s why you go there. Get your beer from the back and wait for a table. It’s worth the wait. If you are looking for a good burger, don’t go to a raw bar.

It's an experience. Honor system with the beer cooler, never seen that before. Food is good and reasonably fast "service". Once seated you get a score card (like the self service beer) you fill it out and then they take it. There really isn't a waiter in the modern sense and yet their system has worked since 1929.

Glad you are reopened! Now we have been coming here for 6 yrs. we always make it here a couple times meeting up with friends. Our friend Denny played tonight so a big group of us from Indian Pass Campground came out to listen. He was really good and we enjoyed his music so much. Gumbo is really good and so are their burgers. Fish dip is amazing and heard their chicken tenders are really good. I'll try them next week when we come back

Indian Pass Raw Bar is a local institution that you cannot, or should not miss! The atmosphere is casual and the food is excellent. There is a beer and soft drink refrigerator, with everything imaginable from which you help yourself on the honor system. Don’t miss the world class oyster and shrimp. If you are not a seafood person, the hamburger is top notch!

This review is for the stressed vacationing parent worried about dinner; I’m a very impatient and skeptical person. Went here for lunch with my wife and 7 year old today. Had a 30 minute wait for the table, but they made that wait easy. You are able to grab drinks (self serve) and cruise the gift shop inside, or hangout on the patio. They have some fun patio games. Food took a little to come out because they were so busy, but was worth it. And being able to self serve and relax makes up for that wait. Plus, the steamed shrimp were INCREDIBLE. Way better than another unnamed raw bar not far away. Oysters were great also. We spent way more than $20-$30 a person, but you could spend that much and be satisfied. Maybe less if you share - steamed shrimp is enough for two moderate eaters. Ignore any negative comments; pull up, hang out, enjoy the food. It easy to relax here and pause the clock of vacation.

What the hell is this gem of a dive?
Seemingly super exhausted from tending to constant idiotic senseless tourists churning through their tiny region, many of the service staff have a pretty salty attitude. It's honestly kind of refreshing in contrast to some of the desperation kindness that you soak up at some of the other spots in the nearby towns.
Solid Sysco corn dogs and burgers on pet alongside some local clams that you can get either baked or raw.
There's an impressive beer selection with a funky, quirky, down-home honor system ordering function. The live music is impressive even in the off-season. It's probably one of the better stops near Port St. Joe.

We met friends here yesterday for lunch and it was worth the almost two hour drive from Rosemary Beach FL! The atmosphere is very relaxed and the staff are super friendly, the food was amazing! The baked oysters were out of this world, the raw oysters delicious, as were the Gumbo, the raw shrimp and the Cheeseburger. Food could not have been better, and we even got to watch some NFL on their large screen TV,s. Many beers to choose from and it’s on the honor system that you pay for as many as you drank. YOU keep track and then tell the staff how many you had. It was really a great place and we will definitely be back!

Our beach arrival day tradition, after a long drive south, is to hit the Indian Pass Raw Bar for roasted oysters and a cold drink. The food and beverages never disappoint, the staff is friendly and welcoming, and there is always a nice mix of locals and visitors to chat with. We recommend this place to anyone visiting the area or just driving through.

As lifelong FSU Seminole fans, eating at a restaurant decked out in Gator memorabilia is always a bit of a conundrum for my family and friends. But when it comes to Indian Pass Raw Bar, we’re willing to set aside even the fiercest football rivalry for the amazing seafood they serve.
The oysters are so fresh and clean, and the shrimp? Absolutely to die for. We’ve been coming here for as long as I can remember, and no matter how hard we root for FSU, Indian Pass Raw Bar always wins us over. The seafood is THAT good.
So while the Gator decor might make us cringe, (it’s a lot to have Tim Tebow looking at your oysters over your shoulder) we’ll keep coming back—because great seafood knows no rivalries!

This place is awesome. The staff is friendly, the restaurant is clean, there is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and they have a great selection of beverages in their fridge! We ordered the fish dip, the best peel and eat shrimp we've ever had, and I ordered their chicken sandwich. The chicken sandwich was just ok but I give it a pass since it's probably not what most people typically order at a raw bar. Overall it was a great experience and we want to go back to try more things!

Really great food! I guess the secret is out. We've been coming here anytime we visit the area for about the last 15 years. When we first discovered the place we could always get a seat right away. A few years ago there was a bit of a wait, but you could grab a beer & hang out on the porch while you wait. This past week when we went for dinner it looked slammed & we were told there was a TWO HOUR wait! We opted to drive into Port St Joe that night to eat, but we LOVE this place so we came back on another day at a less busy time & glad we did as we absolutely must eat here any time we're there. Food is great, great atmosphere & it hasn't changed at all (other than it's much more popular now) since we've been coming. Very laid back & GREAT food, hope that never changes.

This is the place to eat when in or around the Port St Joe/Apalachicola area. The live music outside, the chairs and welcoming environment, the games, the staff and most importantly the food. The honor system with the coolers, so that you're never waiting on a drink, impressive that it's still done like this. The Crab legs and the peel and eat shrimp were perfectly steamed. Been coming here for years and will continue to do so.

If you see anyone give this less than 5 stars, don't worry about it. They just mad they couldn't get sit down quicker. The wait is glacial during any busy time, so either jump in a spot at the bar or grab a beer from the fridge and wait it out, cause it's worth the wait. Oh and don't expect a varied menu, they focus on a few things but they do em right.

Delicious, fresh seafood and super friendly service. Love that you can self-serve your drink options from the cooler and then tick off what you enjoy on the drink card. We had 2 lbs of steamed shrimp, stuffed shrimp, crab legs and 2 dozen raw oysters. We ate 4 sleeves of saltines, which are complimentary along with a big roll of paper towels! NO! We didn’t eat the towels. They know their food is finger-linking good!! YUMMY
