Tarpon Creek Bar & Grill

Tarpon Creek Bar & Grill sits on the Overseas Highway in Marathon, the Middle Keys community that serves as a midpoint hub for the long drive between Miami and Key West. Marathon has its own character — more working-town than resort — and a bar and grill like Tarpon Creek fits right into that practical, down-to-earth atmosphere. The name references the surrounding waterways and the tarpon fishing culture that defines much of the Keys sporting life. Expect cold drinks, grill fare, and a local crowd that is as comfortable after a day on the water as a day on land.
