Customer Reviews
The Shipwreck has a rating of 4.3 out of 5 based on over 770 reviews on Google
We didn’t eat but we did enjoy Devan at the bar with her Clearwater Beach history lesson and her West Coast vibe. We had to try the "Floating Duck" as its world renowned and also the "Sea Margarita" that while not as famous probably should be. This is a pool hall/dive bar/beach bar so if you are looking for fancy, probably not your vibe, but if you want to feel like you are at your friends house, this is the place!
A fantastic dive bar with real character. Jeff, the bartender, is an absolute blast. Visited here over 5 years ago and was so happy to see he was still there. He is entertaining, and always on his game. The whole place has a kitschy (in a great way) atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great drinks, great energy, and a bartender who truly makes the dive bar experience unique.
If you are alittle rough around the edges and you are on vacation and wanna get drunk in a real Pirate bar then this is your place! Is the place classy? No. Its it clean? ish.. will u get drunk in a Pirate bar? Definitely.
The Shipwreck is a great place to hang out. The atmosphere is always fun, the drinks are always good, and the staff is friendly. Jeff behind the bar is awesome! He’s super personable, quick with drinks even when it’s busy, and keeps a really good vibe going. He’s definitely one of the reasons I like stopping in there! 🍹🚢
If you can’t handle sarcasm, don’t bother. If you have thickish skin, this place rocks. The bartenders are great if you match their energy. They even have a sign stating such. Come here, have fun, don’t expect to be treated like a king/queen. Best dive bar in Clearwater. Price is right.
Best dive on the north end of the strip.. been coming here 27 years, you wanna go where the locals go when the sun goes down and the moon goes up ? stop in. Cocktails are good like grandma makes in the shed , beers are cold , good folks here. Cheers!
Oldest bar in Clearwater never disappoints! We just stopped in for a quick drink before heading to our destination. Jeff the bartender was still there and just as sassy as before. He's great! Drinks are awesome! Must try the pink shot! Yum!
