Key's Fisheries for Lunch

Key's Fisheries is a seafood market, wholesale fishery and a popular lunch and dinner restaurant.  We have purchased hogfish and lobster cakes from them to cook on the boat which were delicious.  Today we decided to experience their lunch atmosphere.  Lunch begins at 11:00--we arrived around 12 to discover a line had already formed.  There is one  outdoor counter at which to place an order with a large menu painted on the wall.  It felt a little like ordering at The Varsity --What'll ya have? except that no one gets in a hurry in  the Keys.  After placing our order for the Lobster Reuben and Stone Crab Chowder, they asked for a movie name to call out when our meal was ready.  It is less confusing and more entertaining to hear movies called out as the plates are placed on the counter for pickup.  Picnic tables encircle the building with an open air view of the bay.  









This sign indicates that the Lobster Reuben may be big enough to share.  




Clearly-The Lobster Reuben is enough for two













I cast my ballot for the "Guess how many Reubens sold in January" contest.  I'll let you know if I win...

If your mouth is watering with the mention of the seafood sold at Key's Fisheries--no need to worry.  They will gladly ship from their online store.
