Restaurant & Club Review: Capt Hiram's in Sebastian Florida

If you have not checked out a map to search the area...take a look out how large Brevard County is! In the very southern portion of the County is Sebastian. It sits on the river and many of it's residents love the great Indian River views. For those of us a little further north we love to head to Sebastian on the weekend...mostly because of Capt Hiram's Resort.

Capt Hiram's truly is a resort...with a very nice restaurant, a marina (because it is near the inlet many boaters can head in for a weekend stay), a hotel and the World Famous Sandbar. The Sandbar is an outdoor Bahamian style bar that sits on the river (so you get spectacular views). Sandbar offers a concert stage so you can listen to some fabulous music year round. Capt Hiram's will attract some major artists at Sandbar. Add to this the fact that they have an extensive free concert series (check the website at http://www.hirams.com/) that offers some very good reggae, rock and acoustic acts.

The restaurant has a nice menu with decent resort style food weighted mostly towards seafood (although the burgers and chicken offerings are just fine)...try the fish and chips (pay the $2 extra to get mahi)...if you come for a weekend you will not feel the need (or have any reason) to leave!

The hotel rooms are quite nice. They have a style that will remind you of a resort in the Bahamas...but without the ridiculous prices that tend to go along with them. Many of the rooms have breathtaking river and marina views. You can not help but relax and lower your blood pressure after a couple of days here.

If you are looking for a romantic weekend away from it all, a go to Sunday sun and fun place...or just a great gathering place for you and your friends...check out Capt Hiram's...this place will get in your blood...and make you very happy you live on the Space Coast!
