For a fun night out on the town, Cape Coral has several tiki huts, swanky waterside spots, and various kinds of bars – sports bars, live music venues, dancing, comedy, and entertainment. Because Cape Coral is a vacation destination, many restaurants also feature live music and entertainment.
Interesting food and drinks can be found at Cork Soakers with Sunday brunch and at the Nevermind Bar. Also in South Cape is the Dixie Roadhouse – Southwest Florida’s #1 nightclub. It’s a country and western bar and restaurant featuring line dancing, as well as local and national bands for a lively night out.
If you want to dance to rock, jazz, Motown, oldies, new hits, and more, head to Cape Cabaret. They offer live entertainment five nights a week, a large dance floor, a full dinner menu, and fun dance bands and musicians.
There are plenty of places to go out that aren’t traditional nightclubs but still offer a great time. If you enjoy a country-western atmosphere, visit Bubba’s Roadhouse on Pine Island Rd for great food and live music.
Two favorite waterfront spots are The Nauti Mermaid at the Westin Hotel Tarpon Point Marina and the Tiki Bar at Fathoms, offering great dining with boat access in Cape Harbour.
For a classic sports bar experience, try Woody’s for good food, a tiki hut with live music, and plenty of big-screen TVs to watch the games. You can also visit Duffy’s Sports Grill.
