One of the best restaurants for burgers and wings in Sarasota and Bradenton is opening a new location.
Locally based Food + Beer owners, Mike Whalen and Casey Daniels, debuted their crowd-pleasing sports bar concept of first-rate pub grub paired with various brews (and now, craft cocktails) in Sarasota’s Gulf Gate neighborhood in 2018. They soon followed it with a location on Fruitville Road. Next came Food + Beer’s Bradenton restaurant in 2021, and then another in Venice in 2022.
Last year, Food + Beer opened a location in downtown Sarasota’s Rosemary District, as well as one in Lakeland. Now, the owners have announced plans to open their seventh location.

Food + Beer to open new location in East Bradenton
Whalen said their next Food + Beer will be at 4286 53rd Ave E., Bradenton, in the Lockwood Commons shopping center anchored by Publix. The spot formerly housed a Beef ‘O’ Brady’s. The plans are to begin welcoming guests in May or June, depending on how fast the remodel goes.
