Castaways Bar & Grill

"This was our first time there and we had a great time. The bartender was very prompt with her service, smile and she sang Kareoke too! The food was very good and it was wing night! Kareoke and wings, can't go wrong! They have craft beer too! Everyone was friendly and we love meeting the locals. It was definitely a great find and we will go back again while we are in the area. It's only 30 minutes from where we are staying. Btw the burgers and poppers were amazing too!"

"Update - April '23 The last time I was here, I had an amazing cheeseburger & fries. Today, I tried the wings. They were absolutely THE BEST wings I've ever had! WOW! The wings were large and cooked to perfection. They were fresh, hot, juicy, and perfectly sauced. The fries were crazy good as well. What a great deal for $6.99. They have icy cold beer too. The service was just as friendly and fast as our last visit. Thanks, Donna! - If your crave is for wings, you won't do better anywhere in Citrus County. _________________________ Original review - June '22 I'm SO glad we stopped to check out Castaways! Inside, you'll find an updated, clean, friendly neighborhood pub with a welcoming atmosphere. The cheeseburger was cooked exactly how I ordered, and it was topped with super fresh veggies. SO darn good! The fries were hot, crispy, and delicious. My order arrived at the table in a flash. Dano, the barkeep, was attentive and kind. If your crave is for a great bar burger alongside an icy cold draft in a frosted mug, look no further! Great service, outstanding food at a fair price, and dog friendly. No complaints whatsoever. Easy 5 stars here! "

"Oh my goodness, if you want an excellent burger and fries for a good price you gotta order them from here. My husband and I normally just order to go and take them home. We're more home bodies but you can't beat the burgers from here anywhere locally."

"Typical working man's bar, the usual bar food. Happy Hour is 3 to 7 M-F. Well behaved dogs are allowed inside and there is an adjacent field for them to exercise in. No smoking inside. Kids are welcome but are not common."

"I've been to many a bar, this one is great for a couple beers, a bite to eat and a pool game if you like. Karaoke starts a bit late at night, but when you want to go to a bar that's open late in Crystal River, FL Castaways is perfect."

"There are people there who haven't left since it opened. Drinks are great as are bartenders and food. Karaoke for illiterate It's atruly fun and welcoming place. A local historic landmark."

"This is a bar. I thought it was more pub restaurant but it's a bar. Kinda run down as you would expect a bar to be. Decent food but nothing to write home about. Friendly service. I'm not a drinker so I was kinda disappointed. Okay if you want to day drink in dim light."
