Swampy's Bar & Grille
Overview
Welcome to Swampy’s Bar & Grille in Dunnellon, Florida!
Looking over the beautiful Rainbow River from our restaurant deck, you can enjoy and understand the inspiration which created Swampy’s. It is the raw beauty of the Florida river swamp with a few extra conveniences added – Swampy’s great food and drink.
If you arrive early enough, you may observe the family of otters that swim, eat, and live right here at Swampy’s river bank. As early afternoon arrives, you view local residents and tourists lazily floating down the river in tubes, kayaks, canoes, and a few boats. As the day ends, and the sun sets, you may again observe the family of otters venture out to enjoy their river dinner, as you enjoy yours.
Swampy's is dog-friendly for leashed pets at its two dozen outdoor tables, and staff can provide water for pets.
Hours
Closed Tuesdays.
