Clearwater Beach’s Largest Rooftop Bar & Restaurant

Experience stunning 360° views, fresh seafood, craft cocktails, and live vibes at Jimmy’s on the Edge—the premier rooftop bar on Clearwater Beach, located at the Edge Hotel.

 

Situated on the 10th floor of Edge Hotel Clearwater Beach, Jimmy’s on the Edge offers panoramic views of the Gulf and stands as the largest rooftop bar and restaurant in the area, making it a must-visit for both locals and visitors.


Whether you’re looking for a romantic sunset dinner, a casual lunch with friends, or an exciting evening enjoyed with craft cocktails and entertainment, Jimmy’s on the Edge provides the perfect setting for unforgettable moments.

Why Jimmy’s on the Edge Stands Out


Spanning over 2,500 square feet with open-air terraces and covered seating, Jimmy’s blends Key West-inspired vibes with modern Florida flair. It is open daily from 11:00 AM until late (the bar stays open until 1:00 AM). During the day, it is family-friendly and transitions into a vibrant night spot as the sun sets.


The views are unmatched. From your seat, you can watch boats sailing through the pass, spot dolphins playing in the Gulf, and witness the world-famous Clearwater Beach sunsets that paint the sky in brilliant oranges and pinks. Many guests comment that the 360° perspective makes every visit feel special—whether it’s your first time or an annual tradition.


The menu celebrates island flavors with fresh, locally sourced seafood and creative twists:

 

  • Signature items like the “Over the Edge Burger,” Snapper Rice Bowl, and grouper tacos.
  • Appetizers such as nachos loaded with pulled pork, queso, and cilantro lime crema.
  • Tropical cocktails, local craft beers, and a solid selection of wines.


Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere is welcoming. It’s ideal for date nights, family dinners, group celebrations, or simply unwinding after a day at the beach.

A Day (or Night) at Jimmy’s – What to Expect


Lunch & Afternoon Vibes: Arrive around 11 AM for bright, sunny views and lighter fare. The open terrace is perfect for people-watching while enjoying refreshing drinks and sharing appetizers. Families appreciate the relaxed setting, which offers plenty of space.


Happy Hour & Sunset Magic: Our Edge Happy Hour specials make early evenings even better. As the sun dips toward the horizon, the energy builds. Grab a seat on the terrace for the best sunset photos and toasts. Live entertainment often adds music to the breathtaking backdrop.


Evening & Late Night: After dark, Jimmy’s transforms into a vibrant space with a buzzing atmosphere, perfect for special occasions—birthdays, anniversaries, or simply celebrating being on vacation. The entire rooftop or specific sections can be reserved for private parties.

 

Pro Tip: Reserve a table during peak times (especially on weekends and during festivals) for the best experience. Our staff is known for providing friendly, attentive service that keeps guests coming back.
