Enjoying Gator Bites on Dog-Friendly Patio

Despite not being able to get near any of the dog-friendly restaurants on Sanibel Island last weekend, I was able to enjoy dinner out with Ma and Daddy-dog at a restaurant right down the road from our hotel. We ate at Gator Bites Tail & Ale.

Oz the Terrier at dog-friendly Gator Bites Tail & Ale in Fort Myers, Florida

Gator Bites Tail & Ale is a popular, casual restaurant located in a Publix strip mall a few miles east of Sanibel Island.  And yes...they actually serve Gator Bites! We tried the Golden Breaded Gator Bites appetizer and do you know what?  It tastes just like chicken.

If you are ever in Fort Myers and would like to stop for a reasonably priced lunch or dinner, we recommend visiting Gator Bites Tail & Ale and their dog-friendly outdoor patio seating. You should also try the Gator Bites appetizer or one of the other items made with alligator tail meat. I bet you will like it!

Thank you to Sugar and Nola for hosting Black & White Sunday.

  2. We tried it years ago on a visit to Florida, and it wasn't too great. Maybe they didn't know how to prepare it right.

  4. If it's cheap and tastes like chicken, it's chicken.

  6. I love alligator bites. We have several restaurants that serve them but none are dog-friendly.

  10. Looks like fun Oz, going out to eat with the folks is the best! I've had alligator treats before and like them but mom doubts she would like the gator bites, the smell of my treats were awful! Love Dolly

  11. So glad you found a dog friendly place! I don't know...I'm not real adventurous when it comes to food, though I'm sure the dogs would be up for it! :)
