This place was very very good! The portions you get are INSANE. This bar has inside and outside seating with tvs to watch. It's theme is cannabis with drinks and food choices to match the vibe. Clean inside and the bartenders are very helpful and friendly. Open from 4:20pm to 4:20am! I got dirty bong water as my drink and the fat Nathaniel and the fat sandy were the entrees

Munchies 420 Cafe is an absolute staple in Sarasota, and a really good place for food, drinks, and the easiest going crowd you’ll ever find. Come, as you are, inside or outside, be yourself, and enjoy your selection of the finest bar food that Sarasota has to offer. The kitchen has absolutely consistent quality and delivers at impressive speed. Add to that the coolest and most attentive staff, and you got a great Neighborhood bar vibe going, that will definitely not disappoint. Here are the inside tips: 1) Go there as late as you want, I think they’re open till 2 AM. The later it is, the more distinctive the place becomes. 2) Ask for John behind the bar, he is part of what makes Munchies such a great place. Always a good story, Always a nice gesture, Never rushed or superficial. You really feel that you’re amongst friends. 3) From the menu, try the chicken quesadillas or the Philly cheesesteak quesadillas. But make sure you’re hungry when you get there. And for those of you who haven’t eaten in three days, order the Fat Sandy. I won’t give it away, you’ll find it on the menu. And for those of you with a culinary death wish, try the Fat Daddy. I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone finish it. But all that is part of the fun, and that’s part of what Munchies is. Just a great place with great people and great food. And to the guy from up north who felt that he needed to write a three page review, resulting in a one star rating because he wasn’t served fast enough: Thank you for visiting Sarasota, we are truly impressed with your minute by minute timekeeping of your daily activities, but I think you’ll be better off back home. If the way you describe Munchies is the way you experience your life in general, then it must suck to be you. How about this? We keep our Munchies and enjoy hanging out there, and you find places back home to berate. Or even better, open up your own bar and try to even remotely compete with Munchies. I’ll be sure to visit and bring my stopwatch.
One of the best food joints and bars in Sarasota/Siesta Keys. Walking in and greeted by a funny and friendly staff, great people that take great care of their guests, Brad is the best! Food is delicious, had to try the Fat Sandy and I was not disappointed, portion size and quality are top notch, great selection of drinks. The fire in your hole challenge is definitely no joke. Overall a fun experience to anyone who has the late night/early morning munchies!
