Cheeky's Fish & Raw Bar - Bartender

Cheeky's is a friendly neighborhood seafood restaurant on Central Ave in St. Pete. Award winning burgers, caesar salad and the best happy hour in town. Oysters, lobster rolls, frozens. A horseshoe bar, a patio that watches Central, a tight-knit crew that's better together. A local favorite that caters and hosts private events too.
