Island-style dining with waterfront views and live island rhythms
Caribbean Pete's brings Florida Keys relaxation to Waretown, located inside Key Harbor Marina. You'll find jerk wings, conch fritters, and fresh island fare served with waterfront bay and lighthouse views, live music, and an atmosphere designed to feel like you've stepped off the mainland. This isn't just a meal—it's a mini escape.
You can expect BYOB flexibility with sangria pitcher kits and pour-over cocktails that let you customize your experience. Dock & Dine access means you can arrive by boat, bring your dog to the outdoor seating, and settle into a sunset social setting without the usual noise or rush. The menu stays true to island favorites, and the vibe keeps things easy.
Caribbean Pete's also partners exclusively with Joffrey's Coffee out of Tampa, bringing the official specialty coffee served at Disney resorts and theme parks to New Jersey's waterfront. Whether you’re enjoying a casual night out or gathering for dinner after a day on the water, this is the perfect place to unwind. The atmosphere sets the stage, allowing you to simply relax and enjoy the moment.


What Happens When You Arrive
You pull up—by car or by boat—and the setting takes over. Outdoor seating looks out over the bay, the live music sets the tone, and the menu has something for everyone at any budget. If you're bringing your own bottle, the staff walks you through the sangria kits and pour-over options so you know exactly what to expect. There's no guesswork, just straightforward service and a layout that lets you settle in.
Live entertainment runs on a regular schedule, and the marina location means you're not fighting for parking or dealing with crowded boardwalks. Everything stays visible, from the lighthouse views to the dock access, so you can plan your visit around what matters most to you.
Here's what makes the experience work:
BYOB waterfront dining with pitcher kits and cocktail setups that give you control over your evening
Signature dishes like jerk wings, Caribbean jerk braised short ribs and fish tacos
Dock & Dine access and dog-friendly seating that welcome boaters and families alike
Exclusive Joffrey's Coffee service—the same brew featured at Disney resorts, available right here on the bay

Food was really great. Shrimp tacos and jerk wings were nothing like I ever tasted. What a hidden gem of a place.
Last month they catered my album release party where I had 60 family and friends. Everyone had such a great time and the food was fantastic. High recommend having your event there.

Lunch on the bay was perfect. All, and I mean all of the food we had was delicious. Tasty & fresh, light & refreshing. The Key Lime Garlic Shrimp was so flavorful, Cocomut Shrimp was perfect and the Mahi Mahi tacos were seasoned perfectly... I would highly recommend coming here to enjoy a super fabulous meal with gorgeous views across the bay. The staff was happy to see us, all smiles and great conversation. Please get your restaurant on Trip Advisor so I could leave another review.
