Perfectly positioned at the entrance to John’s Pass Village, Mad Beach Cantina brings vibrant Mexican flavors and a casual, beachside vibe to the heart of Madeira Beach. Known for its fresh coastal fare, handcrafted cocktails, and lively atmosphere, it’s a favorite spot among both locals and visitors. And for our guests at Sea Breeze, Madeira Norte Condos, Surf Song Resort, Crimson, Sandy Shores, and Beach Place, it’s just a short walk away.
Whether you’re grabbing lunch after shopping at John’s Pass or settling in for a sunset dinner with friends, Mad Beach Cantina offers a fun and flavorful experience that fits right into your beach vacation.
What to Expect
Fresh, Bold Baja Flavors
The menu features a modern take on Baja-Mex cuisine—think mahi tacos, grouper bowls, house-made guacamole, and carne asada nachos. Everything is made fresh with high-quality ingredients, and there’s a variety of vegetarian, gluten-free, and kid-friendly options.
Signature Cocktails & Margaritas
Mad Beach Cantina is just as well known for its drinks as it is for its food. Classic margaritas, mojitos, and tequila-forward creations pair perfectly with the menu. Seasonal cocktails and happy hour specials keep things interesting for return visits.
Relaxed, Beachside Atmosphere
With open-air seating and a colorful, upbeat setting, the Cantina is welcoming for families, couples, and groups alike. The location—just across from the waterfront at John’s Pass—makes it a convenient and scenic stop whether you're coming off the beach or winding down your day.
