Dining & drinks: Tiki and casual poolside fare vs single signature restaurant

Blue Flamingo Resort Key West – Dining & drinks

Blue Flamingo emphasizes poolside, island-inspired dining with two dedicated venues and casual food-truck service.

  • Rum Row is a tiki Caribbean bar/food truck serving cocktails, frozen drinks and poolside bites (hours vary Fri–Sun extended).
  • Toasted Coconut is a poolside restaurant serving breakfast through afternoon (hours listed as 8:00 AM–4:00 PM on the main site).
