Murray Brothers Caddyshack

Murray Brothers Caddyshack on I-95 at St Augustine is a fun place to visit for a drink or a great meal.  Located at the World Golf Village, Caddyshack is a first class bar and grill. Inspired by the iconic 1981 film starring Bill Murray and Chevy Chase, you can see all kinds of golf memoribilia and memoirs from not only the film but of many pro golfers.

The place boasts a full bar and classy dining room.  The menu consists of burgers, sandwiches, seafood and steak. Pictured above is my favorite - the seafood platter - flounder, shrimp, clam strips, and crab cake served with fries, cole slaw, or any other side you wish for $16.95.   My son loves the burgers and my daughter's favorite is the scallops over rice.

When you visit enjoy a round of golf on world-class fairways or a movie at the Imax theater recently added to the complex.  The food is great, pricing is a little above what a normal dining bill is for a family of four but worth it from time to time.  The only down side to dining there is an unfriendly wait staff.  While they are efficient, any time we dine there they are cold and unwelcoming.  I don't know why but we've never been served by a cheerful server.

Food and atmosphere I definitely give an "A" but for customer service I give it a "C".  Nonetheless, we always like stopping there when we trek through Florida.  If you visit you will like it anyway so you be the judge.
