Jetty Lounge

Come for the frozen rum runners, don’t actually stay here. Even though it is illegal to smoke indoors, people still do it here. The bar itself is dark, divey, and smokey. The rum runners are cold, refreshing, and delicious. You can get them to go! DO THAT.

Convenient location, wasn’t impressed with the small, closed in room filled with smoke. The room is cramped, long bar, small area with two dart boards but really too cramped to play. Their famous rumrunners are frozen and extremely strong! They actually sell them to go, not sure how safe that is. I had one and I felt intoxicated, had to drink water to sober up some before leaving, it was the ONLY drink I had. I probably wouldn’t go back when you have better selection right next door.

Dirty little dive in a dirty little town, but you would be extremely lame if you don’t come here and at least get a RUM RUNNER to go. It would be like going to Pisa and not seeing the Leaning Tower. And with just one you can BE the leaning tower!

Great place to drink and have a good time!!! Try to go during a week day early meet Wendy she won’t be nice but she makes the bar fun!!! No one wants a boring bartender, and Wendy is anything but that!

I read few reviews about the Jetty and the famous rum runners. So this last weekend I brought few for my wife and me. Excellent choice, really a nice place and the people are very friendly. I will go back again.

Rum Runners are great, but I only have one (not much of a sweets guy) then I go to whiskey or beer. The crowd is a bit surly at times, but that’s why I come here. If you end up in the parking after last call with one of the local women that frequent this place. You either all ready had a good night or you’re about to have a great night.

great drinks. great locals.

We went out of our way to visit this place based on Unilocal reviews. It was worth it! The to-​go rum runners (in paper bags) were tasty and very strong. At $ 7 a bottle, you really only need a couple to thoroughly embarrass yourself in front of people on the beach.

To go rum runners is all you need to know about the best /​worst decision you will make while visiting the jetty lounge. Not only are these the best sure way to forget everything, including your day, but you can do this right on the beach front.

Cheap drinks. Located conveniently near… wait for it… the jetty. Rum runner is the way to go if you’re a first timer. Pretty good bang for your buck. Friendly staff, albeit overwhelmed.
If you have any qualms about reeking of cigarette smoke, then avoid this bar. It’s usually packed with twenty-​something & fifty-​something locals — not much in between. Hillbilly karaōke is pretty common here late night.
They also have a drive up window.

SMOKING BAR… GET A RUM RUNNER… LOCAL DIVE… that is all!

As a former resident of Fort Pierce, getting a Rumrunner to go was something that I took for granted while I lived there. Although it’s something that I did on a somewhat regular basis, now that I’ve moved away, I realize that it’s a one-​of-​a-​kind treat.
Nowadays, when I come to town it is absolutely mandatory that I grab one to go, and walk the jetty. No trip to Ft. Pierce is complete without it!

After reading the reviews about the Jetty, decided to stop in and order a couple of the famous Rum Runners to-​go and watch the sunset.
Definitely a unique, authentic Florida experience. A chance to mingle with the locals and the staff was very friendly.
The frozen rum runners were strong… and delicious! At $ 6 each, the Rum Runners were totally with the money! Will definitely return!

I’m kinda sad I didn’t get to review this place first, because it is a staple of life in Fort Pierce. If you haven’t been to the Jetty, then you probably never lived in the Fort. If you want a taste of real South Florida at it’s best I recommend the Jetty.

Florida Fun Fact 6 (see other Florida reviews for 1 – 5): Florida is a fucked up place. You can buy frozen cocktails to go and drink them hobo style from a paper bag!
The Jetty lounge is a local bar that serves to-​go frozen Rumrunners! That is right. TO-​GO! So my Mom first took me here 6 years ago. Thanks Mom! I remembered it as a highlight then and now it is like getting my picture taken with Mickey Mouse, a memory that I will cherish forever.
I walked into the place and the bartender approached and I said «One to-​go please.» I then actually hopped up and down and clapped my hands, it really is just like seeing Mickey Mouse. She saw my excitement and commented on how happy I was, boy was I ever!
So you get one frozen cocktail to-​go in a hobo bag and you leave to do what you will. Guess what I did. I drank it on the Jetty! Only the fanciest of hobos drink frozen cocktails on the jetty. If only I had a top hat and a monocle, then everyone would know for sure as to my status amongst the hobo elite.
Jetty Lounge it is a good thing you are right next to the BlueWater Grille, cause you are mandatory stop #2.
