The shelves are stocked with hard cider, smoked fish dip, raw milk, spice rubs, fresh flowers and honey.
Over in the cold case, assorted steaks sidle stone crab claws, yellowfin tuna, grouper filets, mussels and oysters.
In the busy dining room, guests dig into bowls of shrimp and grits, grin over po’boys toppling with fried seafood, and admire plates of seared red snapper and pan-fried trout.
Not all of it is local. But a lot of it is. And most of what’s on offer at the Tides Seafood Market & Provisions — in the grocery aisles or on the dinner plate — has been thoughtfully selected with sustainability and small producers in mind. It’s the driving force behind this charming, ever-evolving seafood market and restaurant in downtown Safety Harbor.
