Pete & Shorty's Tavern, established in Clearwater in 1997, by the owners of Hooters Restaurants and several key Hooters employees, offers a wide-ranging menu, with signature items like the oversized Pork Tenderloin Sandwich, the Loose-meat Pete Sandwich, and the local's favorite, Shorty Burgers, as well as dinners featuring steaks, seafood, and chicken. The restaurant features a full liquor bar and two happy hours daily, as well as an outdoor deck for fresh air dining or to enjoy afternoon cocktails.
Based on popular Midwestern-style neighborhood gathering spots, Pete & Shorty's has proven to be popular in the Clearwater area and in Las Vegas, Nevada, both with out-of-town visitors and regular customers who appreciate the camaraderie of the staff and management, as well as the comfortable and unpretentious surroundings, and friendly, competent service.
"We felt it was time to start sharing Pete & Shorty's with the rest of the world," remarked President and COO, Ed West. "There isn't a better time to expand this casual, inexpensive concept than in today's market," he continued, "because everybody needs a place to gather and enjoy some stress-free time with friends and neighbors, without breaking the family budget."
