Happy Holidays from The Feast Restaurant on Anna Maria Island
As part of our holiday schedule, The Feast Restaurant will have limited hours on Christmas Eve, allowing our hardworking team time to celebrate with their loved ones, and we will be closed on Christmas Day. We look forward to welcoming everyone back shortly after to continue the celebrations with great food, handcrafted cocktails, and warm hospitality.
Celebrating the Holiday Spirit on Anna Maria Island
There’s something uniquely magical about the holidays on Anna Maria Island. Without the rush of big-city crowds, the island offers a relaxed and authentic coastal holiday experience. Families gather, friends reconnect, and restaurants like The Feast become natural gathering places where memories are made over incredible meals.
For many of our guests, dining out during the holidays isn’t just about food—it’s about tradition. Whether you’re enjoying a festive dinner after a day at the beach or stopping in for cocktails to toast the season, The Feast Restaurant is proud to be part of your holiday rituals year after year. Once again, we say Happy Holidays from The Feast to our island neighbors and visitors alike.
A Brief History of The Feast Restaurant
The Feast Restaurant has a rich and meaningful history on Anna Maria Island. Originally founded as A Moveable Feast, the concept began as a gourmet food delivery service focused on quality ingredients and thoughtfully prepared meals. Over time, that passion evolved into the full-service restaurant locals and visitors know and love today.
Located in Holmes Beach, The Feast Restaurant has become a staple of the island’s dining scene, known for its European-inspired cuisine, fresh seafood, house-made pasta, and warm, welcoming atmosphere. Through renovations, new menus, and even weathering powerful Florida hurricanes, The Feast has remained committed to consistency, quality, and community.
Each chapter of The Feast’s story reflects resilience and growth—values that resonate deeply during the holiday season. That journey is only possible because of the loyal guests and dedicated staff who have supported the restaurant through every stage.
Gratitude for Our Guests and Community
This holiday season, gratitude is at the heart of everything we do. We are incredibly thankful for the locals who dine with us weekly, the visitors who make The Feast part of their Anna Maria Island vacations, and the friends who recommend us to family and neighbors.
Dining locally helps keep the island vibrant, and your continued support allows us to invest back into our staff, our ingredients, and our community. From celebrating anniversaries and birthdays to casual lunches and elegant dinners, we are honored to be part of your special moments.
To everyone who has walked through our doors this year—Happy Holidays from The Feast. Your support truly means the world to us.

Behind every memorable meal is a dedicated team, and The Feast Restaurant is fortunate to have some of the best professionals in the industry. From our chefs and kitchen staff to our servers, bartenders, and support team, each person plays a vital role in creating the experience our guests have come to expect.
The holidays can be one of the busiest times of year in the restaurant industry, and our team consistently rises to the occasion with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. Closing on Christmas Day allows our staff the opportunity to rest, recharge, and enjoy meaningful time with their families—something we deeply value.
We are endlessly grateful for their hard work, creativity, and commitment. This season, we celebrate them just as much as we celebrate our guests.
