Doc Ford's fame is in the name; a tropical crime fighting character in 20 books written by author Randy Wayne White. White is a silent partner who can occasionally be found at the bar in any of the three area locations. Sanibel is home to the original Doc Ford's restaurant which moved to a beautiful, spacious building surrounded by tropical foliage at the end of summer 2016. The fictional character might be the original appeal for some diners, but it's the fresh seafood that keeps Doc's rocking. An upscale sports bar serving cuisine with a Caribbean flare, the sauces are all made from scratch and the Yucatan Shrimp is award winning. Don't forget, Doc's is also a rum bar, serving more than 40 selections. Be sure to save room for the Keylime Pie.
