Hookin' Ain't Easy Seafood Company is a family owned business that was built from the ground up by Captain Matthew who has commercially fished the waters of Tampa Bay for over 20 years.We pride ourselves in a vast variety of seafood for your pleasure.

There is a new star in the making in south St. Pete. Hookin’ Ain’t Easy, located at 3660 22nd Avenue South, just celebrated the grand opening of its café and tiki bar, and we were blown away on our first visit to the new hot spot for fresh catch dishes and delicious smoked meats.

The outdoor restaurant, an extension of Hookin’ Ain’t Easy’s indoor seafood market, is a little slice of paradise, offering up great food, cold drinks, and a relaxing atmosphere. Currently, the café is open Wednesday-Saturday 11 am – 7 pm, and Sunday from 11 am – 5 pm, with live music Friday-Sunday. Owners say they hope to soon extend hours to be open later.
