While Jeff and Genie McNally—owners of The Floridian—are working on the build out and relocation of their beloved restaurant (opening in Summer of 2026 on the Island), they unveiled another craveable dining concept steeped in equal parts nostalgia and novelty. Bea's Fine Foods + All Day Cafe—named for Executive Chef Genie McNally's grandmother—offers creative comfort food for cafe-style Brunchy-Lunch, Pizza Happy Hour and Supper Club. Brunchy-Lunch menu features fresh-baked pastries, daily "by the slice" Breakfast Pizza and a Frittata du Jour. Signature items such as the Brisket Biscuit—Cartwheel Ranch braised brisket stacked on a homemade three-cheese and scallion buttermilk biscuit, served with hot honey and pepper jelly—offer a fresh take on stick-to-your-ribs classics. Bea's The Grain Bowl and The Salad can be topped with your protein of choice; The Burger is made with locally raised beef and vegetarians are accommodated equally with veggie-forward items such as Polenta & Summer Squash Shakshuka. The "Supper Club" menu offers Cast Iron Pizzas—build your own or select from Chef's Genie's ingenious combinations. Main dishes feature fresh catch, a few favorite entrées from The Floridian's menu as well as reinvented Southern classics with global flair such as Chicken Adobo with a creamy coconut shallot broth. The menu also features sharing plates like Beet Poke and Citrus Baked Brie, craveable side dishes and housemade desserts. With 40 seats inside and additional covered front porch seating, the vibe at Bea’s is pure 1970s beach—warm, bright and cheerful. Serving Brunchy-Lunch 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Pizza Happy Hour 3 - 5 p.m. and Supper Club from 4:30 to close, Bea's is open Wednesday through Monday and is closed on Tuesday.
