A perfect beach day on Anna Maria Island has a way of making you never want to leave your chair. Crisp blue skies, warm sunshine, a cool Gulf breeze, and the kind of relaxation that’s hard to come by. The last thing you want is to pack up and head somewhere just because hunger strikes.
The good news is you don’t have to. Anna Maria Island has a surprisingly good lineup of food and beverage delivery options that bring everything from fresh coconuts and artisan sandwiches to full luxury picnics right to your spot on the sand. Before you head out, make sure your beach bag essentials are packed and your beach setup is sorted, then let the food come to you. Here’s everything you need to know.
AMI Coconuts
AMI Coconuts delivers fresh, handcrafted coconuts directly to your beach chair, rental, or boat in about an hour or less. Orders are placed through their website. Their menu features organic Costa Rican coconut water served as a straight pour or blended into creative tropical drinks with fresh juices, citrus, mint, and natural sweeteners. Non-alcoholic and genuinely refreshing on a hot Gulf Coast day.
Graze Street AMI
Graze Street AMI is a chef-driven modern market offering artisan sandwiches, salads, sweet treats, and an impressive selection of specialty goods including charcuterie, small-batch olive oils, jams, honey, and more. Call, email, or stop by the shop to place your order and they will deliver. Their sandwich menu covers everything from a classic Italian and Beachy BLT to a Green Goddess and Chicken Salad, and their charcuterie boxes are available in sizes that work for couples or larger groups.
Gulf Shore Charcuterie
Gulf Shore Charcuterie specializes in luxury grazing boxes and boards delivered directly to your rental or beach chair. Whether you are looking for a beautifully curated individual box or a large spread for a group, they have options across a wide range of sizes. Contact them through their website to place your order.
Island Eats Delivery
Island Eats Delivery brings Anna Maria Island’s local restaurant scene straight to you, whether you are at your rental or settled into your beach chair. With a flat delivery fee and a lineup of local favorites, it is one of the easiest ways to enjoy the island’s food without leaving the sand.

Sandy Toes Luxury Beach Picnics & Concierge
Sandy Toes takes beach dining to another level entirely. They offer luxury brunch and sunset picnics set up directly on the beach, complete with gourmet food, beautiful presentation, and thoughtful options for a range of dietary needs including gluten-free, dairy-free, and Keto-Paleo choices. Picnics are themed, timed to golden hour or morning light, and can accommodate groups of up to 20 guests. If a sunset picnic sounds like your kind of evening, pair it with a sunset cruise on Anna Maria Island for a golden hour you won’t forget. If you are celebrating something special, this one is hard to beat.
Scott’s Deli
Scott’s Deli is a local staple with a menu built around fresh, locally sourced ingredients and a rotating selection of weekly specials. They deliver to the beach, and you can even build a custom lunch box for boat delivery the morning of your excursion, a detail worth knowing if you are heading out on a boat tour. Their menu covers breakfast sandwiches, cold and hot sandwiches, street tacos, salads, hot dogs, coffee, smoothies, and a solid assortment of desserts. Delivery in Holmes Beach is free with a minimum order, with a small fee for the rest of the island. To order, call and tell them where to find you.
Coastal Close
A great beach day should be exactly that from start to finish. With delivery options covering everything from a fresh coconut to a full sunset picnic, there is no reason to cut your time on the Gulf short. Get your beach setup sorted, pack your bag with the essentials, order ahead, and let the food come to you.
Until next time…
