We had two fabulous meals at Timbers during our recent stay in Sanibel. Both times the food was delicious and service was great. Our server during our first visit, Sarah, was absolutely outstanding! They are currently running some 30th anniversary specials which are a good, more cost-effective means if you are on a tighter budget. But even with drinks and... more

One of my close friends recommended going to Sanibel for great seafood at the Timbers. We were very impressed. The cocktails were cold and delicious. The peel and eat shrimp were good but the best part was the crunchy grouper. Never had anything like that before. My husband had the filet and it was cooked to perfection. The manager Ron... more

Turned up without a reservation to find almost all tables occupied during the 'quiet' season. Delicious food, attentive service. Child menu was great as it was small portions of proper food rather than burgers, fish fingers, fries etc. more

Just OK
