The Granary

The Granary
2547 Lakewood Ranch Blvd Bradenton, FL 34211

“The Granary” here on the Suncoast takes its name from an old mill that would traditionally store grain. The decor of “The Granary” looks and feels like a reclaimed barn with stone walls and farm wheels. The furnishings have a rustic look to them to continue the theme. Guests are able to order breakfast and lunch all day, with the menu offering traditional favorites with a modern twist. Continuing “The Granary” theme, the menu offers a wide variety of bread from thick country white to marble rye, multi-grain baguettes to gluten-free buns. A bar serves wines, champagne, and draft beers, offering customers another twist to their choices on offer. From creative mimosa mixtures to local craft beers, there is a nice range on offer. Completing “The Granary” experience is the specialty coffee and pastry menu. Customers can pop in and order a caramel latte to-go, or they can leisurely order a coffee and pastry and relax in the atmosphere around them.

Hours: Monday through Saturday, 7:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m.; closed Sundays
