T2 Bistro Wine - Sanibel Island

What a lovely wine bar with a beautifully curated, straightforward menu! They offer an excellent selection from some fantastic high-end vineyards. We took some time to decide what we wanted, but ultimately we went with the more expensive option. Check out the pictures below, but let me tell you, this wine has some impressive legs!

A hidden gem with a fantastic bistro! They serve one of the best fish sandwiches on the island! The lamb burger is also excellent! The décor is beautiful, and there's outdoor seating available. Plus, the air conditioning is great!

We always dine here when we visit the island! The service is fantastic, and the menu caters to a variety of dietary needs, including vegan and gluten-free options. Everything is delicious!

Trader 2 is a more casual but even more noble version of traders. We visit traders every time we stay on Sanibel/Captiva and were delighted to try Traders 2. It is like a small café with charming decor. Feels trendy and posh. Attention to the napkins and paper straws used. As gluten-free, due to a wheat allergy, I was happy to see the variety of tacos available. The tortillas are handmade and pressed daily. Try the kale and beet tortillas they are a good and colorful option next to corn. Foodies and non-foodies enjoy this place. The food is excellent. My family of four left clean dinners and dessert plates.

A Sanibel gem! Spending two days visiting Sanibel from New York, my time was limited as far as experimenting with eateries. After a lengthy search online for food that wasn’t fried and an atmosphere that wasn’t tiki bar-ish, I narrowed it down to Traders 2 and they did not disappoint. Lovely space with terrific service and a nice assortment of top shelf liquor. Opting for the Shrimp and Scallop pasta special and a gin and tonic made my night. In short, Traders 2 was upscale in atmosphere but casual and friendly in terms of service. I highly recommend.
