History

Established in 2006.

Originally 514 State Street was a car dealership and later became a series of successful bars/restaurants. Prior to our purchase of Sandbar, James and John Maxwell bought calypso and changed the name to Sandbar. We purchased it in August of 2006. In August of 2007 we put in a full Mexican menu. We've been very blessed with the success we've had since that time. We recently revised our menu to include items like fresh ceviche, home made tortillas and market fresh margaritas. Sandbar
