The Kapok Tree Inn Restaurant is a legendary historic memory. Florida natives and tourists old enough to have been around awhile will remember the restaurant that pleased people during the years from 1958 to 1991.
At its peak, the Kapok Tree in Clearwater had 12 dining rooms. The restaurant was so popular they went public in the 1970's and opened several other Kapok Tree Inns in Florida and Maryland. None remain in operation.
