Kermit's

Key West


Satisfy your innermost cravings for all things key lime–related at this long-running institution near the waterfront. You'll find salsa, barbecue sauce, candies, ice cream, dog biscuits and even wine all bearing that distinctive key lime flavor. Purists may prefer to settle for a pie (mini pies available) or perhaps a chocolate-dipped key lime popsicle.

There's also a cafe here with a full menu (where you can nibble on gazpacho with key lime among other things).
