One thing is sure about Miamians: we freaking love a boat day. Put us out on the water and let us live our best lives. All that sun (and likely day drinking) is bound to work up an appetite and having the perfect boat day eats is key to curating the best boat day ever.

From a build your own taco bar to stone crabs and fried chicken to family-sized bowls of some of Miami’s most iconic bites, there’s really no shortage of great spots offering easy to transport, large format food for a crowd that plans on hanging outside all day.

Forever one of the absolute best boat day options, Chicken Kitchen is a local chain with locations all over the city meaning, you’re likely close to one as you prepare to head to the marina. Family (serves 4 to 5) and Party-sized (serves 8 to 10) Chop-Chop bowls are the go to move here. Pair a bowl or two — might we suggest the Cuban featuring chicken, black beans, tomato, and lettuce — with a quesadilla platter and perhaps a family-sized salad and an order of balsamic tomatoes and you’re good to go. They even provide plates, utensils, and plenty of curry mustard (and other sauces as well). And the best part? No need to worry about ordering in advance. In fact, you can even order the large format bowls via Uber Eats for delivery right to the dock just before you set sail just as easily as you can pop into one of their locations and order on the spot.
