Nantucket Bucket closedAs soon as Safety Harbor Connect reported that the Nantucket Bucket, a popular seafood restaurant located in downtown Safety Harbor, had closed, reactions came pouring in via a link to the story on our Facebook page.

The comments run the gamut from sadness to surprise, as the eatery had become a favorite spot for patrons to go for either a seafood dinner or cocktails with friends.

In it’s place Heather Conrad, a former partner at the Bucket and founder of the popular downtown restaurant Heather’s Place, is opening the Harborita Cantina, a casual Mexican eatery that will feature a taco bus style menu and specialty margaritas; it is scheduled to open on Monday, May 5th.

In the meantime, readers have been weighing in with their thoughts about Nantucket Bucket’s closing and Conrad’s newest endeavor in town.
