About Us
Our Story
Drift-In AMI is the icon of Anna Maria Island. Located on Historic Bridge Street in the heart of Bradenton Beach, “The Drift” is famous for Ice Cold Cocktails, Live Music, and daily entertainment including Bingo, Bar Poker, and Karaoke! The Legend Himself, aka the Sultan of Swat, George Herman BABE Ruth once owned “The Drift”. Today lifelong Bradenton residents Derek and Helena Williams own Drift-In AMI taking over the reins from the one and only Jose Cuervo and Mrs. Angie in December 2022.
