Food Scene

I LOVE this place! It's an Italian Market that has fresh produce, a meat counter, olive bar, prepared take 'n bake items, a cheese room, lots of wine, coffee bar, bakery counter, a pasta bar with fresh made ready to take home and cook pasta and a fantastic deli that you can order up a sandwich and sides 'to go' or eat it in house on the patio. The cannoli is amazing! Did I mention that I LOVE this place! It can get crowded, but it's worth it!

Yes, another place on Beach Dr to get a frozen treat! They also make candy and fudge. I have an incredibly hard time ordering anything but their Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream, it's one of the best ones I've had!

A unique place downtown, different stations inside for ordering food and drinks or shopping for something to take home! Sit outside at the cafe tables and enjoy the atmosphere of the downtown area.

This place has a cool vibe. It's a walk up, order outside, get your food when your name is called and go sit down and eat it! I like the street tacos, red Sangria and the cinnamon churros! The location is in the midst of downtown near the Central Avenue district which has tons to offer for places to eat and hang out.

This is our go to hole in the wall! There are only 6 tables outside and several inside(we've only sat outside) and a bar top. The burgers are sooooo good and the specials are inexpensive. Our favorite things are the burgers, chicken wings and the 1lb of steamed shrimp which they sell for pennies under $10!!! Seriously! So don't be shocked, it is a hole in the wall near the beach but it has serious food cred on the items we like to eat!

I love the Coconut Shrimp at this place! They have a big restaurant and bar area. It's right on the water at John's Pass. Pop over to the shops at John's Pass and walk around, plenty of souvenir shops here!

This place is right on the beach! Pass-a-Grille beach is beautiful as is the whole peninsula it's on. If you want a really good grouper sandwich or platter...look no more, Paradise Grille is the place we go to!

Drinks & Nightlife

The Canopy is an outdoor rooftop lounge with fire pits, glass railings and views of Tampa Bay. Enjoy drinks before or after dinner. They do have a rooftop menu, so you can have something to eat up there. We've had several items...I particularly like the Truffle Fries!

Arts & Culture

Great venue, seats approximately 2000 people. Small enough to feel intimate but large enough to attract great artists and performances! Great for a date night!

Parks & Nature

A beautifully protected natural environment park. It boasts a wonderful beach area, kayak/paddle board rental area, bike rentals, an Historic Fort and a concession stand. The park's beach area is typically less crowded than St. Pete beach. There's tons of nature to admire, from plants to hundreds of species of birds and don't forget the marine life! There is a toll on the Pinellas Bayway ($1...?) and then a $5 per car fee to get into the park.

White sand beach, isn't this what you came here for! Be prepared to fall in love for the first time or all over again with this beach and your spouse too if you want! There is a public parking lot that you pay for at a kiosk.
