Frenchy’s Original Cafe

If you’ve visited St. Pete-Clearwater before, you’ve heard about the Frenchy’s family of restaurants, offering fresh seafood in a flip-flop-casual atmosphere. Here’s your chance to see where it all started way back in 1981 - still going strong. Try This: It would be a sin to dine here without ordering a Super Grouper sandwich and Frenchy’s famous smoked fish spread with crackers.

O'Keefe's Tavern

A tiki bar and outdoor patio with an Irish pub menu? We’re in! This restaurant has been part of the Clearwater dining scene since 1961, so it’s clear they’re doing things right. Try This: Have some traditional Shepherd’s Pie or try an “Irish Puff” - a flaky pastry with corned beef, cabbage and a cream sauce inside.

Wildflower Cafe

This friendly little breakfast-brunch-lunch spot has a pretty outdoor patio and it’s right on the Pinellas Trail, making it a popular spot with bicyclists. Try This: If you have a sweet tooth, order a mimosa and the Mile-High Baked French Toast. Fans of savory dishes will enjoy the Signature Cheesy Grits & Scrambled Eggs or the avocado toast on fresh Challah bread.

Sandbar at Opal Sands

Stroll up to the Sandbar at Opal Sands after a fun day on Clearwater Beach for cool cocktails, great food and a relaxed atmosphere. Try a tiki cocktail such as the Cuban Punch, Blueberry Mojito or a classic Rum Runner.

Jimmy's Crow's Nest
