The best acai bowl I've ever had. I love the pura vida bowl and I add nutella :) Perfect for after a beach or paddleboard day
Playa Bowls
I usually get the Uptown breakfast sandwich and whatever coffee special they have going at the moment. Really cute smaller spot!
Uptown Eats
This is the sandwich to take to the beach. Order your fav with the sauce on the side to prevent it from getting soggy. They have some really interesting flavor combos, but you can also create your own!
Gateway Subs
THE ESPRESSO SCONE IS TO DIE FOR. Other favs are the breakfast English muffin sandwich and their fresh loaves of sourdough bread. Coffee is good too!
The Sourdough Co
The best turkey sandwich in St. Pete. I love to pair it with the roasted red pepper soup, when they have it available. Cozy pub vibes inside
Stone Soup Cafe & Pub
I get this for lunch often. All of their bowls are delicious, but my favorite is the Mexican bowl. Also their hot honey pizza is one of the better personal pizzas I've found around here
Cali Restaurant | Bowls, Pizza, Tacos and more
This place is BEAUTIFUL. The second you walk in, you're transported to Italy. Think brick walls, candlelit tables, a romantic courtyard with twinkling lights, and authentic Italian food - it's a dream! My favorite is the spaghetti di bologna
Pia's Trattoria
Great spot for a girls night out! Don't skip the meatball appetizer
BellaBrava
Go. Get the wagyu beef tacos. I literally dream about how good they are
Fortu
The short rib ramen is my favorite ramen I’ve found in St. Pete 🤤
Buya Ramen
I always get the chicken tikka masala bollywood bowl with a side of buttermilk naan. It's a large portion - I usually save half for another meal
Twisted Indian
Bars
Good date spot! Has a mid century modern/tropical vibe. Sit at the outside bar and enjoy one of their delicious cocktails and some ceviche
Wild Child
Coffee
Such a fun eclectic little cafe. I love their iced mocha. No wifi at this location, it encourages a more social atmosphere
