We recommend that everyone stay at St. Johns Town Center so they are close to the venue. There are endless restaurants and bars to choose from. Below are a couple we recommend if you want to stay close to the hotel.

Riverside is the heart of the arts scene in the Jacksonville area. Cummer Museum is a great daytime activity to get out of the heat. Keg and Coin is our favorite arcade; we have had many date nights here. There are many great restaurants in the area, but some of our favorites are Taqueria Cinco, Cool Moose, and Sweet Theory Baking Co.

Neptune Beach has fun bars and restaurants to embrace the traditional Florida Beach vibes! You can enjoy a nice walk on the beach then head over to Lemon Bar - a beach bar on the water. After drinks, walk to Hawkers Asian Street Food or North Beach Fish Camp for dinner. If you want to go out to the beach for breakfast, you can't go wrong with Southern Grounds Co.

Jacksonville Beach is just south of Neptune Beach. Nice bars include Jekyll Brewing and Oaxaca Club. You can grab dinner at V Pizza or Hoptinger's Bier Garden. Maple Street Biscuit Company and Round Bird Coffee are delicious ways to start your day- we recommend you grab breakfast to go then have a picnic on the beach.
