Things To Do
Saint Pete Pier
This pier is brand new and walking distance from The Vinoy. It is a beautiful place to walk around and look at the water and maybe even see a dolphin. There are multiple restaurants and bars on the pier. Check out the website to see all of the options.
Fort De Soto Park
This is where Gordy and I took our engagement photos. This is a beautiful park and beach. If you are looking for somewhere to relax on the beach this is where we would recommend.
The Canopy
This is a rooftop bar downtown also walking distance from The Vinoy. They have great cocktails and appetizers. It is a perfect place for happy hour to watch the sun set over the bay.
The Lure
This is a Jacobs family favorite. They have great sushi and tons of good cocktails to choose from. We like the "That's Amore" and "The Hollister" rolls.
Park & Rec DTSP
If you are looking for a bar where you can also play tons of games, look no further! From life size peer pong, to corn hole, to air hockey Park & Rec has something for everyone. This bar is right down town. They have good food and great frozen drinks. Its also right next door to the Avenue which has amazing burgers,
Trophy Fish
Trophy fish is a St. Pete hidden gem. They have a fresh fish of the day that you can choose to have prepared in many different ways. It is one of Ali's favorites. She recommends the "fin and tonic" to go along with your fresh fish.
Copper Shaker
If you are looking for a place with craft cocktails this is one of our favorite places. I personally love the "bees knees" and Gordy usually sticks to an Old Fashioned. It is also downtown, near many other bars.
Red Mesa Cantina
Red Mesa is a Mexican restaurant with an awesome atmosphere and a rooftop bar. Lindsey loves the "Hot Carlos" margarita.
The Galley: A St. Pete Tavern
This is a recommendation from Sara and Buddy. Sara says this is more of a dive bar with a "epic" grouper sandwich. She recommends the "St. Pete Grouper San."
Ceviche Tapas St. Pete
Ceviche is one of Lindsey and Sara's favorite restaurants. The restaurant is mostly tapas but also has large paellas. Sara and Lindsey recommend the octopus ceviche and the croquetas.
Mandarin Hide
This is a bar downtown known for their craft cocktails. One of Lindsey's bridesmaids, Bianca, highly recommends trying their bramble.
Bodega on Central
Bodega is a small little Cuban restaurant. Lindsey says they have the best Cuban sandwich she's ever had. Ellen really likes the lechon platter. This is a perfect place to grab lunch, walk around central, do a little shopping, and bar hop if you would like.
