Finish a beautiful lunch along the river dining al fesco, or inside the cafe alongside an original wood bar, and don't forget to finish with traditional Flan or their decadent White Chocolate Bread Pudding."

"Goody Goody Burgers is the resurrection of an iconic Tampa diner that was opened in 1925 as the first drive-in east of the Mississippi. The new incarnation is the brainchild of restaurateur Richard Gonzmart, owner of the famous Columbia Restaurant. No expense was spared in recreating the recipes, decor, and ambiance of the original with just a few changes to appeal to modern diners."
"Goody Goody is located in Hyde park and open from 7 am to 9 pm. If you are looking for pancakes, they are the best breakfast in Tampa. Each pancake served is 12 inches!"
"Locally known for its famous Rum Runners and award-winning bartenders, our Cabana Beach Bar is the perfect place to take-away a cool drink. A tropical vibe and stunning sunset views make our outdoor St. Pete beach bar a one-of-a-kind experience. Hours: Noon – 10:00 p.m.(hours may vary)"
"A Tampa institution, Bern’s opened as a steak sandwich shop back in 1953. Today, the seemingly haunted mansion stands proud as a truly impressive family-owned establishment. Reservations are necessary but entirely worth it for a filet that comes with a loaded baked potato, seasonal salad, and organic sides (Bern’s even has its own farm where seasonal goodies are grown for the restaurant)."
"Tampa’s premier restaurant is more than a steakhouse; it’s an experience. Dry-aged, hand-carved prime grade steaks and organic vegetables are just the start. Bern’s also has the largest restaurant wine collection in the country (and it’s surprisingly affordable)."
"Consider sneaking across the street for some heavenly dessert at The Harry Waugh Dessert Room at Bern’s Steak House. Stay another night at the Grand Hyatt."
"You don’t have to stray far from the sand or pool to enjoy breakfast, sandwiches, salads, and beverages all day. The Beach Bar & Snack Shack offers tasty meals and bites with poolside service. The Beach Bar & Snack Shack is the very definition of a “beach bar,” a place where you can fully live in vacation mode."
"Editor's Note: Photo taken from the establishment's official social account. White Claw, PCI Beach Bar, and Live DJ kicks off at 1pm. All the things you’ll need for the best Saturday ever."
"Take a break from the beach to dig into hot dogs, burgers, and more, or sink your toes into the sand as you cool off over a beer or cocktail."
