Our favorite place to order food from - they have great salads and sandwiches for lunch and pasta dishes and entrees for dinner that are generously sized. Don't skip out on the dessert options there either - they have a huge case of various cakes that are amazing.

About a 15 minute drive but worth it for the views of the waterway, extensive menu, and great service. We've never been disappointed here.

Our go for ordering pizza, but they also offer various pasta dishes and other Italian options. They do deliver but make sure to give extra time for delivery with the summer crowds.

Bagels, donuts, and sandwiches so a great option for breakfast and/or lunch. There is a bar in the rear of the restaurant that stays open the evenings with bar service. There is an outdoor seating area where you can watch boats coming in going.

A must have when visiting the beach! There is a store front on Causeway Drive but you'll also see their carts on the beach. Make sure you bring cash to the beach if you think you might want some of this refreshing treat.
