Where to Eat

Stubb's Bar B Que and Live Music - If you are a grilling fan, chances are you've seen Stubb's marinade on the shelves at your local Publix or Kroger. If you haven't had the chance to try it for yourself, why not just start at the source? This eatery boasts some great original marinades and sauces to give you a truly unique experience. While you're there, check their concert calendar, sometimes large touring acts take the stage at Stubb's for an intimate show.

Jeffrey's - If you're looking for something more exotic, check out Jeffrey's. To quote their website "Someone once asked me to describe Jeffrey's in a word - the first one that came to mind was 'alchemy.'" This small restaurant has an eclectic menu that should be as entertaining as it is filling.
