Chloe’s St Pete guidebook
Food scene
This is a very nice restaurant which will definitely impress, with spectacular seafood, however be warned the price impresses also! The “Fire and Ice” platter is amazing, but so are the meals at al a Carte. Make sure you don’t go over board on the mains because the milk chocolate dome is definitely worth it, or a selection of some of their Norman Love chocolate. Ps. You also get candy floss at the end of your meal with the check – which you can ask to take home with you.

I know I know its in the hospital, however it is super easy to get a park outside on a Wednesday night? The food is fabulous, the atmosphere is fabulous and they also have a fabulous brunch (not so easy to get a park on a Sunday). We have been here several times, with friends, on our little weekly date and with Max for Brunch. Well worth a diversion from Beach Drive.

The food and drinks are great. It is love to sit outside on the sidewalk, relax and eat but the real winner are the cakes and cookie which they have in the Casis Bakery. We open stop for coffee and dessert at the bakery after dinner for a treat. Now if they ever bring back the duck poutine which they once had on the menu – that’s work having dinner there for.

This is the best Mexican and margaritas downtown. It is also very hop and cool. It is a great place to grab dinner before a night out downtown or to chill on a Sunday. They have both outside and inside seating. We have sat outside with Max many times (which is more relaxed as he is at that loud toddler age).

This is another of our favorite restaurants. We recommend getting some small plates and trying a little bit of everything. The roti is a staple which we always get as an appetizer. We have taken many of our guests from out of town here and is often our choice when we feel like a causal, relaxed but cool night out. The restaurant is located down Central Ave in the Edge District, near Tropicana Field. (We have often got it to go – via Uber Eats also)

Perhaps not the best bar and cocktails but make the trip up the elevator for the view and the people watching. It looks out over beach drive and the marina, especially pretty at sunset. It is completely outside so not ideal in wet weather.

Great for a French inspired lunch and the dinner is lovely too. It does shut at 9pm so if you are looking to have dinner during the week make sure you are there early. I would say for dinner its more of a date night restaurant, but for lunch (which is delicious) it is more causal.

It I a traditional Spanish restaurant, which is well known in the Tampa Bay area. The original Columbia is in Ybor, however the food in Clearwater does not disappoint. Chloe likes to get several tapas for her dinner, however I can’t go past the steak. The restaurant sits on the banks of the intercoastal, so you have a pretty view while enjoying your dinner.

It features a permanent collection of Salvador Dali artwork in a beautiful building along the St Pete waterfront. The museum Usually also features a seasonal exhibit related to Dali. It is set out very well and is interesting for those who are even not artistically interested. Audio guides also provided as well as regular tours.

• A trip over our famous bridge is a lot of time, perhaps head down toward Bradenton/Sarasota for one of the activities below. The bridge also has two fishing piers which were part of the original skyway bridge. Toll is $1.25 each way which can be paid with cash or Sunpass.

DAY TRIP SUGGESTIONS: FOOD AND DRINK
• Armature Works – Oak and Ola – one of the fabulous restaurants here... in our opinion the food at Oak and Ola is much better than Ulele. However there are many food and drink options to choose from in the “food hall” - Google it – it is well worth a visit. TIP If you go during the day there is a splash pad next to Ulele which is great for the kids – Water Works Park.
• Soho – Great bars / restaurants
• Burn’s Steak House (Tampa) – Very famous fine dining – must make a booking – they give you tours of the kitchen and have a separate AMAZING desert restaurant
