🍽️ Restaurant News |
🍨 Alotta Gelato is open at the Golden Lion — 501 N. Oceanshore Blvd., Flagler Beach. Italian gelato on the county’s busiest A1A patio. Easy dessert after any Lion set this weekend.
🍔 Johnny D’s Beach Bar & Grill — 319 Moody Blvd., Flagler Beach. Local bar-and-grill energy right as you come over the bridge — pizza, pub bites, late kitchen. Flagler Beach regulars already know; if you don’t, this is your intro.
🏄 Ragga Surf Cafe — Marineland (9600 N. Oceanshore Blvd.). Scratch breakfast by the water, Tue–Sun 7 a.m.–2 p.m. (closed Mon). My personal favorite breakfast. The vibes are awesome. Highly recommend.
🍩 Swillerbees Craft Donuts — Flagler Beach (205 N. Central) and Palm Coast (85 Cypress Point Pkwy). Handmade donuts every morning, doors at 6 a.m. Grab a box before the beach or the Stage — this is the local morning move.
🦞 Lobsterfest + oysters at the Lion — Oyster happy hour daily 3–6, $14/dz at the raw bar. Valet $5 Fri–Sat evenings / Sunday afternoon if A1A is a mess.
