Where to eat

Kids welcome, food worth it.

  • Amavida Coffee Roasters

    Coffee$

    The local roaster on Barrett Square, 6:30am to 7pm — the pre-market coffee stop; the Seaside outpost pours the same beans.

  • Cowgirl Kitchen Feed & Supply

    Market & deli$$

    Breakfast tacos, sandwiches and picnic provisions a block off Barrett Square — open 10 to 7 daily.

  • La Crema Tapas & Chocolate

    Sit-down$$

    Tapas for the grown-ups, chocolate fondue for everyone — a Main Street dinner that ends in dessert by design.

  • The Sugar Shak

    Dessert$

    Candy wall, homemade fudge and bubble tea until 10pm — set the budget before you walk in, not after.

  • The Summer Kitchen Café

    Sit-down$$

    Breakfast-through-lunch spot steps from Barrett Square — pairs naturally with the Sunday market. Doors close at 3.

Parents' night out

Book the sitter. Then book these.

  • Edward's Fine Food & Wine Courtyard dinners off Barrett Square — no reservations, so arrive at 5 or wait with a glass of wine. Website
  • Gallion's Upscale coastal plates and a serious whiskey-and-wine cellar on Barrett Square — dinner is 18-and-up, so book the sitter. Website
  • Havana Beach Bar & Grill The Pearl hotel's polished dining room — brunch daily, dinner seatings from 5, best enjoyed without a booster seat. Website
  • Havana Beach Rooftop Lounge The Pearl's rooftop over Barrett Square — Gulf views, walk-in only, happy hour 3 to 6. One for the sitter nights. Website
  • Pescado Seafood Grill & Rooftop Bar Fine-dining seafood with a rooftop over the Gulf — 18-and-up except Sunday brunch, so this one is strictly a sitter play. Website
  • Restaurant Paradis Low-lit Gulf seafood and prime steaks on Barrett Square — the anniversary-dinner room, bar open till midnight. Website
