Iron feels like the clubhouse of the Downtown Food Scene. These guys will learn your name, who you are and what you are doing. Feel free to come in a tux or even swing by right after work. The men and women that wear the uniform are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and always seem to be pushing the bar in the food and hospitality industry. They claim to put modern twist on Southern Classics. This is a must visit while you are in town.. Get it on your schedule and thank us later.

These guys are great and are just around the corner from the house. Blake Rushing always seems to get creative and put fresh new items on the menu but I have to say im stuck on two dishes that never disappoint (1- the brisket melt & 2- the beef short rib). You are walking distance, you would be doing a disservice to yourself if you didn't stop by for a cocktail and grub

There are a few breweries in town but I wanted to list a few of my favorites. This is number one.. These guys are great if you like IPA's and fun vibe that is right on Palafox. From here there is another great bar/brewery two blocks south called Perfect Plain and Garden and Grain. Be sure to check those out as well.

Great brewery within walking distance from the house. If you loved the 90's this is your brewery. They don't serve food but normally have a food truck out front.

Who doesnt like a good food truck - This guy is the real deal.. Great food, Great Service, Creative Fresh Menu.. There are a bunch of trucks in town.. I feel like this guy is the leader in the industry. Stop by and say hello. The owners name is Randy, he works the truck 3/4's of the year then blast off for a good long holiday.

Another top producer in the Food Truck Industry is Erik Pommerening with his truck.. Hands down you wont find a better brisket in the Panhandle and he doesn't stop at his over stuffed brisket melt. Look for Pommerening to be putting together an array of fish sandwiches, noodle bowls, and other tacos that could change from day to day.. These guys are parked outside of Odd Colony pretty regular. Stop by grab a beer and see what Erik has on the menu that day.

Looking for culture and possibly something to take home? Try spending a Saturday morning browsing the booths of local farmers and artist underneath the Crape Myrtles on Palafox. You will find items from fresh honey & vegetables to unique cutting boards hand crafted or grown from families in the Panhandle. Grab a coffee, go for a walk and then come grab brunch and endless mimosa's at The Dog House!

This is one of my all time favorite places in the Panhandle. It really is "Old Florida" untampered with. From the only light on our beach you will take a right and follow the road until you find the Ranger Station. From there you will pay a fee to go in the park. On that road pay attention to the tops of the trees for Bald Eagles and Ospreys's. If you are into birdwatching be sure to make the drive early in the morning when the birds are actively hunting and bringing back fish for their young. Once you reach the fort feel free to walk about and take the tour yourselves or even google Ft Pickens tours for a professional tour guide to educate guests on historic landmarks and events that took place and helped shape what our nation is today. There are parking lots on the North and South sides of the road to pull off, pitch and umbrella and enjoy a beach day as well. If you are looking to get away from crowds and enjoy a pristine Florida beach with loads of history, this is your place!
