Sundown on October 29, 2015 was the end of an era as a day-long celebration of Seagrove Village Market Café came to an end. Free food, beer, wine, and music was shared with hundreds of people inside the old market, and outside in the parking lot and on the street. George and Ann Hartley went out with a bang and opened the doors of the old market for the last time.
Seasons pass and visitors ebb and flow, but one thing is a constant on Scenic 30A: Sundays are Fundays at Local Catch Bar & Grill. The parking lot fills and cars line the street as folks flock to listen to Forrest Williams, enjoy great food, and unwind with friends.
Bud & Alley's owner Dave Rauschkolb never skimps on research. When he decided that Bud & Alley’s would begin breakfast service, he and the crew packed their bags and caught a flight to New York in search of menu inspiration. After seeking out the most important meal of the day all over the city, they brought the best recipes back to the place with the best view in the world. Breakfast at Bud & Alley’s was born.

30Avenue is the premier lifestyle venue along Northwest Florida’s Gulf Coast where shopping, food and fun meet work and play. Located in Inlet Beach at the intersection of Highway 98 and Scenic Highway 30A in Inlet Beach, Florida, with a central green for relaxing, water fountains located throughout the property, majestic palm trees, and generous parking, 30Avenue is the perfect place to visit with friends and family.
In our area, we are fortunate to have two premier beach destinations that merge almost seamlessly together. While they are neighbors, each offers a unique experience. The remarkable communities of which we speak are, of course, South Walton and Destin.
South Walton is comprised of a varied collection of “towns” that nestle predominantly along Scenic Highway 30A. Each offers their own interpretation of a life well lived by the beach.
Sandro and Emily Wever are the husband and wife dream team behind Chanticleer Eatery. Since opening in June of 2012, they have shared their collective food vision with SoWal, and the result is a legion of loyal customers.
The couple met while working in a restaurant, so creating food together has always come naturally to them. And much like the ideal relationship, Chanticleer’s food is homey, satisfying, full of flavor, and sometimes spicy.
It’s shoulder season in SoWal and our friends at Local Catch are showing some serious love to the SoWal community that helped get the word out about their wonderful restaurant. Now in their fourth year of business, owners Jimmy Hasser and Adam Yellin are dedicating the menu this fall to the local crowd.
