If you're looking for a quick spot to eat in between rides, this is a good choice. Food is quick and delicious. It's nice not to have other food options for a quick meal other than a burger or hot dog.

Texas Roadhouse always serves up a delicious steak! Their yeast rolls are to die for too!!

Zoo Atlanta does a nice job with their exhibits. A fun family-friendly activity!

Steinhatchee, Florida is a fun place for water sports and a great place for scalloping. It's a fun activity to do with kids - it's like hunting for Easter eggs under water!

You'll find hot dogs, ice creams and snacks at Casey's. It's the perfect quick stop while you're in between rides!

Grog is a popular college bar in midtown. Lots of fun if you're a student and plenty of drink specials.

I recently stayed at Tradewinds for my husband's work conference. It's a huge kid-friendly facility. We had great service for all of our events and the wait staff was always friendly.

Cons: Parking can be an issue so prepare to valet!

Beautiful rooftop bar and of course a great view! Plentiful selections of cocktails and friendly service.

The Reitz Union is a great student hub for UF. All the fast food restaurants, book store, bowling alley and more!

My daughter had a sleepover here for a birthday party weekend and the girls had a blast! Lots of fun amenities.

You'll find classic burgers, steaks, and ribs at this steakhouse. Great yeast rolls and always friendly service.

This Regal theater is conveniently located next to several restaurants in the Butler Plaza area so you can do dinner AND a movie!

Charley's always cooks their steaks to perfection! They have a nice restaurant atmosphere with their mood lighting too.

Yummy food and a full bar. Try their Boca Margarita!

Who doesn't love a Farmer's Market?! Check this one out at Union Street. LOTS of vendors!!

This used to be the Bob Carr Theatre for anyone familiar with Orlando years ago. This is a beautiful building with a convenient downtown location!

This is a must-see for anyone visiting Key West! Watch the sundown at Mallory Square EVERY NIGHT and enjoy a variety of entertainers, merchants, artists, and psychics. You'll find the cat trainer guy who has been there for decades, and a ton of jewelry vendors and artists with handmade paintings and crafts. There are some great food vendors too - check out the quac guy!

A fun evening hot spot for some great live music and delicious libations! They're conveniently located on Front Street too.

It's a must-see if you're a Papa Hemingway fan. It's gotten pretty touristy over the years and there is usually a sing-along band during peak times. The food is solid and they sell lots of memorabilia if you want to bring home a t-shirt.

I make this a destination every time I get to Key West. It's a great way to kick off a vacation. Good grub and their shuffleboard set up is fun for everyone in your group.
