Palm Beach, FL Guide
Thanks to my semi-snowbirding parents and their new found love for Florida, I have been fortunate enough to spend a lot of weekends over the past few years enjoying the sunshine state and all the beauty that comes with it. At first, I was a tad disappointed by the restaurant scene. However, once I got over the fact that 99.9% of the restaurants are in strip malls, started exploring, and some new additions were brought to the table, I now have a pretty stable list of favorites. Whether you are looking for a nice restaurant for a birthday celebration that turns into a bit of a scene (hello Buccan) or a casual laid back tiki bar to watch the sunset (Guanabanas is my favorite place on this earth), I've got you covered.
In this guide I've included some of my favorite restaurants, grocery stores, and workout facilities in the Palm Beach / Jupiter / Juno area (since that is where I spend my time and am the most familiar with). I've also relied on my incredible followers (thank you all!) for their recommendations and, after vetting the places online, have included those as well. All of the spots with the ** afterwards are ones I have personally been to and love!This list will be ever growing so continue to check back for more updates!
