Restaurants near Watersound

“We had a 6pm reservation and were greeted happily by the hostess and were sat at our table promptly. The atmosphere was beautiful. We ordered one drink, something with pear, that was so refreshing and delicious. My husband’s NY Strip was cooked to perfection, and my stuffed chicken dish was excellent. The BRUSSELS!!! Very good. Our service was phenomenal, and the attention of the staff (never once did we need a water refill, never once was there a dirty dish on our table) was superb. Highly recommended for an elevated dining experience!”

“Ordered pizzas two times in two nights
Pizzas are great - crust not too thick and generous toppings
Service was fast and the owner Darren was welcoming and engaging.
Worth a try if your in the area - we’ll be back”

“Great upscale “sports bar” with awesome food. Great menu and a great alternative over a sports bar in PCB. Great service. Same restaurant group that owns Fonville Press & Citizen in Alys Beach. Definitely coming back to watch baseball playoffs and World Series. I was also just told they have “Burgers & Brew” on Monday & Thursday nite for football 🏈 for $25.00 Very classy place”

“Went to Nigels for the first time - was passing it in Seaside and could not resist. I think this will be a weekly trip!!!!!! The dipped ice-cream bar was so GOOD!!!!”

“I stopped by to check out this quaint little cigar bar and enjoy a smoke. The indoor seating is limited, but the place is clean ano well-maintained. They also have an outdoo screened patio with comfortable seating. I was interested in trying the sweeter "Luke Bryan" cigar; however, they sold me the wrong cigar, which was quite disappointing. I ended up spending $ on a smoke that l didn't enjoy. When I mentioned to the staff that I had received the wrong cigar, she apologized but did not offer to rectify the situation. Additionally, there is inconsistency in their pricing: the website price is $32 per stick, while in the store, it's $35.”

“We had a wonderful experience at Big Chill. I took my granddaughter to get braids at Myamis henna for her big dance recital and we were not disappointed. My granddaughter was treated like a princess and they made her feel very special. Oh and by the way....the braids came out amazing!! Thank you so much!”

“We LOVE Bruno’s!! The pizza is SO good! Everything I’ve tried from Brunos is so fresh! Family owned restaurant who also supports other small businesses! I’ll recommend them every time!!!”

“Dunesider is amazing! Has a wide range of necessities and amazing food, perfect for pool or beach side!”

“This has been my go to Starbucks for ages. The best starbucks I have ever been too!!! Maddie was incredibly patient with me, and always extremely friendly, but she’s not the only one. All the baristas have been noting but kind, and the reason I keep on coming back!”

“If you’re cruising along 30A, Nectar is an ideal stop at The Big Chill—and one of those places that just makes sense for the area. Easy parking (even for golf carts), quick access, and a super smooth in-and-out setup.

The vibe is clean and modern with a simple, well-laid-out interior that doesn’t try too hard. It’s the kind of place where you can grab a great iced coffee, cool off for a few minutes, and be right back on your way.

Menu is straightforward but covers all the bases—solid coffee, breakfast sandwiches, plus acai bowls and smoothies if you’re looking for something lighter. Bonus: they also serve ice cream, which makes this just as good of a mid-day stop as it is in the morning.

If you’re on 30A and need a quick reset, Nectar is an easy choice. Definitely a local gem.”

“My name is Sheila and I’m from Westmoreland Tn . I stopped here with my Son last week and we enjoyed the drinks . I lost my pop socket there and Someone there sent me a brand new one in the mail . Wow , you just don’t find many people like that these days . I just want to say thank you to whoever it was . If I'm ever back in Rosemary I’m definitely stopping back by for that pineapple cider that i can’t get back here in Tennessee . I would definitely recommend this place . Sincerely Sheila Kepley ❤️”

“What do I say???? It was amazing! How have we missed this place in all the years we’ve here? “Chef’s kiss” still waiting to have it again on our next visit. Tabitha was soooo engaged with her guests. Bella was a wonderful server with great suggestions…. Yes it was even better the next day! 🤤”

“Had a birthday dinner for my wife here last weekend for a party of about 8 and the service was fantastic and the food delivered! Highly recommend!”

“Best Grouper in all of 30a Fried and Blackened and the sides were great we ate there 5 times in the week we were there Definitely worth the wait and the Staff is super Cool A must try”

“Loved the food, service and ambiance. One of 30A’s best dining experiences.”

“To start the restaurant’s location is located down a beautiful street in Rosemary beach. The food was fantastic! Fresh catch feature of snapper and grits, shrimp enfuego, blue crab Rangoon, crab cakes, and the chocolate chip cookie with a whipped espresso cream! The food was extremely fast & our waiter was even better. If you are in the area it’s a must try restaurant.”

“Awesome food and the best staff on 30a!”

“This is by far the best experience I have ever had in any restaurant in the panhandle of Florida. Exquisite dishes, decor and atmosphere. Customer service is outstanding and it is the benchmark in the hospitality industry. I love this place and it is my all time favorite.”

“BRING BACK THE SEAFOOD ENCHILADAS!!!!!!! We drove 5.5 hrs straight to #Hobag in hopes of having the enchiladas. We were very disappointed to find they were no longer on the menu. The food we did order was good but nothing compares to the enchiladas!!! Bring them BACK !!!!”

“Hands down the best place to eat!!! Incredible service, incredible food and the best atmosphere!!!! We will be back!!!”

“Jade and Onika did a wonderful job taking care of my friends and I. We felt very welcomed and our food came out very fast. I recommend this location to anyone in the area or stopping by.”

“We love being a part of this market showcasing Mermaids Magic Sea Moss”

“Great pub with fun atmosphere and delicious food. Seafood and burgers were yum! David was our server. He had good recommendations, great attitude and fast service. I had the redfish with a Bloody Mary. Great lunch to end our vacation! We will definitely return.”

“Absolutely my favorite bar ! Great atmosphere, staff , drinks and food . 5+++”

“With surprisingly few local craft breweries in the area, Idyll Hounds was a welcome oasis with a large and varied selection of high quality brews. My wife and I loved trying all the sour beers and a few others over two visits during our beach vacation! Fun side note - we were at a restaurant dining at the bar and talking to the bartender about Idyll Hounds and the owners happened to be sitting right next to us! Nice folks!”

“I highly recommend. Prema Organic Cafe staff share a lot of love with every order. Their coffee is fantastic. Their gluten free blueberry scones are excellent. I love that they have healthy choices and all gluten free. It’s hard to find gluten free cafes and, being celiac, their choices knocked my socks off. Their drip coffee is excellent and their cold brew is excellent. 😘”
