Food scene
A nice little rustic setting and live music. Wednesday night bluegrass. Only a little bike ride from our place. Be patient with the servers there, they get busy and the kitchen is small, but worth it. The food is pretty good too.

2.5 miles to the East is where the Tampa Bay Rays have their Spring training. We typically ride our bikes there to avoid traffic and parking fees. Don't buy the reserved seats, get general admission and cruise around. Hooter's bar is in center field.
