    Saturday morning in the sprint and they were still busy setting up for a music festival and I have…read moreSouthwest Florida to visit, so I wasn't able to sit around. This lovely park has a ton of parking, the lovely Blackwater River Swing Bridge is here and the Santa Rosa County Veteran's Memorial is adjacent. I'd guess these Level 1 chargers are available for those who might want to plug in their EV. [Review 927 of 2024 - 1806 in Florida - 21956 overall]

    This is just like Bands on the Beach, without the hassle of traffic and the Casino Beach parking…read morelot dysfunction. I mean, seriously, WTF is up with that clown car? (I've had this draft pending for about a half a year, so I'll admit that Bands on the Blackwater isn't "just like" Bands on the Beach...but close enough for gratuitous blather from a random moron on the intarwebs.) Great bands, a surprisingly good sound system, large crowds of well-behaved folks, fun, frivolity, food, and an opportunity to drink in public in the heart of Puritanical Milton. If you pass up the chance to do that, yer doin' it wrong. Or you grew up somewhere Baptist fascists didn't rue the having of fun. Whichever. Thirty years ago, Miltonites would have rolled their collective eyeballs at the thought of such a blatant display of comaraderie and revelry. Bring your own chair or blanket, relax, and listen. You'll have fun and meet people. If you get bored, you can amble over to the Vietnam War memorial and check that out. You can stroll to Doc's Courtyard Cafe and eat something delicious and have a drink or eight. Or you could hop onto the Riverwalk, pass under the river bridge, and grab a bite at the froyo place or at Boomerang's pizza. Milton isn't the ghost town after dark that it used to be. When the weather warms up, plot a course for Bands on Blackwater. There's no good reason to not support local activities and businesses.

    First of all, we went to hear Almost Famous - three talented young men - The SkyBar offers a great…read morebrunch with some great prices. My husband had a Bennie and I had their burger...(I have severe allergies and had the burger with no issues)... we both enjoyed the food and drinks (mimosas and bloody Mary's). Only negative was the heat at 95 degrees but there were fans and a nice breeze most of the time. We have been there before as we are locals but this was our first brunch... we will return!

    When we planned our trip to Destin, in our research this was one of the restaurants that caught our…read moreeye. It looked like a nice, relaxing, elevated restaurant we could relax at after a day of excursions. It really wasn't that. After spending most of our days eating at the themed surf restaurants that decorate with shark heads, surfboards and tiki lights. We had hoped this would be a change, it's really not. It may not be grossly decorated with those tiki-style items, but most certainly is that same type of restaurant. It's not elegant, it's not elevated and its most certainly, not relaxing. The food was very good, the service from our waitress, Savannah was mediocre. She seemed bored or maybe having a bad night and was doing her best to cover it with a smile. We ate up at the skybar which does have a very lovely view. The high-top table and chairs are uncomfortable. My wife and I had to come off the chairs to stand next to the table for a few moments because the chairs were so uncomfortable. As far as their food goes, I had the shrimp tacos. They were made with very fresh tasting ingredients and the shrimp wasdelicious. At least the 2 pieces per taco they came with. Most of what was in the taco was just the filling. $22.00 for two tacos I expected more shrimp. My wife's Grouper Moreno and the conch fritter appetizer were both delicious. Dessert was the salted caramel cheesecake which was good, but ridiculously sweet (as you'd expect it to be) Overall, the food was very good though the tacos could have included more shrimp then they did. The service was just okay. The restaurant itself is nice, but not the quiet relaxing place it looks like on their website. It's just another surf themed style restaurant, without all the gaudy decorations.

    I love Top of the Bay! Seriously, who IS this horse-faced Avery chick? Girl must be the Yelp…read moreequivalent of a professional hater--she drops a 1-star review faster than a drunk uncle drops his beer at a wedding. Probably mad because the barstools don't come with a personal therapist to listen to her complaints. Meanwhile, the rest of us are living our best lives: the atmosphere is straight-up electric (in a good way, not like that one time the jukebox shorted out), the booze flows like it's happy hour in heaven--wine? Nah, we're talking bottomless vibes and top-shelf pours that make you forget what day it is. The staff? Absolute legends. They remember your drink before you remember your own name, and they do it with smiles bigger than the Mobile Bay itself. And the events? Non-stop party central: * Wednesdays: Line dancing so fun you'll forget you have two left feet (spoiler: everyone does after shot #3). * Fridays: Live bands that slap harder than your ex's bad decisions. * Saturdays & Sundays: Karaoke where your off-key rendition of "Sweet Caroline" somehow becomes the highlight of the night--bonus points if you dedicate it to Avery for the motivation. Plus, outdoor music perfect for pretending you're in a music video while actually just spilling your drink on your shoes. It's the ultimate spot to grab a cold one, mingle like you're auditioning for a rom-com, and meet new people who are actually fun (unlike certain reviewers). The regulars? Pure gold. They'll hook you up with every hidden gem, event, and questionable life choice happening in Baldwin County faster than you can say "another round." Bottom line: If you're looking for a good time in Daphne, Top of the Bay is where it's at. Avery can stay home reviewing her own fridge if she wants--more barstools for the rest of us party animals!

    Listen. This is probably the best hometown bar I have ever been to…read more I am a 42 year old WOMAN who enjoys coming to this bar. I come with my husband, so I haven't ever had the experiences as OTHER women (please see the lot lizard that left the one star review on 3/13) of being put in my place and told no when attempting to seduce a SIGNIFICANTLY older man (ohmygod its like I was there...) I also don't tend to laugh like a loud congested hyena, so maybe that doesn't hinder my view on the joint. The bartenders Morgan, Christina, John and Emma are all amazing. They all pay attention to you, regardless of whats between your legs. Please give this bar a chance. Just dont sit where we sit, or play shitty music please. Thank you!
