Dining And Drinking

add to Travel Bag (NEW)  

Jupiter is an eclectic mix of cultures and traditions, so it is little wonder that its restaurants follow this same pattern. From down-home Florida cuisine to funky jazz cafes, you are sure to find something to suit your palate.

Catch the Surf

Seafood is the top choice in this beach town, and with good reason! The catch of the day is often only a few steps away, so make sure to take advantage of the opportunity for some great fish while you are here. The love of shrimp will surely lead you to The Crab House, part of the Miami-based chain that devotes entire pages of its menu to shrimp and crab, while Schooners Restaurant makes seafood dining fun for kids and parents alike. For a side of kitsch with your meal, check out Little Moir's Food Shack, an unpretentious hole-in-the-wall serving up one of the most interesting menus in town. Those who enjoy dining with a view will love Jetty's, a dock-side restaurant serving delicious gourmet dishes with a panoramic view of Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse.

…And the Turf

Nothing says Southern cooking like an old-fashioned BBQ, and Jupiter is in no way lacking in the down-home cuisine department. There's no fooling around with food at Uncle Mick's Bar & Grill, where locals and visitors alike crowd in to stuff their guts with pub-style fare. Local treats and spicy appetizers rule at Blondie's Bar & Grill, while Jupiter's original R.J. Gator's Florida Sea Grill & Bar continues to serve up some of the best drinks around. If you long for a taste of something out of the ordinary, try your luck with local specialties like the Dolphin Sandwich at the popular Dune Dog Cafe.

Alternative Tastes

For those who seek something more than steaks, grills and seafood, there are several other options that may tickle your taste buds. Too Bizaare Cafe & Wine Bar is a funky hang-out with menu items such as salads, wraps, and a wide selection of wine, all served alongside live entertainment. If you are in the mood for some jazz with your meal, theBlue Note Cafe is the place to be. For those longing for Mother England, Queen Mary British Pub can provide you with hearty fare and draughts aplenty. When the craving for pizza or pasta strikes, locally-owned Italian eatery Nick's Tomato Pie or Tequesta's Baldino's are on-hand to serve large portions of traditional favorites. All hope is not lost for vegetarians in this seafood-loving town, as you can indulge in the Corner Café's special Portobello Mushroom Sandwich and garden variety greens and salads.

Rise and Shine

In search of some breakfast to start your day? Nothing beats the bagels at Einstein Brothers, which also serves pastries and coffee for those in a rush. Oven-fresh is the status quo at Mr. Bread, and when in the Juno area, stop by Hurricane Cafe, which serves some of the region's best breakfast (as well as light lunch and dinner).
