In a pleasant Riverwalk setting, this former water-pumping station has been transformed into an enchanting restaurant and brewery whose menu harkens back to native Floridan staples made over for modern times. That means liberal use of datil peppers, sides like alligator beans and okra 'fries' (amazing!), mains like local pompano fish and desserts like guava pie.
With green lawns, walking paths, Jack & the Beanstalk statues, and goldfish ponds, this spot could involve most of the day. There's even free fish food for kids to use while the adults sip a beverage of choice outside.
