One of the most popular questions we get is where to eat and drink when visiting 30A. It’s no secret there are tons of great places to indulge along State Route 30A. Whether you’re seeking the best happy hour because you’re like me and like to be in bed by 9 or you like the happy hour pricing, we’ve got you covered! Below I’m sharing 5 of our favorite places to enjoy happy hour along 30a!
Great Southern Cafe

Nestled into Seaside’s town center you’ll find Great Southern Cafe. Their mixed drinks will place you right at the beach after one sip (we love their habanero margarita and mojito)! From 3pm-5pm daily you can get half off all liquor and wines by the glass. The best part is if you’re looking to walk around while you’re waiting for your reservation, you can get your drink to-go. Speaking of reservations, this is one of the few spots that offer reservations along 30A!
Amigos

My personal favorite and right up the road from our home is Amigos. Lucky for us their Margarita is not the only thing to boast about. We’re big fans of their bowls and tacos as well!
From 3pm – 6pm, 7 days per week you can find the following happy hour specials:
$7 amigos 30A house margarita, $8 frozen drinks , $1 off all bottled/canned beer, $2 off all wines by the glass
Amigos just added a new food menu to happy hour:
$5 white queso, $10 cheese quesadillas, $10 enchiladas, $5 off chicken, ground beef, & veggie rice bowls
The Wine Bar

Did someone say Happy Hour at lunch? Daily from 11am – 6pm, enjoy a 12 oz carafe of wine for the price of a large glass. The Wine Bar located in Watercolor is a quaint spot with an award winning wine list.

I’m not sure what’s better, their view of the Gulf or their happy hour menu. Enjoy $5 wine selections, $5 house-made margaritas and $2 PBR every day from 3-6pm. If you’re lucky, you can grab a seat near the window on the second floor and enjoy one of the few beachside restaurant views along 30A. If you’re hoping to grab a sunset, grab your drink to-go and walk right across the street to the public beach access point.
Cafe 30a

A local known favorite, Cafe 30a, has Tini night every Tuesday and Thursday in the bar. Grab one of their popular Martinis for just $6. If you find yourself looking for a small bite while you enjoy your Tiini, we recommend the Beef Carpaccio! Unfiltered opinion: this spot tends to bring in an older crowd.
Cheers, friends! I hope you enjoy your stay and If you have yet to book your vacation, you can find all of our rental listings at https://stayon30a.com/search-results/ !
