11. A super way to
spend Sunday
morning! Have a
tasty breakfast at
one of the many
restaurant choices
in the village. Then
visit the market
before heading to
the beach.

of the Davidson's Pharmacy at the 5100

includes many vendors such as fresh
fruits and veggies by Yum Yum Tree,
Fouta Spa towels, hand made pottery,

16. After walking the beach come into the
Village and check out some of the
restaurants, bars and boutiques. One of
my favorites is The Hub Baja Grill
located at the stop sign. Pan-Latin fare &
margaritas are the draws at this festive,
tropical-themed eatery with live music.

18. Another favorite is The Cottage. The staff are
friendly, you feel like they could be family. They
have a couple of nice sitting options, I.e. front
porch to watch the people walking by, inside if
it's too hot and the inner courtyard which has
some great island music. The food is above
average with some Asian and other influences.
Great spot to meet folks.

schedule is the following:
1) Breakfast sandwich from Alex's
Village Cafe booth at the Siesta Key
Farmers Market.

Adams and great food at Gilligan’s Island Bar.
