Jaenicke's Root Beer Stand
Hot dog restaurant
👍👍 Well I was misinformed by a Ryan Clayton bc there are no fried green tomatoes here but all the food is beyond good definitely worth the trip in my opinion. This place ALWAYS reminds me of my grandmothers and always will. I will be posting photos as soon as the deliciousness is all done.

👍👍 Faboulous atmosphere. Friendly staff. Great place to meet your friends and try some new beverages. The wine slushies alone are worth the trip and while your there try a flight of wine.

Rigo's Place
Restaurant
👍👍 Atmosphere is perfect for enjoying a 3-4 course meal. Start with appetizers and drinks - you MUST try the French Martini. The crab cakes with Champaign sauce is a customer favorite. You must try the Rigos special, pecan crusted grouper or bacon wrapped shrimp dinner. Plus the bartender is super cute...
