Golf carts explore Main Street
From golf carts on Main Street to houses on the river, Downtown New Port Richey combines charming residential spaces with a strong, distinctive commercial presence. “I’ve lived here for 22 years, and I love what is happening,” says Judi Pobst, a Realtor with Keller Williams. “I’ve seen this place go from a sleepy little town to a vibrant, happening, growing city.” Housing options with hard-to-beat prices include everything from cozy bungalows to slices of waterfront paradise. “Compared to other areas, it’s very affordable,” says Pobst. “A lot of people are moving here because they want to be part of downtown and they love the culture.”

The Social has a rooftop bar
The highly walkable Main Street is also a golf cart wonderland for residents looking to grab a bite, kick back with a drink or pick up their groceries. “It’s very much a golf cart community,” says Pobst. The Social might be the most popular restaurant in the neighborhood thanks to its rooftop bar and even more unique open-air, ground-level bar that serves patrons on the sidewalk. “You can just be walking down the street, stop and pull up a barstool,” says Pobst. The Hacienda comes in close second as far as popularity is concerned. “It’s kind of a draw because it has so much charm and historical value,” says Pobst. The hotel, complete with a restaurant and bar, dates back to the 1920s and recently reopened in 2022 after a multiyear renovation. For other highly rated dining options, Melt’d has gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches that pair perfectly with a few scoops from Ottaway’s Ice Cream Parlor on warm afternoons. Southgate Shopping Center has plenty of additional retail to explore, including a Publix to satisfy local grocery needs.
