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.
