My wife is wanting to see Arcadia this weekend. Weŗe cruising from Sarasota.

Anyone have any suggestions of a great place for lunch or anything not to miss?

Thanks in advance.

Ride safe.

 

lol...... no.... just the ride itself...there are a few places to eat.... nothing to make ya start calling your buddies though.

 

I agree not much there. Lived in Bonita for 23 years. Like rlowride said enjoy the ride. Make a big loop. Stay out of the cities. Of course living in sarasota you should know that.LOL

 

If you're going to be there around lunch time, you might want to checkout Solomon's Castle.

Also, you might want to checkout the FL Crew section here on the forum.

 

How about Solomon's Castle? Boat in the Moat restaurant is worth the trip. The guy that owns the place is...Unique

Damn....I gotta type faster.

 

I 3rd the Boat in the Moat at Solomon's Castle, and be sure to take the tour.
I've only been to Arcadia once or twice - wife like the antiques, but they leave me cold. We found a little hole-in-the-wall restaurant on a cross street, with surprising good food at very reasonable prices. Don't recall the name, but it was just off the main drag in an antique-heavy area. Might have been Wheeler's Cafe on S. Monroe.

If Solomon's doesn't appeal, you might stop in Myakka City to see the Lippizan Stallions training http://hlipizzans.com/welcome.htm when they are open.

 

thanks guys!
