30A needs a simple short order cook type cafe that opens early and stays open late.No "speciality" foods,just plain cookin'.There is a cafe in Mexico Beach named Sharon's cafe-a local joint that has simple ,but great food.Nothing fancy,but stays crowded year round.If the food and service are good and prices reasonable people would stand in line.

Hope that whoever is looking at "the silver diner" and placing it on 30A takes shape and Joho like your idea of location.Also am going to try Emma's,someone suggested. Still dreamin' of a SIMPLE 30A CAFE.

SE corner of 30A and 393 and if they would lease me the site.

Ask at the grayton grocery across the street or ask any realtor to look up propert records for you.Post a sign on the corner with phone # and ask for details.Hope all or any of this help..Let me know

I like Don Pedro's and Steamboat -- tasty seafood and some Korean bbq. Non-touristy. Great food. Dished out with a minimum of fuss!

I had two simple meals at Great Southern in the past week that I really liked. Even though it's not on the menu, I got two eggs over easy, multi-grain bread, and fruit for breakfast. One evening I ordered a burger and yummy collards (didn't eat the bun because I am trying to cut down on carbs).
Seacrest Sundries, we'll try you soon.

I have not personally tried Seacrest Sundries, but I refer a lot of people there for breakfast and lunch this time of the year, since I don't really know what is open on this end of the A. I will have to give it a try!!!

If you ever find yourself in FWB around meal time, I just tried Stweby's on Racetrack Road about a block east of Beal Pkwy. The fish is fresh off the docks in Destin, the oysters and shrimp are from Apalach, and $7 gets you a sandwich or two tacos and fries. Been a long time since the two of us have gotten out of a fish place for less than $20 including drinks.

I think what lets them hit their price point is that land costs/rent along Racetrack are pretty reasonable compared to a lot of places.

LOL Beachmouse - we'd already planned to get to Stewby's per another locals recommendation.
Came so close to finally meeting you in person, we just got back from a late Stewby's lunch. Folks - Stewby's really is all that and a bag of chips (a heap of spiced french fries, actually). Fresh fish, beautiful shrimp and perfectly cooked oysters (we both had the fried dinner platter). At $12 a plate, one of the best culinary deals we've seen.
