"Great shopping with lots of options. Gulf Stream has great outdoor and indoor seating. You can see their homemade vegetable garden right out the window. The food is delicious. Love the vegetable platter and the shrimp cocktail is very fresh and delicious.
Tommy Bahama has a good restaurant right next door with a clothes store. The outdoor seating area is cozy with a pond.
Bristol Farms is always busy - it’s wide aisles make shopping easy. The customer service is excellent
I’m looking forward to the stir fry custom ordered meals to reopen soon.
The signature Bristol farms cookie 🍪 is delicious.
The other shops are interesting with clothing and the delicious sprinkles cupcake store.
Parking can be tough - try parking on the library side of Bristol farms.
Incredible sunset in the Bristol Farm windows ( see photo)"
