We know 10am is an early wedding, so we've listed below some our favorite restaurants and activities in the area for some post-reception fun!
We’ll use this map to show you the general layout of each area. Under each area name, we’ll color in that area’s recommended restaurants and St. Dominic will always be highlighted in yellow to show you where each restaurant is in relation to our venue.
As a reminder, Hotel Indigo is in downtown Panama City in walking distance to all of those restaurants :)
St. Andrews
Enzos Pizza & Grill
1322 Beck Ave, Panama City, FL 32401, USA

Though the dogwood trees out front have given Elena hives on... multiple occasions, we love dining indoors here!
FINNs Island Style Grub

The cutest little island shack with the most amazing tuna tacos you’ll ever have. You may even catch some live music!
Amavida Coffee Roasters
2997 W 10th Street, Panama City, Florida, 32401
If you wake up on December 29th craving the cold brew you had at our wedding, Amavida will have your fix. Not only is their coffee wonderful, it’s also locally roasted!
Hunt's Oyster Bar And Seafood
1150 Beck Avenue, Panama City, Florida, 32401
Hunt’s is a local favorite for oysters that has been in the area since the 70s. Good thing December is Oyster season ;)
Panama City Beach
Patches Pub
4723 Thomas Dr, Panama City Beach, FL 32408, USA

We have a long history of dates in sports pubs, and patches is the best of them all! We had dinner at Patches before Brayden proposed in December of 2022
Ps the buffalo burger is magical
Dee's Hangout
529 N Richard Jackson Blvd, Panama City Beach, Florida 32407
If you’re looking for oysters and staying beachside, Dee’s is the place to go!
Ps Get the tuna dip. Try not to eat it with a spoon.
St. Andrews State Park
4607 State Park Ln, Panama City, FL 32408, USA
(850) 708-6100
Though we wouldn’t advise swimming in the ocean in December, St. Andrews is the best place to walk the shore, pick up shells, or maybe even see some dolphins at the end of the jetties
Nick's Slice Of Brooklyn Pizzeria And Bar
13528 Front Beach Rd, Panama City Beach, FL 32407, USA
(850) 708-3177
No beach date is complete without a big New York style slice to go!
Dog Beach at Pier Park Panama City Beach
33753-000-000, Panama City Beach, FL 32413, USA
Elena loves cats, and Brayden loves dogs, so we compromised and have 2 cats. We still love beach dates where we can pet other peoples pups!

Wild Root Coffee and Tea
830 Florida Avenue, Lynn Haven, Florida, 32444
Wild root is a funky little coffee shop where we spent many hours studying, in club meetings, and drinking good espresso close to home. Fun fact: we went to wild root right before we bought our wedding rings at the jewlery shop around the corner

Adding to our love of sports pubs, the place is a great casual choice in downtown Panama City with amazing buffalo wings.

If you’re looking for seafood downtown, Bayou Joe’s will not disappoint

Key West Sandwich Shop
2414 FL-77, Lynn Haven, Florida, 32404
If you went here on a fall Friday in 2018, you’d find teenage Brayden and Elena eating the best Cuban sandwiches in their band shirts on the way to a high school football game
