Apalachicola Restaurants

Dine All Day

We’re up early, with scratch-made biscuits in the oven and white sausage gravy bubbling on the stove. Whether you’re dropping by for breakfast, stopping in for lunch or dinner, or settling in for a Happy Hour cocktail or two, you can’t help but love our Apalachicola restaurant menus. Whenever possible, each one is designed to showcase what’s local, all-natural, organic, and sustainable.
