13 American Table

A newcomer in the Boca food scene in summer 2013, this place has brought a piece of South Florida’s burgeoning foodie ethos to town. Owners Albert and Melanie Aletto opened the spot earlier this summer, and they brought in some heavy hitters from Delray Beach. Both chef Anthony Fiorini and general manager Oliver Tito have […]

Angelo Elia Pizza Bar Tapas

This restaurant in a former home is cozy and warm, and you can’t go wrong with pretty much any order. Expect richness and decadence from menu items including veal bone marrow served with pane casareccio, homemade bucatini with wild boar ragout or carbonara.

Arts Garage

Don’t judge a space by its cover – even when it’s the ground floor of a parking garage. The Delray Arts Garage is just that, and its unassuming exterior holds visual artists, musicians, performers, film presenters, and arts educators doing their best to entertain. Locals line up on the regular for the latest roster, which […]

The Black Rose Irish Pub

Boca Raton’s Black Rose Irish Pub is the type of bar that transports you back to the old Irish neighborhood of Boston. The interior of the bar has exposed brick walls adorned with beer memorabilia complete with fireplace to give that Northeastern feel. A large wooden bar fills up one side of the front bar […]

Blue Martini Boca Raton

This upscale drinking establishment located in “The Terrace” addition at the upscale Town Center Mall in Boca Raton isn’t just a place to see and be seen. It’s a place to show and show off, whether it’s your car, your wallet, or whatever other assets you have. There are more than 40 specialty martinis to […]

Boca Raton Museum of Art

The museum continues to attract people of all ages with its permanent and traveling exhibitions, children’s educational gallery, and expanded sculpture garden.

Bookwise

Whether you’re on the hunt for Madame Bovary, a Maurice Sendak coffee-table book, or the latest Twilight saga page-turner, Bookwise probably has a gently used copy tucked where you can actually find it – no small feat, considering there are more than 75,000 volumes in stock. If the store’s plain exterior and humming fluorescent lights […]

Boys Farmers Market

If you can navigate the crush inside these tiny aisles – where cans of Italian tomatoes and olive oil from Sicily and red wine vinegar are balanced acrobat-style, ascending to the ceiling – and if you can get past the cheese counter – with its hundreds of pounds of brie and cheddar and asiago and […]

Bridge Hotel

When you’re penning your postcards poolside at this hotel, it’s certainly not the dreary eggs Benedict you’ll be waxing poetic about. The cuisine at this waterside bar/restaurant is of the standard mid-’90s hotel issue: largely forgettable. Service can, at times, be painfully awkward. Best to avoid this altogether and make a beeline for the bar. […]

Bull Bar

At the beginning (or end, depending on how you look at it) of Delray Beach’s downtown strip on Atlantic Avenue is the Bull Bar. Named after the bullhead dolphin, the tiny but extremely lively bar is one of the more laid-back spots on “the Ave.” There are no red velvet ropes, jeans are acceptable, and […]
