ARCHER FAVORITES —St. Pete: EDGE District
What'S UP WITH THE EDGE DISTRICTThe EDGE District has mastered the art of staying cool while everyone else catches on. Equal parts neighborhood hangout and urban destination, it's home to independent restaurants, craft cocktails, cool retail and some of St. Pete's most interesting businesses. New investment continues to fuel the district's growth but its character has always come from the local operators who give people a reason to linger.
From tapas to fresh-baked desserts, Copa, The Sourdough Co., Bodega and Shiso Crispy prove why local always tastes better.
❋ INDEPENDENT RESTAURANTSWhether it's happy hour or a nightcap, Bar Mezzo, Green Bench Brewing and Intermezzo serve up a mean drink. Cheers.
❋ CRAFT COCKTAILSNo big box shopping here. Discover Ashe Couture Boutique and Matter of Fact or opt for sustainable living essentials at Sans Market.
❋ COOL RETAILFrom The Sun on the EDGE sculpture to Tropicana Field, the district is home to landmarks that are unmistakably St. Pete.
