There’s only one real way to enjoy a burger – and that’s fresh while overlooking the gorgeous beach scenery. You can find that luxury at Original Burger Bros., a place that offers fresh and hand-crafted foods. That’s right. This is one “burger joint” that serves their food the good-old fashioned way. It’s clean, the food is fresh, and the people are friendly. Click Here for InTown’s Listing of Original Burger Bros.
This is a restaurant with history. Keeping their family’s tradition alive and with the help of their father, Nick and Peter (the “bros”) began the Burger Bros. to carry on their belief that you can give your customers a great meal with fresh ingredients at inexpensive prices. From homemade chili to their own brand of old-time fountain drinks, this place will give your palate a refreshing change to the “burger and fries” concept.

The menu has something for everyone. The onion rings are hand-cut and hand-made. Turkey burgers, chicken burgers, and various styles of hot dogs will have you wanting seconds. But leave room for dessert. Their delightful root beer floats, shakes, and ice cream sundaes will be calling your name. Eating fresh food while spending a day at the beach – I can’t think of a better way to spend my time. Click Here for Original Burger Bros’ Facebook.
This café is going to be my new home! Le Petit Prince had me when they began to make everything I ordered right before my very eyes. It’s all fresh and delicious. When you’re on Hollywood Beach, the perfect balance to the hot sun is a cold fruit smoothie (my favorite is the St. Tropez made with mango, banana, pineapple, and oranges) or shake filled with fresh fruits and ice cream. Made to order, of course. Click Here for InTown’s Listing of Le Petit Prince Café.
When you go to this café, you must order one of their sandwiches. The generous-portioned sandwich is created with baguettes, vegetables, and your choice of meat and cheese. After the wonderfully personable staff made my chicken salad sandwich, I couldn’t get enough of it. Each bite was filled with wholesome goodness, which is such a rare find on Hollywood Beach. Le Petit Café is truly a must-visit treasure. Click Here for InTown’s Gallery of Le Petit Prince Café.
Of course, I saved the best for last. The talented people at the café can make the most incredible crepes. Whether savory crepes (made with meats and veggies) or dessert crepes, these homemade treats go perfect with their freshly brewed espresso and coffees. It would be a sin not to order the Kalahari, a crepe made with Nutella and fresh strawberries (I’m drooling as we speak). After just one visit to Le Petit Prince Café, you’ll find yourself continuously coming back for more! Click Here for Le Petit Prince Café’s website.
If I could spend a day of fun on the beach, it would definitely have to include jet skiing, soaking up some sun, and then some more jet skiing. There is nothing like it! And no one does it like Hollywood Jet Ski. Located directly behind the Marriot, the staff is efficient, friendly, and helpful. That is, before they set you free for some fun.

Ride the waves at top speeds in their state-of-the-art Yamaha watercrafts and feel the rush. If you’ve never done it, it’s worth doing. You control your own pace and route at your comfort.

Hollywood Jet Ski follows safety guidelines to the tee. Click Here for InTown’s Gallery of Hollywood Jet Ski.

Stout provides an amazing menu of foods. Classic favorites like a 14oz Sterling Silver New York Strip Steak and Grilled Chicken Wings are always a hit. I would highly recommend their Seared Tuna Oriental Salad (perfection!) and Steak Flatbread followed by some dessert. Chocolate Molten Cake, anyone? If you catch the Irish spirit, Stout does not disappoint. They keep the tradition alive here with fish & chips, bangers and mash, and shepherd’s pie. Click Here for Stout’s Facebook Page.
I have just found my favorite breakfast spot ever! The only place to eat the most important meal of the day is at the Old Fort Lauderdale Breakfast House. Located right next to The Museum of Discovery and Science & the AutoNation Building, you have the option to either drive your car or dock your boat. The Old Fort Lauderdale Breakfast House loves the life of the sea! Even their logo consists of a ship’s anchor. Click Here for InTown's Listing of Old Fort Lauderdale Breakfast House.
Inside, the décor is simple and inviting, yet there are many hidden treasures, such as books by Hemmingway and classic photos of boats and fishing in Fort Lauderdale. On the menu are even more treasures.

The orange juice is freshly squeezed. The food is made with the best and local ingredients. Even the flowers on your table are fresh-cut.
