I love this place. Great food, clean, good service, great selections from the bar. It's right downtown in the middle of everything so it's a good place to take a break between galleries, shopping, museums etc. A great view if you sit outside or on their patio/ porch area.

Pinellas County’s oldest museum was founded in 1921 as the St. Petersburg Memorial Historical Society. Through the determination and effort of Mary Wheeler Eaton and others, the Society began collecting artifacts, natural history specimens, archival documents, photographs, papers, and “boxes of unknown treasures that were just dropped on our doorstep during the night.” - See more at: http://spmoh.com/about/#sthash.giyVa4Pq.dpuf
