Finn’s Beachside Pub and The Golden Lion Cafe

Flagler Beach has some fine places to wine and dine near the beach. I have visited two: Finn’s Beachside Pub and The Golden Lion Café. They are both separated from the beach by A1A and both attract a young beach-oriented crowd – but they let me in anyway. They both offered live music when I was there. I ordered fish and chips at both. The fish and chips at Finn’s… ok. At Golden Lion… superb.

I went to Finn’s for dinner, solo, so it was a solitary experience, just me and my food, in the sea breeze, listening to some pretty decent folk music. I went to The Golden Lion with Jett’s brother and sister, so the I didn’t have to talk to myself. The music there was provided by “Billy Bob – A 10-string duo”, the 10 strings being 6 on a guitar and 4 on a fiddle. They are very talented musicians and we enjoyed them very much. We also enjoyed the kids cavorting in the sand in front of the stage.

Either one is fine for music and drinks. But go to The Golden Café for food.
