Honorable mentions:

Some places didn’t make our list but still deserve an honorable mention. Woodwright Brewing Company in Dunedin has completely transformed its place to a winter wonderland.

    Back and better than ever is Miracle at Mezzo at Intermezzo Coffee and Cocktails in St. Pete AND at Strandhill Public in Tampa.
