What’s to eat in St. Johns? I’m glad you asked! Below is a list of restaurants that I personally recommend (both in St. Johns and in the surrounding areas). I’ve tried to focus on locally-owned businesses, but some are chains. Food in St. Johns certainly isn’t limited to this list, though! Do you have a favorite place that isn’t on the list, but should be? Send me a message via the “contact me” link and I’ll add it!
