I will be continually adding more to this page! I thought I would share
with ya'll my guide to Savannah which includes both touristy and more
local things. I have marked the things I know are dog friendly with a
DF.
Places to Eat:
Marche De Macarons
Many
of you who know me, know that macarons are my favorite sweet treat.
These are the best I have ever had! They are always fresh and have
seasonal flavors as well.
Zunzi's
This is a South African themed take-out restaurant. I love it for their unique tea and excellent gluten-free options!
-DF
The Cotton Exchange
One of my favorite places to eat downtown, located on River Street.
The Crab Shack
My family has been coming here for years. Our favorite thing to order is the Captain's platter.
-DF
A Chocolate Dream
I am a huge fan of chocolate! I love this little store located on Broughton Street.
The Sugar Shack | Tybee
I
cannot say enough good things about this place! Although it is small,
the food and ice cream are phenomenal. My favorite is their breakfasts
and milkshakes.
-DF
River Street Sweets
This
one is a little touristy, but I stop in every time I'm downtown. My
favorite thing to get is their Pralines and they usually have samples!
Tybean Art and Coffee | Tybee
I
have tried a lot of local coffee shops and this is by far the best.
They feature local art and have a live-in cat named Bean. I highly
recommend trying their scones and their Dirty Chai Latte.
Places to Shop:
The Paris Market
This
is the cutest little store ever. They have products from all over the
world, gorgeous seasonal decor, beautiful fashion books, and a little
bakery as well.
Savannah City Market
The best part of the City Market is all of the local art galleries.
-DF
Alex Raskin Antiques
One
of my favorite Antique stores downtown (although there are many more).
They have floors and floors of stunning antique furniture and decor.
Brighter Day Food Market
One
of my favorite 'hippie' stores. They have a wide variety of gluten free
foods and fresh made smoothies, as well as a lot of unique foods,
beauty products, and vitamins.
Woof Gang Bakery | Pet Supply Store
What
a cute store! They have a variety of things for your pup, including
baked goods, collars (with bowties), and many other accessories.
-DF
Things to Do:
Telfair Art Museum
For
Valentine's Day, my boyfriend buys us yearly passes to this art museum.
It is a three part museum: The Telfair, The Jepson, and The
Owens-Thomas House. My favorite is the Telfair, which features classic
paintings.
Bonaventure Cemetery
This is known as one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the world.
-DF
Old Sheldon Church Ruins
Even
though it is a little out of the way, this is one of my favorite places
to visit! It is so gorgeous, it is frequently used for engagement
photos and weddings.
-DF
Cathedral of St. John the Baptist
This is such a gorgeous building. Whether you enjoy church or not, it is worth stopping by to see the architecture
Forsyth Park
One
of my favorite class breaks is to go to Forsyth during the week. Most
people recognize it for the fountain, but there are tons of other things
around it. The Mansion hotel and Brighter Day that I have linked are
right off of Forsyth, as well as a cute little garden and Starbucks
coffee shop.
-DF
Fort Pulaski
Located
near Tybee, Fort Pulaski is a beautiful national monument. As well as
being able to go inside the fort, there are some walking trails along
the water.
-DF
Places to Stay:
The Mansion
I cannot express how much I love the interior of this hotel. It is gorgeous and located right next to Forsyth Park.
The Bohemian
They have an amazing rooftop bar and are located on Bay Street
Beachview Bed and Breakfast | Tybee
The cutest B&B on Tybee! I toured it during the Tybee tour of homes and fell in love.
This is such a great post! I have never been to Savannah- but I am dying to go :)
