FOODIES REJOICE!
Savannah has a thriving food scene and it's only expanding. Whatever kind of food you are looking for, Savannah has it. From traditional southern cuisine, to trendy hipster dishes, to fresh seafood, there is a restaurant for every person. Most restaurants are family friendly, offer outdoor seating, and are fairly priced. There are a few high end restaurants as well, or those romantic getaways. Looking for a smooth cocktail? Look no further, as Savannah offers a variety of cocktail bars scattered throughout the city.
ALSO - The historic district of Savannah has an open-container policy. This is awesome if you plan to walk around and grab drinks here and there. Just ask for your alcoholic beverage to-go, and you can take it with you!
