Fond memories - born on the beach, lived 27 years in Miami. Brother still lives there and works in the Grove. Best spot for me is the park on the Bay there.

I grew up in Boca , just up the road . We often went to the Coconut Grove Playhouse.
I believe it closed though, about ten years ago. Always had a good time in the Grove,

One of the reasons the South Florida sun is so valuable! Brings out the best of all it shines on!

Just a bit of history about Coconut Grove. In the latter pat of the 50's,throughout the 60's and well into the 70's this was where all the hippies/homeless/more hippies called home. Guitars, Tie dye,mats,tents and soo much more. True story,T.

Love brunch at Coconut Grove. Spent a lot of my youth at coco walk. Glad they are remodeling that place. Also fat tuesdays. I live about 10 mins away. I recommend Montys, Peacock Gardens, Greenstreet, George's. The only Flanigans that stays open till 4am. Been living all my life. Since I was 1 now soon to be 35. Till this day still enjoy the Grove.

Another Miami born and raised guy here. Used to spend a lot of time in the Grove and enjoyed biking down to Matheson Hammock park every weekend. Still have family and friends all over south Florida and visit often.
