Flamingo Road Nursery (awesome BBQ)

Hi Gang,

Looking for something to do with the family and grab a bite to eat at the same time? Well come out and visit the One Last Cast Barbeque at Flamingo Road Nursery in Davie. The food in awesome and the plants are beautiful, plus there are some things to do with kids.
First off the BBQ is awesome! Me and the family love coming here for lunch on the weekends. We usually hit the food up first before we go explore, plus the farmers market has deserts! My personal favor it is the idahog(baked potato with sheared pork) and my wife likes the ribs.
**BBQ is only open during the weekends**
Sooooo Good!
So what to do after you eat? Check out some of the cool things in the nursery.
  • Paint-A-Pot or a coconut if you'd like for $4. (the pot comes with a plant as well)
  • Visit Grandma's Garden (great photo opportunities)
  • Farmers market (all sorts of goodies in here)
  • Visit the extra large chair in the butterfly gardening section 
  • Check out the all colorful plants
** If you paint a pot do it before you go exploring around the nursery to allow time to dry. Also this activity is only available during the weekends**

 The farmers market has some really great deals on produce, we usually get some fresh fruits and vegetables when we're there. Also there is a bakery/juice bar in the back. You can get smoothies, cookies, muffins,  and juices just to name a few things.


 All in all we enjoy going here as a family to grab some lunch and have a little fun. There is a lot to look at between the plants, fountains, and sculptures. We can spend any where from 1.5 - 2.5 hours here. If you plan on visiting, here is the link for the address. http://www.flamingoroadnursery.com/html/locationPage/location.htm

  • Price: This can be as cheap or as expensive as you want it to be. We spent $30 for lunch, $4 to paint a coconut, and $9 in the farmers market. But you could go just to paint and grab a smoothie or a treat and spend less than $20.
  • Fun Factor: Not a high octane outing but there is some fun stuff to do and some good food to eat. Also they do seasonal activities through out the year.
  • Cleanliness: It is pretty clean for a nursery, well kept. 
  • Other places to visit in the area: Flamingo Gardens, Tree Tops Park, Volunteer Park, and the Sawgrass Mills Mall.
 Thanks for visiting and please feel free to leave a comment.
