🎄 Looking for a free meal on the First Coast?

If you’re cruising down Heckscher Drive this holiday season, here’s a festive stop worth making. Sandollar Restaurant is giving away $250 in gift cards on Christmas Eve, and entering couldn’t be easier.

Just stop by, drop your name in the contest box near the bar… and that’s it. No purchase required. Yep, we were surprised too.

With waterfront views, holiday décor, and their Christmas Eve seafood buffet happening the same day, this feels like one of those locals-know-best moments we love to share.

🎁 Winner drawn Christmas Eve, don’t miss it.
