The Lobby Bar at the Ritz Amelia Island Ritz Carlton
This is a dumb question, but do you like a fancy drink in an elegant setting with a fabulous ocean view?
I like to stop for a special cocktail at the Ritz Lobby Bar in Amelia Island, Florida. It's elegant and timeless and has stunning views of the ocean. Just pull up and tell the valet you are going to the Lobby Bar and you can leave your car there for a short time.
The drinks aren't cheap, but would you expect them to be at the Ritz?
They offer a new creative drink menu each season and the classic standbys. Sometimes, they have live music, but either way, it's almost always busy and has an upbeat vibe. The atmosphere is upscale but also welcoming and comfortable.
The Lobby Bar stopped serving cocktail snacks in the bar for a while, but they are back, and I think it's a nice touch.
Who doesn't like a 'free' snack with a cocktail or a glass of wine?
