a lovie roadtrip.

alright my little friends,
i need some travel tips from you all.


lovie & i are roadtripping to savannah, georgia.
and i am on the hunt for all the loveliest
bed & breakfasts. bistros. bakeries. boutiques.

i am over the moon to go on this little getaway, as i have never been to savannah.
i have always heard about the rich history & the terribly charming downtown,
so i am literally counting down the minutes till we hop in the car.

being an indulgent foodie.
a perennial lover of all things antique.
and a skilled boutique shopper.
i figure savannah and i will get along beautifully.
it will be a match made in heaven.

and whats even better?
my lovie is quite a handsome little history buff.
he has a mind that is overflowing with historical knowledge.
i know that he will love submersing himself in
the culture. the roots. the depth that exudes from this great town.

it is the perfect roadtrip destination for two little lovies.

so, please, do tell.
what are your fave places in savannah?

  4. I loved Soho South Cafe! No table/chairs was alike in the whole place, and the walls are covered in cool local art! The food was really tasty with unique combinations of flavors - http://www.sohosouthcafe.com/ You can see their menu there.

    I love Savannah - my husband and I have been there 3 times since we started dating. We always try a new B&B when we go! The best time is just walking around all day and checking out the squares. That town is too cute!

  5. Just went!! Go to the Olde Pink House and have a late dinner in the downstairs basement! it is completely lit by candles (like your wedding), there is a huge fireplace and a piano player! So romantic and fun. Also, you should do a Ghost tour, it was fun! You will love it.

  6. Dinner at the Olde Pink House and brunch at B. Matthews! Savannah is fun for bar hopping too! Everything is pretty much in walking distance.

  7. I 2nd everyone's suggestions that you go to Olde Pink House! Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room is 100% worth the wait as well(it's a family style restaurant that usually has quite the line: http://www.mrswilkes.com/)!

    You definitely need to head over to One Fish Two Fish: (http://www.onefishstore.com/) - the owner also runs a darling antique shop right across the street (the hubs surprised me with an antique dresser from her for our wedding!), and the general area surrounding is full of additional antique shops that you must visit!

    You are going to have the BEST time!!! xx

  9. I'm SO glad you posted this K, because my sister has chosen Savannah as her bachelorette weekend destination. We'll be there in July or August -- I've been researching homes to rent. I can't wait to hear some of your favorite places to eat!

    (We went with Mom & Dad when we were small girls and when a little local restaurant called "Lady and Sons" was in its original building - haha! - which obviously has since blown up ... that was a favorite and so was Mrs. Wilkes Boarding House)

  10. Russ and I (and of course the dog) went last summer and here is the recap:
    http://russandtaylorbrown.blogspot.com/2011/08/weekend-update-savannah.html
    We stayed at the Foley House Inn and it was AMAZING! Within walking distance to everything. Definitely recommend it to all my friends wanting to stay at a B&B. Olde Pink House and Elizabeth's on 37th for dinners. Savannah Dan for a tour guide (an absolute must!). Leopold's for ice cream/sorbet. You don't have kids but my sorority sister owns the cutest children's store (Sara Jane Children's Boutique). I'll message you if I think of anything else!

    Here's wishing you and your lovie loads of fun and laughter!

  16. The Pink House for sure! The Chandeliers there are worth it alone but the food is amazing! We stayed at the 1895 Inn for our babymoon a few years ago and it was AMAZING! There was a Monet in the bathroom! I cannot say enough good things about the B&B and the food- YUM! Have an amazing time! Tybee Island is fun too!
