If you’re looking for the best selection of New England oysters while having lunch in southernmost Key West, FL, it’s hard to beat Thirsty Mermaid. I’m always surprised at how good their selection is. They are as good as the ones we get back in New England. You can order from the chalkboard or peruse one of the best menus and specials in town. You are sure to be treated well by Ionela, Ava, Nicolas, Natia, and J.J.
After lunch, head across the street to Assortment, Inc. and step into the best men’s clothing store that has been a staple of Key West for half a century. Claude, Joe, and team will be sure you find what you’re looking for or something you had no idea you needed, but you did.
