Where to eat in downtown West Palm Beach

This is a list of restaurants and cafes in and near downtown West Palm Beach, Florida, with the address and the opening hours each one publishes on its own website. It is a list, not a ranking. We did not copy ratings from review sites, and we do not score anyone. We read every site on October 20, 2026. Places across the lagoon in the Town of Palm Beach are a different town and are not on this page.

How we chose

• Its own website. Every entry comes from the restaurant’s own site, or its owner group’s page, loaded on October 20, 2026. Directories were used only to find the address of that site.
• Downtown or Northwood. We kept places on the Clematis Street and Waterfront blocks, south downtown near CityPlace, and Northwood Road and North Dixie Highway.
• Hours as published. Where a site shows no hours, or two different sets, we say so instead of guessing.
• Their words, not ours. Opening years and descriptions in quotation marks are each restaurant’s own claim.

What we left off, and why

City Cellar’s site returned an error, and the Malakor and Simmer Down sites refused our requests, so we could not read their hours. Souvlaki Grill is on Belvedere Road, outside the downtown core. We will add places when their own sites can be read.
