If you’re visiting 30A and looking for a refreshing, alcohol-free drink to enjoy, you’re in luck! 30A is home to a variety of spots offering creative and delicious mocktails. Whether you’re on the hunt for the perfect post-beach sip or a cozy place to unwind as the sun sets, here are five places along 30A that should be on your list. 

1. Fish Out of Water, WaterColor

Fish Out of Water in WaterColor is a rare Gulf-front dining spot on 30A, perfect for unwinding by the coast. Its mocktail menu offers both light, citrusy refreshers and complex flavors. We sampled the “For the Health of It,” a zesty blend of pineapple, turmeric, and ginger—an ideal post-beach pick-me-up. The “Georgia Peach” combined fresh peach, lemon, basil, and ginger for a fruity, invigorating sip. Whether you’re winding down or soaking in the view, this spot delivers a refreshing escape.

2. Old Florida Fish House, Seagrove Beach 

Old Florida Fish House is a laid-back coastal spot ideal for enjoying a refreshing mocktail. Its inviting atmosphere and versatile menu offer vibrant, alcohol-free options alongside great food. Many cocktails can be made without alcohol, expanding choices for non-drinkers. We recommend the Strawberry Mojito, crafted with housemade strawberry syrup, fresh lime, and mint—an ideal post-beach refresher. Grab a seat outside, take in the views, and savor a signature mocktail for a relaxed, breezy experience.

3. Gallion’s, Rosemary Beach

Gallion’s, in the heart of Rosemary Beach, is a cozy spot known for great food, refreshing cocktails, and a welcoming ambiance. Visit during Après Beach Happy Hour (3–5 p.m. daily) to unwind post-beach or enjoy a pre-dinner drink. Try their alcohol-free Piña Colada or the signature “Electric Slide” mocktail. With its relaxed vibe and flavorful drinks, Gallion’s is a must-visit on 30A.

4. Havana, Rosemary Beach 

A short walk from Gallion’s, Havana in Rosemary Beach is the perfect spot to enjoy a mocktail while watching the sunset. Its laid-back yet sophisticated atmosphere makes it an ideal evening destination. Havana serves zero-proof alcohol, delivering complex flavors without the booze. We tried the Nosey Rosey, a spritz topped with alcohol-free wine—light, refreshing, and full of character. Their impressive mocktail menu features everything from fruit-infused blends to inventive creations you won’t find elsewhere. For a flavorful, alcohol-free drink in a stunning setting, Havana is a must-visit.

5. NEAT, Alys Beach

NEAT in Alys Beach is a stylish spot offering some of the best mocktails on 30A. Alongside its refreshing alcohol-free drinks, NEAT hosts live music every Tuesday at 5 PM during the Wine & Song event, blending great flavors with a relaxed atmosphere. Their mocktail menu features handcrafted options, from fresh fruit blends to bold, creative flavors. Whether stopping in for a quick drink or staying for the music, NEAT delivers a one-of-a-kind experience worth adding to your 30A itinerary.

From Gulf-front views at Fish Out of Water to Gallion’s cozy charm and live music at NEAT, these five 30A spots offer exceptional alcohol-free drinks.
