The Neighborhood:
Springfield is one of Jacksonville's most historic neighborhoods, and The Laura sits at the heart of it. This home was built in 1914, one block from Main Street where you have some of the best eating and drinking in the city. Locals drive from across Jacksonville specifically to come here.
1748 Bakehouse does seasonal pies and from-scratch sandwiches made with local ingredients. Uptown Kitchen and Bar runs all-day brunch and does it well. Othello is the standout: Spanish and Middle Eastern small plates from a chef trained at Gramercy Tavern in New York. For a group, book ahead. Strings Sports Brewery is walking distance, local beer and every game on. Dreamette has been serving legendary soft serve since 1948.
Every November PorchFest brings 20 or more bands to the historic front porches of Springfield and thousands into the streets. The Laura is steps from the festival route, with both porches in the middle of it.
