This week’s bar: Barrel & Grain Local Taphouse The scene: In the rustic downtown West Palm Beach space previously occupied by Spoto’s Oyster Bar and Gratify, Barrel & Grain offers a gratifying lineup of brews (almost 200 bottled, another 50 rotating on tap), wines (15, always changing) and spirits (i.e., ...

About the size of a microwave oven, it’s pedestrian-friendly, too, awaiting book lovers next to a sidewalk in bucolic Palm Beach Country Estates, along the northern boundary of ...
It’s amazing how quickly you bond with someone when hurtling backwards in the dark on a tiny raft — which is exactly the slippery situation you’ll find yourself in on Black Thunder, a tunnel, then a funnel, of fear, Rapids Water Park-style. Now in its 35th year, the 35-acre park ...
