Midday · 30A, Destin & Panama City Beach

Lunch, Without
Leaving the House

Nobody wants to get in a car at one o'clock. Lunch made where you are, light enough that the afternoon still happens.

Before you ask

The questions we get

Can you do lunch and dinner the same day?
Yes, and it's often the better value — we're already there, already shopped.

Tell us both when you book and we'll price it as one day rather than two visits.
Can it be on the beach?
Lunch on the sand needs the county food-service permit — $150, or $300 over 25 guests — and a delivery fee.

Tell us and we'll sort the permit. Remember: no glass on the beach.
Is this too much food for lunch?
It's deliberately lighter than our dinners. Enough that nobody's hungry at three, not so much that the afternoon disappears.
What do you need from us?
A clean kitchen, clear counters, a working stove and oven, and somewhere to park.
