    Traveling from Ft Lauderdale to Sarasota. Should I stop anywhere? Any good bottle shops?

    Places >> Florida >> FTL or Sarasota

    Plus, there are a ton of existing threads with plenty of info on both cities.

    I am wondering more about what's in between FTL and Sarasota. I was hoping that a local would see this and might be able to recommend something that is on the way to Sarasota.

    Fort Lauderdale...Total Wine, ABC, Craft Beer Cartel (higher prices but nice selection).

    Naples...Total Wine and maybe Whole Foods

    Don't know about Ft. Myers and Sarasota but I'm sure others can chime in too

    Gotcha. I was confused, I guess, by the title. @Blazer06 is correct: there's really nothing worth stopping at between FTL and Naples. And I'm guessing that your best options -- if you're just interested in bottle shops -- are in FTL and Sarasota. Pretty sure there aren't any world-class hidden diamonds in between.

    Assuming you are traveling up 75, how far off of the interstate are you willing to travel for a bottle shop?

    My friend @BKnarr is The Man in SW FL. I'd follow his lead even if his suggestion is 20 minutes ...
