Posting to try and save you internet strangers some money and effort - don’t go to the Battle Bros pickle festival in Boca today unless you love AI “art” on everything and don’t care much for pickles.

Event was promoted as a pickle palooza but it was a sad field with no pickle decor (besides some dollar store pickle blow ups hanging from the registration tent) and like only 2 pickle specific booths.

Of all the food trucks, only 2 had pickle themed items (and only a dish or two, not a full pickle menu).

Everything else was your basic vendor booth mix of 3d printed things, accessories with AI prompts all over them, and some MLMs.

So basically, only go if you want to pay $15 admission plus $5 parking for a basic farmer’s market vendor setup.

Sad we’ve got such false advertisement on a Boca event!

My husband and I are taking our young kids to Boca in a few months to see my father in law. We are staying near the Boca mall. We want to go out to dinner without the kids but be close to where we are staying so that in case of an issue we can come back quickly. Any recommendations for a good restaurant in that area?

Any recommendations for places to celebrate me and my wife's anniversary? We are also expecting a baby so we look for options that are pregnancy safe.

Thanks beforehand :)

Looking for suggestions on where I can donate canned and other shelf stable foods. Thanks!

Remember how everyone who believed in Trump used to come out to the corner of St. Andrews and wave flags and show their MAGA conviction?

What happened?
Why don't Trump supporters rally any more? Am I just missing it?

Looking to get some advice, moving down to Florida with my family and torn between Boca or Delray (realize this sub may be biased but still value the input).

My wife and 2 daughters (aged 9 & 4) are looking to make the move back to South Florida (we lived in Naples for 5 years when we first married) from Boston. Wife wants to live closer to her parents who are not in the best health and I have a great transfer opportunity in Miami with my current employer.

Currently make between $180-225k a year depending on performance, income would remain the same in Florida and trend up with time. We would be selling our fully paid off house here and walk away with around $1MM to put towards a single family home. A few questions we have:

1. Schooling, how do the public schools compare between the two towns?
2. Culture/activities, which has more activities going on?
3. Safety, in general, which town has better safety records?
4. Housing, which has a wider variety of options?
5. Commuting, I would have to go into Miami once or twice a week, how is the commute?
6. Affordability, which town in general in more affordable?
7. People. One of the things we disliked about Naples were the generally older & snootier population, which area is more laid back in general?

We will be making a few trips before moving to research, just interested in folks opinions here. Appreciate your time.

Hi ladies! I (47F)will be visiting the area in early November, with my husband who will be traveling for business. I am looking for guidance on what to wear - what the vibe is and what is seasonally appropriate.

Is Boca preppy or casual or trendy? What is appropriate for the season in early November?

I will be attending at least one dinner - with one other couple - and possibly an event that is a larger group for cocktails/apps but at most I think this dress code would be business attire

Any suggestions you have (bonus if you can drop some inspo pics!) would be amazing!

Thanks in advance! 🩷

I'm wondering why there's no festival for 2026

I'm going to do some renovations to my recently bought house. I know size of budget is relative but I have heard of some very large budgets. Our budget is 75K all in max. This budget is not for buying stuff around the house this is for the actual renovation but use the interior designer to support with choosing flooring, vanity, paint color, etc. Is there is a minimum? How much should I expect to pay? Any recommendations?

Does anyone have suggestions for entertainment(DJ/MC) and game rentals for a bar/bat mitzvah? Looking for best bang for the buck. I know DJ/MC can vary wildly in terms of skills/engagement but feel like game rental company are game rentals? Any advice or insight would be appreciated. Thanks,

Has anyone dealt with getting hate symbols removed around Boca?

There are hate symbols painted all over East Boca, and I’ve called the police five times, but nothing has been done to get them removed or covered up.

I’m frustrated that these are still out in the open in our community. Does anyone have contacts with the City of Boca Raton, code enforcement, public works, or local officials who could help get this addressed?

I’m looking for actual contacts or suggestions on how to escalate this and get the symbols removed. Any help would be appreciated.

What are your favorite spots if you leave in unincorporated areas? I was trying to go to spanish river park, parking was like 40 bucks IIRC, which spots are the best one if you are in the unincorporated area of boca?

Going to be spending some time in Boca, but I’ve never been here before. I’m hoping to find a good golf range in the area. Just looking for clean golf balls and good grass. If it’s not consistently packed that would be ideal. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Overall course recommendations are also welcome.

I'm looking for a shop that does fine line tattoos for a decent price. I am a student at FAU and dont want to spend hundreds of dollars. I want to get "Tough Love" tattooed in this font, but a little thinner, on my upper thigh and about 4 to 5 inches long. Any shop suggestions and/or price estimates?

does anyone have any recommendations for a 1 bedroom apartment just under 2k a month. looking to sign the least in may or august

Hi! I’m looking for a good hairstylist anywhere around Boca, Delray, Boynton, Lake Worth, Wellington, Palm Beach Gardens, or Jupiter.

I’m a guy growing my hair out well past waist length with the goal of eventually donating it while still keeping my hair long afterward. It’s currently around shoulder length, very thick/dense, and naturally wavy (around 2B). I’ll probably be ready for a trim sometime in November.

I’m a little shy about going to a salon since I’ve never really had long hair before, so I’m hoping to find someone friendly and easygoing. I don’t need a specialized curly cut or anything complicated — just a simple perimeter trim to clean up and even out the ends while keeping as much length and fullness as possible.

I’m specifically trying to avoid layers, thinning shears, texturizing, or debulking. Basically, I’m looking for someone who’s comfortable working with very thick, longer hair and will genuinely respect “just the ends.”

Ideally I’d like to stay around $75 or less, and I’d prefer an independent/local stylist over a big chain.

If anyone has a stylist they trust, I’d really appreciate recommendations. Thank you! ❤️

Anyone know and recommend any day camps where I can send my children on 10/12/2026 when there’s no school?

Hello, I’m in need of a door installer. I have a French patio door I need installed. Currently there’s a custom fitted double door and the opening/framing will need to be adjusted to fit the new door. Also will require interior drywall work due to door reframing.

Looking for somebody who is clean and will do a quality job.

Thank you

Just outside Boca Raton, you can explore brilliantly manicured gardens, fascinating wildlife, an appetizing cafe, and informative exhibits.

looking to team up with someone for a rental. girls preferred. budget 1.5k on my end. looking to share a 2b2b in east delray or east boca.

i already have plenty of spaces i am interested in, but the girl i was searching with disappeared. the spaces are $3000 and under, and we'd split the rent.

23f with a kitten. i am community and career oriented, often out of the house. no time for drama or making your life any harder. i am cooperative and come to compromises easily.

Hey everyone,

Throwing a bit of a weird, niche request out into the community to see if anyone can help me satisfy a persistent curiosity.

I have a large ceramic vase I need a quick scan on. Because of its size and weight, it is completely immovable from my home. I am NOT looking for a commercial appraisal, official authentication, or anything for resale purposes.

I’m just hoping to find a local graduate student, an environmental scientist, or a hobbyist/metallurgist who has access to a handheld portable XRF analyzer (running in a Geochem/Soil/Mining mode) who might be willing to swing by and take a few non-destructive scans of the glaze and raw clay.

I’d be happy to pay you for your time, thanks so much!

My mom sustained injuries from a car accident over a month ago, does anyone have recommendations for a personal injury attorney/firm?
