Gulfport Chiro, Jazzy Cat, and Prima Cantina Stay Up-to-Date with Pinellas Businesses

By The Gabber Staff The Centre

The Centre at St. Pete Beach is a wellness center containing a variety of different businesses all under one roof.

Employee Brandon told The Gabber Newspaper that The Centre is currently in a “transition phase.”

The Centre has a medical marijuana doctor to help patrons obtain their medical marijuana cards and understand the cannabis and CBD product world. A botanical bar will be opening in July, serving hemp drinks, sodas, and teas. Eventually, the bar will offer certain edibles, kava, and kratom.

“We just have the cafe now (without the Cuban sandwiches) serving coffees, teas, smoothies, muffins, and bagels,” explains Brandon.

Caddy’s Paper Straws

After receiving complaints from eco-conscious patrons, Caddy’s Waterfront Restaurant made the switch over to paper straws.

“People were picking up disposable straws on the beach and they were really bothered by it,” explained one of Caddy’s patrons.

Caddy’s Manager Jennifer said, “we just switched to paper straws so our customers would be happy.”

Prima Cantina & Tacos

Many east coasters don’t realize the origins of Prima Cantina & Tacos on St. Pete Beach.

The concept originated in California, specifically in Santa Monica and Pacific Palisades. It was imported here by owners Fernando and Joel with the same super-fresh, flavorful Mexican-inspired recipes.

Prima Cantina & Tacos opened in April and quickly became one of the favorite Mexican fusion restaurants on the Gulf beaches inPinellas County.

Enjoy lunch and dinner, both indoors and on their outdoor patio.

Gulfport Chiropractic

After saving the backs of Gulfportians for 23 years, Dr. Stuart Pollack is officially retiring in August.

“I just felt like it was time to pass the reins on to somebody else,” Pollack told The Gabber Newspaper. “His name is Dr. Aaron Day. I think he’s going to be a great addition to Gulfport. He’s really dedicated and he’s a great doctor.”

Pollack will spend July showing Day the ropes around Gulfport Chiropractic, starting with familiarizing him with

Pollack’s regular patients.

“It has been a pleasure, my honor, serving the community for 23 years. It’s a little bittersweet, but I have great memories and I’ve made great friends,” Pollack said.

Jazzy Cat or Tacos My Love

If you haven’t noticed, Tacos My Love on 49th Street South became the Jazzy Cat Cafe and Lounge.

The business posted the new Jazzy Cat logo on Facebook April 30. Then officially opened under the new name May 4.

The only thing that changed happened to be the name. So if you loved Tacos My Love, don’t worry, the restaurant continues to serve tacos.

Enjoy open mic nights, dance parties, and specialty drinks.
