And, perhaps, equally tempting is their wide array of refreshing ice creams of many flavors in addition to key lime. Click on their ice cream link to salivate over all their flavors.
Our buses will be parked throughout the day in the Ron Jon’s lot, so you can drop off your purchases and ride the bus back to the beach.
At 3:45 we will depart the beach and drive about 1 ¼ hrs. to Winter Garden for dinner. Within one large parking lot, you would have the following choice of restaurants:
Romano’s Macaroni Grill Little Greek Fresh Grill Bonefish Grill Bonefish Grill Aji Sushi Teppan (Japanese)
Five Guys Burgers Firehouse Subs
Arby’s, McD’s UNO Pizzeria
And Starbucks to keep you awake !
We allot 90 minutes for dining and reboarding the buses. At 6:30, we depart for Lamers Bus Yard, arriving at about 7:15.

But if you thought they only sold pies, gaze upon their selection of Key Lime Beers, Key Lime Cooler Cookies, Key Lime Candies, Key Lime Candles, Key Lime Chocolates, Key Lime Pretzels, Key Lime Wines and a selection of over 500+ different Hot Sauces, Grilling Sauces and Marinades. I asked about the ability to take home a pie during a four-hour return trip and was told they offer frozen pies which would be perfect when you arrive home.
Upon entering you are greeted and treated as though you are visiting an enchanted island and as an attraction, given a guided tour of the store -- a working gourmet dessert production facility.

We would like to welcome all club members who are fully vaccinated by September 1st, to join us on this trip. Shepard Park is a 5-acre, ocean-front park providing picnic, shower, and restroom facilities for guests. The Park was named after astronaut Alan Shepard and provides an excellent view of space launches. Facilities include 10 large picnic pavilions, several smaller covered picnic tables and a bathhouse. In addition to strolling along the beach, there is also a very long wooden boardwalk parallel to the water. Perhaps most important is the year-round life guard.
And right next door is the Florida Key Lime Pie Company.
There is also a Pizza Hut a 3-minute walk away at 179 E Cocoa Beach Causeway, Cocoa Beach. They also offer delivery if you call 321-783-2780.
In mid-afternoon, you might want to walk just a few blocks to visit Ron Jon’s Surf Shop to pick up tropical merchandise for yourself and/or your grandkids.
