McWane Science Center
Fun and learning never end at McWane Science Center, a nonprofit, hands-on museum and IMAX(R) Dome Theater. Four floors of interactive exhibits celebrate science and wonder - from an amazing collection of dinosaurs to innovative environmental showcases, imaginative early childhood playgrounds, and an awe-inspiring aquarium. The energy and excitement of discovery spring to life through an extensive lineup of science demonstrations performed daily by talented educators. The adventure intensifies in the IMAX(R) Dome Theater, where wide-eyed visitors experience the sights and sounds of breathtaking films on a 5-story-tall screen surrounded by 3 tons of high-intensity speakers.

Bradley's Country Store
Since 1927, Bradley's has made the best, old fashioned, country smoked and fresh sausage that money can buy. Using a secret family recipe, our sausage is made weekly and does not contain gluten, sugar, artificial ingredients or preservatives. It is also compliant with a variety of diet programs, such as Whole 30, Keto and Paleo! Sausage isn't all we have to offer! Take a drive out into the country on the beautiful canopy roads where you'll feel as if time has slowed down. Spend hours out on the picnic tables listening to birds sing and the wind blow through the canopy of Oak Trees and Spanish moss. Some may even get the chance to witness how we make our grits the old fashioned way, using an old Ford tractor and a Grist Mill dating back to the early 1930's. Join us for lunch where you can sit in a rocking chair on the front porch and savor a Bradley's sausage dog, RC Cola and a Moon Pie!

The mirrored walls of the Tallahassee Automobile Museum enclose more than just automobiles! This 100,000 sf. facility houses cars, trucks and memorabilia of all kinds. In addition to the antique cars, muscle cars, concept cars, and trucks -- check out the eclectic collection of Steinway pianos, Remington sculptures, Case knives, Barbie dolls, boats, boat motors, children's pedal cars, and die-cast toys. Journey through history with Native American artifacts, firearms, antique cash registers, pocket watches, salt-cellars, baby bottles, silver spoons, baseball cards, antique golf balls and clubs, 100-year-old brass-bladed fans, and much, much more.
