Costa Family McDonald’s will break ground on the first McDonald’s restaurant in Santa Rosa Beach on Wednesday, March 20, 2024, at 8:30 a.m.

  • The groundbreaking ceremony will be attended by David Costa Jr., owner and operator of Costa Family McDonald’s, along with local dignitaries and members from the Walton Area Chamber of Commerce.

The new 4,000-square-foot restaurant, adjacent to Publix in Santa Rosa Beach, is being built by Stansell Properties & Development. It will feature a large parking area, drive-thru, and ample dine-in space for patrons.

The location will also introduce kiosks where customers can pay cash for their orders, a first for the market. The newest Costa location is expected to create over 60 jobs for the community.

  • Construction is projected to be completed by June 2024.
