Downtown Dade City is known for its charming storefronts and array of restaurants.<ref>{{cite web|author=Laura Kinsler |date=October 25, 2008 |title=Dade City Downtown Sees Lots Of Changes |url=http://www2.tbo.com/content/2008/oct/25/pa-businesses-busy/news-pasco/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130204004417/http://www2.tbo.com/content/2008/oct/25/pa-businesses-busy/news-pasco/ |archive-date=February 4, 2013 |access-date=February 17, 2012 |publisher=TBO.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|author=Geoff Fox |date=July 19, 2008 |title=Oh, Henry!

Popular downtown dining options include, but are certainly not limited to, [[Florida Cracker]] Lunch on Limoges, Del Carmen Mexican restaurant, and Olio, which offers authentic Italian cuisine. 

Located on Meridian Avenue adjacent to the police department, Dade City City Hall serves as the beating heart of the city's municipal government operations. Directly across the street sits the Hugh Embry Branch Library, a member of the Pasco County Library Cooperative.

Standing front and center as the crown jewel of historic downtown Dade City is the stately [[Pasco County Courthouse]]. The courthouse, designed by [[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]]-based architect [[Edward Columbus Hosford]], was completed in 1909.[[File:Historic Pasco County Courthouse 2.jpg|thumb|400x400px|The historic Pasco County Courthouse.]]
[[Wells Fargo]] currently occupies the two-story brick building across from the courthouse, on the northeast corner of Meridian Avenue and 7th Street. The building was originally opened by the Bank of Pasco County in 1891; this was the first brick structure ever constructed in Dade City.
