This place was like being in a roomful of friends. Almost like a real-life Cheers episode, and I…read moreloved it! I sat at the bar and watched the bartender chat with every single person at the bar in a most genuine and friendly way. The couple next to me actually knew him by name and he also knew them by name... so that's a very important quality for me! I ordered this French dip style sandwich, very generously accompanied with French fries. As I was attending the Film Festival across the street at the Ritz, I wasn't able to drink alcohol, but the drinks looked really good! Ambiance-wise: this is a very fun and open-spaced bar. I sat at the bar but there were picnic tables behind me (indoor). It was lovely and very well lit. When I walked outside, I felt very safe. This is a really great spot to hang out with friends there in Sanford!

We each got burgers, and 2 appetizers, the pretzel and the kettle chips with blue cheese and balsamic reduction. The balsamic reduction was not a reduction - it was practically straight balsamic vinegar that pooled on the bottom and soaked the chips. Couldn't eat them. The mustard with the pretzel was great though. The burgers were a mess, and were not even patties - just chunks of ground beef held together with cheese. And it didn't taste like a burger. It was simply awful. We each took a bite then walked out. Fortunately you pay and order at the bar before you even sat down so we could just get out of there. The hose made kettle chips they advertise with Wop's seasoning - we literally saw the cook open a large bag of store bought chips and sprinkle pepper on them. We went somewhere else to eat after this. We're really own upset that they marketed their food as something it was clearly not. If you're all about the beers this place would probably be good. Just don't order food. Except the pretzel. That was decent.

Tuffy's concert venue seems to be a combo outdoor (covered! But open air) bierhall kind of place…read morewith an indoor aircraft hangar converted into concert venue. Standing only, all concrete in the hangar, one bar, lots of waiting. The bathrooms are cleanish and highly functional, no flushing issues, not disgusting, multiple women's stalls. For our concert, the venue set up a Coleman cooler of water and small free water cups by the entry, but they did not make an effort to refill the water jug, so we got quite dehydrated and unhappy halfway through. Liquid death cans and cups of ice can be purchased for about the same cost as alcohol at the bar. Nutrl was only $6 and change, I was thrilled! The sound quality was EXCEPTIONAL! Kudos and a half to Tuffy's for excellent balance and not blowing our eardrums. The light show, meh, too many dark blends, too moody and could barely see the band. When most lit up, I enjoyed seeing the stage. The place got very crowded, very quickly. They need crowd control and to not overpack concert goers like sardines. The outdoor bierhall vibe was chill but was basically a refuge for chainsmokers :( Would def go back, but have clear expectations, multiple water cans in pockets, and very very supportive shoes for tha concrete floor.

The Acoustics in the place is absolutely fabulous. I also enjoyed the outside patio area just to chill out and they had a little fire pit area you could relax around to where you could still hear the music. Inside they had a little bar area and places to sit down where you could order food and get drinks. Everything was super clean and there were bouncers everywhere so I felt super safe! Also, the little Hidden Gem suffering bastards is inside and had a nice little visit with some drinks in there before the concert! It was a really great experience!

Last Saturday, they hosted the Tonka Rodeo event. I decided to visit for fun and came around 7ish…read more There was live music on stage, as well as other vendors, inflatables, face painting, and best of all, a mechanical bull. Citrus City Craft was selling some special cocktails outside, and I saw the berry bourbon catching my eye. I had to go with that. Since it was an event, it just came on a plastic cup, making it easy to hold. It was a great fruity drink. I forgot what kind of berry they used, but it was pretty sweet and enjoyable. The bourbon they used was indeed high quality as the booziness lasted almost an hour. Though, thankfully I was still good enough do two rides on the mechanical bull and last for a decent account of time. And what was amazing about the drink was the cost, just 8 bucks! I would have expected to pay at least 10 dollars or more for a great quality drink for a special event, but 8 dollars was quite a steal. While I didn't go inside the restaurant/bar, I just enjoyed the outdoor entertainment at the strip mall, and tried the cocktail. Because of their excellent quality of the drink at the event, I definitely need to visit inside and try their beer selection as well in the future.

If you're looking for a laid-back spot with a huge drink selection and fun weekly activities,…read moreHourglass is a great local hang. The parking situation isn't the best, there's very limited parking in the front lot of the brewery but there is a lot behind the building if it's full, and it can get full so just be prepared to walk a bit if it's busy. Inside, there's a solid amount of seating with a relaxed, casual vibe. They also have games you can play while hanging out, which makes it a great place to spend a couple hours with friends. What really stands out is the selection. They have a huge variety of beers (something for everyone), plus ciders, non-alcoholic options, and even soda. It's one of those places where everyone in your group will be able to find something they like. They don't serve food, but you're allowed to bring your own, which is a big plus. There's a wing spot just a few doors down that makes it super convenient to grab something and bring it back. They also host events throughout the week, my personal favorite is Wednesday night bingo. It's always a fun crowd and a good midweek activity. Overall, it's a great local brewery with a welcoming vibe, tons of drink options, and fun things to do. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area

Want a brewery with a great beer, cocktail and food selection? Look no further than Orange County…read moreBrewers! This brewery has a great selection of brews and also serves cocktails for those non beer drinkers. Their happy hour is really good as well with $7 cocktails and cheaper beer. Then they also have food partners with Tin and Taco as well as Sodough square pizza. While there we got the pizza which was fresh and delicious, probably one of the better pizzas I've had. The ambiance is your typical brewery feel with lots of space and seating around as well as tvs to watch. But honestly the only complaint we had was the server we had as she had an attitude and I was using my pub pass for a free beer which she charged me for then said she couldn't do a refund. But then the bartender said they could refund it, showing the waitress misspoke and also gave us a coupon for next time. The service by the waitress almost ruined it but we may go back.

It was 95 percent rice, hardly any of the other fillings what so ever. It was also quite dry and I needed a side of sour cream. The wait staff was horrible. The waiter kept disappearing for long periods of time. At one point I decided to time it. I did not see him around for 6 minutes. I would come back again for the beer but that is it.

We both got tasters (honestly we were swayed to get he flight because the boarding is swerved on us manatee shaped lol) and we ended up LOVING the cactus sour. So much so that we took a growler home. And tank tops. And stickers. And koozies LOL Very much looking forward to going back and sitting on their patio which appears to be quite inviting! You could tell thee were lots of locals and regulars there between the different seating areas of low tips, high tops, and oodles of bar space. One star removed though because - y'all, your beer and food is too good for you to NOT take the extra step and make your own ranch dressing.

At some point all the orders came out except for one person on our table. It seems the order got lost so he got his food late.

The burgers were cooked perfectly, the onion rings were crispy, the zingers were hot and still crunchy, and even the celery and carrots were fresh with no brown spots (yes, the side veggies do matter).
