You'll never not have a good time here. We've gone countless times, especially at late at night…read moresince they close late, and it's the perfect spot to end the night after going out. We usually bring our own board games and just enjoy hanging out with friends. We love the bar and the pizza. We've been coming here for a little over a year now and always have a great experience. The movie nights are also such a fun touch and make it a really relaxed, chill space. The only small suggestion would be possibly extending the menu in the future, but honestly, no complaints at all, we love this place.

I went from 5:45pm to 8ish on Saturday, January 10th for a meetup organized by Women Unplugged…read more It was my first time at The Acre. It's a good concept of open, outdoor gathering spaces. I advise going before March while it's still nice during the day and into the evening. There are a few dining and beverage options - no outside food/drink permitted. While l am not an outdoors person, I appreciate the concept. I'd consider returning for their movie on the lawn offerings and as an additional place to gather with family and friends. I took off a star for unclear parking and large holes in the primary access lane/road. Additional signage would be ideal for parking. Arrive with enough time to park inside the designated areas. Do not part along the side street near the homes. They have the right to call a tow truck.

I was excited to see they had a mini print vending machine with custom options for the spot. These prints are watercolors made my a local artist and only cost $1.

I didn't realize that there was an indoor baby/kid playground attached to the cafe, and saw a number of young families picking up a drink or snack before heading over. There's extra parking behind the building to accommodate, just realize it's the turn before the front entrance!

That setup was honestly awesome and made the experience really enjoyable. They also had food options for adults along with a great assortment of kid-friendly snacks and drinks like juices and yogurt melts, which was a huge plus. The only concern was that the slide had a gouge/damaged area on it, and unfortunately a child got hurt because of it. We would still come back, but we'll definitely be more cautious until that's repaired.

We had our wedding reception here in October 2022…read more Pros: - the venue is beautiful - the food wait staff were friendly and helpful Cons: - we found a snake in the venue while setting up and had to trap and release it outside ourselves - we were up sold on a bunch of tv/display screens ($1,000+) but they didn't function properly and ruined our grand entrance. They refused to refund us for this. We didn't even get much support for the set up of the screen. The tech they sent didn't speak English so we couldn't even communicate what the problems were to them. - The venue is grossly over priced ($18k+ for 5pm-11pm) - Josephine, the owner or operator of the business, was not communicative. We asked her to confirm things multiple times well before the reception and heard very little to nothing back so we had to hope she was going to deliver. She was rude and dismissive at times to my family members and wedding planner. - we ended up having to put together much of the decorations ourselves even though we paid for the staffing Overall, we did the best we could with what we had to enjoy our special night. But we would not recommend our experience to others - especially not for the price they asked of us.

Growing up in Altamonte Springs, I had driven by Maison & Jardin too many times to count. I…read moreremember how upscale, exotic and enticing the European-style restaurant seemed tucked away behind lush trees and a long driveway entrance. As luck may have it, a friend of mine decided to have his wedding reception in one of the smaller private rooms. I was astounded by the beauty of the place. Seeing it up close was breath-taking. Archways, ornate decorations, elaborate flower decorations, over-sized windows that overlook lush landscaping including a small pond surrounded by statues. The overall atmosphere is perfect for any special occasion and it lends itself very well to beautifully composed photographs. Inside the lighting continued setting the perfect mood with dim lighting, low playing music and upscale table settings. Not idle for photo taking but great for setting the right mood. While absolutely beautiful and stunning, for all the luxury and European charm, I wasn't too thrilled with the food and the room the reception was held in was quite small. And I'm sure it all came with a hefty price-tag.

Gives off a New Orleans vibe with two rooms and one has a loft. Lots of great artwork. Our party had about 60 people. A DJ and room for dancing once the tables were moved. BIG bar with lots of room to spread out. Friendly staff. I loved it here.. Great venue for small group.

ONLY GAVE 3 stars for how beautiful the venue is NOT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE…read more We are 22 days away from our wedding and due to lack of communication, time management, and organization we made the choice to CANCEL. The disorganization of meeting to do final planning and final pricing was just the start of our disappointment. They have a policy of paying all fees 60 days before the event which is completely understandable. What is not understandable is holding us accountable for them being late with final paper work, 35 days late. When we were first contacted to discuss our wedding plans we were under the impression we were meeting to discuss arrangement of the room and timing for the day. To our surprise it was more about what we wanted to add to our bill because it was already late and because it was late there is a 10% late fee but they will "wave it" if we pay immediately. Mind you at the meeting all the questions we asked 90% of the response was "We can figure that out the day of the wedding," I did contact the owner and inform her of this iteration. Long story short we then had another horrible experience when it came to trying to pay our bill and the owner threatening to cancel our date and add the late fee back on. They have no empathy, understanding, or time management. Will blame you for there mistakes and expect you to give them grace but not show it in return. Like I said beautiful venue hate that we lost 1,000 in this place do to there horrible management style only use this place with a wedding coordinator.

Starting the wedding planning process can feel daunting, magical, overwhelming, and exciting all at…read morethe same time. My advice to any couple starting their wedding planning journey would be to start with selecting your wedding planner and I could not sing my praises highly enough for the Blue Ribbon Weddings team. Trusting your vendors is incredibly important and investing in those you trust will make all the difference. When you're in the hands of Katie and her team you will have nothing to fret from the get-go. I thank my lucky stars that I had heard about Katie and her team through the grapevine and knew that if we needed anything for our wedding day, it was her as our planner. Many people speak highly of her team's organization, communication, thoughtfulness, attention to detail, eye for design, and the list goes on. I had the pleasure of working most closely with Katie and Em - and boy, was everyone right. Not only did they live up to these qualities, Katie and Em surpassed their shining reputation by leaps and bounds. By the time our wedding day came along, we knew if anything unpreventable happened or if even the tiniest detail was slightly askew, Katie and Em would be there to make things right or even better than we planned for. Over our almost two year engagement, they stayed engaged with me, learning as much as possible about my now-husband and I to ensure our day was personalized to our style, preferences, and priorities. I am a perfectionist and was thinking about small details very early on - from the style and design of reserved seating signs to fitting many specific moments into our timeline (like hiding with my maid of honor before the ceremony for a few deep breaths, pouring champagne into a champagne tower for the perfect photo-op, or having a moment to sneak away and make an entrance into the cocktail hour). Not a single detail was missed and she heard every single one of our wishes with eagerness to make our day our dream come true. I cannot fail to mention how Katie and Em circled a coffee table with countless shades of blush, ivory, and sand-colored linens seeing how the fabrics looked in different light and from different angles. I laugh at this memory a bit now but cherish how they took the task just as seriously as I did because they knew how important a small detail like this was to me. Beyond wedding planning checklists, Katie went above and beyond in many other ways that we began to call her our fairy godmother. From ensuring I had a pair of sweatpants to hide from the drizzling rain after my spray tan, providing the best advise on wedding etiquette, to celebrating a job over and move states away during the planning process, Katie knows how to make every moment matter, is there by your side, and even 10 steps ahead. I found myself feeling as though I gained friends in the process, not just a husband. After accepting a job in another state, many people asked how we would plan our wedding from afar. Thankfully, this was not a worry for us. I did not carry a single doubt that Katie and Em would ensure the process was seamless - and our in-person planning turned virtual (pre-COVID) and they handled the new situation with ease and never missed a beat. While I spent many hours dreaming up details I wanted to personalized and focusing on personal items, Katie and Em elevated our vision and made it more than we could ever dream up. I confidently tell everyone I know (and even those that I don't - haha) that choosing Blue Ribbon Weddings would be the best decision they could make for their wedding planning process. Being able to peacefully sleep the night before our wedding was never something I had to worry about until I laid in bed the evening before - I have Katie and Em to thank for this and every single teensy tiny detail that was perfectly put in place for us. I cannot recommend Blue Ribbon Weddings enough. I would choose to work with them a million times again with them at the tip-top of our priority list.

First of all, you can tell that the owner, Brittany, put money, time, and effort into a first-class production- the stage, sound, and lighting are top quality! And the bands that they bring in are eclectic as well- a rock band one night, a jazz band another, an acoustic duo on another. This is also a bar with a great staff and a large selection of quality beers and wines to suit every palate. Apopka has long needed a great live event venue, and this place is better than anything I expected. Do you self a favor- stop by at night and see some great music. You won't regret it!
