My friend went to grab her a chair, but she left and went to the bar. 15 minutes later she came back with another woman. The woman asked why I wouldn't let the lady sit with us and asked me to go outside so she could beat my a$$. We explained the situation and the lady apologized and said the woman is a regular there and a drunk so she's not surprised she lied. This lady continued to tell people in the bar the lie to the point where we feared for our safety. They promote karaoke every night, but the DJ will not play your song unless you tip him $20. Those were his exact words to me. For safety purposes, I don't recommend going here.

It's definitely someplace that's worth checking out and experiencing.

Even on a busy Friday evening, I was able to snag a cozy round table in the back for my friend and me, which was a pleasant surprise. Bonus points for the upstairs bathrooms not requiring a code (unlike the ones downstairs)--a small but appreciated detail! I ordered an espresso martini that was dairy-free (which I love), but it ended up being a bit too sweet and slightly watery for my taste. I only took a few sips before deciding not to finish it--not bad, just not quite for me. Since I was the DD, I didn't bother swapping it out, but it was still the right call. My friend's gin cocktail, on the other hand, was light, mild, and super refreshing--she loved it! Also, shoutout to the bartender for bringing the drinks over to our table--such a nice touch. I'd absolutely come back and give another cocktail a try. The atmosphere & service alone makes it worth a return visit!

Had dinner at the Lakeside Inn in Mt Dora FL. Food was…read more outstanding; generous portions reasonably priced. Our server Tiffany was outstanding. Warmly greeted us upon arrival and offered excellent suggestions. Tiffany was courteous, professional and engaging throughout our visit while serving both our table of eight and the customers sitting outside on the patio area while never loosing her smile. Very impressed with the ambiance of both the dining:bar area and inn lobby, a time capsule of a bygone era. Both one back to the 1890's and early 1920's. Highly recommend stopping by for either a drink or lunch/dinner when visiting Mount Dora.

Be bellied up the bar and a very friendly bartender welcomed us, knowing full well we were visitors to the community and nicely asking us where we were from. They have plenty of beers to choose from and I wanted to try something new. She knew her bar that's for sure! she provided a sample to try before ordering, which I ended up doing. My better half observed a slushie machine rotating in the background and inquired. It was a sangria concoction and after sampling it chose to order that. She really liked the slushie and on yet another hot Florida summer it was not only refreshing it tasted great. The prices were reasonable. We spent about a hour at the bar and afterwards meandered over to a nearby restaurant we had our minds set on. After having supper we returned to The Nest for a couple more drinks before the concert. The sangria slushie was wiped out, so the better half ordered an Amigos Pineapple THC Soda (alcoholic beverage FYI) from the main menu and enjoyed that. There was a changing of the guard and the new bartender was just as sweet and personable as the first one. We will gladly return on our next visit to Mount Dora.

Great little dive bar I have driven past a hundred times but never stopped until tonight…read more We were on our way home from Tavares and stopped by to meet up with a few friends. Upon entering we realized one of our favorite bands was playing here tonight, Monticelli, sweet!! These brothers are the best, what a serendipity:) It's a bummer we got here so late but we were able to catch the end of their second set and most of their third set. They even played Megadeth for me, sweet! It wasn't too busy at the bar, mostly locals but it took forever to get a drink. I don't know if the bartender was new but she couldn't tell me the price for a bottled yuengling. She said she needed my name for a tab and I told here I'm paying cash, so how much? She said it depends on which band is playing, what???? Anyway I ended up just taking the beer and went to watch the band because she never returned to take my money. When I went to cash out before leaving it still took her 5 min to figure out what I owed for one beer really??? It ended up costing $5, great. Wish I knew that from the get go. The bar is a decent size and they have a large open area where they can set up more tables if needed. There is also a decent sized dance floor and stage for local bands. The sound was decent and lighting was passable for a dive bar. The men's restroom only has one toilet and urinal in a shared stall, a bit weird but it will due. They have a large parking lot with plenty of parking, which is great for crowds or food truck parties. All-n-all, a great place to hang with friends, have a cold beer, and listen to live music.
