The Ashley Gibson Barnett Museum of Art, "The AGB" for short, is formerly known as the Polk Museum…read moreof Art (and probably what I'll always think of it as). The name change came with a huge expansion which allowed the museum to nearly thrills its exhibition and learning spaces. And let me tell you, going there pre- & post-expansion the difference is mind boggling. Polk County & Lakeland truly have something to be proud of with this museum. And the best part? Free admission!! I wasn't sure if it'd remain this way after their buildout but they are striving to keep it free for all to visit and enjoy. They have a really impressive collection for being a still smaller museum compared to the Met, Chicago Museum of Art or places like that. First, you walk into to see several Auguste Rodin sculptures, starting off strong. You can see Andy Warhol, an incredible mix of diverse artists from all over the world, and even a few Dale Chihuly blown glass pieces. It is all absolutely stunning. The AGB is a Smithsonian affiliate so they definitely have high standards. It's also located in such a great spot right off of Lake Morton next to the library & Lake Morton Black & Brew, the Peach House, Misterfish, and the newer MooTown Scoops. Whether you're feeling coffee, ice cream, drinks or actual food, it's all with a 3-4 minute walk right there. A great museum to visit!

If you like bourbon or whiskey at all, you'll wanna come check out their shelves here. The bartender was nice and you can get a good selection of beer on tap, mixed drinks or standard bar sips.

It was a Friday night and we had just finished burgers at Grievous Angel, where it was loud. We…read morewere a group of four ladies that wanted to have some drinks without yelling at each other, so I searched for quieter bars and found this one. I'm so glad we went! The people working were so friendly and welcoming! And they had a happy hour on a Friday!! So instead of $13/$14 drinks, they had a good amount for about $8 instead. They also had cozy couches and places to sit and background music playing, but we could hear each other fine. I noticed that they had a good chunk of regulars that were greeted with a really friendly "heeeeyyy!" Or "what's up?!!" We had green tea shots and drinks and the bill was pretty cheap. I think I paid like $23 for a drink and 2 green tea shots. I'll definitely be back.

The food Menu is quite small and is typical carnival food but can get the job done if you're in a pinch to eat. The local vibe is definitely here. Many partons are from around the historical Zephyrhills area. Long time locals growing up around here in particular. While there's a lack of out-of-market sports packages NASCAR fans can rejoice this is a watch party bar. Sadly, even though I moved out of Zephyrhills yet it's a hole in the wall spot if living in the many new sub developments popping up around town.

Each has the prices labeled on the bottom. You choose one, take a seat, choose your paints, and then spend several hours absorbed into art! It takes awhile because you have to do multiple layers of paint to make the colors show up properly. This place is neat because it's connected to a little cafe. They have an iPad at the connecting doorway so you can order drinks or snacks delivered while you work. We didn't know about that so we didn't do much with it this time but we definitely would in the future!

We were provided with a complimentary taster of wine (standard for all patrons) and were provided with a 'custom' menu, specifically made for us to celebrate our anniversary. The service was excellent, as were the wines, cheeses and charcuterie that we thoroughly enjoyed. All of the staff made us feel very welcome, along with the owner, who made a point to come and wish us a happy anniversary. The establishment is bright and well appointed, and there is also a small 'market' where you can purchase cheeses and meats to take home, which we did. If you enjoy good wines and good cheeses etc., then this place is well worth a visit. We highly recommend The Wine Garden!

Actually many big events have been hold in this location. The TPepin has big parking space that may include 300 cars or more. Their room can accommodate up to 1000 people if needed. They have nice reception area with waterfall and fire. Their side walkway include pool table and shuffle board. In the ballroom, they have high ceiling decorated lighting which is pleasant. The stage is available in the ballroom for any presentation or announcement. The also have to be side bar and kitchen bar if you decide an open bar with munchies items. The bathroom is comfortable. They also has outside patio for any Open grilled item. I have been here several time, I believe it is also good for wedding or anniversary. Puff and Stuff actually has an office there if you need catering.

The inside has the typical atmosphere of a local dive bar but it is also clean.

There is a basketball court out back to shoot some hoops as well as some corn hole boards...we shot hoops! My wife and girlfriend drank vodka-cran & sodas while me & my buddy drank some cold pbr's. For food we ordered some hot wings which were ok & could have been much better if they were just cooked a bit more...easy fix. We also ordered some redneck nachos that were very tasty! At the bar they have a half gallon glass water filled container with a shot glass at the bottom.The metal cover has a slot in the top to drop a quarter through & hopefully get the quarter in the shot glass ...I went 3 of 4! Free drink for getting the quarter in the shot glass. Finally I give a solid 3-1/2 stars and would notch it up to 4-1/2 stars with some TLC attention to the outside venue area. I do recommend you visit this very different establishment for an enjoyable time. Enjoy!

We attended the Candlelight concert ABBA vs Queen. I am reviewing the venue which was beautiful and…read morewell kept. The string quartet was magnificent, and I highly recommend them. I would give the ticketing and people in charge of seating 1 star. This has no bearing on the venue itself, but selling tickets to a performance by section, and first come first serve on seating was mass chaos. There was a lot of frustration between a lot of people who did not show up early to stand in line outside for 30 minutes as we had to, and we sat in our four seats on the third row and multiple older people would come in and ask us to move from our seats because they wanted to sit in them, or ask us if we would move to where they could get a better view when they showed up five minutes before the concert began. It was absolutely ridiculous and very frustrating as we had to go and funnel inside like cattle rushing to seats so we could sit together, and then try to save seats anytime our husbands went to the bar to grab a drink or go to the bathroom. People would come up and ask us if they could sit there. It just is not organized at all, and that would be my very main concern and frustration with this venue. I am not sure if it was the ticketing people or the venue itself, but we will probably not be doing another concert there unless they sell tickets to specific seats. Again, beautiful venue and wonderful talented musicians, but the seating was not organized and incredibly frustrating.

Can't wait to go back for the hip hop concert next time.
