Stopped in for a date night and what a cute, unique bar. The theming is all submarine/underwater and very unique. We were seated in a tucked away booth so we had some privacy and the bartender was very attentive and knowledgeable. They have a wide variety of cocktails and different appetizers to try. It was a lot of fun and great for a night out. read more

Love the drinks and the board games !! The lavender spritz is so delish! Would love to see them chill the wine first BUT definitely a great place to visit! read more

Extremely good food. Ribeye was extremely tender it melted in my mouth. Garlic smashed potatoes were dry and I would not recommend them. I would eat there again. read more

Our server, Aubrey, was wonderful she was attentive, personable, and truly made our first visit special. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend others give it a try. read more

Unique experience with a fun submarine theme. The menu is small, but everything we tried was good. The bartender was very accommodating

Went again for burlesque show night. It was a fun and different experience. We drank wine and ordered several appetizers. This is a lovely and unique spot. Can't wait to try their new restaurant a couple doors down. read more

We went here with our siblings that live in Florida. They recommended this place as one of their favorite locations. It's different because you're in what appears to be a submarine and damn does it feel like it as well. You are so damn tight in this place and it's small. We sat down and got waited on immediately. I wasn't in a beer mood and ordered some wine instead. The bartender was down to earth. She was the best of the bartenders out there. We did selfies when my wife went to the bathroom and she was such a good sport because she got involved in the pics. Ran into my siblings friends and we got to talking about wine and beer. Good location, good place to come and have drinks. Love this place. Good Stop. read more

Fun atmosphere, good drinks, friendly staff. We would love to return for one of their Burlesque shows. Definitely recommend stopping in and staying a while like we did. read more

I had a date night and the atmosphere was perfect! Drinks very good and very friendly staff.

My friend and I wanted a fun cocktail on a quiet Sunday afternoon and we got that and more. We sat in a porthole booth and it was quite cozy and secluded. We felt like we were on a ship in there. The porthole had too much light coming in and the server offered to cover it so it was perfectly dim. We were able to chill and take our time eating and drinking. Sometimes servers will rush u but she did not. Pretty sure she was the owner so everything was perfect. My drink was refreshing and light. Just what I wanted. And had a special little bubble on top. Not a huge bar menu or any top shelf but a good selection to keep u happy and tipsy!! The food was well prepared and tasty but the portion could have been a bit bigger for the price and because it was an appetizer for sharing. I let my friend have it since I wasn't too hungry anyway. Easily one person size. All in all a hidden cute place in tavares worth checking out. There's not enough love for this little town so come visit and enjoy. read more

Loved this place. Great ambiance, great appetizers, great service. We will definitely go there again. Awesome b read more

A must see when in Tavares! Cozy atmosphere and fun drink selections. Go inside and be surprised with how it has been designed!

Wow! We walked by here almost a year ago and swore we would pop in. Little did we know, our boat would break down and it would take until now to get to go back to Tavares again. So glad we made the trip! The Argonaut is well decorated like the inside of a spacious submarine, with manholes looking into a coral reef at a lot of the tables. The menu boasts bar snacks and pre-fixed cocktails, including a delicious tiki drink menu with fun glasses! Service is fast and kind. We can't wait to go back and sit in one of the two secluded booths that remind me of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. read more

The Argonaut Bar and Lounge - Lounges Near Me - Tavares, Florida

Bartender was nice, the server was terrible. Took 40 minutes to get our drinks. Won't go back.

Visiting family in Tavares and was looking for a place to go hang out with another couple in town. Saw the pictures and was intrigued. This place did not disappoint. The location was small and intimate. Service was great and friendly. Be aware that many of the wine cocktails leaned towards the sweet side which the husbands enjoyedI I was very impressed by the Spanish wine + coke mix! Who would have thought this would taste good! I leaned more towards the dry red side and very much enjoyed the quantum leap cab. The appetizers were surprisingly tasty and all seems like they were made fresh. The lighting and jazzy music were fitting and wrested a great atmosphere. This will definitely be the go to place when we come back for another visit. read more

This place gets five stars just for the cool factor! It's a little intimidating to open the door because you can't see anything from outside. Once you enter you realize immediately that you are in a very unique environment. Very limited menu but what we tried was good. Certainly designed to be where the cool people hang lol. We'll be back read more

Very limited options. A place for tourists to get a specialty drink in a funky cup. Interesting family history.

Was excited to try this spot and it did not disappoint! Gives you an intimate lounge feel with a nautical theme. Great for date night, girl's night or even just a couple of friends wanting to get together and not get drowned by loud music. My friend and I ordered the charcuterie board and glasses of Prosecco and Sav Blanc. The experience was unique and the bartenders were very attentive! Can't wait to come back and try their new specialty cocktails! read more

The Argonaut Bar and Lounge - Charcuterie board - Lounges Near Me - Tavares, Florida

Very nice, service, and atmosphere was perfect . Third time going in makes for a really nice place to finish your evening off.

What a fun experience! My husband and I came here for a chill date night, and this was such a wonderful spot! We tried the Abyss which comes bubbling in a beaker, and not only was the presentation so fun, it tasted great too! We also tried a beer on tap each so we could watch them reverse fill. For food we tried the Black and White Chips which were a perfect snack pairing with our drinks. The theming here is unmatched, and everything was delicious! Daniel made our experience even more enjoyable. He sat down next to us and told us the story of the Argonaut, and was so personable in every way. I want to bring all my friends here! So excited to have such a cool place in our little town. read more

NOT a cocktail bar. It's a wine bar. Vodka and tequila "cocktails" are just wine based drinks. That would be fine if that was communicated somehow (signage, verbally, written on the menu). Deceptive and unethical. One star for the atmosphere. . . Try and find anything that mentions this on site or on the website. It's not hard - WINE BAR. There, fixed it. read more

Upscale, cool new place to have a drink in Tavares. Very dark inside and decorated with a submarine/under water feel. Comfortable seating with interesting wine and beer concoctions, served in creative ways. (No liquor). Good spot for a drinks date. Great service. However, the food was sub-par and overpriced. read more

Had a great time last night I had a couple appetizers and a charcuterie board with my wife as a surprise. Great atmosphere was able to carry on a conversation with my wife Coming back with friends thanks guys read more

Such a relaxing quaint place. Love the decor, so different. The bartenders are friendly, they make you feel comfortable soon as you walk through the door. The wine, beer, appetizers are fantastic and different. We will definitely return. No place like it anywhere close and being on the the lake is a plus. read more

I've been here twice now and to their awesome sister company coffee shop "The Nautical" (also great) and I love this place! It is a beer and wine bar which I don't usually like but they are more than that. The atmosphere is awesome as everyone says and the service is always great. The bar tender Danielle is so personable and great at giving recommendations. I love their selection and creativity with the wines. Great prices for drinks imo. Love the beer cheese and pretzel small plate. I wish they had more options or a few more "average" options for appetizers but I'll settle for the pretzels haha. Totally recommend this place! read more
