    Half pound cheeseburger and fries.
    Andy C.

    I've never been to Micanopy before, and I was looking for a table service restaurant with outdoor seating to accommodate my Covid concerns. Thankfully, this restaurant offers patio seating, so no worries there. I will mention, though, that this appears to be a maskless establishment. The server who attended me was not wearing a mask, whether outdoors or indoors. I was sitting outside snd im vaccinated, so it wasn't too much of an issue for me. However, if you're wanting to go to a restaurant where the staff wears masks, then this isn't the place for you. In terms of service, the server was actually quite friendly and knowledgeable with respect to the menu. So the service was great, no complaints there. One of the things that did disappoint me was that they only had one burger on the menu. For a restaurant that is a sports bar and grill, that one was a shocker to me. I expected to find at least two or three burger options on the menu. I only found one. They've also got several pizza options and even a T-bone steak, so the menu is a little diverse in that respect. However, I would've liked to have seen more than one burger option on the menu. When I got the burger, I was a bit underwhelmed. The burger was good, but it wasn't great. It felt like it was under-seasoned. Again, the burger was still good, but I felt like it could've been even better. I found one of their best offerings to be their breaded shrimp basket. Those shrimp are absolutely delicious! I should also mention that they make fantastic fries, which is not something that every restaurant gets right. Their beer selection is really good. I had a mango wheat ale which went down quite nicely. Very soft and smooth. So they do have great drink offerings. Overall, I found it to be a decent restaurant if you're wanting a casual table service experience in the area. I'll recommend it for dining, but I'd steer clear of the like burger that they offer. I wasn't particularly satisfied with it.

    We happened upon this little joint with a couple dead phones and empty bellies. We were so pleased with wandering into this wonderful place! A hole in the wall that is SO worth the visit. Staff were sweet as could be, Ashlyn did a great job and Kendall was also so great. The managers, Judy and her husband Harold, were beyond accommodating and so sweet to get to know and spend a few minutes with. We will absolutely stop by here any time we are in the area

    Fun bar, great live music on Fri, Sat, and Sunday, and fun staff too! Pizza is some of the best in the area! Would definitely recommend checking it out.

    What a cool place! I wish we had more time to explore it! My husband had the BLT and I had the ham and Swiss both pressed. Both were delicious! Drinks were generous and service was excellent! We'll be back and bring our friends!

    Our dinner

    Intended in just getting dinner but ended up staying until they closed. Great food. Great bartender. Great band. Super place to spend a quiet Friday night.

    UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT with new hours! Open Th-Mon at 11am until close. Live music! Hand tossed to order specialty pizzas, signature drinks & new menu options. The white pizza & stuffed shells are my favorites & desserts are great! Live music - singer/songwriters & bands will be starting in December, but will really get rolling the beginning of 2023.

    I was looking for a place to meet between Ocala and Gainesville and happened to find this place on Yelp. The reviews were pretty good so I thought I would give it a try. I called first to make sure they were open. The young man answering the phone was very polite and friendly. Good start! Upon arriving we found a cute old fashioned train depot site that must've been quite busy in its heyday. We didn't take time to visit the gift shop but will do that on our next visit. Walking in we were greeted by a friendly hostess. The place wasn't super busy so we were seated immediately. They usually have live music outside but the weather wasn't great. Service was immediate so we ordered drinks while waiting for our friends. The beer was cold and they had a full bar with a good selection of beers. Not a lot but enough to cover just about anyone's taste. When our friends arrived we ordered the fried ravioli. It was crispy and a perfect portion for four. Our dinners consisted of pizza, a calzone, and the special of the evening which was stuffed shells. When the food arrived we were very impressed. The pizza had all fresh ingredients, nothing canned. The calzone was stuffed with filling, was puffed up and cooked to a golden brown. The outside was crunchy and flaky. The stuffed shells were delicious and the sauce was perfect. We were in no hurry, and they didn't rush us. We laughed, chatted, and ate our perfect meal. Saving room for dessert, we had the cannolis and a to-die-for spumoni ice cream ball surrounded by a delicious frozen chocolate covering. What made our experience so perfect was the fact that the staff and maybe the owner? really cared about our food, our comfort, and our visit. They went out of their way to make sure every item we were served was perfect. I will be going back. Thank you Depot for a great evening!

    Entrance to a unique bar with live music, and super friendly crew.  Stop in.  You will not be sorry.

    Discovered this brand new Sports Bar featuring authentic Italian pizza along with pub food and a full bar. Spoke with Dawn who was bar-tending who gave me the history and vision of their future business. This restaurant opened in the "old Micanopy Train Station". What a wonderful building - lots of history. Well worth the drive to visit.

We were on their bottom floor patio (which was lovely) but I did spy that they have a rooftop patio as well (what's not to love?!?). Everything from the food to the cocktails to the service was exemplary. For my cocktail I got their Old Colonel's Smoking Gun which was their twist on an old fashioned and was delightful. For my entree, I got their salmon entree. It's glazed and comes with a size of their crispy brussels and cheesy grits. The brussels were delish and their cheesy grits rank among some of the best I've had with sharp cheddar giving them the perfect flavor kick. The atmosphere was so pleasant. It's definitely the sort of spot you'll feel tempted to linger. Get to it!

I'd read the reviews and they were supposed to have the coldest beer in Florida and the best burgers. What's not to like about that? When we walked in, it was as advertised, a nice little biker bar with pool tables and they do in fact have very good burgers and cold beer. We had great service, great food, great prices, and actually stayed there much longer than we planned. If we ever have to come back through this way and stay, I will definitely go back there for another great Cajun burger, and a couple of cold beers..

It is definitely a neighborhood bar and the locals are all friendly as was the bartender Melanie. There are a couple of pool tables, dart boards and a jukebox. They also had a bucket of 5 beers for $15 with five beers to choose from. I ordered the double burger with onion rings. I forgot to take a picture but the double will not fit in your mouth! It was a decent burger and much bigger than I expected. My friend got the club sandwich and it looked impressive as well. We ended up shooting pool and chatting with some of the regulars and left in the wee hours of the morning. Melanie was hustling all night as the bartender and the cook. She was on top of it all night. We were in town to scuba dive and are on to our next destination, otherwise we would have returned. Great little dive bar. Friendly staff and locals. Decent bar food.

However our food took ages to come out. The place wasn't packed and for just a few sandwiches and one small pizza and salad we waited about an hour. Not of this takes more than a few minutes to make. The prices are absurd. Very expensive for a pizza place and not worth the money. They serve your food on paper plates with plastic silverware. With how expensive the food is, that is ridiculous. The food was fine. Nothing great, nothing bad. Very high priced for what you get. The only thing making this 3 instead of 2 stars is because the food is fine.
