50 Best Bars near Altamonte Springs

“I came here one evening after work with some coworkers. We wanted a nice, chill pub atmosphere with some good food. We found that here at St. Andrews. Ambiance was great. Seat yourself, a little schlubby building with only a few, dark windows. I loved it. Felt like real Britain. Service was good. The guy was super nice, and the food all came out timely and hot. No worries there.

I was also super impressed and pleased that they had a Guinness 0.0 available in a can. I've been told it's nothing like the real thing, but I thought it was pretty darn good.

As for the food, it was dynamite.

Started off with a simple Chips & Curry Sauce. Very nicely fried fries with a heaping helping of a thick curry sauce. A very mild sauce that was good on pretty much anything. I finished the fries and kept the sauce around for subsequent courses.

I then had a Sausage Roll & Crisps. The roll was great. Super flakey pastry enveloped a very nice, well-seasoned sausage that had a good snap to it with every bite. Delicious.

Then, my main event, a Home-Made Meat Pie (Steak & Mushroom, Served with Chips and Garden Peas). Check the picture. It wasn't a pie pie like I was expecting, but the filling was really deep and umami in the way only steak and mushroom can be. The pastry was, again, really good, and I subbed the chips for onion rings, and they were crispy and dipped really well in that curry sauce.

Overall, this was a nice, simple, delicious experience that did a good job bringing us coworkers together for some good camaraderie.“

“Great little dive spot...one of those places where you're celebrated as you walk in the door. Staff were extremely friendly and inviting, place was clean and all the patrons seemed to know one another so made you feel very welcomed and like you were a regular straight away.“

“love the food and the staff I recommend highly to everyone ❤️ always a great meal and love the owners truly the best !“

“Good bar, and good people“

“Good food,very friendly staff.So nice“

“I saw a person, going to different tables, and I was not sure if it was a he or she, as it was the body of a men, but the face was made up to be a woman. I assume he was a transgender? The waitress informed me that he was the Manager, and he was just expressing himself. A restaurant is not the place to do this. I will be writing to the Company. This was totally disgusting to see a Manager of a restaurant acting out.“

“the food is great and the Tequila selection even better!!!!“

“First time at Alfie’s & Christian really took care of us! My friend and I didn’t want alcohol and wanted just a nice mocktail. Christian really asked questions on what we liked & made sure drink was good!!! The music was really good vibes too! I’ll absolutely come back & bring my friends to ALFIE’S!“

“Went here for the first time yesterday. Great atmosphere. The bloody Mary’s and staff were awesome. We will definitely be returning“

“I was recently in this place and I attended Laura Londono. Thank you Laura for such a professional and pleasant service. The restaurant from feeling proud to have someone like you. [Original] estuve hace poco en este lugar y me atendio Laura Londono .Gracias laura por tan profesional y agradable servicio .El restaurante dede sentirse orgulloso de tener alguien como tu .“

“Very friendly staff and our server was exceptional. She was kind, knowledgeable about the menu and made great recommendations. The place was clean and the table was equipped with plenty of utensils and napkins. The food was fresh, delicious, and large portions good for sharing. The menu offers a little bit of everything except seafood. I am a seafood lover and it was a little disappointing that shrimps was the only option on the menu. The pork orderd was great, soft and full of flavor. I have to mention that the dessert menu is very small (2 items) but good. It is interesting how the tables are equipped with needed items to cook yourself options. Heads up no knives provided. They have karaoke on weekends, it was nice. There is plenty of parking and with good lighting if visiting at night time. I will come back and will recommend it to family and friends.“

“One of my favorite local hang out spots! Great reasonably priced brewed in house beers, solid cider and wine selection too. It’s kid and family friendly. Their food is SO good and the menu changes regularly. Don’t sleep on their weekend brunch 🤩“

“We just got home from a night out with family and really enjoyed the food, drinks and atmosphere. So, much fun!!“

“excellent restaurant in every way 😎👍 highly recommend“

“Loved visiting the Topher again - has been like 10 years 😱 Super nice bartender, great beer and still a terrific, laid back, serene & comfortable location. Had a pizza from Ziggies - which was perfect with our beers and that made a great, complete visit!!! Will be back again soon - sooner than 10 years!!!“

“Best spot in town. All local, all love. All of the time.“

“Rum, Rum, and more Rum. Great selection!“

“The atmosphere is relaxed, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a long day. The staff is friendly, attentive, and always provides excellent service. The drinks are well-made, the prices are fair, and the overall vibe is fun and enjoyable. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick drink or spending the evening with friends, this place is definitely worth a visit. Highly recommended! 🍻🎶“

“I went to a burlesque show last night and had a blast! The dancers, bartenders, and even the patrons were all warm and friendly! Between dances, they had music that has us vibing and nostalgic. The drinks were delicious and at a great price! Gf and I will definitely come back again!“

“Great drinks and dessert! Wonderful atmosphere as well“

“I tried the daily special—which was delicious—as well as a few other dishes from the menu, and I was extremely satisfied.“

“Late follow up but worth the wait- we came to watch England vs Argentina and had a blast. Food and atmosphere where great BUT the one person that made our visit over the top was Brook. I will return and hopefully get Brook as our server, she was awesome.
See you soon- Johnny Walker Manchester is Red- Glory Glory Man United!!“

“My friends and I went to Eden bar last night and Charlie was our server! He was amazing!!! Literally the best server I’ve ever had. He was so so so attentive and personable and kind! Our drinks were never empty! I will be coming back in hopes we have them again as our server!!! Thank you Charlie and we ❤ Enzian and Eden bar!!!“

“Love Hourglass Longwood! Incredible staff and lots of fun.“

“🏄‍♂️The Lucky Lure is an Orlando / Ivanhoe / North Orange Staple. It's your local dive--it's everything you expect and want. Cocktails in plastic cups when it's busy, glass when it's not. Open air so smoking is okay if that's your thing. Your drink strength correlates directly to how good of a conversation you can give the bartender.

🍸: I ordered a whiskey sour but got a Jack and Coke from a tipsy bartender on this day. The drink was... okay. But the memory will last a lifetime.

🌈 Overall Vibe ✨: Dive Bar, Florida-Core, Exactly What You Expect and Exactly What You Want.

“Good vibes with cool peeps and bar is fun. whether lounging on couch or chilling at bar; it's a all around good experience.“

“This place is a blast. Eat before/after, or bring your food and chill at a Hightop. A cousin in town recently told me about a similar establishment in Columbus, OH and I wanted to check one out. She found Pups Pub with a quick google search and off we went. Entry was painless and simple. Reassurances that canine patrons are vaccinated and spayed/neutered are very clear. Happy hour is more than fair. They have games on site, a really great indoor and outdoor seating areas, lots for the pups to do and they all seem to know eachother and get along great. I came without any animals and was warmly welcomed by everyone on 2 or 4 legs. I honestly had the time of my life just playing with everyone’s dogs and could have stayed there all night.“

“Had w wonderful birthday dinner tonight! Delicious!“

“Came here earlier today for the first time and I was blown away! Such small detail in everything. Feels so warm and cozy inside. The outside dining is fantastic! Our server was so attentive and super nice! 10/10 would recommend! Also food is amazing!! Natalie was such an angel ❤️❤️❤️“

“Love the atmosphere, people, and the owners and staff. Great bar, inexpensive, and karaoke Thursday and Friday nights.“

“Great atmosphere with fun people!! The service is great and the drinks are good! I can’t wait for the other half to be finished soon!! 😊“

“If I could add more stars I would
Shannon is the best vibe and I love hanging out during the day to experience it. She was literally there to replace beer before I could ever ask. Great customer service and a great place to be. I will suggest this bar to all my friends.“

“Tim and Eds’ Park Dive is the local place! Clean and friendly, “dive” is definitely tongue in cheek. Small without being cramped, you are immediately welcomed in like a friend and neighbor. There is a well-tended outside area with plenty of seating and occasional events. Prices are great but eat before you get here ‘cause there is no food. There is a nice selection of domestic a local craft beers and wines (but no liquor). Sports on tv and video games are there for entertainment, but conversation runs easy here and it’s a relaxing time.“

“Though the dessert is exceptional, the service is even better. Every time I’m in Orlando I definitely make my way to Better Than Sex. This sexy grilled cheese is to die for and that sauce they have on the side is the perfect pair. If I could just bathe in it, that would be perfect.“

“Love debs bar! The atmosphere is so fun and relaxing.“

“My husband and I went for our anniversary. The waitress was amazing, and the food was great. The waitress told us all about the food and what the origin was. We felt very comfortable and truly enjoyed ourselves. Will recommend! The chiefs are really working hard because NOTHING was left on our plates.“

“Awesome interior decor. The drinks were amazing and they encourage you to have food delivered since they don’t serve any. Service was also great. My only suggestion is to play appropriate tiki music. Les Baxter, Martin Denny, Arthur Lyman, The Tikiyaki Orchestra, The Manakooras, The Budos Band, Ike Quebec, Lords of Atlantis, etc. The right music is key. We plan on coming back. Highly recommend.“

“Here’s a polished review you can post (keeping it natural and upscale, like your style):

480 Wine Bar is such a chic and inviting spot with an amazing atmosphere and great music. It’s definitely not your typical wine bar — the entire experience feels elevated, relaxing, and unique. Hanna, the bartender, was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcomed. I absolutely loved it… officially my new favorite wine bar!“

“Twas a dark and stormy night in the 8th layer of hell the lost souls of the East know as “Orlando”. As the clouds shrouded the sky, I stumbled into this saloon for shelter from the impending Burning Rain of Death. The rake behind the counter, Garret, kindly offered me a libation to which I vehemently obliged. Before the cold glass met my lips, I was frozen in my chair by the sight of a wicked woman with fiery hair the locals know to be Winnifred. We spoke wildly into the night of spooky dino chickie nuggies, Disney +, Malibu potions, and cauldron maintenance, of course. She lent me her boOooOooOok and I would love nothing more than to return it to her, as it won’t stop staring at me. If you see her, please do let her know I would love to reconnect, and would also take her up on Billy’s number if she’s indeed done with him.“

“Good place to hang. Drink. Play pinball. Play pool. Socialize.“

“Amazing drinks, service and music. What a cool place with that old school vibe. You must go!“

“Wall Street Plaza is located across the street from the Heritage Square Park, home of the Orange County Regional History Center. It was created in 1995 as a premier entertainment complex with bars, restaurants, and nightclubs, it hosts block parties, live music, and sporting events along with special events for Halloween, New Year’s Eve, and Oktoberfest. Every weekend they have block parties on Friday and Saturday nights.

On a recent Sunday afternoon, downtown Orlando seemed pretty dead until we came upon Wall St. Plaza where all the party people were living it up. Venues are set in historic buildings and include Rivals Activity Bar, Rodeo All American Bar, Fixtion, Cantina, Warped Pour, The Monkey Bar, and the Hen House. In the middle is an open area plaza with tables and chairs where people can drink, hang out, and watch sports events on the large screens.

We came to have a drink at Bellhop which was much quieter than the activity outside but this looks like a really fun place to get food and a drink. I look forward to coming back and exploring more of the businesses.“

“really good celery! ask for the blue chz!“

“this is the best time on a Sunday afternoon.“

“Have a drink, play some darts, become family.“

“Everybody was nice the time that it says it will be ready was the time it was actually ready. It was fresh. It was hot. It was crispy. I had the right cheese to sauce to Crust ratio I think it’s the best pizza in Orlando right now. It’s gonna be hard to find a spot that’s better. I’ll be going there at least once a week now.
I recommend getting the chili sauce if your into sweet n spicy“

“Been coming here for a bit, and I have to say the food is always made with love, and the drinks are poured with heart. All the bartenders are super friendly and professional. The cooks who run food out from time to time also make sure you have everything you need to enjoy your meal.

The atmosphere is inviting and chill, yet fun, with impeccable cleanliness from the bar to the bathrooms. The food specials are a steal, and even when it gets packed, the staff communicates effectively and promptly.

Don't sleep on the Paddy's Pub sauce on your wings, the pick-your-own sample platter, the hot dog with your choice of toppings, or even the fill-you-up salads. This is a fantastic spot for a drink after work, towatch the game with friends, or just to hang out and have a bite.“

“good place and good friends“

“Wonderful new addition to the hood. Love it!!“

“Great food, great atmosphere“
