“We went in for beers and pub food and were so impressed! We began with the shareable brussel sprout appetizer. The char was perfect! Then we shared a Caesar salad. It was fresh and tasty. The biggest surprise was the brass tap classic pizza. Excellent quality! We loved the way the pepperonis were crispy. I thought the Italian sausage was some of the best I've ever had on a pizza and my husband and I were fighting over the crust. It was so good!“

“This was our first time here and I can say that it was really pleasant.

First, our server Shannon was very attentive and reassuring in all our ordering and post clean up. She was prompt in being us our drinks and had a very well feel for how her tables, including, ours were doing throughout our time under her service. Shannon did a great job overall.

I had a standard margarita and it was delicious. Their bear and drinks collection is refreshing and just a nice Lager for the price . Our party enjoyed each of their cocktails, the bartender definitely knows what they're doing.

Overall the experience was definitely a high A+ and every thing was great.

Will be back for sure!“

Big Cypress Grill Restaurant & Tavern American • $
1298 Big Cypress Blvd, Lakeland

“I can't really give much of a review on the food. I only had a basic house salad and small French fry. The lettuce was crisp & tasted fresh. I wasn't crazy about the French dressing. The fries were good but greasy. I had a ginger ale & usually love ginger ale. I didn't even drink half of the one I ordered. Most likely the brand and not their fault. I'll just see if I can bring my own from now on. Schweppes is the way to go 👍
I was there for a Valentine theme to decorate art. It was a lot of fun and gave me a chance to see the grill as I hadn't yet been up there. It's very spacious but extremely loud. And that was without music. They have a bar that I'd love to check out soon. It looked well equipped and stocked. The lady that waited on our table was great & I hate that I didn't get her name. I look forward to going back soon.“

“We came for a Celebration of Life for a special person that came here on occasion. We had a great time. Tap beer was as cold as it gets & the magnificent bar server even chilled the glasses before filling with wine. I wish I knew her name. I haven't shot pool in a few decades (pool costs $.25 last I played) & had fun shooting with a local named Bee. If we lived closer, we'd be back. Only drawback is the smell of smoke.“

“A few days after Christmas during holiday break me and my husband wanted to take the kids out to eat. We don’t usually do this because my son has autism gets laughing seizures in crowds tries to get naked everywhere we go and sometimes has episodes where he pretty much just wants to hit everyone around him and himself. It’s just extremely hard. We went to Buffalo wild wings first just to feel it out and see if it was possible it wasn’t the people weren’t accommodating looked at us weird when we tried to explain and we just left. We stopped by Chili’s to try Sam the manager was extremely helpful and considerate she hesitate to try and help my server was also awesome everyone there was so nice. I feel like we have a safe place to go now thanks. They found us a table that was perfect for us and we for once didn’t feel like a bother. It was pretty great. Merry Christmas and happy New Year’s this spot is GREAT 👍🏼“
