50 Best Bars near Maitland

“We love coming to Eden Bar for a cocktail and some bites! The service can sometimes be slow so be prepared and don't go when in a huge hurry, but the food is tasty, the servers friendly and the drinks lovely! They do fun holiday cocktails as well which I highly recommend. They are also dog friendly and the workers know our dogs and always come say hi. Love this place.“

“We love this venue! 😁💕 I could write an essay about how much fun we have at Good Times, but will try to keep it short - They have fantastic live music bands to dance to on the weekends, a beautiful, wooden dance floor, a terrific variety of food and drinks, wonderful, friendly staff and the owners are super attentive and sociable. During the week, they offer an interesting line-up of different events; from beginner partner dance lessons, a D.J.’s Music, “Ladies Night”, and more live music on certain days of the month. They’re always mixing it up and keeping things interesting and there’s always something going on! They have a large group of regular patrons, us included, and when you get there, it feels like everybody knows your name! 😁🎉🤩👍💕🎶 If you haven’t figured it out by now, we highly recommend giving this place a visit. 😁👍“

“excellent restaurant in every way 😎👍 highly recommend“

“I recommend the bar outside w Steph. I haven’t watched a movie here in years so I am not educated enough to give a review on that. Now, the bar outside has arguably the best bartender in the area and abroad. Steph is the bomb. Followed her from another establishment to this location. Amazing person, and great bartender. Also, Matt is the bomb.“

“Anyone who gives this place less than 5 stars must also not like beautiful sunsets. They are the type of people that hate babies and puppies you know.
The food, amazing
The service, felt like I was at my Italian grandmother's.
The atmosphere, similar to a 7 day paid vacation.
I can't give this place enough kudos.
Only negative is the the food is too good and ruins every other restaurant in the area.
This place is a gem.“

“One of the best nightlife spots in orlando! The cocktails are amazing, the vibe is so fun, everyone is dancing, the lights give such a fun atmosphere and everyone is so nice! Especially Christian, he made all our drinks and they were amazing!!!“

“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 🤩“

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

“Casey’s on Central is hands down one of the best spots in downtown Orlando! The vibe is always great, the drinks are strong, and the music keeps the energy going all night. Every single bartender here is top-tier — they’re fast, friendly, and always make you feel welcome. You can tell they genuinely care about giving everyone a good time. Whether you’re starting your night or ending it, Casey’s is always the move!“

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

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

“Great drinks and dessert! Wonderful atmosphere as well“

“If you're looking for that perfect low-key, no-fuss Friday night spot, The Toper Taproom & Ziggie’s Pizza is it. This cozy little dive bar hits the sweet spot between relaxed and lively — think eclectic beer list, boutique wines, and a crowd that feels more like neighbors than strangers.

The pizza? Surprisingly good — crispy, cheesy, and perfect with whatever cold drink you’re sipping. There’s a rotating selection of beers (local faves and offbeat finds) that’ll please both hop heads and casual sippers. Add in some nice wine options and you’ve got choices for everyone.

The outdoor seating is a major plus too — perfect for late-night convos and people-watching. This place has real character. Whether you're catching up with an old friend or making new ones at the bar, it’s got that kind of vibe you wish more places had. Definitely a go-to chill nook in the neighborhood.“

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

“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 .“

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

“One of my new favorite bars in Orlando and prob my favorite place to drink in the College Park area, customer service is always great, the bartenders and the managers are very attentive and walk around the bar checking by on people. It is attached to the a big food hall, so you have plenty of choice for food. They show almost every sporting event including UFC so its great for sports fans. I only wish the bar could be bigger but they did great with the space they have!“

“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.“

“We came in on a trivia night, which was unbeknownst to us ahead of time. The trivia host was engaging and fun, and the facility was clean with nice pool tables. Our bartender, Matt, made wonderful local beer recommendations and was attentive and friendly. Any company would be lucky to have him. Lastly, the beer selection was fantastic and properly geared towards Irish brews. Very happy to have stopped by!“

“I fully recommend 480N Wine Bar as a wonderful new addition to Winter Park Village. If you're doing some shopping, grabbing dinner or catching a movie, 480N Wine Bar is the perfect spot to grab a pre or post drink/cocktail. I visited with my husband upon their grand opening. I do not drink, but the staff went above and beyond find and/or make something nonalcoholic for me to drink. While their non-alcoholic suggestions sounded great, I actually chose a craft soda and ever since I am obsessed and will be returning for one soon! :)“

“Good ambiance, wish the menu for food and tapas had more options.“

“This place has always been consistent. From the welcome at your entrance, to the service at the bar. The food is phenomenal. The atmosphere is cozy and even if it’s your first visit, it feels nostalgic and warm. These types of places are fleeting these days. Stop in for genuine hospitality.“

“My brother is a tiki fanboy, so when we travel to interesting destinations, we always seek out a good tiki bar. This place was very interesting. Kinda local, small feel and vibe. Our bartender and tiki expert was top notch, super friendly and gave us some locals only tips about other fun spots to see while in Orlando. We tried quite a selection of different offerings, all of which were well prepared and tasty! We will be back, thanks!“

“Saw this place on TikTok and decided to give it a try! Everything ended up being fresh, flavorful, and really well prepared. The Caesar salad was crisp with a generous amount of dressing, cheese and breadcrumbs, and the pizza was thin, light and cheesy.
The atmosphere felt relaxed and laidback, which made it easy to enjoy the meal without feeling rushed. Overall a great experience and definitely somewhere I’d come back to try more from the menu.“

“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 ❤️❤️❤️“

“I celebrated my birthday here last night and had a blast. I got a tarot card reading and made a painting. The drinks were good. I loved the overall vibe and of course the kitty. We were able to bring food in from across the street. I will definitely be back!“

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

“I have been a Hideaway fan for years! I was so happy to see that they were able to move across the street (from construction, that forced them out) but continued with the same great local friendly atmosphere 💕
Our doodles love the dog menu“

“Paddy's Pub is a fantastic spot! They've got a ton of darts, great pool tables, and Golden Tee. The bar is well-stocked, there's plenty of space, and the atmosphere is really great. Had a good time here and will definitely be back and try the food. Tuesday had $1 wing special.“

“Great service, very friendly and clean atmosphere.Tge owner is very courteous.“

“Good cocktails on happy hour“

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

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

“Best dance floor in Orlando and best service.“

“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.“

“The Other Bar is a downtown Orlando staple located on Wall Street, surrounded by a cluster of other bars. The name isn’t just clever—it’s called The Other Bar because it’s the only bar on that stretch owned by a different owner, which already gives it a bit of its own identity.

This place is very much a local favorite, and for good reason. I’m a fan of the complimentary popcorn (simple pleasures matter), and while the bathrooms might look a little scary at first glance, they’re generally clean—which honestly puts them ahead of many dive bars downtown that barely qualify as functional.

The space itself is bigger than it initially appears, almost deceiving when you first walk in. Over the years, the interior has seen steady upgrades, and it shows. The stage is well lit, and every Monday I frequent their open mic—an event that’s been running for decades and continues to be a cornerstone of the local comedy scene.

There’s also an outdoor patio and bar area, which adds a nice option when the weather cooperates. One moment that really stood out to me was Thanksgiving, when they hosted a Friendsgiving and fed all the comedians who regularly perform there. It was genuinely generous and speaks volumes about how much this place values its community.

All around, The Other Bar feels familiar in the best way—a reliable, welcoming spot that supports local talent and keeps evolving without losing its soul. It’s a place I return to often and one I’m glad still exists downtown.“

“Had w wonderful birthday dinner tonight! Delicious!“

“Always welcoming environment with kavatenders that are like family. Great atmosphere for studying or hanging with friends. Drinks are super tasty as well. 100% recommendation 👍“

“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!! 😊“

“Was a fun dingy place to play. Perfect for a punk show although a very tight squeeze. I'm not sure what food was offered, but basic variety of beers that you cannot go wrong with.

Vegetarian options: Idk.

Dietary restrictions: Idk

Parking: All up and down the avenue. The parking is spread out pretty well!

Kid-friendliness: Don't think you're going to get kids inside LOL.

Wheelchair accessibility: The entire space is one room so you will definitely be fine wheeling in.“

“Came here for a galentines brunch. This place is very unique. Feels like you’re at a vintage home with different rooms and sitting areas. We sat outdoors. The ordering process is super cool. You order on your phone and the wait staff knows where to bring your order. Cool music, nice vibes. The food and drinks were delicious. Staff was great. Five stars for sure!“

“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.“

“🏄‍♂️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.

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

“good place and good friends“

“Our event was a success ! Great and friendly staff and service.“

“We need more places like this in Orlando. I went for brunch and every single dish was amazing. The ingredients were fresh, and the menu is very well designed—small, but full of intentional plates. The restaurant is beautiful, perfect for sitting outside and enjoying the nice weather.“

“I went there for 90's party.“

“We stopped in here for HH cocktails and oysters before dining at The Strand. I had the Jaguar’s Nap. If you like mezcal, you’ll love this drink. The oysters were delicious, too. It was a great find.
I also left my very expensive Gucci sunglasses at the table and the server found us after our exit to return them. That was very honorable of him.“
