50 Best Bars in Orlando

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

“Yummy food and margaritas!“

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

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

“Jackie was our waitress today at Nona Blue. Jackie has waited on us before, because we go to Nona Blue quite often. Is my family‘s favorite restaurant in the area, and has been for many years. Jackie is the best waitress ever. She is not only cute and sweet and fun, but she is a very hard worker. She completely takes care of her people. She genuinely cares, and will do everything to make your experience perfect. Thank you, Jackie for making Nona Blue so great!!!!“

“I've been lucky to never encounter a long line here during normal leasing m operating hours.

I usually get butter beer, hot and cold, and can easily find a seat in or outside. The staff is awesome and is a great retreat from the heat.“

“Great atmosphere and great steak!!“

“We went for the sama sama set menu — five courses of unique and delicious food. Servers and bar staff are super friendly. Fantastic food in a friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend.“

“Best Christmas Cocktails for the start to our Christmas Party 2022! Working with Hurst was fun and he made recommendations that were a success.“

“Clearly, paying for a flaming Moe is just for novelty. They couldn't make the actual one from the show so they decided to put dry ice under orange soda. It's still fun to say you had a flaming moe at moe's tavern.

They offer other drinks including Duff beer. All duff is good, but my favorite is Duff-tober fest. Inside the bar you can try the love machine and take a pic with Barney. It's great fun and great escape from the heat.“

“Good cocktails on happy hour“

“We had an amazing time at Keg Social Orlando celebrating a birthday! We enjoyed bowling, axe throwing, and the arcade, which provided hours of fun. The venue offers something for everyone, regardless of age—our group ranged from 11 to 41 years old, and everyone had a blast. The food and drinks from the bar were fresh and delicious, and the DJ kept the party atmosphere lively. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making our experience even better. Highly recommend for a fun and memorable outing for all ages!“

“We were in Florida for several days and I ended up here every day trying something for dinner. There were so many people that made our experience amazing but the person that made the experience extra special was Sanchez. Fantastic recommendations and the drink that he recommended was amazing. (Just ask for the Sanchez) Wonderful food (Diana at the ceviche bar) and atmosphere with the deck (even with the heat) was amazing. I will definitely be returning.“

“The food was great. Definitely ShinJung quality. But our waitress, Hailey, was what made the experience everything it was. She was friendly and attentive. She went above and beyond to make sure we had a great first time here and had an excellent handle on the menu.“

“A One-Stop Spot for Food, Coffee, and Fun Vibes!

Orlando Milkhouse is such a hidden gem! It brings together three amazing spots all under one roof — Milkhouse for food and cocktails, Foxtail Coffee, and an awesome little ice cream shop. I got to try all three and loved every bit of it.

I ordered the DK Onion Smashburger and added tomatoes from Milkhouse, and it was delicious — juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. I followed it up with an espresso martini, which was the perfect way to sample Foxtail's coffee in cocktail form — smooth and well-balanced.

Of course, we had to grab ice cream, and it did not disappoint. I mean, when is ice cream ever a bad idea? The flavors were rich and creamy, and they weren't shy on the scoop.

The interior was definitely a vibe — fun, stylish, and perfect for hanging out or grabbing pics. I almost forgot to mention they have an event calendar for the month as well! Whether you're there for a quick coffee, a great meal, or just a sweet treat, Milkhouse has something for everyone. Highly recommend checking it out!“

“Valeria was a wonderful server. She was very attentive to special requests and food restrictions needs due to allergies. The food was excellent too. Get the trifasico and ask for all the sauces!“

“Food was surprisingly flavorful!“

“Have a flaming moe, take a pic with barney, and try the live machine. Then knock back duff beers while deciding what you want to between chicken and burgers.

This is a fans paradise! I wish they had an actual Moe bartender and prank phone calls, that would make this spot perfect.“

“Nos gustó mucho, pedimos clvarios platos, lo único que nos encontramos poca cantidad es en los Chicharrones bites en comparación precio-porcion. pero muy rica la comida y buen servicio.“

“Backwater Bar is co-located with Confisco restraunt. This is a great place to walk in and get you H2O water or you favorite adult beverage. It is a full service walk up bar with lots of beer, wine, and they can make the liquor drink of your choice. There is no seating inside, but they have shaded seating just outside the door. The staff is friendly and want you to have a nice experience.“

“Wine and I stopped in for drinks before the event at the Amway and went back for food to go and more drinks. 🍺 amazing food friendly staff and cold drinks. We will deff be back.“

“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 .“

“Such a great place with great drink menu, awesome kitchen, and really cool industrial setting. Staff are really friendly and helpful. Everything from the kitchen was excellent, and you can tell the chef really puts a lot of care and thought into crafting dishes that are much better than your standard bar food while still complementing the pub vibe. Food comes out based on whatever is up first, so things we’d had in mind as entrees came out earlier than what we’d had in mind as starters. Just made for a little bit of an adventure!“

“The best place in America for a fallout/madmax fan to grab a delicious drink for a few caps! The nukacola quantum is to die for and the guzzaline is the bomb! And the decore is absolutely top notch! Best birthday ever! My gf (DD) was able to get the guzzaline non alcoholic which I also tried, it was very delicious. The quantum was the perfect amount of strong and smooth! Great for alcoholic and non alcoholic drinkers everywhere! 10/10“

“We stumbled upon Ice Bar Orlando quite randomly after catching a basketball game, and I’m so glad we did! Looking for a unique bar experience to cap off our night, we found exactly what we were hoping for.

From the moment we walked in, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They were attentive and eager to share their recommendations, which added to the overall positive vibe of the place. The drinks? Absolutely amazing! Each one was crafted with care and creativity, and we loved trying different cocktails.

The ice bar itself is what truly sets this place apart. The chilly atmosphere and cool ice sculptures create a one-of-a-kind environment that you won’t find anywhere else. However, I highly recommend wearing the jacket or renting a fur coat if you decide to visit—I thought I could tough it out without one, but let’s just say it was freezing! 😂 It’s all part of the fun, though, and definitely adds to the unique experience.

Overall, Ice Bar Orlando is a cool, quirky spot that’s perfect for a night out with friends or a fun date night.“

“I love this place the vibes are immaculate the drinks are AMAZING. I LOVE the menu because of how user friendly it is, it tells you anything and everything you need to know about the drinks. My favorite part was my bartender Pieter he was so friendly and funny and made sure my partner and I were comfortable with our drinks and I would 10/10 return with a million more people!“

“Great drinks and dessert! Wonderful atmosphere as well“

“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.“

“This is an awesome place to go! We were within walking distance from our hotel and needed to get some food and drinks… this was the PERFECT choice!“

“Didn’t have food other than popcorn so can’t really rate that. Stopped down for the Bills game. All of the servers were super patient with all of our fans, and Jo was awesome with us. Great bartender and we had a fabulous time!! Go Bills!

Parking: Parking is similar to most downtown locations - street or garage

Kid-friendliness: Not really kid-friendly. Definitely a bar atmosphere“

“Loved the 80’s theme…very cool place. But why no 80’s/90’s music? The place would be packed if you had old school dance music to match the 80’s vibe.“

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

“I came here to just relax and get some studying in ! The staff was so attentive to my needs the whole time ! This is the perfect place to come when you just wanna have a day of relaxation and resetting from a long week . 10 out of 10 recommend from the good music cigars and bar selection you can’t go wrong !“

“Went here yesterday for football sunday and was taken care of by shayla. She was super nice, and all the girls were working super hard and made my group and I very happy! Thank you shayla, madi, and gwen. You guys are great and will be seeing me next sunday for some more wings and beer B).“

“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.“

“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 love this place there is always good live music, good drinks, karaoke, also food, sometimes bingo music games, and very good atmosphere for friends who love live music and want to have a great time!, I recommend this place 💯“

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

“My first visit and I found a very welcoming crowd. Everyone was polite and respectful of others. Drinks were strong af just like I like. Pet friendly and many TVs for your sports watching pleasure. The food is supplied by 3rd party businesses ,no food prepared by bar.“

“The vibe is vibing. Loved the knowledge about all the goods. The games are fun!!!“

“If you’re in Orlando and looking for a truly unique night out, Cocktails & Screams is an absolute must. From the moment you walk in, you're transported into an immersive haunted speakeasy filled with theatrical details, killer cocktails, and spooky-chic vibes.

The drinks are as creative as they are strong, the staff is incredibly fun, and the ambiance is unlike anything else downtown. Perfect for locals, tourists, and anyone looking to elevate their nightlife experience.
This is the kind of hidden gem that deserves a spot on every travel itinerary — whether you’re here for business, pleasure, or just passing through.

“Anyone give this place less than a five star probably an a* h*. Which is fine not all people are great anyway. Cheers of Orlando, Excellent Atmosphere, great musicians all true American style, Business culture shows that the ownership is not looking at you as a mere transaction but a cherished companion. This is evident thru the dedication and longevity of their staff some of whom working here like 20 years and they are still passionate of what they do. Whether you are all by yourself or on a date or celebrating birthday this is the place will make your day memorable. Truly affordable menu in town also makes me feel like the owners treating this like a community service more than a business. Real girls working here whom have a true beautiful smile that resembles the warmth and kindness that resides within their heart instead of a mere facade to attract more people to come. Even at the first time you step inside, familiarity and safe feeling washes over you like you have always been there. Great job guys, we, trully appreciate that you choose us as a customer. Thank you.“

“ci si rilassa si può mangiare qualcosa e divertirsi con gli amici. buon locale“

“Was great fun! Recommend completely.“

“I eat and drink in this neighborhood a lot. Keep your expectations low and a positive attitude, and you're certain to have a great time. People love to dress up, so expect to run into some Dolly Partons and roller blading Barbies and Ken's. Happiest happy hour often includes two for one mid-shelfs and tacos. An excellent deal tbh. If you're into Irish food (I'm not), there's a lot of that, but I recommend heading to the pub around the corner for bigger portions. The beer pong table often leads to heated exchanges, so if you can't handle Ws and Ls, please miss it.“

“Went there for open mic Tuesday. It's mostly a comedy event with a few musicians. It's a small but great venue at a great place. The audience was amazing and added to the atmosphere. The only negative is the limited options for non alcoholic beverages.“

“Didn't even know this place existed until my wife and I walked by. We are fans of The Strand so it's no surprise that we love this place too. I've only had the wasabi deviled eggs so far and they are some of the best things I've ever consumed. I also had the Nickles and Dimes cocktail which was right up my alley. Definitely coming back“

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

“We stopped in tonight- happy hour drinks, great food and friendly staff!“

“Julia was AMAZING! By far the best bartender i’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting, certainly will come back based on her customer service alone. Julia has an inviting personality & made us feel very welcomed. Will be back!!!“
