50 Best Bars in Orlando

“Yummy food and margaritas!“

“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!“

“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!“

“So good! Def going again..“

[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 .“

“Came here for the Mexico vs South Korea game and it did not disappoint. The place was packed and they were not taking walkins (we got lucky and scored a seat at the bar)

If you know there’s a game going on, please make a reservation.

The food was amazing and the prices were fair for the amount of food. I’ll be back for sure!“

“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!“

“I went for my first time yesterday and Dick’s Last Resort is something alright. I LOVEDD THIS EXPERIENCE , Y’all just be prepared to be embarrassed and talked about ( jokingly of course ). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“justin makes the best expresso martinis“

“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 🤩“

“I had an amazing time at ICEBAR Orlando! The ice sculptures were incredible, and the atmosphere inside the ice bar was unlike anything I've experienced before! The furry coats and gloves kept us comfortable in the cold temperature while we enjoyed drinks served in ice glasses. The Fire Lounge was the perfect place to warm up afterward, with great music and a fun bar. If you're looking for a unique night out in Orlando, this is the place.“

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

“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.“

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

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

“El lugar me encanto es super cool y no pagas entrada.

I thought the place was amazing. It has a lot of retro touches, like Mario Bros games you can play, which makes the atmosphere really fun. I absolutely loved the decor.

The drinks are tasty and affordable, and there is no entrance fee. The bartenders were super friendly and welcoming.“

“fabulous place to eat, and drink. Food was delicious, fresh made and the service was excellent.“

“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.“

“Tori is the best! Service was fast and friendly. The beer was cold, the band was hot and the whole place rocks. I’ll be back.“

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

“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! 🍻🎶“

“Though The Muddy Root’s menu is already hard to beat, the real magic lies in the staff here. It doesn’t matter what day you come in; you’ll always be met by someone warm, welcoming, and ready to explain anything you’d like to know about their WIDE variety of menu items. If you’re not a kava or kratom person, this cafe offers a coffee and tea menu that’s highly customizable. Whatever you’re looking for- something sweet, something strong, something refreshing- the kavatenders (their “bartenders”) will always know how to make it happen. Even when my drink doesn’t taste right the first time (which rarely happens), the staff is beyond happy to add or substitute anything so that it’s just what I want. A literal 2-minute drive from UCF (and right between two major UCF apartments), this is an amazing study spot. Plenty of outlets and a variety of seating, plus free WiFi (after ordering). Plenty of students, professionals, and hobbyists work here, so it’s a productive environment. If you’re looking for a more social atmosphere, they also host social events all throughout the month, from trivia and AYCD kava nights to karaoke and even nature hikes! If I could rate The Muddy Root on a scale of 1 to 10, I’d give them an 11. A definite must-try!“

“Great place Great food highly recommended“

“Great drinks and dessert! Wonderful atmosphere as well“

“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!“

“Walter's Tavern is one of the best College Park bars if you're looking for a relaxed atmosphere, friendly service, and great drinks. The entire staff always makes you feel welcome, the crowd is fun, and it's an easy place to unwind after work or meet up with friends. If you're searching for a great bar in College Park, I definitely recommend stopping by Walter's Tavern!“

“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.“

“Liz absolutely MADE our night at Aku Aku! From the second we sat down, she brought the best energy — so personable, welcoming, and genuinely fun to talk to.

Not only were the drinks delicious, but the presentation and attention to detail were next level.

Aku Aku already has such a fun atmosphere, but Liz was the reason our experience stood out so much. Amazing service, incredible drinks, and the kind of bartender that makes you want to come back every time you’re in Orlando. Could not recommend her enough!“

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

“This will be one of our go to restaurants to visit when we vacation in Orlando! My 11 year old daughter loved the art and the whole vibe she said it gave her some inspiration in her art and coloring when we left. Not to mention the food was excellent! Great atmosphere and food!“

“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!!!“

“We don’t venture downtown Orlando much these days. Unfortunately, the city leaders have been slowly destroying what was my late night home in college. But we happened to be down there for a concert at the Dr Phillips center and had a chance to check Nuri’s out finally!

Vibe was so great. You can see the thoughtful design all throughout the restaurant. We loved the quirky setting and the food was just as good.

Authentic bar pies are not something common in Orlando yet here we are. We enjoyed the cracker crust and balance of cheese and sauce.

Great food and staff made an amazing cocktail! Hope to be back here again, unless the City of Orlando runs these great people out like they have so many other awesome spots.“

“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 recently had the pleasure of dining at Maggiano's Little Italy in Orlando on International Drive and it was an experience worth sharing. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly by the hostess, who promptly seated us at a cozy table that perfectly set the tone for the evening. The waitstaff was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. They made sure our glasses were never empty and checked in just the right amount to ensure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. For the main course, we chose the Chicken Parmesan, which was cooked to perfection with a crispy exterior and tender, juicy chicken inside. The pasta was al dente, and the meat sauce was rich and savory. It was really enough for two people to share. To top it all off, they brought two plates of their famous lemon cookies to our table, to celebrate our third anniversary. Overall, our experience at Maggiano's was nothing short of excellent. The combination of outstanding service, a welcoming atmosphere, and delicious food made for a memorable evening. I highly recommend Maggiano's for anyone looking to enjoy a wonderful Italian meal with top-notch service.“

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

“The Falcon is the best vibe and you might get to see Lulu the Mayor! What more can you ask for? Great chill vibe and always the most interesting people to talk to at the Falcon. They do community work by having the Lulu calendar and Lulu's birthday party which raises money for homeless cats and I appreciate them doing that ❤️ Love the Falcon and so should you 😄“

“Excellent restaurant, delicious food and the best service!“

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

“I’ve been coming to the wellborn for over a year now almost every week. It is an amazing place with a great atmosphere and it’s extremely pretty. Personally Greg is the best server ever. Everyone is great but if you get a chance to meet Greg he is one of the nicest people ever and he is one of the strongest people on the team without a doubt.“

“I was looking for live music and loved my night at Howl at the Moon Orlando! The dueling pianos were a blast—nonstop energy, and they played many of my favorite songs and a few new ones. The staff was super friendly and had some great non-alcoholic drink options. The smallest drink was enough for me, so it was a good value for a night of blissful entertainment. The crowd was so much fun, including a few international tourists dancing around and just adding to the good times. It is the perfect spot for a lively night out. I can’t wait to come back!“

“Came here with a Resort Pass and had a blast at the pool area. All servers were super attentive and the drinks and food was delicious. Will definitely be returning! Highly recommend a Resort Pass to spend the day at the pool and enjoy all the amenities. :)“

“Manager Ashley extremely polite and honest. She told me it would take almost 2hrs due my party of 12 people. She made it happen in less than 2hrs. Honestly the gold star, cherry on top, going above and beyond goes to Hannah from Maine! She served all of us with straight professionalism and top tier customer service. With all my family she handled us like she can do this in her sleep! The service she provided is something that will always bring back parties this large or more because her detail in our needs were always met.

The Yard House does it all. Great service from all staff. Great drinks. Great food. Only thing I can complain for is that I wish it was bigger.“

“The Hopping Pot is a great stop when you’re not quite ready for a full meal but want to grab a drink and relax. It’s the perfect place to take a break while still soaking in the atmosphere.
The hot Butterbeer is our favorite—absolutely delicious and a must-have, especially on cooler days. We always make a point to stop here.“

“I absolutely love this place. Everytime I stop in there everyone is so nice and makes me feel right at home and like I'm top priority. The vibe is amazing and time flies because you get so caught up with all the interesting people and staff there. I wanna say an extra special thanks to the wonderful young lady behind the bar there, Stephanie. She went above and beyond to make sure I was well taking care of and never let my glass go empty. If you're looking for a laid back spot to have fun this is your place.“

“One of my favorite local places. Service is always fabulous!“

“Cool venue in a neat part of town. These are some of the best meads I’ve ever had and I drink a lot of mead. Bold. Flavorful. Delicious. I wanted to try everything!!“

“My husband and I ate here tonight. The service was superb, the food was delicious and authentic, the atmosphere was very welcoming. The best lasagna I’ve ever eaten! The drinks and appetizers were delicious. Our server was very helpful. We hope to come back on our trip this time, but certainly will come back the next trip. Highly recommend“

“I must say I had a great time here! The Dj was great and the service was great as well! I have to give a special thanks to the bartender Brooke. She was always looking out and making sure I never was in need! She also was super nice! Looking forward to soon becoming a regular if the vibes stay this great!!!“

“Good cocktails on happy hour“
