50 Best Bars in Orlando

“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!“

“Yummy food and margaritas!“

“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!!!“

“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!“

“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.“

[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 .“

“Brooklyn Brooklyn Brooklyn Brooklyn Brooklyn

Service was, well terrible, but that is what you come to Dick's for. Food was good and the drinks were cold. Atmosphere was great except for all the napkins all over the floor, also to be expected from Dick's charming servers.“

“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“

“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.“

“I was really looking forward to visiting this place, and overall it didn’t disappoint! I was expecting the bar itself to be a bit bigger, but the whole setup totally makes up for it. You walk into what looks like a regular store filled with cool, geeky merch, and then....surprise!!!! There’s a secret door in the back that takes you straight into the bar. That hidden speakeasy style entrance is honestly awesome and adds a lot to the experience.

The atmosphere inside is dark, creative, and full of character....definitely a spot for anyone who loves something a little different. The service was excellent too; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made the visit even better. I’d absolutely go back, especially to bring friends who haven’t been there yet.“

“Went here for NYE 2025/2026. It was a very good choice, better than other experiences we have had on NYE in Orlando. We went with a couple of friends . It ended up being about 250.00 for a couple with drinks and coat upgrades , taxes, tip, etc. overall not too bad. The staff was very good and the party was a ton of fun. Thanks for having us.“

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

“Great drinks and dessert! Wonderful atmosphere as well“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“This is classy and overall nice place to get a drink and coffee. Enjoyed cigars selection. Alex is absolutely the best person. She took care of us. People always remembered how they feel. Alex will make you feel welcome and make sure you will have drink that you will enjoy as well as cigar. If you are in the area, come and say hello to Alex.“

“Great lunch with a lovely view. The restaurant is beautifully decorated. Service was excellent. Poké bowl had lovely shavings of ginger and other hummus. I was unable to identify. My husband had the pork chop. It was cooked perfectly. Everything was very flavorful.“

“Love this place! I'm new in town, and I've found that this is the best bar/food spot in the area. The food is great (they make an amazing burger), the drinks are great, and the prices are very very solid. Service is fantastic too. I came in today having a somewhat cruddy day, but Shayla cheered me right up! She brought all my stuff to me with record speed, and it felt like she was actually listening and interested in conversing with me. This place is great, and another shoutout to Shayla (although the other bartenders are great too, I just haven't learned their names yet).“

“Only got the chance to go here once but it was so awesome. The decor and cocktails were amazing. Truly one of the coolest bars I have ever been to. Sad they are closing down. I hope they reopen one day maybe closer to international or something.“

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

“5/5 stars in all ways! Very welcoming with a family like vibe, good menu with rotating options, huge commons area for mingling and events, plus plenty of TVs and hands on games!!! Great staff and drink specials. Kid and dog friendly! Great experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“If you're an artist the live drawing events are amazing, but otherwise this is just one of my favorite bars in the area. Friendly bartenders and I don't ever really feel out of place or uncomfy drinking here solo, plus the art/curation is always great.“

“Great atmosphere and great steak!!“

“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!“

“Dec 2025 - Breaktime back at the Hogs Head. We enjoyed our Beers and snacks watching the people and roller coasters pass by the castle. A surprise moment occurred when the Weasley-costumed guests we saw yesterday appeared and joined us at our table. They were Americans from the Midwest who come very often to the park in their Weasley disguise.“

“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!“

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

“Heyyy googlers great place for fun late nights it's a strip of bars and clubs and some good street food!!! There is an area where a few bars share space and a big screen. There is alot of parking places you can find as cheap as $10 I usually find parking within walking distance. Don't drink and drive but try the plaza!“

“Good cocktails on happy hour“

“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!!!!“

“The hopping pot has a great assortment of drinks and three types of hand pies (half circle pie crust), veggies, chicken and beef. They are hand size for $10.
They sell gillywater which is just bottled water, but if you ask for a cup of water they will give you a plastic cup full of ice water for free.“

“Was in Orlando and was looking for a place to watch Bills game, came across The Other Bar, had a great time watching the game and everyone there was amazing. If your a Bills fan I highly recommend checking it out. Look for Bronte she was amazing and definitely made the game even more fun, Awesome service, fun and full of life. Bronte will definitely be the one I look for next time I’m down.“

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

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

“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!!!“

“Beautiful older resort hotel. Our room was clean and had everything you need for a restful stay. Helpful and friendly staff. Has amazing pool area with grotto!“

“Had w wonderful birthday dinner tonight! Delicious!“

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

“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.“
