Amphitheater
Elyscia S.

I love coming to Cranes Roost Park! I'm here at least once a week and often take the one loop multiple times around the park. I started to also come every last Saturday of the month at 10am in front of the amphitheater to join a really fun, free, HIIT fitness class. It's great! There's always something to do around the park!

Went for a walk and enjoyed the solitude. It was a beautiful day and this is a well maintained clean park. There are number of people walking at various ages. There were couples on a picnic and people napping. I loved the outdoor using coming from the speakers. Until next time.

Beautiful venue with a serene lake and ample amphitheater! This is a popular place for walking, jogging, and hosting events. There are places to sit down, have a picnic and observe wildlife. Free parking nearby at the adjacent mall. There's a speaker system that played music during the event that we attended while here. The area is well lit and not too far from I4. The area is also very well maintained.

Definitely worth adding to your holiday rotation. I went with my husband and 3yr old daughter. We walked around to see all the Christmas lights. Made it about half way around before the little one started to melt down. The beautiful lights were worth the trip. We will be back.

This is absolutely gorgeous at the holidays and from the reviews it's well maintained all year round! I walked around the lake on the very clean walkways to see the lights on a beautiful cool Friday evening and found lots of parking close to walk around safely with nice crowds of couples, fitness enthusiasts and families enjoying the park with a few security guards for peace of mind. There are plenty of seating areas and play areas for kids throughout the walkways and the upscale surrounding living ,shopping and restaurants make the entire space amazing to visit!

never knew how beautiful Cranes Roost Park was until this event! The lake views, well-maintained walkways, and relaxing atmosphere made it the perfect spot for Taste of Altamonte. I was surprised to learn that the full loop around the lake is a mile long--such a great place for a scenic stroll. The sunset? Absolutely immaculate. Watching the sky change colors over the water while enjoying delicious bites from local vendors made the night even better. The event itself was well-organized, with a great variety of food, friendly vendors, and live entertainment to set the vibe.

I occasionally venture out to Crane's Roost Park to either attend an event or enjoy a scenic 1-mile walk around the lake. During walks, it is possible to see a variety of wildlife such as birds, turtles and fish. The park is a beautiful, well-designed space. It is a great place for a walk or jog or just to sit out and enjoy the weather and nature. No wheels are allowed so leave the bikes, skates, etc. at home. On one side of the park is an amphitheater that is often used for shows and programs, along with restrooms and various places to sit. The location is near the Altamonte Springs Mall, AMC Movie Theater and a number of restaurants and shops. This is convenient, especially if there are no events that are hosting food trucks or other street food vendors. There is plenty of free parking and in the nearby Mall parking lot which is another plus. I definitely recommend checking out this park if you haven't already.

I went to this park for the Taste of Altamonte event last week. Parking was quite easy at the garage or lot at the mall nearby. It's an easy walk to the park from the mall, and there is plenty of space to walk around the lake. Since I was at the event, they blocked some of the areas including the central area, but still there were other spaces to walk for the non guests. I loved the views of the lake, especially during the night when the park and buildings are lit up. The fountain in the central area is quite nice and well lit. We also had a wonderful band playing live music during the event, which was very enjoyable. There are even restaurants nearby the park, so you can enjoy food and drinks after a nice walk. And of course you can shop at the mall nearby. It's definitely a very nice park in the Altamonte Springs area.

Nice park with plenty of space to walk jug or run, the park is so big that the walking trail takes you Around the whole lake. There is always some type of event going on here and lots of people so you can feel free if you come here to walk or just clear your mind. Plenty of restaurants near by so if you get hungry after your walk/ run you can grab something to eat.

Crane's Roost is one of my favorite places to walk in the Orlando area. The full loop is about a mile long and gives you beautiful scenery the whole way through. Plan on seeing plenty of ducks and turtles on your stroll or experience the beautiful color-changing lights if you go in the evening. Just be warned, there aren't many covered areas so it can get pretty hot depending on the weather.

Cranes Roost Park is a nice park just off of Interstate 4 in Altamonte Springs, Florida. It is a nice park, though it has more of a sidewalk around a lake and maybe downtown walking type thing more than an actual park. Cranes Roost Park is named because it surrounds Crane Roost Lake and is host to the popular 4th of July fireworks display. The park itself was a pleasant enough experience and I enjoyed my time over here and even though it was a bit chilly (the temperature was just under fifty degrees), it was nice enough to spend some time here. If you find yourself in the Altamonte Springs, Florida area and are looking for a place to chill for a bit, go check out Cranes Roost Park.

I'm always looking for an awesome show at an amazing venue and right here is exactly what that was…read morefrom start to finish! The given night I came here Driveways was playing and I must say it was a super fun show it sounded good the venue was awesome for music and the staff was very nice at the door! My gps did put me in the wrong spot so keep in mind that it's around the corner so if you don't see it right away keep venturing and you'll find it! Overall super cool venue with awesome sound hope to come back here again at some point for another show! Until then see you in the circle pit!

This place is great! We went for a live jazz performance. There is no food, just a bar…read more We were in section B and honestly it was great! I wouldn't recommend section C - they had those tall metal chairs that look uncomfortable in that section. I honestly wish I'd got section A, but those shows sell out so quickly that it seems harder to snag those. The sound was amazing & the band was really talented. The look/vibe is really great too! The doors don't open till right before showtime, but there's covered tables & chairs to sit & wait. Parking was a bit tight. The doormen were very fast & efficient. Everyone was friendly too! Overall I really like The Abbey & am going back again in a few weeks, Oh - pro tip - there's an absolutely OUTSTANDING sushi restaurant around the corner & they were very accommodating when we said we were in a hurry to get to the show on time. Check them out!

This review is for using the venue for a comedy show. It was our first time here and immediately…read moreupon walking in, we were disappointed. No seating at all! WTF? I've been to a lot of comedy shows and have never once stood through one until the one at Soundbar. The show was advertised at 8p. We arrived about 7:30 and were told the the doors opened at 8. The show finally started at 9p which is ridiculous as everyone was pretty much inside by 8:15p. Keep in mind, everyone is standing and waiting, so the hour delay made it worse! I don't know the reason, but most of the comedians were wandering around during that time, so they were there. Maybe the main guy was late, who knows. When the show started, it was better! Lot's of comedians and all were funny. Some of them commented and seemed empathetic to the fact we were all standing. By the end, we were sore and couldn't wait to get to the car to sit down! I'm sure the venue is perfectly find for a rave, acoustic, punk rock, death metal, country band (don't you wish one band hit all the marks?), but using this venue for comedy is a mistake. Especially when the show doesn't start on time and you're standing there for 3 hours!

2019 Review 21/100 A…read moregreat space for small concerts! The venue is small and intimate, with a bar near the entrance opening up into a modest concert hall area. They've made some great changes since Backbooth to open up the space a little bit more. The acoustics are great. The whole feel is just very friendly, like you're listening to music in your friend's garage. I recently saw William Ryan Key here (formerly of Yellowcard) and, although I've seen more Yellowcard concerts than I can remember to count, this was one of the best experiences I've had seeing him/them just because of how intimate the space was. Great vibes all around. The staff is friendly too. I'd come back to Soundbar for concerts again and again.
