    We went to Ed's a couple of days ago. We were seated relatively fast. The waitress was nice, but a lot of other staff seemed to help and bring things to the table (some of them might benefit from smiling a little more). The food we had was good for a sports bar. We had some pizza rolls, Santa Fe type roll, chicken bites (could be a little more crunchy), and a fish fry (they should offer vinegar with a fish fry). We had no major complaints on the food, it's a sports bar and I think the food was tasty and met that label. Atmosphere was loud in a good way if you're looking to be yourself and enjoy some sports games. If you're looking for quiet, maybe not your place. Based on a sports bar: Food 7.0 Service 7.0 Atmosphere 6.5

    We traveled to Sarasota for a baseball tournament that was canceled due to rain! We were all bummed but decided lunch at a local sports bar would be a good pick up. It sure was! The place was already packed with locals at 11:30 so we knew we were in for a treat. We got a nice spot outside where we could still watch football. This was the perfect spot for our 3 kids! Food was great, especially for a sports bar. Wings were crunchy and perfect. We were in awe of the massive chicken tender on the kids menu that was actually a full chicken breast perfectly fried. The kids burgers were smash burgers, which was different for our kids. They weren't expecting a smash burger but I tasted them and they were soooo good! Local beer on tap was icing on the cake. Tip: definitely get the beer cheese if you get the pretzels!

    Food and service were excellent! It is a sports bar so it's got plenty of TVs and a great atmosphere but be prepared for it be extremely loud. Hubby had the cheesesteak and I had the Lemon chicken breast w/ French fries. Both were delicious and the French fries are amazing. Very tasty with a thin crispy coating

    Yum. Anyone up for a microwaved cheese? I'll share.

    Yum. Anyone up for a re made- microwaved "grilled" cheese? You can have ours. Just No. This was a cold grilled cheese politely sent back just to you know, make it a melted cheese inside the grilled bread. When it came back to my children, with the bread that had their little bites prior to sending it back and a heavy glob of more cheese decorated on the inside and outside of the bread, I knew this chef said to his server as she brought it back. F them. I'll show you ! Never going back. Thanks chef ! You were delightful.

    This spot is pretty lowkey but it definitely gets packed. I was there during March Madness and all the tables were full and so was the bar. I had to stand the entire time I was there. The beer is pretty good, didn't have a chance to try the food though. From what I could tell though it's your typical bar fare, pizza, wings...thing like that. The crowd is quite a mix of ages too, which I think is actually great because then it doesn't feel like a dive bar or a spot just meant for people in their late 20s. The weekends are definitely more lively, so be sure to stop in on a Friday or Saturday. And come early, or else you'll get stuck standing :D

We were seated right away. It was the 5 o'clock hour and by the time we left it was getting pretty busy. They have tons of tvs showing sports and the bar is set apart but the noise level is pretty loud. Our waitress was super attentive and had our drinks to us quickly. After ordering the food was brought out pretty fast as well and everything was delicious! I had the smash burger and it was cooked perfectly. My husband and dad had the cheesesteaks and enjoyed them. My mom really loved the veggie wrap and we started with a yummy tray of nachos! The prices are comparable with other places. My favorite was the dipping sauce for the fries!! We will definitely be making another visit!

I would definitely recommend coming here

It was beautiful outside and luckily were offered an outdoor table (which was perfect as in inside seating area was very cold). We were sat (2ppl) and were about the 5th or 6th table outside. There was a table sitting next to us that had clearly finished their food and we're waiting to pay their check after about 15 minutes. The mother took the two other children and left the father there to pay the bill. About 10 minutes later, he ended up getting up and going inside to find a server. His new sword ever came outside. We sat at our table for probably 30 minutes and watched the host. Continue to see people outside filling it up. After about 35 minutes of nobody ever even approaching our table, we got up and left. I don't understand if you are short staffed why you would open an extra receiving area if you cannot service it? I have been there in the past and it has not ever been this bad. But after almost 45 minutes, I'm not even being acknowledged, we had to leave and find lunch somewhere else. To me, this was 100% on greedy management. You are not gonna increase your sales by filling up the restaurant and then not having enough service staff on duty to take care of it. I noticed another table also get up and walk towards their car after they saw us get up and leave. Not a manager in sight, not a server insight, just the continuing seating by a young man who was only doing what he was told to do, obviously without direction.

    Amazing place in Lakewood Ranch! I'm so happy to have a great brewery/restaurant close to home…read morejust like what I was used to where I moved from years ago. Great food, awesome beer selection, and love the vibe! Had the dry rub wings today along with a couple hazy's. Excellent! For those posting negative reviews, I urge you to give them another shot. We were there the night they reopened after Hurricane Milton, as it seems were half Lakewood Ranch! It's an understatement to say they were slammed! They were doing the best they could given the circumstances. Yet there was a table close to us that found fault. Give it a friggin rest people! Everyone is entitled to have an "off day", especially after a Cat 4 hurricane rips through your area! Inner Compass didn't have to reopen as quickly as they did. But they did anyway because they were serving a real need. If people don't see that, then that's on them! I've never had a bad meal there. Yes, occasionally service is slow or less attentive but if you look at the wider picture of what's happening in the moment, there's a real, legitimate reason. People, don't just get stuck in your own bubble and actually take time to observe what's going on around you! In the meantime, I plan to go to Inner Compass as often as I can for my ICB Beer Cheese Burgers and Hazy Boys!

    The beer selection was good and the indoor atmosphere is pretty big and welcoming,…read more Analia was an excellent server! Everything was amazing . However, I wisher there had been more tables with umbrellas and either new sod or astroturf for the rear yard area.
