    We were in the area, taking care of some business and had heard of this place before from a different location. However, we had yet to try there. We went for a late lunch early dinner. We were probably seated. Our server was extremely sweet and helpful with recommendations. They have an extremely large selection of different types of beer. You can get samples as well. We opted for the kettle chip nacho Thai appetizer and it was delicious. The chips were fresh. They weren't overly crunchy. There was tons of toppings on them 10 out of 10 recommend Remind me, I opted for the bison burger. The bacon jam was a little bit of a weird other than that. It was really good. It was cooked perfectly. Lots of toppings and the fries were well seasoned and fried perfectly. Hubby opted for the burger with peanut butter on it as he can never say no to a good peanut butter burger. It had lots of flavor was juicy cooked perfectly and for his side, he chose the sweet potato tater tots, which comes with caramel dipping sauce, and those were hands-down, the best sweet potato tots either one of us have ever had absolutely love this place and the Ford nostalgia decor. Looking forward to trying another location that is closer to home and hoping for the same experience

    Had an awesome burger here with great customer service from Abby to match. I got a Black & Blue burger which was packed with flavor in every bite. I could taste the blackened seasoning on the burger and the tang from the blue cheese crumble was just phenomenal. It has been quite some time since I've been as I usually go to the Southwest Florida location and the fries.... Ughhhhhhhh THE BEST. I love the pepper on the fries. I can't wait to come back! Place is a complete novelty that's full of cool stuff like benches made from old ford truck tailgates, engines rotating in the dining area, servers wearing mechanic shirts. Just a great atmosphere all together!

    What a great lunch. Clean & fun atmosphere. My server was Sarah spelled differently though. She was fantastic. I had the 17.76 special for the 4th of July. Great burger & fries. I will start going to these regularly.

    Friendly staff, tons of seating and lots of displays. If you're a Ford and/or car fan, you'll enjoy this place. Everything is themed including the staffs' clothing and down to the napkins. I don't realize they were meant to be like mechanic's towel, so I asked for paper napkins thinking it was a rag. The server had to explain it was part of the theme. I had a good laugh about that! The food was decent. I just had the seared tuna and a side of green beans. They were average but tasty. I was traveling for work.

    Fords garage has the best food and ambiance! As they say they are known for their 3 B's, burgers, beer and bathrooms. Bathrooms may sound strange but everything is themed in model T Ford cars and cars parts. Even the handles of the doors walking in are gas pump handles! The bathrooms have sinks within tires and you have to turn on the pump to get the water to wash your hands. It's all very cool. The bar is very neat too. They have a model T that hangs above the bar and you can honk its horn and smoke pumps out the back. The other cool part of the bar is their very large on draft list and the bar itself has a cold strip to keep you glass ice cold. Now the food is so good. They have delicious burgers, salads and a dish I especially love called the chicken Henry if you are looking for something a little less heavy. The pretzel app is delicious and onion rings come out on a fuel funnel. I'd highly recommend checking out fords!

    Visited here after a job done around the area. The burguer was incredibly juicy and a lot of flabor, loved my food. If I pass again around the area, I'll definitely stop for another of those juicy burguers. Also, it is fun that all the restaurant is decorated with old things from the car Ford, old cars, gas pumps, etc etc.

    Ford's Garage is a fun, car-themed restaurant with a great atmosphere and solid happy hour prices. The appetizers were really good and definitely worth it. Our service was excellent! CiCi was attentive, friendly, and made the experience even better. I'd definitely come back for happy hour and the vibe.

    Ford's Garage continues to be a great and unique restaurant in Florence. As I've mentioned in the past they have a huge menu of unique items that has a slight focus on burgers. We started with an appetizer of Buffalo Chicken Dip made with Philadelphia cream cheese, shredded chicken, and topped with diced celery. It was served with tortilla chips. It was really tasty and we really enjoyed it. I went with a burger called the "Carly Pearce" which came with a big ole juicy burger topped with sharp cheddar, Applewood smoked bacon. Bourbon bbq sauce, lettuce, tomato, and red onion. I left the latter 3 off my sandwich. The burger was cooked perfectly (medium for me) and I loved the bacon and bbq sauce. I do wish they had put more bbq sauce on it as I really liked it but there was barely any on there. A minor quibble because it was still pretty good. The plate came with fries which were above average. The service has been top notch every time we've been here and was this time as well. The restaurant has all the great Ford car decor all over the restaurant and makes the experience fun. Ford's Garage definitely is a winner and we'll definitely be back.

    I would definitely go back. I picked it for our group to eat at and no one was disappointed! There were 7 of us.

    Love the ambiance and consistency of the decor throughout this restaurant. Service was friendly. Our food was served quick and hot. The tables are a bit small and the tall barrier walls throughout the restaurant do not allow you to see the entire restaurant. I do recommend this restaurant and I'm glad we finally got to check this one off of our list.

    At the bar and very cool Ford decor.

    Cool space, of Nostalgic Americana and a blast back to the Model A and Model T garage theme is all throughout the place. Great food and lots to choose from and enjoy. Our waitress was great but the bartender was always slow to serve without busy at 4:30pm. We will come back again as I want to try more. The black and blue bacon burger was great.

    We had a great lunch with our 4 year-old this weekend. He was excited by the tire sinks and the car horn he could press the button for. Our server, Petri, was excellent. My burger was really good but the fries were even better - perfectly seasoned. I had the Estate Burger, which has just a hint of sweetness and was so filling (I could only eat half!) My husband had the brisket and loved it. My son ate every bite of his macaroni and cheese.

The bar is huge, with an impressive selection of draft beers (especially if you're an IPA fan), and they also have bourbon bottles available for purchase. We ordered burgers, and they were all really good. One bun seemed a little stale, but it didn't take away from the overall meal. The cheese curds were a standout: piping hot, crispy, and definitely worth ordering. The beef nachos, on the other hand, were a bit disappointing. They arrived cold and just didn't have the same wow factor as the rest of the food. My sweet potato fries were a little soggy, but I took the leftovers home and popped them in the air fryer the next day, and they turned out fantastic. Overall, I'd definitely go back. If you're looking for a laid-back spot with great burgers, a huge beer selection, and a menu that has something for just about everyone in the family, dog and kid friendly, 859 Taproom is a solid choice.
