After months of anticipation... I finally made it to Alfie's…read more It was exactly what I was hoping it would be: a slice of culture. Real people. Real life. Real youth. Real energy. Real good vibes. Orlando obviously has no shortage of places to eat, drink, and gather, but Alfie's belongs to that rare category of venues that feel equally at home in a major metropolis. It's the kind of spot that would fit seamlessly into Los Angeles's best neighborhoods: think Gold Line in Highland Park or the Vinyl Room at the Hollywood Palladium. Not because they're carbon copies, but because they share that intangible quality of genuine discovery and cultural curiosity. The crowd ( age range 25 - 35 mostly ) was genuinely engaged with one another. People were actually talking, actually present, not hunched over their phones. That alone felt invigorating. There was an undeniable spark in the room. Alfie's wasn't chasing trends; it was simply allowing them to emerge naturally. What impressed me most was how they brought it all together .. Retro stereo equipment and vinyl players from the 50s mixed with a bar area that's super sleek and modern. Conversations, music, the lounge itself .... all came together in a way that felt alive and IN THE MOMENT. When my LA friends visit, Alfie's is on the list. Go after 9 or 10 PM and plan to stay for at least two hours. That's when you really see the scene develop and come alive. Bring your ID: they card at the door. Even at my age, I still get carded. No complaining about that ! lol

We entered around 8 pm on a Wednesday. We considered getting a drink since it was cold inside and…read morethe music was good. However, we initially entered to get a picture in the photobooth for our friends birthday. There was no one at the door checking IDs. After we all piled into the photobooth, someone walked up and asked for our IDs. He wanted us to exit the booth to get them. Eventually said ok because we had already paid and on a timer. But he was very impatient. Let me add that there was not a single person in the entire place. NO ONE. Let me also add that almost our entire group is almost 40. So we're obv not underage. With the way he approached us and was completely impatient, we were a little turned off and left. Which lost them money on our entire group. He followed us out the door as we left. It was a weird experience especially when there was literally no one else in there. The music was good but I doubt and of us will to back based on that experience alone.

HOW HAVE I NOT REVIEWED THE GUESTHOUSE YET?????…read more Best Tom Collins Cocktail I've ever had! I've celebrated my birthday here, have met up with friends here and more gone when they had a food collab. This place is awesome. They get very busy but the ambiance is fun. Last year, we got a group together to celebrate "The Eve Before the Eve" (12/23) and we had such a blast! Tasty cocktails, chill atmosphere. They do not serve food at this establishment but you can order food or bring food in. It kind of works out because there is so much delicious food on the strip! If you want a good craft cocktail, access to delicious eats nearby or a place to meet up with some friends for a birthday or just because, this is a good place to start! And please, for the love of god try the Tom Collins if that's your kind of drink...it's so good!

Really love the variety of well crafted cocktails, and interesting plates to share. My favorite cocktail ever has been removed from the menu, their pear martini, but if you ask very nicely, they'll sometimes still make it for you. Last night we enjoyed the avocado dip and the short rib and fig flatbread. I was surprised that the avocado dip was cold, but still delicious. Another favorite is their beef carpaccio. Service is fast and friendly, but be patient if it's pre-show as they get very crowded. Love the ambience and the music and the vibe... Highly recommend!

The drinks are good but a quite over priced. The food is ok again but severely over priced for what it is with the only thing priced appropriately is the 7 layer chocolate cake which can be shared as it is quite large. The pretzel everyone mentions is good but again way very over priced. The server we had was very nice and even offered us to box the second cake included with the wicked wind down to take home. He did forget that I requested no ice in my first drink and i had to request water refills and soda refills several times and wasn't very fast at bringing the drinks, but he was pleasant overall I would go again mainly for the view and maybe a drink, but knowing what to expect helps.
