The GPS was a little misleading, but Avon Acres is located on Summer Ave BEHIND Central BBQ. The venue is clean and very spacious, with an outdoor area, interior prior to entering, and very ample space for the event of your choosing. There is regular and wheelchair accessible parking in front, but a larger parking lot is between Central BBQ and the gate before entering Avon Acres. We also had food. It was catered, but there was an area she had for creating beverages, so I imagine there's an area in the back for food preparation. To be honest, I am not sure of the cost, but I'd definitely consider this venue if you're planning for a very large crowd.

They have a booth for a DJ and a projector with pull-down screen. There's also lights mounted in different places but I'm not sure how those are controlled as we had to manually turn two of them off during the main dances in order to make sure they didn't blind people. The only real downside is that the restrooms are one stall per gender but they're out of the way and were fully stocked with toilet paper and soap so even that wasn't too bad.

It's a great environment and a good place to grab a drink after work or just because. One might think that would constitute 5 stars, but time after time I've been here, the service continues to be subpar. It is not difficult to be pleasant. Try harder. I always feel like I'm inconveniencing the gentleman bartender who works many of the nights. I'm sorry you have to do your job; mine sucks sometimes too, but I manage a smile and a polite demeanor. But seriously, go. It's worth it.

Holy moly! That view!…read more I attended the Special Olympics dinner here a year or two ago and was completely blown away by the view (especially at night...all those pretty lights!)...and yesterday (during the day) was no different (GORGEOUS!). I've heard rumors for awhile now that they a happy hour and it has been on my short list of things I want to try it. Well, yesterday I had a meeting in the bar area at 4 and decided to ring up a few friends after it was over to fully experience their happy hour. And honey, I'm so glad I did. Their house by the glass is only $4 and well liquor is $3. Tower Center, I think we're going to get along just fine (especially since my office is literally next door). But what really impressed me (besides that view), was the food! I am super picky about my cheese plates and not only was it pretty to look at, but it was yummy to eat (kinda important). And the chicken wings? Yes, please! They were so cute and tiny and delicious! I've actually never seen pretty chicken wings but somehow they managed to do it (no seriously, check out my photo). I also stole some bites of my dining partner's french fries and they were indeed just like I like 'em. And the pizza? Phenomenal! You've got to check out my food porn pics! They also rent out the venue space so take a peek around!

I like the fact that it's smoke-free -- double bonus, so you can actually taste the food that you're paying an arm and a leg for. I kid. Not sure of the food cost, but I am sure that you can bring your alcohol and you'll just need to pay the corking/pouring fees. The ballroom can accommodate up to 350 people for your big party.
