    My daughter took a quick day trip up to Crystal River to walk a trail and visit downtown. We got hungry and found this place on Yelp. It's a cute little tavern! We were seated right away (seat yourself). There were plenty of options on the menu, my daughter got the BLT and I got the kraut and hot dog. We shared an order of fried pickles. We both really enjoyed our meals! If I'm ever in the area again, I would definitely stop in!

    So after our disaster of a dinner at the Copp, we rode over to St John's Tavern. I wish we had just came here first. The tavern itself is located in the middle of town, and recalls an old English tavern of the early 20th century. The history nerd in me appreciated that, along with the cheerful staff that were extremely helpful. I was able to enjoy a glass of bourbon before we shared some chili nachos, which really hit the spot. I ordered the cowboy burger, which had cheddar, bbq sauce and an onion ring. The rest of my friends also had burgers, and the ladies really liked the espresso martini. If I had the pleasure of living down here, this tavern would be my daily haunt. There's something about that old English atmosphere that really agrees with me and I wish we had something like this in my town.

    We sat at the bar for fast service

    Great place! Love the history! Great smash burger and pastrami on rye. Homemade chips. Great place for a relaxing lunch! Savannah was fast and efficient.

    Cool tavern vibes with a really nice bar and lots of big high top tables to sit at. Pretty good food for bar food, we're out of a few things. We got the fried pickles, the chili dog with homemade chips, the double smash burger, the st. john's beef, and the pepperoni flat bread. The chili dog was the best item we got, and the sauce was delicious. Worth stopping in if you're hungry and need a place to sit and cool off in the town.

    Great drinks and an even better smash burger. Super local bar and eatery with very friendly people. Fairly quick service and affordable.

It's a small deli with a few tables for a place to eat in but they do mostly take out. It may be small but it's big on flavor! My husband went there to order us sandwiches because we've been hearing good things about them. I have to agree with the general consensus! I have my husband pick me up their Italian sub called Capone's Italian. Made with Boar's Head meats : Capicola, Genoa Salami, Pepperoni, Picante Provolone Cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo and their deli dressing served on a 10 inch demi baguette roll. It was delicious! Definitely a hearty sandwich so it might make two meals for you as it did for me. My husband had their Italian Sausage sandwich which he loved too! It was large enough to feed two people and scrumptious. He said he would definitely order it again. Cappo's Italian Deli also offers a variety of different side salads such as potato salad, pasta salad and even chickpea salad along with their Chef salads, Greek salads and Italian salads. They offer desserts also - not a large variety but they look delicious! Assorted Cannolis which come in two sizes : Large and Mini plus Cheesecakes and Assorted Cakes. Hubby brought home a mini Pistachio Cannoli as a treat and I have to say it was scrumptious. The filling was perfect - not too sweet just perfect sweet and it was loaded with crushed pistachios. The shell was crispy and very fresh tasting. My hubby was treated very nicely by the lady at the cash register and the gentleman who made our sandwiches. They were friendly and prompt in their service. We will be stopping by again to try their other sandwiches and pasta meals that they offer only on certain days of the week. I cannot wait to try those too! A very nice addition to Citrus County Community!

The signage is terrible as it sits in between Kellys and Dominos. So let me be clear, the food itself was decent, which is why I gave it 2 stars. However the value is horrendous! Now I understand that given the current political climate that inflation is a thing, but 1 the menu is not updated to current prices and their website is nonexistent. My buddy and I ordered 2 regular cheese steaks "hero" style which included 1 slice of tomato, an undetermined amount of onion, and a smidge of 1/2 wilted lettuce which turned out to be slightly larger than a stadium sized hotdog 8" maybe..? Fountain drinks were extra with only one size available so 2 of those were added to the order. The bill was almost $33!!!! Let me emphasize that although the quality was decent at best, this was in no way a lunch from Tony Luke's!! The restaurant is clean, but there was zero customers in there to dirty it up. Needless to say, there is no chance whatsoever that I will return to pay $33 for a lunch that should have been $16-$18.

The building nearby is currently under construction, but surely the location would be much more welcoming once the construction is complete.

I'm always a fan of fish and chips, and the portion was generous! The only downside was that the fries were placed under the fish, so by the time I got to them they were a bit greasy and soggy.

It's all the same food both places.

If we would've used cash, we would've saved three dollars. They also have a gift shop with a bunch of different shirts and Stuffed manatees. You also can book to take a cruise right there out on the bay or to go swimming with the manatees. There is also an attached hotel in boat docks. We will definitely be back there!!!

The Mac-n-cheese was okay, but I am not a fan of the white cheese and the chicken noodle soup had a weird taste to it. I have to say, I do not understand receiving a piece of bread as a side with the meal when you order a sandwich to begin with. All in all, the price did not reflect what we received, as the sandwiches seemed chintzy with the width of the sandwich bread not matching that of the pictures and the meat being less than a regular sandwich. I also was disappointed paying $3.29 for a drink and receiving something similar to a kid's cup for a medium drink. Finally, they did not offer a military discount. First time and last for my, unfortunately.
