SERVICE: 5 FOOD QUALITY: N/A DRINK QUALITY: 5 ORDER TIME: 5 AESTHETICS: 5 NOISE LEVEL: 5 MENU SELECTION: 5 OVERALL EXPERIENCE:5 This place is the most unsuspecting hidden gem that I've never heard anyone ever talk about so I'm gonna boast about it on Yelp. Located in the milk district this little bar is the neighborhood bar. The bar was packed because of the weekend milk mart event. The bartenders were not phased by the massive volume and were fun to talk to. They have so many options of beer and wine to drink or purchase to go. A lot of really rare items you won't find in any grocery store. I love sours and they had two on tap. Both were amazing which had me reminiscing on all the wonderful sour beers I left behind in Michigan. They gave me faith that Florida can produce good sours and quality beer. Overall, this place was the best part of the day. Highly recommend if you're looking for something small and personable with amazing service. Also has an array of eclectic art works which is wonderful. They even have live music on select evenings which really has me ready to go back.

Stamped paper bag & a cherry soda, really good

I was extremely comfortable here. Everyone was friendly. I had a Polar beer in a glass bottle for $3. It was delicious, slightly Malta taste, from South America. It hit the spot. Then I had a cherry soda, also $3, in a glass bottle also. Relaxing bar area. Lots of books to look at, & vhs tapes for sale. Stamped paper bags for your bottle provided also, cute touch. It was fun people watching later sitting outside at some classroom desks.

This is a really cool place that serves as a hub for different community members, you can come here and run into some type of event or meetup, which is great if you're looking for things to explore. The place is very small, a nook, and very intimate. You can sit at the bar and chill with the staff, or sit in a couch and relax. BUT, there is a parking area in the back that is used for events, such as music performances and markets, so there is entertainment in and out. The beers served here are primarily Florida beers, and some are local beers, depending on what's on tap or in the cooler. You got to come here if you want to support your Florida craft beer scene, local groups, and local businesses rather than franchises.

Yesterday after the Holiday Milk Market

Dope spot! Beer and wine only. It's locally owned, and they work the bar...which adds to their character. Book swapping available, they've decorated with tons of nostalgic items and memorabilia. My favorite time to visit is on a Tuesday during tasty - they allow you to sit indoors and do all your munching. Prices are great too... it's small and intimate. It's a homey vibe! Seems like just yesterday this place was Sandwich Bar but 5 years later and the new owners are doing a really great job, love the weekly events and markets. Cheers!

The actual best bar in Orlando. The best Bartenders in Orlando, and the apex of the local scene. Fun events, community, and beer. The single most welcoming space I've been in Orlando. I can't say enough about how incredible this place is.

Good Wheat

Service, Service, Service! It's not everything, but it's damn near close. What stood out to me about The Nook was how friendly and helpful. Mary took the time to show me all of the Wheat beer options they had and explained the breweries behind them. It's kinda small so it's aptly named. It's a good place to grab a cold beer if you're in the area. Tuesdays in the back they have food truck's set up as part of Tasty Takeover, and the Nook is the place to get beer to go with your bao, birria, bowls, burgers or beans.

Such an amazing spot in the Milk District. The owners are very nice and friendly. I love the decorations around the place and it just feels vintage! The drink selection is large, definitely check out the ciders!

What a cozy local little place this is. Starting with the '80s decorations, living room style. Feels like I walked in someone's house. The bartenders were great! The beer selection is pretty nice and the price was great! Their mystery beer deal is super cool!!!

Establishment hosted virtual beer tasting & local distillery from key west Fl to Tallahassee FL each event featured a different approach on flavors of beers. Tonight the focus was presented with special guest from each distillery presenting the flavor of beer. During the pandemic all local businesses needs local support. Expertise sharing knowledge during these tasting shares & sparks interest of wanting to experience going to the distillery all across FL. Always been a huge supporter of local business. Really appreciated this virtual experience. I've taken a few pics & appreciate everyone for making this possible. @beerscouts #craftbeer #craftbeerflorida #craftbeerorlando #paleale #whitbeer #yelporlando #copperale @yelp @bowigens beercompany @islamoradabeer @proofbrewingco @bigstormbrewing @persimmomhollow @thenookrobinson

It is located in the Mills 50 district next to Tori Tori (another local FAV). It is truly a nice little getaway spot from the usual hustle and bustle of the Mills 50 bar scene. They have seating indoors and outdoors. Their outdoor patio area is charming and adorned with umbrellas, and the fountain just adds a special touch, as well as masks the typical street sounds of passing cars and passersby. In the cooler months, the patio is just a vibe! The interior is just as charming with "French-inspired" influences, lovely lighting & decor that ties in the European escape this wine bar beautifully embodies. On my first visit, we tried to sit outdoors, but the Florida heat (& bees) had other plans for us. So, we transitioned inside and sat at their bar area. We were immediately greeted by the kindest servers who guided us on their menu selections. My friend and I, with similar wine tastes (we both love our wines DRY like DESERT), both opted for a glass of rosé and YUM! We followed it up with a white selection recommended by our server, and we enjoyed it immensely. Truly ten, ten, tens across the board! We did not eat (which, in all honesty, is okay with me). And based on reviews from various other Yelpers, the consensus SEEMS to be to eat prior to coming to Lorelei. So, I kept that in mind and on my second visit to Lorelei, I decided to just try MORE of their wine selection. On my most recent visit, we did try some light bites. Typically, on all my visits, I usually cap around two glasses of wine, and it's reasonable. They are not the cheapest spot, especially if you add food to your tab, but for the quality, it is worth it (to me as it relates to the wine selection), as I haven't really had a terrible glass of wine there. Maybe on my next visit, I'll try more of their food menu. Beyond that, Lorelei has been a great addition to the Mills 50 District! I am looking forward to how they will grow with the community!

I loved this experience and will happily come back to visit. We arrived the hour before closing on a Sunday, so the kitchen was closed. But we had a glass of a really nice Sangiovese and chatted with the servers. It's such a classy little spot with some truly amazing photo ops for the group. There were a couple girls taking pics outside when we arrived, so of course I told my parents they needed to do a pic as well. The food menu looked amazing and I will try some bites next time. The bottles of wine were more expensive than expected, but the glasses and beers were very reasonable.

I ordered the Milk Punch which was delicious and a good balance of sweetness. My friend got the Margarita and also enjoyed it. To eat, we shared the Say Cheese Board which perfectly fit the vibe of the lounge and had a good mix of cheese, fruit, and bread (which they will bring you more of if you'd like). Definitely shareable and a great start. We then had the Gambas A La Ajillo which may have been my favorite of the night. They have a tableside presentation for it where they cut up the egg and shrimp, mix it all together, and then crush salty chips on top. The chips get a little chewy in the sauce and it's incredible! Lastly, we had the Risotto A La Amatriciana which was a fun take on a "traditional" risotto that most of us are used to. The risotto was in little fried balls, like arancini, and broken apart and tossed in the sauce tableside. Every bite had that crispy texture and was another great dish. 3/3! The ambiance was very laid back and I would love to come back on a night that they are spinning records. Service was great without being too overpowering, and the decor was beautiful. We sat in these huge comfortable leather chairs that I wanted to take home with me! Parking was also easy as there is a garage next door. Absolutely would revisit Sparrow and totally recommend it to others!

They…read moreproduce an incredible array of handcrafted wines, from crisp whites to bold reds and sweet dessert wines. The Tasting Room: Before or after your meal, stop by their dedicated tasting bar to sample their latest releases. Joining their Wine Club is practically a rite of passage for local foodies! Pairing Recommendations: Every single menu item includes a specific Cooper's Hawk wine number recommendation, making it completely foolproof to pair your glass or bottle with your meal. What We Ordered & Standout Flavors The extensive American menu features a brilliant blend of comfort classics and artisanal creations: The Bruschetta (Starter): A table staple. Toasted artisanal bread topped with Roma tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, sweet basil, and a generous balsamic glaze drizzle. Simple, fresh, and bursting with flavor. Pan-Roasted Barramundi (Main): Incredibly moist and flaky, served alongside blistered green beans, fingerling potatoes, and a rich, savory crab-butter sauce that ties the whole dish together. Pretzel-Crusted Pork Chops: Thick-cut, juicy, and coated in a crunchy pretzel crust, served with a heavenly mustard cream sauce and apple butter. It is the ultimate comfort food done at a fine-dining level. The Dessert: Do not leave without ordering the Cooper's Hawk Chocolate Cake--towering, decadent, and paired with rich chocolate ganache and vanilla bean ice cream. Service & Atmosphere The service at Cooper's Hawk is legendary for a reason. Even with the dining room packed to the brim on a weekend night, the staff operates like a well-oiled machine. Servers are exceptionally well-trained, deeply knowledgeable about the wine list, and maintain an upbeat, attentive pace from start to finish. The atmosphere is lively, sophisticated, and perfect for celebrating special occasions, date nights, or lively group dinners. Elite Pro-Tips for Your Visit: Reservations Are a Must: This location gets packed heavily due to its prime I-Drive positioning. Book well in advance, especially for weekend dinner slots. Beat the Wait: If you didn't book ahead, head straight for the bar area or the outdoor patio seating for a slightly faster route to a great meal. Take a Bottle Home: Grab a bottle of your favorite wine from the tasting room on your way out to enjoy later!

I do wish Swirlery had been on my radar much longer because I fell immediately in LOVE with this little gem of a place. It is a very warm and inviting wine bar and shop. It is woman-owned and located in the SoDo District. They have a great selection of wines and a large inventory of bottles for sale. The staff has been super kind every time I've visited, as well as very helpful if you are struggling with finding a wine to fit your palate. They offer various tastings as well. So, you can sample the wine you'd like to try prior to purchase. Again, as noted, you can purchase a bottle or purchase a glass of wine. They also serve craft beer if you are looking for something outside of wine to drink. Swirlery also hosts various events.
