    Stamped paper bag & a cherry soda, really good
    Deborah B.

    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.

    We went for a beat show (which apparently occurs every third Friday of the month) and this place was a whole VIBE. There is so much to look at and laugh at. We fell in love with this place immediately. The owner/bartender was super sweet and on top of everything. I was DD and I was super happy to see there was a variety of liquid deaths to pick from - flat, sparkling, and flavored. I love me some fancy water. Hubby had about 5 beers and loved all of them. There's a long craft beer menu separated by flavor profile and they also serve wines. Definitely a cool spot to check out if you're in the Milk District.

    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.

    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.

    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!!!

    Beer and signage out back of the nook!
    Euclides C.

    It has been a long time since I've went to this bar and almost forgot they are here during Tasty Tuesday's. Which is a plus due to the only way to wash down good food is having a good drink. Pricing is not bad either. I had an IPA - hazy Bois plus two waters and it was about 12$ -13$ total. Truly a gem in the mail district!

Now, diving in, I've only had food from Red Panda Noodle - which I initially discovered during Tasty Tuesdays in the Milk District. My first time having them, I fell immediately in love with their beef noodle option: Beef & Broccoli. It is flavorful and filling! The price points are standard (roughly $17.00 for the Beef & Broccoli). All other dishes are reasonably priced. As for A La Cart City as a place, it's centrally located off Orange Ave. There is PAID parking all around - sadly, unless you use the DTO promo code for a free two hours of parking, you will have to pay to park just about anywhere in Downtown Orlando. Parking is ample, but it can get pricey depending on when / where you park. There is ample seating downstairs and upstairs. It is service animal-friendly. They have a large screen for viewing sports or displaying any video (if you reserve the space for an event). The staff is kind, attentive, and helpful. They have a decent (not super large, but decent nonetheless) beer and wine selection. Price points are comparable to the other A La Cart locations. The overall location is great in the sense that it's a great spot to start a "bar-hop" vibe and make your way down into the thick of DTO. All in all, I am a fan of all three A La Cart lcoations. Also, did I mention, it is a great little spot for events! So, definitely visit them if you have not already.

Not just the tap beer but the bottles and cans as well. I find it challenging to stalk their social media looking for menu updates only to visit and find out something is gone or I missed a special I would have really enjoyed just a few days earlier.

    This one's is a hard review because I was SO excited to come here - maybe it was just an off-day?…read moreWe walked in and we're not greeted. We were the only ones in the whole place and there were 3 workers behind the bar who just looked at us. We told them it was our first time and nobody really responded. We then carried on with our own small talk until one of them greeted us and explained the wristbands. We got our drinks and that part was fun and cool! We played board games but they never collected our cups and just kinda watched us? Eventually more people came and the employees became more lively - all three employees focusing on a birthday girl who came in.

    Pour Choice Taphouse is a great addition to the Orlando craft beer scene…read more The tap list is consistently well curated, with a mix of local breweries, rotating specialties, and options for people who prefer cider, sours, or lighter beers. Don't like beer? No problem! There are over 7 different cocktails on tap including seasonal espresso martinis flavors. There is also a full bar to order from! The space itself is clean, comfortable, and easy to hang out in whether you're stopping by for a quick drink or settling in with friends to play one of the games stocked there. The tap list is constantly changing, which makes each visit a little different. It's a good spot for anyone who enjoys trying new beers or supporting local businesses.

    This was such a hidden gem! It was my boyfriend's birthday and the first thing I asked him was what…read moredid he want to do for his birthday? He said beer spa and immediately I said why a beer spa if we don't even drink beer? This experience was such a great experience because you don't even have to drink beer in order to have a great time. They offer wine selections, sangrias and Prosecco etc with an additional up charge. I felt that it was worth it since me and my boyfriend do not drink beer. When we first walked in we had to call for the host to unlock the door for our apartment which makes it more tailored to people who set reservations in advance. You do pay for it advance as well so just be advised when booked. I was charged the add on after the appointment which was the wine. You are provided with towels, glasses , Robes before entering the private room. You have a locker with the key to lock your items like purses, etc. you are allowed to take your phones in the room which was nice if you wanted to capture the experience . They offer two tubs which are both in the room. For a more intimate experience I got the one tub which was nice because the one tub is enough room to fit two people comfortably. When you walk in the room, there's a sauna, tub and a hay bed. It is recommended to use the tub first to bathe in (ingredients to make beer not actual beer) for 30 mins. The sauna for 15 mins and the hay bed for another 15mins: the host explains all of this before your timer starts in the room. There is a cone that turns from green to red to keep track of your time when you are inside the room which I love that so we don't have to keep checking our phone every minute to keep track. You only get 60 mins but tbh it's worth it. We had such a great time doing this and very different from a normal spa but worth every penny. We were able to get as much wine as we wanted with the purchase and we mixed it with the sangria for it be stronger. When the time is up you just come out and there are available items to purchase like soaps, lotions, etc. which was also a nice touch as well. We will definitely be back because this was such a special moment to be able to relax and unwind with how busy our lives has been. Thank you beer spa for the amazing experience.
