I attended the beginners night on Tuesday where they teach new dances and they have a very welcoming/not intimidating environment. I have never line danced so this was awesome for me to get a feel for it! It was a mixed crowd of people and the instructor was friendly- my only critique is that I felt they should have had more instructors to cover the crowd (There was only 1 for a ton of people in a big space) or showed the steps on the tvs around the room. Great atmosphere to line dance overall! read more

Went to the Stockyard for Tuesday night line dancing classes. Had the best time! It's a $6 cover charge and the drinks are on the cheaper side! Everyone was so nice, from the front door person to the bartenders to the person teaching line dancing lessons! The room was full of all ages, and they have a large dancing floor. Can't wait to go back next Tuesday! read more

The Stockyard - Bars Near Me - Holiday, Florida

Great line dance place! Big open floor and 3 bars nestled inside. So much room on the outside of the dance floor when not dancing. Big place that can handle a lot of people & DJ plays the best songs. So many friendly faces. Love it here :) read more

This is literally how a bar should operate. From the moment you enter through the doors, you are greeted by an amazing host. Very nice, always complementing my outfit or anything else. DJ Chad is literally the most amazing DJ you will encounter. He will play all of your requests all night long (within reason) and will always have a smile. The bartenders are also top notch, specially Taylor always taking care of my thirst needs The floor is newly remodeled and is very spacious. Overall Stockyard is the place to be!!! Like my friends and I say: Stockyard is home! read more

The best place to line dance. My friend wanted to go line dancing for her birthday. It was between this and the Dallas Bull. She heard that this place was a little more lowkey so we went here. Line dancing lessons start at 7:30 p.m. and are at least on Saturdays and Tuesdays (I believe they may be on other days too). Saturday is expert and Tuesday is beginner. I know this, because the instructor kept looking at us and telling us Tuesdays is for beginners (we were there on a Saturday). We must have looked pretty bad, but we still really enjoyed it. One of my friends walked up to a guy who knew all the dances and asked him how long he's been doing this for. He said he was 24, started when he was 18 and comes pretty much every week. Those are the type of people you'll find here. On a Saturday night, the dance floor is all line dancing. Don't come here expecting it to ever switch over to other dances. That being said, it's pretty impressive watching people line dance. I saw pictures and wondered how people weren't hot in jeans. They keep this place pretty cold, because they know the line dancers are working up a sweat. Drinks are also super cheap. They have something called sink or swim, which is pay $15 for all you can drink wells and bud light draft. I haven't seen something like this since college. I haven't been to a bar that has so many bottles of Smirnoff since college! They do have high noons so I stuck with that. It's $5 a high noon, which is a great price at a bar (to put it in perspective, at Disney we paid $12 per high noon, which is just ridiculous). They do allow 18-20 year olds in and you can tell by the orange wrist band. It seems like most 18-20 year olds play pool and line dance. I really think this must be the place to be in Holiday. Dress code is wear pretty much anything. We randomly saw a ton of women in football jerseys (no clue why). This is not dress to impress, jeans and a cute top (or not so cute top) will suffice. Definitely break out your cowboy boots or sneakers, because flip flops won't cut it when line dancing. We had such a great time that we do want to come back on a Tuesday even though it's a 30 minute drive. It's $5 cover for 21 plus for line dancing lessons, which is the cheapest exercise class you'll ever pay for. And trust me, you will sweat. This is not the place to see or be seen, but it is a place where the drinks are cheap and if you bring the right company you'll enjoy it. read more

The female bouncer would not let me in on the basis my light brown "swim" cargo shorts were against the dress code. I was with 3 other of my queers relatives and it was blatant homophobic and transphobic behavior. She said "swimwear is not allowed" and I replied "name one time I've ever swam in these shorts..." Needless to say never enter this strip mall busted down honky tonk bar located directly to the right of the little Caesar's. I would give this "establishment" 0 stars if I could I've never seen Florida so unprofessional and discriminatory in my life... and that's saying something. read more

The Stockyard - Bars Near Me - Holiday, Florida

It's funny saying this, but you really pick up on some southern hospitality while visiting here in central Florida. It seems the reviews between google and Yelp are night and day difference. My guess why reviews on google are a lot better for this place is because older crowd tends to use google over Yelp. Which, would explain why few reviews on here too. Most of their patrons are older. This country club pretty much does everything right. The only thing I can complain is not being a mechanical bull. Their prices are fair. Staff are super welcoming for a club with a lot of regulars. They have various line dancing classes through the week. Even weekly classes for beginners. Lots of pool tables. Very spacious. And, most importantly, they play country music pretty much all the time. So, grab your boots and your friends. Would recommend coming here for anyone visiting or in the area that likes country music. read more

The Stockyard - the front of the store - Bars Near Me - Holiday, Florida

I had a great time at The Stockyard last night. Staff was very friendly, both the woman at the front door and the bartender who served me. Bathroom was very clean. Drinks seemed very reasonably priced. I found the patrons friendly and accommodating. Being unfamiliar with country line dancing, I danced near the ones who looked like they knew what they were doing and copied their steps. None of the dancers seemed to mind that I didn't know any of the dances. The entrance fee of $5 seemed very reasonable for the experience. The dance instructor taught very few dances between 7:30 and 9:30PM but I didn't mind; I actually preferred when he wasn't teaching and I could just copy what others were doing. Most of the patrons were wearing blue jeans or denim shorts. About half were wearing cowboy boots. Different styles of footwear and shirts were worn. I felt comfortable being dressed differently than everyone else and no one seemed to mind that I wore a mask. read more

Let me start off by saying I am NOT a country fan I went to the stockyard to try something new with some coworkers. If you're into country line dancing, this is your hot spot. We went on a Friday night because Josh Gracin was playing. I was told by frequent flyers that the night to go is SATURDAY. If you're looking for a little more life to your party, Saturdays are for you. Drinks were very well priced and far from stingy on the liquor paid about $10 for a signature cocktail and then a vodka soda. Concert ticket was $17 but I heard cover is usually $10 but free after 9. Always call to double check just in case there's an event & you have to pay. Parking is vast because it's within a strip mall. From the outside, it's an eye sore. But on the inside, it is MASSIVE and remodeled. The description is a bit misleading....it says 'dance club' but it should say line Dancing club. The dance floor is huge but it isn't for those looking to get down to their favorite song. It is full of only line dancers. I must stay: it was fun learning a line dance. read more

I went to Stockyard Friday night for a concert and had a great time. Located in a plaza there is plenty of parking. We got tickets ahead of time that were $15 and reasonably priced. We arrived a little early to grab some drinks. The drink prices were decent too, like less than $7 for a whiteclaw. The dancing was great to observe and they have classes too for those wanting to learn. The concert was awesome and the artist they brought was super talented. He even brought a special guest star on stage. The place was super clean and everyone friendly. My only note was the sound system was a little off so it was hard to hear when the artist was talking. Overall I had a great night and enjoyed Stockyard! read more

The Stockyard is an average country dance club located in a strip mall in Holiday. Nothing too flashy just a decent sized dance floor with bar stools around it and a Bar. Nothing extravagant or crazy cool like some of the multi level country dance clubs with mechanical bulls. A solid 2.5 stars mostly for size and drink prices. Unlimited draft beer for $9 and unlimited well drinks for $14. The cost is free to get in after 9pm. 7:30 - 9 is line dance lessons which is $5. The age range at this club is very diverse. The night I was there it was mostly 20 year olds and 60 year olds with not a lot in between. Line Dancing is calling your name and this is all that you will see there. EVEN with the slow romantic songs this place says yeehaw another line dance! I would have gone to 3 maybe even 4 stars but the DJ they hired plays RAP music about every 3rd or 4th song which was extremely nauseating to me. I come to a country bar to listen to country music not rap! It was so bad by 1am I couldn't take it anymore and left. Look! If I wanted to listen to rap I would have went to an entirely different club. Besides, how dumb do you look trying to country line dance in cowboy boots to rap?? I can't even.... This is possibly a one and done for me. But it was fun while it lasted read more

county music and the values should be A-1. I am 29 years old and went to a concert here one time and a GROWN ass man didn't like that I asked him to move over a tad bit bc I'm only 5'4 and he was 6'0 +. I couldn't see. I had two drinks, but no where near drunk. (bouncer told me I was and that could have been arrested)..but came up to me after the show-bc I had to wait for my ride who was still inside...- that it wasn't his fault. if he didn't kick me out the guy who hit me would have complained and he was a regular so he had to make him happy this man yelled and screamed in my face and shoved me. I told him do not touch me and he did it again. I ended up getting kicked out because I made a scene because I was not putting up with a grown ass man shoving me (by grown, he had to have been 50's ) I paid for a meet and greet and didn't get to do that bc the bouncer removed me. I promise, if you are coming to this area, PLEASE look into going to the Dallas Bull in Tampa. it is a tad bit farther but SO much more worth it Go see Webb at the Dallas Bull, tell him Blondie sent you. btw, my rating is 0 stars but I had to post something. read more

Tom Terrific here with another honest review. A gigantic country dance club with a stage for up-and-coming stars. This is the biggest shit kickin' club in the Tampa area. I'm not much for country music but i love to dance so went there expecting to work the room and get some moves on. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~WRONG~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here's what you dancers need to know...... There's a ton of fine fillies there all dressed in their ranch wear. The male competition is not overwhelming so you have good odds. BUT: IT'S LINE DANCING 100% OF THE TIME. I kept waiting for a rocking country song so i could dance but the songs they played were mid tempo tunes and for me was boring. Since real men don't line dance i made my exit. read more

Food was good. Ambience was really cool and I liked the live music. I will be back.

This was our second trip to this club while we are on vacation in Florida which we do several times a year. Unfortunately they allow children under the age of 21 into the club. We felt like we were at a high school dance. No dance etiquette. And the music is definitely not a country bar. If you're seeking a country bar to country dance at this is not it and we will not be back. It is unfortunate as the set up is a great large protected dance floor and clean bathrooms great parking and excellent location too bad they don't run it like a country bar. read more

The Stockyard - Bars Near Me - Holiday, Florida

One of the great country bars in the area. Tuesday's they do beginning line dancing lessons. Bar is huge and drinks are flowing.

Great place to go line dancing. Strong drinks and nice staff. Lots of fun on Thursdays and Saturday's

Security guards act like drill Sargent every time I go I get bossed around so much it's not even fun got yelled at for waiting by the bathrooms for my girlfriend after being there for less then 5 minutes place is a joke they take there job way too seriously shits sad they don't let anyone have fun place sucks on so many levels!!! read more

Whilst you're having fun learning new moves, the management tells you to leave because they don't want anyone to "have fun" not a good spot. I'll never go back. My friends and I were having a great time & they shut that down so I'll go somewhere else. I don't recommend it. read more

As a very ethnic woman, I was fairly hesitant based on the reviews BUT I had a great time! The people there are more then friendly. Super fun time. I've gone a few times and can't wait to go back. There is no food, for those wanting to know but they have really good drinks for those that do. I got treated well and so did my friend's. The dj and instructors are sweet. Men are very respectful. Happy to have found a new fun place! read more

What a great venue for music and dancing! Over 18,000 square feet with a dance floor that is over 3,000 sf. We first visited this honky tonk on Dec. 15, 2017 for a show featuring "A Thousand Horses" with Randall Marvel opening. A Thousand Horses is my favorite Southern Rock/Country Rock band, so we were thrilled to get to see them in such an intimate venue. Mr. Marvel has written several hit songs and been in Nashville over 20 years--great singer/songwriter! The Stockyard also has an area called the Whiskey Bar which is open for VIP ticket holders for many shows. That provides food, the private bar yielded near split-second service (and Lord knows you can't let that whiskey run dry!), and private restrooms. Our server, the Little Elf known as 'Ana Lisa', is most personable, attentive, and courteous. The view isn't as good from there, but it's a great respite from the dance floor or standing in front of the bandstand. I highly and heartily recommend this facility--so much that I've already bought our VIP tickets to Carly Pearce on January 27, 2018. See you there, //s// Cap'n Tie Dye! read more

The bar it's self is fun, the dancing is a blast and it's well maintained as far as cleanliness, however the staff is ALWAYS rude!

I thought this place was pretty cool. If you go before 9pm cover is $5, & the line dancing instructor teaches some dances to the songs. He does a great job but newbies beware: it's hard to pick up on the steps regardless of who's teaching! If you're looking to dance like you're at a "normal" club this place isn't for you; everyone on the dance floor was only line dancing (at least while I was there). I didn't drink when I went out, but it didn't seem like many of the bars were open. Bathrooms were pretty clean. It's not too crowded if you go earlier. Overall it's a pretty cool atmosphere, something different & fun to do on the weekend. read more

I love coming here!! The dances are so fun and the people are great. It is non-smoking so that is a plus. The downfalls are that if you dont get there early you won't have a seat and the bartenders dont really pay attention to you, only the frequent fliers. Takes too long at the bar in my opinion. But overall fun place to hangout with friends. read more

This bar is ok inside, a lot of room for dancing, but not too many seats. Reminds me of a warehouse. Right when I walked through the door the bouncer greeted me and my friends in an extremely rude way. Almost proceeded to take my ID because he thought it was fake because I am from Oregon. The whole time he was not friendly at all. When I left they almost refused to give me my ID back. They also proceeded to be EXTREMELY rude to my boyfriend and I. And after his brother tried to defend him and got kicked out of the bar for saying nothing more than a comeback to his slander. I recommend you pick and cheaper, better, and friendly bar. Not to mention the music was horrible and people look sloppy drunk. You can almost tell the bouncers have favorites. Mostly trashy girls. But I mean nothing that I didn't expect. I hope this bar hires REAL security not some low life camo wearing hicks who get pleasure from having just a tiny little bit of power!! read more

Line Dance instructor does a great job. Was disappointed no draft beer available on the Friday night I was there. I hope when I go in the future they have draft. Bar staff was friendly. I was surprised no wait staff worked the floor. I was required to go to the bar to refresh my drinks. Bouncers were nice. Metal detection wand at the door seemed a little extreme for the mellow crowd that was in attendance. Was surprised by the signs stating clothing requirements that were not upheld by the establishment. I did enjoy the establishment had no smoking inside. read more

I won tickets to a Beach Party themed Kenny Chesney tribute. My daughter got in trouble for touching the sand. Then line dancing for the first 2 hours and the band started an hour late. Then one girl comes in with a strobe ring that she was asked to turn off and she wouldn't. Had to leave as strobes can make me have a seizure. Glad we didn't have to pay the cover charge. read more
