The Imperial at Washburn Imports is a unique bar concept. In the daytime, it is Washburn Imports,…read morean antique store that sells a variety of furniture and other items. At night, it becomes a full-service bar with speciality cocktails, friendly staff, and great energy. My go-to drink at the time is the Stoner Bashing Thyme cocktail, which is a refreshing and amazing mix of Angostura Rum, stone fruit purée, Falernum, lemongrass-thyme-schizanda syrup, fresh lemon, lime, and orange. The bar is unique and provides a great experience every time you go. If the speciality cocktails aren't your thing, they feature numerous drafts, whiskeys, and wines as well. If you're in Downtown Historic Sanford, give Imperial a try; you wont regret it. The bar is hardly ever busy so expect prompt service from the bartenders, and for your thirst to be satisfied quickly.

Cool bar located in downtown Sanford. I have been to their Ivanhoe location numerous times, but a…read morefew weeks ago was my first visit here. The bar is also part of a furniture shop. Be careful where you put your drink, especially without a coaster as there is good chance that table you are setting it on is for sale. You may come for a drink and leave with a new piece of furniture for your house... On this visit I got one of their special drinks of the day. It was a variation on the Manhattan. It was ok, I think the bartender made it well, I was just not a fan of the flavoring. Sounded better than it was. It is a cool spot to hangout for a drink or two and worth a visit next time in Sanford.

We came here from my friends breakfast brunch and I'm so glad she chose this restaurant. I was happy to see the unique dishes they offered. It was really hard to decide on what I wanted to eat with all the tempting options. I settled on chilaquiles because this dish is very hard to find. I am so glad I chose it as it hit the spot. It paired nicely with the bottomless mimosas and sangrias. Their restaurant is beautiful and has many photo worthy spots. They also have a bar towards the back of the restaurant and patio seedings as well. This place was located in downtown Sanford and gives you an opportunity to walk off all the delicious food you just inhaled. I definitely want to revisit this location and try the rest of the menu.

I arrived…read morewith my friends and girlfriend, bringing a party nearly ten people deep, and we were fortunate enough to have our own table for the evening. The drinks were reasonably priced, beautifully presented, and genuinely delicious--an unusually powerful combination in the world of enchanted cocktails. The menu also changes frequently, with the offerings themed around different events and occasions, which gives each visit the feeling of opening a new spellbook. As a witch doctor in search of the perfect concoction to summon a certain deity, I sampled the offerings with great determination. Though the deity remained elusive, the drinks certainly brought the evening to life. The atmosphere was welcoming, the service was enjoyable, and the experience made for a memorable night with good company. If you're looking for delicious drinks, fair prices, and a menu with a little theatrical magic, the Capital Room is well worth visiting. Just be careful what you order--the next cocktail may awaken something ancient.

It's very Trader Sam's, including a lot of neat Disney memorabilia on the shelves on the walls behind the bar. Dark and stormy tiki bar vibes.

You can come and enjoy a nice drink without getting alcohol. We also ordered a burger from their limited food menu. It was very good. Not in competition for best burger in Orlando or anything, but the flavors were on point, and bun was nice and soft, and the furikake dusted crinkle cut fries were the perfect side item. Overall, this place was very cool, and if you haven't come here yet, you need to.
