Description:
INTERNATIONAL DRIVE. A taste of the Islands – in Orlando! With a selection of more than 50 beers and numerous tropical drinks (such as their signature Bahamarita) it's no wonder that locals flock here. The restaurant doesn't accept reservations, and there tends to be a wait. Just order a drink, settle yourself on the roomy porch, and listen to the live reggae band. Casual attire. |

Dexter's of Winter Park |
|
(Nightlife - Bars) |
|
558 W New England Ave, Winter Park 32789 407-645-5006 |
 |
| |
Description:
WINTER PARK. Dexter's truly feels like a neighborhood bar "where everybody knows your name." Live bands, often covering oldies or classic rock, play here Thursday through Saturday nights, and the food – ginger-orange braised beef short ribs, for example – is more haute cuisine than bar munchies. Plus, the bartenders, who have a faction of adoring regulars, shake up the best margarita ("The Golden") you'll ever taste. |

Eye Spy |
|
(Nightlife - Bars) |
|
14 W Washington St, Orlando 32801 407-246-1419 |
 |
| |
Description:
DOWNTOWN. Who says you outgrow hide-and-seek? At this downtown bar, you'll want to evade the cameras and two-way mirrors before sneaking into the photo booth. Located between two clubs, the Independent and Bar-BQ, the spot's marked by an intentionally misleading sign with Chinese letters. The dark interior appears small, but extra rooms lurk behind the bookcases. Jukebox tunes play most nights of the week, but on weekends DJs provide the entertainment. |
