First and foremost, the “host” for Bingo Night must believe since I’m someone of COLOR that I wouldn’t know the songs to play Bingo - when I in fact knew the names of most the tunes he played. He went around giving everyone a Bingo card except me. Distasteful, disrespectful, and very much so typical Ocala racism.
**But had the FULL audacity to play songs ft Ludacris, Michael Jackson, etc., make it make sense.
My server was sweet. She was tending to so many tables but she was still as attentive as she could be.
The Robin grilled cheese was pretty good but the fries - oh my gracious the fries are bland. The fries resulted in a low rating.
Decent atmosphere but obviously not the place for individuals with melanated skin.
I came for the AYCD wine but they didn’t have my preferred wine so I went with the Wild Blueberry Cider - can’t go wrong with a cider.
I, personally, cannot recommend this place based off my experience BUT I won’t steer people from giving it a chance. They got my money but it’s certainly the last.

Amazing experience. My wife and I came here at a pretty busy time and our server, Sarah greeted us and was wonderful. She was super friendly and gave us great drink recommendations. Our food and drinks were great and service was fast. Loved the pretzels.

Great drinks and food with friendly staff. The food is not your typical pub food. It is higher quality. I had a very good buffalo flat bread and my wife had Mac and Cheese with broccoli added. Price was a value. Drinks were strong and the beer cold. Also, dog friendly.

Visited a local state park and wanted a bite to eat. The outside of the place looked great but it was inside that didn't make it. First, ate at the bar with wind that blew everything onto the floor. Another craft beer bar that you never know what it will taste like and no regular beers. Tried the gator bites app. Well, it doesn't taste like chicken and the burt grease taste was not good either. Tried the smash burger and wraw fries. Yes, I think they coated the fries in flower and they were not cooked inside. I would not eat them. The burger well it was not double grounded so it really wasn't a smash burger. The 12 people at the bar with one bar tender while the server had no customers tells you the service was ok. Would not recommend the place unless you fancy animal heads and sports tvs.
