3 spots
Broken Strings Taproom
A neighborhood craft beer room on West Church Street with rotating taps rather than a fixed lineup, now run by Three Odd Guys Brewing of Apopka after the original closed in January 2025 and reopened that March. Hours flex around soccer games, downtown concerts and whatever else is on.
Hamilton's Kitchen
The restaurant of The Alfond Inn, owned by Rollins College, which sends the hotel's net income to student scholarships and hangs more than 400 works of contemporary art on its walls. Chef Antwan Ellis cooks Florida Southern with local ingredients.
Jenny's Eat Drink Socialize
A Southern restaurant and lounge on West Church Street that shows local artists in its own gallery, turns cozy and intimate at night, and runs a Soul Train Sunday buffet on selected Sundays. Saturday brunch is bottomless small plates.
