Last of the vanishing Old Florida roadhouses from the '30's. On old 301s. Snowbirds, Regulars, Stop-Bys always welcome. Eclectic interior, restrooms. Very friendly barkeeps, owner, and clientele. Well-known for superior burgers (fresh ground beef every day), chili, and cheesesteaks. Quite cold beer and wine only. Monthly party with owner donated main dish and pot-luck/dish-to-pass brought by attendees. Very inexpensive. Good juke. No trouble. No problems.
Summer hours 9am-11pm. Otherwise 7am-11pm
