We stopped there before we went to a play at the Melon Patch Theater. We were greeted warmly and waited on promptly. The young lady did an exceptional job! She was the only server, and although it wasn’t busy when we got there, it filled up fast! The food came out hot and fresh! Definitely will be returning to have other things on the menu!

Nice place, kind of a dive bar, but in a good way. Excellent craft beer selection, 20 taps, nice selection. The service is really good! I didn’t try the food but it looks good.

Just a cool spot, like I was far away from FL…surely nothing I’ve seen back when I lived in SWFL. Not too far outside The Villages FL in Leesburg. Great smash burger, drinks, and vibe. Very casual, fun….. Gotta get the secret word and find speak-easy too.

Interesting interior. Seating along wall with bench seating is strangely designed. When you sit on bench and someone sits across from you, you look down on them because you sit so high up on the bench, your legs uncomfortably are under the table. On positive note, we were warmly greeted and received very personalized service by our server. He made our meal so fun. We would return but try different items on menu. Only thing that was a bother was the kitchen staff playing loud music in the kitchen and joking around/speaking very loudly to each other which conflicted with music being played in dining/bar area. Staff should be mindful of their interactions with each other when are customers in house. This ruins the experience for customers which is the whole point of having a food service business. Like I said, we’d certainly give it another try.

I travel frequently for work and make it a priority to support locally owned restaurants whenever possible. I first visited on Thanksgiving and was so impressed with the experience that I returned over the weekend for lunch prior to a job. The lunchtime atmosphere was calm and enjoyable—exactly what I was looking for that day. My Thanksgiving visit was equally enjoyable, and I especially appreciate the establishment’s ability to transition seamlessly from a relaxed daytime setting to a more upscale evening bar scene, all while maintaining attentive and professional service.
During my initial visit, I was served by a gentleman with a red beard and tattoos who embodied a classic, old-school bartender presence—something that feels increasingly rare. He was personable, engaging, and brought a memorable sense of humor that enhanced the overall atmosphere. Notably, he handled an uncomfortable situation between two customers with professionalism and composure, which reflected very positively on the establishment. I had hoped to see him again during my recent visit, though he was not there. If he is no longer with the restaurant, he certainly left a lasting impression.
The food was exceptional. He recommended the smash burger during my first visit, and I chose to order it again; it fully lived up to expectations. I look forward to returning the next time I am in town.

Mystery Date is all it said on our shared calendar. I didn’t put it there. My wife did.

All I was told was to wear nice pants, shoes, and shirt. A proper hat would be also appreciated.

We drove with not a word indicating what was ahead, by that I mean my wife drove. Drove past numerous places that I thought we could have stopped at. We didn’t. I hate surprises.

Enter Leesburg. We drove down Main Street looking for a place to pull in and park. I love Leesburg. Many past and recent fond memories here. Heck, I’m the city’s Santa. It still looks essentially the same except more people are out and about and having fun. We park.

We walk down a sidewalk, I say that I’m not sure where I’m going? My wife says that’s right. Her eyes smile. Pizza. I smell pizza wafting in the air. We stop and enter. It’s a very small pizza shop. Nothing spectacular here to see, looks like good pizza, but all this mystery seems out of place just for pizza sold by the slices.

I am handed a torn piece of paper before we left our parking spot. She tells me to open it now. She tells me to speak the phrase, a 1980s phrase known by many then, to any of the three people working in the pizzeria. I am not at liberty to repeat it here. I say it with the enthusiasm as it was once said years ago in a commercial. There is a pause.

One of the restauranteurs looks at me, looks to his right and then left, then looks cautiously out the front door as if he is expecting someone. Or doesn’t want to be seen.

The man walks to a late 80s Coca Cola soda can machine, it’s lit up. He pulls the lock mechanism and it swings forward, he motions to go in quietly. I felt that I was joining Hogan’s Heroes and entering Stalag 13.

We enter and find a bar and a few chairs, sparse to say the least, and that makes it more alluring. And alcohol. Quality alcohol.

She did it. My beautiful wife surprised me by clandestinely getting me into a Speakeasy. In Leesburg. Well done.

Menus are older looking, stained, burnt around the edges. Fun. We order a drink. She pulls out a paper. Well worn, folded repeatedly, and with pencil marks. She looks at me and says, choose a number from one to four.

Easy. Two. It’s the two of us.

She opens part of the paper still concealing the bottom half. Number two was I got to choose from a selection of three restaurants. There is one I have never ate at. Marmaduke’s Lodge. We will go there. It’s practically next door and is actually owned by the same people who own the pizzeria and speakeasy.

I’m buzzing with excitement now. This is fun.

We sit at a table while a good guitarist sets up and we order, drink, and enjoy something new: Bison meatballs. Delicious. The paper is pulled out again. I have three choices: dessert location.

After a great day, my wife explains that this has been in the works for weeks. That she heard about the speakeasy and how each week they change the password. She called them earlier today because the new password hadn’t been posted to date. Persistence in life is key.

Well done dear. Well done indeed.

If you are looking for something fun and different to do in North Lake County, then pick up a Style Magazine and follow their story. If you go, mention “Santa” but never, ever tell the Coppers or Revenuers.

And I never told you about it.

Got awesome quick service. Great bartenders that has an open front to just chill or a great little inside bar. Thanks to Emily for an awesome experience.

Very happy I was shown this place. It is actually one of the very best spots in town. They have one of the very best burgers around, and it’s only $9 on thursdays. The bison meatballs are very good, and the $1 wings on Sunday is a great deal. Drinks are great, atmosphere is great, and the guys that work here are very cool. Attached is also the best pizza joint in the area when it’s open.

I was skeptical, until I tried the food.
The fried green beans were perfectly cooked and had a nice crunch. The black and blue burger was delicious, the bun was grilled to perfection and the blue cheese crumbles were lovely. I also tried the loaded fries and they were awesome!

Corn beef Fritters aren’t on the menu all the time but man they should be! It was our first time in, my S. O picked here to celebrate his birthday and the food itself was really good. The elk in the mac and cheese was very tender. Our only complaint was the service, as our server didn’t right down our order for the 4 of us and when he brought out our food he realized he forgot to put in the elk mac n cheese. As we are also servers we can recognize where it went wrong after he said ” it will be out in 2 min” and that 2 min turned into 15-20 min and the rest of us were almost done eating when he brought it out. He stayed in the kitchen for almost the entire time after dropping off our food and we can to catch someone else to bring us refills on our Drinks. Other than that everything was great.

Also gator bites ..Definitely order them!
