I bet the owners kicked themselves everyday after quitting their restaurant in Spanish Springs. It was extremely popular both as a restaurant and as a bar.
If they had renewed their lease with the Developer and would have paid more in rent, that easily could have been made up for by raising prices 50 cents or a dollar on meals and 25 cents on beer.
Well, they had their chance and blew it big time. You would have thought that the owners would have realized that location is everything! The Villages is a great location. The outskirts of Lady Lake - not great for a restaurant with poor service.
The service was probably poor because their employees (with children) from the Spanish Springs restaurant would lose their right to send their children to The Villages Charter School - so they found other jobs inside The Villages.
