Looking for a Bar or Nightclub
 
Nothing sleazy (well not too sleazy I guess), adults only (don't care to hear or see children). Nothing I've experienced in any of the squares has what I'm looking for unless I missed one.
Full service please as I enjoy a good Bourbon.
The only way I can describe what I'm looking for is this... if Dean Martin walked in and liked what he saw. We'll that's the kind of place I'm looking for. I'd be willing to drive a few hours if need be. I'd just like a fun place to unwind and enjoy.
Thanks in advance. = )

Wow. There is no shortage of bars in The Villages. Most are too noisy for me. If I were Dean Martin and had to stay in The Villages, I would probably go to The Chop House. You could also try Mezza Luna in Colony Plaza when they have a guy playing music. I like it because it is not too loud. But, for a real nightclub, you may need to go to Ocala or Orlando.

Mezza Luna is more a restaurant. So I guess the hunt is on for a nightclub. None of the bars in the Villages appeal to me.
Thanks

Have you tried the Sip Restaurant and Jazz in downtown Leesburg?

No I haven't but the pics looks like it has possibilities. Years ago there was a place in Inverness but sadly they shut down. Subdued lighting, seriously good bartenders, a piano, few tables but a slew of secluded booths. It was fantastic.

Unfortunately, it looks like Sip may have just gone out of business this week.

My understanding is that Margarita Republic in Spanish Springs is a nightclub after 9:00.

Not really but thank you.

GarVino's in Lake Sumter Landing has a wine and beer bar with entertainment.
Cozy/Cheers like.

If you manage to find one please let me know. These other places are SO boring and drab, not to mention most of the bartenders have no clue how to make a proper drink.

9pm.... so laughable NYE must be a total blah....

If you really want a place to go to that's classy, you can go to Bernes steakhouse in Tampa, they have an upstairs for drinks and desserts . A little further is Clearwater with a few places more for partying but now that it's not summer it might be quiet. Enjoy the ride.
