Smile Billy's is open!

Let my fingers do the walking and called them.

They are still open, said the sign blew down.

You can put them back on the list.

We have done the "coupon" special at Burkes BBQ on 466A and the coffee is free until 10M. The food was good and the regular prices seemed reasonable. Watch for the coupons in the Daily Sun.

If you like something different from all the rest and like fresh fruit with breakfast I highly recommend First Watch.

get in you car and get outside The Villages. Best around hands down is Rae Raes and Fruitland Park Cafe. Do not be put off by the look of Fruitland Park Cafe as we were for years till friends encouraged us to go. Friendliest people you'll find anywhere. Serve yourself coffee from the coffee station 50 cent unlimited and good. Food is excellent and so reasonable. A good old neighborhood diner open only till 2PM If you go for lunch try their Panko breaded shrimp, huge and delicious, you get 13 of them for $8.95 with 2 sides. Rae Raes is great also best homemade biscuits anywhere try the blueberry ones. Corned beef hash is homemade and incredible. Tim the owner is wonderful.

Yeah to BOB EVANS! For about 2 years, we have complained to them that their "new" coffee was awful and bitter - why did you change?" After about 45 years (from Ohio) going to BOB EVANS, we no longer enjoyed our coffee with breakfast, but "suffered thru it", because we love BOB EVANS! Last week, sent my 3rd protest and said "if you will not change back to your good coffee, then at the very least, give us some flavored creamers!" This very morning, to our SURPRISE, all tables at breakfast had FLAVORED CREAMERS!! Also, they are changing their old coffee on Thursday!! Who says it doesn't work to complain -- like to feel it WORKED THIS TIME!!!

I'm surprised that no one mentioned the Cottage Inn, 340 S US 27/441 in Lady Lake, just south of 466. Not as good as Rae Rae's imho, but still good. It's got a following among the locals because they're friendly and give great service.

Truth be told I'm recommending a place I have never been.

The Original Brooklyn Water Bagel Co. - Bagels - Lady Lake, FL - Reviews - Photos - Yelp

I have to go this week.

I was just at Billys last week - I hope they were just closed for the day or afternoon. I know they only serve breakfast and lunch. Anyone else know?
