Absolutely gas, need to keep moving, no time for charging a cart.

Should be sometime this week. Looks like they are finishing up and getting ready for their opening

[JKELLYNY]

Doesn’t the distance depend upon where you live in The Villages? If it’s too far for you shut up & don’t go, no one will miss you. It’s not all about you!

From their Facebook page a day ago.

We are close to finishing but unfortunately we had some delays and minor setbacks
We hope to have an update next week!!!!

Almost there!!!!!

Thank you all for your support and we can’t wait to open and serve you!!!!

The essence of their menu has been on The Villages Gourmet Club website for many months. They predict a March 2022 opening. Villagers in Marion County only have 3 nearby restaurants to choose from. If run correctly, this will be a welome addition to our choices. I for one will patronize it.

I never go to the gourmet club for some reason. I did a search and found 3 different restaurants called the Back Porch all with very different menus.

Not for us up in the northern section. Peace and quiet up here when the snowbirds are in town too.

And so much in The Villages "might as well be Mars" for we in the north. We need restaurants up here too.

Must all restaurants be in the center of the Villages??

Because otherwise, "most restaurants" are a little far ("might as well be Mars") for "most Villagers". Sorry it is too far for you. Sorry you felt the need to gripe about our at last having one or two restaurants within a 10 minute drive of our house.

Sounds like food trucks are your choice picks for a night out.

You had a Cody's in the same building and not enough people patronized it.
Same thing will unfortunately happen to The Back Porch . Hopefully it will be around for a while. They need to open it soon before the seasonal people go back up north.
