Hmmm. Thanks for the info, spk7951.
I have to say I'm surprised. The Priority Pool Program is still less expensive than maintaining my own pool -- PLUS, they bring me food and drinks! lol

The structure to the left as you enter the road to Bonifay sure looks like what you see at other priority pool locations. Guess we'll stop and take peek on our next trip to Bonifay.

Pretty sure that is the pool ! It has a very large bar area and nice view.

Golf-Tinker, that's what we thought. There's a large dressing room area and shiny (water?) behind the bushes. On closer inspection, the dressing rooms turned out to be a golf cart garage, and the shiny area was the wet driveway into the building.

Mudder, did we look in the wrong place? Is there another place for the pool? A bar area with a nice view would certainly be a bonus!

Keep in mind, we went searching for the pool after enjoying dinner and happy hour, and it was dark outside. We could have missed it. The good news is that we found our car.

Fernandia pool to the left of Bonifay restaurant is neighborhood pool. We did not see a pool AT Bonifay CC. We also heard there would be less pools at CCs because they are not being used. We had dinner at Bonifay on Tuesday night. Had the fish and chips and a cup of crab&corn chowder, very good. Had a glass of Pinot Grigio on happy hour (wonderful). At 5PM they ran out of white house wines (all) and the more expensive wines would not be happy hour priced. Not a problem, it is a soft opening to work out kinks. Neighbors went to dinner there Wednesday night, still no house white wines (All). The truck hadn't arrived. Hello, Publix is down the road! I'm sure kinks will be worked out before the 28th. Had great service from Dan.

The two of us went for lunch on Monday. Food was okay but long wait for the soup. Server explained that the kitchen staff got in late and they were still warming everything up. Soup came after about 30-40 minutes followed almost immediately by the entree. Our ticket was added up wrong and had to be corrected after we pointed out the mistake.

Our golf group wanted to go on Tuesday for lunch so I went along. Servers explained that they were out of beef dishes including the hamburgers and some sandwiches. Some ordered fish and chips. What they got was nothing like what I had the previous day (looked much better/different batter/bigger portion). My fish sandwich had very little fish.

Both days, the front of the house staff was very friendly and attentive. Kitchen still needs work. But that's what soft openings are for. Don't think we'll be back until after they really open.

can you get menus for all the country clubs online?

Had lunch on Thursday. Nice looking place but pretty noisey. Lunch selections were French Dip and Rueben Sandwiches. The beef on the French Dip tased foul to both of us. Either loaded with preservatives, spoiled or simply from a cheap prepared piece of beef. The Rueben had Saurkraut that was very bland tasting, and corned beef that Toojays would be embarassed to serve. They also neglected to include the Russian dressing on the sandwich so I asked for a side and spread it myself. Far too long a drive for the kind of mediocre food we were served.

We had a group of 28 at bonifay Saturday night. We started getting there at 4:00 for drinks. We sat out on the patio where the bar is. We were being seated as the tables became available. By about 6:00, we all had a table. We all ordered drinks & meals. Many different items were ordered. Everything was delicious. No one complained about anything. We had Sheryll & Gail as servers & they did a fabulous job !!

Save yourself. If you think Havana is bad, wait until you try Bonifay..... I think they run a close race. I can only hope that their "soft opening" will encourage them to offer a better menu with better food an service. I'm really wondering about those who are raving over the quality of the food there???? Ummmmmmm

Our group thought it was good.

Just came from Bonifay, my birthday dinner. Not so impressed. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing. I had the shrimp/scallops scampi(minus the mussels, I don't like them), thought it was very bland. The key lime martini was good had two of them. The place was extremely noisy I have to say. Ordered an appetizer of coconut shrimp, brought our dinners out, no appetizer. Fork was sticky/dirty, waitress took them away, brought our food, forgot the new silverware, I ate my dinner with my hubby's fork since he had fish and chips he used his fingers. Couldn't get a waitress to stop and give us new silverware. Again I wasn't impressed.

We will be in Charlotte so we decided in our few days in TV last week, to try Bonifay. One day we had drinks and I have to say, the choice of house wine is almost the worst, however,lunch was excellent. I had the grilled fish of the day and it could not have been prepared better.
We are looking forward to it being the l coal "Cheers" or in our case "Chucks)

4 of us had a great dinner at Bonifay. Good food, fair price and nice service
