Default Place to Meet
My friend lives in Tampa and I live here in The Villages. Where can we meet in the middle?

You might want to check The Villages Gourmet Club page for restaurant ideas. We liked Dade City and Kafe Kokopelli.

I think I missed the joke. Dade city is 50 miles from The Villages and 38 from Tampa; the six mile difference could disappear depending on exactly where in The Villages and Tampa everyone is starting from.

What is the halfway point between Tampa and The Villages?

Brooksville came up. Driven through there many times but never stopped.

This gets very good ratings at TripAdvisor-- Outstanding Southern Cooking Lunch Menu at Florida Cracker Kitchen

We have friends in Tampa and we meet at Kafe Kokopelli every couple months. May not be exactly a middle but the food is good and the atmosphere gives us some quiet privacy to catch up.

My friend and I always meet at Wiregrass Mall, or the Lutz Outlet area.
Same travel distance for both (approximately) and lots of choices.
