"Gun free zone" where only the criminals are going to carry guns. I may have to find other restaurants that do not want their customers defenseless. Luckily these signs carry no weight under the law and can just be ignored by those that conceal carry.
§ 790.06. License to carry concealed weapon or concealed firearm.
12(a) A license issued under this section does not authorize any person to openly carry a handgun or carry a concealed weapon or concealed firearm into:
12. Any portion of an establishment licensed to dispense alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises, which portion of the establishment is primarily devoted to such purpose;
So the bar area within the restaurant is off limits for handguns while the other dining areas are fine. Also since 790.06 (12)(a) does not mention rifles, it appears to me that they are welcome.
§ 790.053 Open carrying of weapons.
This law was ruled unconstitutional and struck down in the 9/2025 McDaniels v State of Florida by the Forida 1st District Court of Appeals. It is no longer enforceable, but it sounds important because it's on a sign.

What a fun atmosphere! We visited on a Friday night and this place was super busy, but in a good way. A great place to hang with friends and grab a drink and good food. Make sure to get the Cheese and Ale Crock! For dinner I had the Fish and Chips and my husband had the Pub Trinity - a trio of Bangers and Mash, Irish Stew and Shepher's Pie. Everything was seasoned and cooked perfectly, and my old fashioned were delicious. We'll be back to work our way through the menu!

First time visiting this location, and it did not disappoint. Our waiter was fully committed to his role and eager to share the history of the pub along with food and drink recommendations, which made the experience even better. I ordered the 18-cent bean soup and the Kilkenny sandwich—a solid 10/10. The meat was incredibly tender and literally melted in my mouth.
My husband had the shrimp and crab cake sandwich. While he rated it an 8/10 due to the sandwich being a bit mushy, he still enjoyed the great flavor and generous portions of seafood.
Overall, a wonderful first visit—and we definitely plan to go back! 🍽️✨

One of my family's absolute favorite places to go, year round. The food is excellent, the service is great. If you do choose to check this place out, make sure you add on the 18 cent bean soup. We just went their recently, and I'm already looking forward to the next visit!

There was a problem with the carbonation in my adult beverage, they tried to solve it but were unsuccessful. The server said, "im too but to deal with it but ill tell the manager. "Noone resolved the issue and the manager came by AFTER the meal( we had mentioned it again) and I told her to not bother at that point.
We had to be moved from a very noisy table where we couldn't hear ourselves talking.
This is a popular venue and we arrived early 4pm to get a seat( tried a few days before and couldn't get in). I was very disappointed in the way my problem was(nt) handled and the attitude we got when we asked to move away from the noisy table ( we had only been there 5 minutes at that point).
Make sure to try there cup of .18 center beans if you go here.
