Orlando Suggestions

Heading to Orlando later this week to meet up with family and do the Disney thing. Any suggestions on nightlife ? Me and a few guys are looking for cigar bars or places for a cigar . My wife and I looking for some cool bars or restaurants at night. This group is always the best for this kind of information. Thanks guys

Corona Cigar Co on west sand lake in Dr Phillips is my favorite place. Huge cigar and drink selections. Even some out door tables in front. You will not be disappointed.

That area has some nice restaurants but I can't speak to the nightlife

In Orlando as we speak and second the Corona Cigar co on Sand Lake. Great selection of cigars and beverages. Try the Drew Estates Florida Sun Grown, very nice smoke.

The Boathouse at Disney Springs great restaurant. Sosa cigars on the West End of Disney Springs, buy a cigar, go to the small Cuban cafe across from Sosa have a cup of Cuban Coffee and light up. One of the few places to have a cigar at Disney. I do this while the wife shops.

Wow so many things to do. Slueths Mystery Dinner is fun. Riding the big eye next to there is interesting. The Disney shopping areas is fun at night. Universal has good night life. So many things to do. My wife and daughter went off today to a place to hold alligators . We were at the beach this morning. We do all kinds of things around here, so much to choose from.

Don't go downtown for entertainment.

Orlando obviously does tourism very well, so stick to those places even for nightlife.

There are some pockets of nice areas here and there outside of the tourist areas, but otherwise Orlando is pretty crummy.

If you are able to leave the tourist enclave spend an evening in Winter Park. Lots of restaurants but if you aren’t hungry it’s great for an evening stroll and some ice cream.
