I finally came here after hearing about this place from a few people and I would like to touch on a few topics about this... place. Overall I give it 3 stars but there were definitely some good, some bad and some ugly. The good: the food was prettydarn good overall and there was a pretty good variety of options to choose from on the menu. The bad: I came here for mybirthday dinner because I wanted to try a new place. The beer list only showed the brewery names but not the beer name or typeso I just asked for whichever was a stout or porter from any of the listed breweries. I received an IPA ???? not the end of theworld, I drank it anyways... Moving on, after dinner we were brought the check. Never asked if we wanted dessert or anotherround of drinks. I mentioned it was my birthday and I kind of had dessert in mind. Was brought the menus and we ordered thebaked apple dessert which was pretty good then was brought yet another check. I must say this was the first time at anyrestaurant I have ever paid for my own birthday dessert but oh well, I guess that's how they operate. The ugly: We sat outsideon this cute patio with string lights overhead. However there were rats running around the patio eating scraps dropped on thefloor. I'm sure this is hard to control being outside, but it's not something you want to see while you're eating nonetheless. Read more

FAVORITE brunch spot by far! Chai lattes are the BEST here, amazing chicken Parmesan (it?s a special) and the friendliest... staff! Nicole is the sweetest! Ask for her if you want the best service! Read more

I come here pretty often with my boyfriend. I love the food, specifically the local toast. They have lots of good vegetarian... options. Today we tried the strawberry limeade and it was some of the best limeade I've ever had. The service was great. It wascrowded but we still got our food in almost no time. Our waitress Nicole was super nice and helpful. We opted for the outdoorseating since the indoor was crowded and it was very nice despite Florida's heat. Definitely recommend this place forbreakfast/lunch! Read more

This place is great. The coffee, food and service is amazing. The fried chicken is one of our favorite and combined with the... waffle is to die for. The vibe here is super chill and there?s outside seating for those great weather days. Read more

My food was absolutely amazing atmosphere was great and once we got a waiter she was absolutely awesome. Reason I gave four... stars is because we literally had to get up and ask for somebody to come and greet us Read more

Bad experience with poor service, dirty silverware, raw food and missing orders. Is a shame because the place looks really... nice. Dont know what happeded on my day but it was horrible. I order the steak and eggs with grits on the side.. there was nosteak only chunks of beef that where really hard to cut with the knife and impossible to chew.. potatoes where raw inside andthe grits never came. I ended up eating half of my wifes waffles and leaving hungry. The girl that took care of us (im sure sheis a nice girl) was distracted or maybe had too many tables.. because we had to request things several times and often forgotour requests. Also where charge for food that never came. Dont think i will be coming back to The Local.. hope they getbetter... overall experience was really bad. Read more

A 3.5 stars is probably more accurate. Try "The Local" sandwich at " The Local. Nice casual indoor and outdoor dining. Good... sandwich presentation although it seemed a bit more pricey than what I remembered from my last visit but the portions are large. Nice bar, clean restroom, and good service. Read more
