A Must-Visit in Naples! The Mini Bar is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, we were transported to a tropical paradise with its island vibes, inviting outdoor dining, and vibrant atmosphere. The combination of fun games, well-placed TVs, and the perfect mix of lighting, fans, and heaters made it a comfortable and exciting place to dine. The menu is a delightful fusion of American classics with a tropical twist—every bite was packed with flavor! Our kids were entertained for hours with the bean bags and giant Connect Four, giving us the chance to relax and enjoy the experience even more. But what truly made our visit unforgettable was the exceptional service from Jill. She went above and beyond to make sure our family was taken care of, keeping our three kids happy and making us feel right at home. She deserves a raise for her attentiveness and warmth! Whether you’re looking for a fun night out, a family-friendly dining experience, or just a place to soak in the good vibes, The Mini Bar is the place to be. We can’t wait to come back!

This is a one of a kind and lesser known restaurant and bar that everyone would enjoy. They have different theme nights where they’ll have a guitar player perhaps, playing one night and have another night where they’ll have games for children to play and there’s always something new going on there. It has a great outdoor bar and restaurant seating area with cornhole on some nights and some nights you might be there just for the entertainment or to relax with friends. The food is all made from scratch!!! It’s not an expensive date to take someone there and it has a very nice atmosphere, especially during the evening when the palm trees are lit up. Then to boot, there is an old Volkswagen bus there all lit up. Not only is this one of a kind restaurant a superb place to visit for its uniqueness and scratch food but it’s also connected to a very classy bar called “the district”! Another bar, opening soon will be “the alley”, with a New York city Alley themed bar!! The owners are all very down to earth and local people. Very personable, and always checking in on the customers to see how everything is going and making sure everyone is happy. They truly take great pride and real passion in their business! The weight staff there is beyond superb. They are so friendly and accommodating, and actually have great personalities which you don’t see too often these days and you can tell they take a lot of satisfaction in what they do, and it all comes down from management, taking pride in their jobs, and carrying over to their employees! This is a place you do not want to miss visiting Naples!

This mini bar & kitchen was very quaint. The atmosphere was nice and family-friendly. The food was good, but only appetizer portions, so be prepared for that. My family and I went for brunch, and we loved it! Our waitress, Jaylin, was great also.

We came here after looking for someplace that had tv’s to watch the OSU game. We were pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere is awesome. It was a cold Florida night and Shauna our server brought out soft and warm blankets. She was awesome. We had a party of 8, which included 4 hungry hockey players from Michigan. We had the nacho platter and slider platter that were plenty for all of them. My wife had the bang bang shrimp and said it was one of the best she had. We highly recommend The Alley, and especially Shauna as a server.

This is the first stop at 1200 Central St. Naples. A beautiful outdoor bar, covered if it rains with a noveau type of atmosphere! Christopher, the bartender, will brighten your time there with his million watt smile and personality. There is food that can be classied as appetizers, but there is plenty to make it your meal. The better part of this place it's just the first stop. You then go thru a secret door to the second gem called "The Alley". There, you will find a unique small bar with a delightful bartender namer Kathy. Same food, but it's a completely different atmosphere! The third spot requires exiting The Alley, turn left and walk four steps to "The District". This slightly larger bar was simply beautiful! Meet John Carlos, our bartender. Where do these people find these smiles and personalities? Not sure about the food as I was intrigued by the beauty of this establishment. But then there was on more....."Employees Only"....again thru a secret passage out of "The District" and you will find a very small bar that looks like a cocktail suite in a mansion on the "million dollar mile" at the beach. Meet Nicholas, another happy bartender who is thrilled to see you! The pictures below don't give this new venue justice. But, I highly recommend this for Date Night!
