orlandoguy Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Looks like a new bar will be moving into the old Ethos/Lava Lounge space early next year in Ivanhoe Village. Based on their FB page it seems the owner is a longtime Orlando bartender and this will be his first ownership venture. http://www.facebook.com/TheHammeredLamb?fref=ts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciyphier Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Oh good! I'm all for another bar in walking distance... I was so sad when Lava closed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgardnerucf Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 In addition to The Hammered Lamb, don't forget about the The Lucky Lure, and The Matador. January/February dates on all of 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klstorey Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Could this mean a shift in the Orlando drinking from downtown to other areas or just more bars overall? Ivanhoe Village would be an awesome bar district, esp if the warehouses across the train tracks (though not technically within IV but hey even their own office is there). I'd love to see those warehouses refurb'd into lofts and retail (like what Ybor City wants to be). Orange Ave already seems pretty good business wise. The Lake Ivanhoe pedestrian bridge will also help this area gain it's own identity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunshine Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 plus lake hingland supposed to build a "town center" type kind of development after the land clean up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prahaboheme Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Ivanhoe Village really needs some quality infill development. The Virgina Drive / Orange Avenue intersection is a total waste in it's current state -- parking lots. A "Thornton Park Central" like development would go a long way in catipulating this neighbor forward. I'd love to see what Ustler could do for this little corner of town. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 I've not heard any info about The Lucky Lure, Matador OR the development in Lake Highland. Kinda embarassing as I live right near it. Anybody point me in a direction? Can't find anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedStar25 Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 plus lake hingland supposed to build a "town center" type kind of development after the land clean up Really? Are you talking about the land clean up associated with Lake Highland Prep.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgardnerucf Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 -Old narrow pink metal building used to house boats long ago along the railroad tracks is the Lucky Lure. Open concept, dive bar, train shots, etc. -Old Sip is the relocated Matador from downtown. Almost done actually, prob few days. -Hammered Lamb is within few weeks. -Expect lots of biking and bouncing around. Great vibrancy between the 3, bar hopping, etc. Plus the addition to regulars needing to relocate from downtown to neighborhood location for their favorite watering hole and favorite 'tenders. Matador crowd and Stardust crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smileguy Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Photos on the Hammered Lamb facebook lead me to believe its at least a month out. They seem to be doing serious work on the space, and the floor is torn out down to dirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jernigan Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Is there another business set to open where Logan's Bistro was in the same strip as Sip/Matador? Also, does anyone have an arial or at least the bordering streets for this Lake Highland town center site? I can't picture it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott J said this was the replacement back in August but I've heard nothing since: http://www.scottjosephorlando.com/index.php/news/1878-santiago-s-bodega-will-fill-logan-s-bistro-space Also, I drove around in that area today (Alden Rd., Brookhaven, Lake Highland Dr., etc.,) and I was amazed at all the new athletic fields but I apparently missed the spot for a town center unless it's behind one of their myriad fences with tarps. It would be a fascinating addition if it's still a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete C Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) White Wolf Cafe Owner Will Open Wolfie's Pizzamia in February.

alex Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Was browsing the MPB agenda, and came across The Venue at 511 Virginia Drive. It's a small bar area with a performance space in the back. Has anyone been here? Looks like they just got a conditional use permit to serve alcohol. Could bring some life to this usually quiet strip between (future) Mills Park and Ivanhoe Row. This is their official site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orlandoguy Posted July 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 The former Casa Sorrento space on North Orange (across the street from Gargi's) now has a sign up for a sushi restaurant. I think the name is Ta-Ke but am not positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungalower-MattBroffman Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 One of my favorite bars in the area is now serving food. Because drinking at an import furniture store wasn't cool enough. Details on Bungalower.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Details on Bungalower.com Definitely my favorite place. The menu doesn't do much for me personally but whatever keeps this place open.

bulldogger Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Not exactly Ivanhoe Village since Florida Hospital considers that area the Health Village, so not sure if this is the best place to post. There is something fairly large going up along I-4 near Rollins St. There is definitely a garage component and looks likely to be an apartment complex. I remember seeing posts and renderings for workforce dwellings in that area, but don't recall the name of the development. Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out the "Health Village" forum. http://www.urbanplanet.org/forums/index.php/topic/52754-florida-hospital-health-village/ The development I believe is called The Ivy Residences at Florida Hospital.
