The Old Jailhouse Restaurant was literally an old jailhouse converted into an amazing restaurant. The ambiance and decor is unlike any other in the Central Florida region and we highly recommend it for a momentous night out, date nights, special occasions or for delicious eats.
The building has so much history – In 1914, the recently created Seminole County (named for the native Seminole tribe who historically lived throughout the area) acquired the building and converted it for use as a jail. The Seminole County Jail functioned at the location until 1959.
The Old Jailhouse Kitchen & Spirits offers ever-changing seasonal menus prepared with local ingredients to create Florida-Fusion inspired cuisine. They also offer thoughtfully crafted artisanal cocktails, an extensive list of fine spirts, wine & craft beer.
