About Sanford Happy Hours

Sanford sits along the shores of Lake Monroe about 25 minutes north of Downtown Orlando and has quietly built one of Central Florida's most charming downtown strips. First Street is the main drag — a brick-lined corridor of craft breweries, wine bars, and independent restaurants with a distinctly artsy, small-town feel. Happy hours here are affordable and often accompanied by live music, waterfront views, and a pace that feels a world apart from the Orlando tourist corridor.
