November, 2009-I recently visited two of my kids who attend Full Sail University in Winter Park, FL. I knew I was going to have a lot of free time on my hands, so I did a little research prior to my visit. I attended the Thursday Car Night in Old Town and had a really nice evening. I came back... more

I like old town mainly because I like strolling around, looking at the old cars, enjoying the retro music and people watching. The stores offer mainly tourist tat although there are some cute t-shirt shops. Black market Minerals which used to be a fixture in Church Street Station is always fun and interesting. Avoid the visitor information center, its just... more

Having been many times to Orlando, this years 3 week vacation once again included 2 trips to Old town for the Saturday night car cruise. Our trip wouldn’t be complete without spending the evening relaxing with a beer sat in the sun at the Tropical breeze bar, yeah I know its run down and shabby its probably seen better days,... more

I have been to Old Town in the past, and it definately seemed to be past its prime. There are still interesting shops, and the Friday and Saturday night car cruises, but Old Town is looking old. It is still a great place to go and waste a couple of hours looking through shops. But I really didn't see great... more

I can't speak for everyone but I find this place fascinating. I drove by years past but I finally went in after I moved in to Winter Haven from Miami and have visited the place ever since. There are two sections that people get confused on. One is fun spot and the other old town but people treated the same... more

We went to Old Town and had a great time. We rode the go karts and had a blast. We had dinner at the Spring Roll Chinese Restuarant....that was absolutely disgusting!!! That was the nastiest chinese food I have ever eaten. I hope that is not how Florida makes their chinese food, I am hoping we just tried a bad... more

Living in Orlando, I'm well aware that Kissimmee is where the family on a tight-budget stays. This is why it has amazing gourmet restaurants with names like The Las Vegas Buffet and a hotel shaped like an alligator. Old Town is the answer to many budgeted prayers. It has rides. It has go-karts. It has a large game with a... more

We accidently stumbled onto Old Town after dining at Flippers Pizza. It was a nice place to spend the evening with the kids walking around the amusement park(s) and shopping area. The boys (8 and 6), my husband and I rode the gocarts on a couple tracks and had a blast. I actually think they would have had more fun... more

I have lived in Florida for years and going to Kissimmee and Disney many times. Old Town has gone down hill with quality of shops and music. Every Sunday has Latin Music at the end of the first block and LOUD! I thought Old Town was for everyone and family fun. If, I want to listen to a certain type... more
