Looking for recs for a nice upscale bar or club in Orlando or north into Seminole County for singles. Went to Bar Louie recently, not sure what I was thinking, I was totally overdressed and lost count of how many hoodies and backwards baseball hats I saw. Nothing wrong with a good dive bar, but I want somewhere nice to go to when I’m in the mood to get dressed up and meet somebody. Any recommendations?

Mathers for downtown Orlando.

Anything on Park Ave (Prato or wine room)

In Seminole, lake Mary blvd toward Heathrow is your best bet

I'm assuming you're a male. For what it's worth, you can wear whatever you want as most places here (Orlando nightlife is much more accessible than some other cities) don't really give a shit and ultimately you are setting your own vibe so to speak.

If you want to go places where there's a bit more upscale dress overall I'd suggest places like The H, London House, Orlando Eye Bar, Palm Tree Club, Blu Martini, AVA, Flutes etc. Of course with some of the suggested places also expect overpriced drinks and probably some pretentious people.

Christner's is my first thought, but I'm not sure how the protocol works with reservations and/or the bar area. Their food is amazing tho

mathers, guesthouse, tori tori, wine room, bosendorfer, but also have heard good things about Brit & mortar and highT but never been myself

unfortunately most places in orlando dont have dresscode other than Mathers, so you will always find hoodies, caps, jeans, and sneakers and all types of shit.

If I am looking for something close to me in seminole County I go to Brix and Mortar. It usually has women who come dressed up. Guys are a mixed bag. Crowd varies 21-45 depending on the night.

Winter park is a little further for me but I go to either Morse code lounge or Boca to be social at the bar. This area generally has a higher end clientele. I would say more 25-55 range here also.
