Transformation of Orlando’s Game Room and Social Club

News Summary

Big changes are underway for the Game Room and Social Club in Orlando, as the popular establishment is set to undergo a major overhaul with help from the hit TV show Bar Rescue. Located at 55 N. Orange Ave., the Game Room, previously Lizzy McCormack’s, aims to revitalize its image and become a lively hotspot for nightlife amidst the challenges faced by the previous venue. Filming is scheduled to continue until April 13, keeping residents excited about the upcoming transformation and new entertainment options.

Exciting Changes Coming to Orlando’s Game Room and Social Club

Orlando residents, exciting news is brewing on North Orange Avenue! The beloved Game Room and Social Club, located at 55 N. Orange Ave., is undergoing a major transformation with an assist from the hit TV show Bar Rescue. Known for its ability to turn struggling establishments into thriving hotspots, this show is famous for its food and beverage consultant, Jon Taffer, who is determined to bring life back into bars and restaurants that need a little love.

Bar Rescue to the Rescue!

So how does one get chosen for an overhaul? Well, bar owners submit their business to be featured on the show. From there, Taffer assesses which places could benefit from his expertise, focusing on how the teams operate and perform. A typical episode consists of Taffer and his crew sampling food and drinks while keeping a close eye on staff behavior through surveillance equipment. It’s all about figuring out what’s working – and what’s not.

The Game Room is owned and managed by Garito and Co, the same company that operates the nearby Sly Fox. This dynamic duo is getting a facelift, though the specific changes remain a mystery until the show’s premiere. Don’t worry, the suspense will be worth it!

A New Era for Game Room

For those who don’t know, the Game Room was previously home to Lizzy McCormack’s. Unfortunately, that establishment had to close its doors back in September 2022, facing rising rent and dwindling demand. With such challenges, it’s heartening to see the current venue stepping up to give Orlando a fresh take on nightlife.

As the transformation unfolds, filming is set to continue until April 13. So if you happen to be in the area, don’t be surprised if you catch some interesting behind-the-scenes antics! The Game Room isn’t just about the drinks, though; it also boasts a range of entertainment options. Shuffleboard, foosball, board games, and plenty of TVs streaming your favorite sports make this spot a popular hangout for both locals and visitors.

Drinks and Socializing Done Right

With an impressive array of drinks, including both classic and cutting-edge cocktails, the Game Room aims to be a hub for social connection and camaraderie. Who doesn’t love the idea of sipping on a unique cocktail while enjoying a friendly game of shuffleboard?

While the finale of the renovation is eagerly awaited, details about a grand reopening or specific post-filming plans have yet to be released. The anticipation is certainly building, and if past episodes of Bar Rescue are anything to go by, we can expect an exciting reveal that could change the local scene. Keep your ears open for more updates!

Florida’s Bar Rescue Legacy

It’s worth mentioning that the Game Room isn’t alone in its journey; there are other venues across Florida that have been featured on Bar Rescue. Venues like The Copper Rocket in Maitland, Rockin’ Rhonda’s Lounge in Sanford, Phish Heads in Lake City, Fatballs Sports Bar and Grill in Jacksonville, and The Bamboo Beach Tiki Bar in Fort Lauderdale have all undergone transformations thanks to this popular show.

As this exciting transformation continues at the Game Room and Social Club, Orlando residents have much to look forward to. So, whether you’re bubble-wrapping your expectations or eagerly waiting, one thing is for sure: the revamped Game Room promises to be a place of fun, food, and friendship!
