Eden Abbey Brewing Community

We stopped into Eden Abbey Brewing on a Sunday evening after the Mount Dora Craft Show. We sat inside the taproom, but there’s also a beautiful outdoor area that’s perfect for relaxing with a pint. I sampled a few beers, and my favorite was Das Brot, German-style Dunkle brown lager with a toasty, malty flavor that finishes clean, dry, and crisp. We ordered the kettle chips to start, which came out piping hot, perfectly crunchy, and sprinkled with a flavorful proprietary seasoning blend. They paired perfectly with the beer. For dinner, we split a Hog Heaven Burger with tater tots and a Fiery Clucka sandwich. The tater tots were some of the best we’ve ever had: crisp, golden, and not greasy. The Hog Heaven was huge: juicy beef topped with a mound of kalua-style pulled pork, bacon, cheese, and sweet smoky BBQ sauce, all balanced with lettuce, tomato, and onion. The Fiery Clucka was another winner, tender buttermilk fried chicken layered with crispy bacon, chipotle beer cheese, and firebreather aioli on a toasted brioche bun. Not overly spicy, just packed with flavor. As the evening went on, Kristin Tucker & The Abbey Band started playing. The music was great with strong vocals and a good vibe. The Christian song choices weren’t quite our thing, but the performance overall was solid and the crowd was clearly enjoying it. We eventually left when we had enough of it, to each his own I guess. Between the excellent beer, delicious food, and live entertainment, this place checks all the boxes. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend.

We had an excellent meal here. I got the special, which was a pasta with blackened chicken and sausage in a thick cream sauce. We got a wagyu burger. Finished it off with a apple crisp. Atmosphere was awesome other then a drunk dude with an obnoxious dog. But the meal was good and the Atmosphere was excellent 👌🏽

We just happened to come across this local gem when we were visiting Mt. Dora last weekend! It also happened to be their first ever Oktoberfest, so we were able to enjoy extra fun activities that day! My two teenage daughters, husband, and myself had the best time!! We spent about 3-4 hours enjoying a great atmosphere, outstanding service, delicious food, and very fun entertainment!! There are 3 very different seating areas...a darling cafe section that looks like a cozy diner with board games to play at your table, a bar/pub section that features live music at select times, as well as a porch and outdoor seating area. They also have a fun play area on the porch for your little ones! I highly recommend visiting Eden Abbey. You won't be disappointed!
