Where Mile & A Quarter used to be. Near the new pedestrian bridge. This new restaurant on South Water Street is actually 3 vegan restaurants under one roof. You have the choice of burgers, italian & mexican. I can only speak to the mexican eatery. The food was delicious & the service even better. However, the cell phone notification valet parking was a bit chaotic. The place was packed with millennials on Saturday night. Reservations recommended.

Even for many of us carnivores where that's not really our cup of tea, it's typical now days to have a vegan/vegetarian in the family or party. Always good to know of more tasty options that will accommodate that!

Something happened to Mile & A Quarter in its later years. It somehow managed to stay open long after there were many customers. I used to meet colleagues there for drinks because it was convenient. Almost always, we were the only patrons in the entire place. I have friends with offices overlooking the building. In the months just before the upstairs "club" opened (since closed by the city) there were real suspicious comings & goings.

I always liked Barnsiders Mile & A Quarter. Had a great soup and salad bar back in the days when listeria was not such a concern.

Yes, we are your friends & family everywhere! Went back to Plant City for a second visit. The food was even better the second time. All three restaurant options were packed. This time after the meal we went to the take out area for desert to go. Like the first visit, the place full of millennials and younger patrons.

Welcome to Middletown, Plant City.

A “scaled-down” version of the Plant City to open in Middletown

There will be a drive-thru.

Great news for those of us who live in this neck of the woods!

I'm not at all vegetarian or vegan but I do look forward to checking out Plant City if things ever get back to normal.

The S Main St. one isn't open, they don't do takeout there?
