    But since it's just a short walk from Vista, going to Bennigans shouldn't be too difficult - even more so now that the F bus has stopped going to Crossroads after around 10 pm...

    Yeah things changed so much the past year. So we are not allowed anymore in vista, you have to get signed as a guest if u live in commons, and have to leave before 1 a.m. as guest and even they have bus passes and special permits for using the computer labs... so commons people are strangers in vista. So was easy to get TGIF in crossroad at least u have a car to get there by yourself.

    Hi everyone!

    Yeah!! Many things changed, specially that DYNAMIC situation is AN ISSUE!! They are providing the WORST service ever, there are some GREAT drivers, but a lot of them are rude and nasty and the routes are not what they used to be either. When I got there, you could go into Vista as a resident and go to Benningan's, Wallgreens, Wendy's, etc... now for example if you need to go to a grocery store or a drugstore after work, YOU JUST CAN'T... unless you walk there.  ??? Of course they still run the Wal-mart route but going there means taking AT LEAST two hours out of a day, not very convenient just for buying cigarrettes or something.

    About BENNINGAN'S, I loved the POTATO CREAMY SOUP they have there and the ambiance is nice too.  :)

    BYE!  :-*

    Bennigans is more or less the same as it used to be. I was there just a couple of weeks ago. The menu is the same and is just as good. The only bartenders who are the same are Mike and Tyler. All of the others have gone on to do other things but the new guys seem just as good.

    When I was there, the UK were still frequenting it but I don't know how much they go cause of the bus situation. I think they just rely on taxis a lot more.

    Oh thats such a shame!  Bennigans was ace! It was one of the only places I could get server when i was out there and still underage!  Ahhh, back in the day....

    I'm going back to Orlando in January, for the first time since I left in 2000.  I'm pretty nervous that I will spend the whole week walking around the parks and crying!!! it's been emotional! ;)

    I will definatly pay a visit to Bennigans though! Good times...

    Ahh yes. Irish carbombs and flaming dr. peppers. They were always god for a laugh. Think we managed to get into double figures drinking those one night.
     
  14. AAAAAAAAAH the good old Flaming Dr. Peppers,

    they were one evil drink.... but at the same time, quite fun!!!!!
    until you went white and passed out anyway.
