Harper's Draught House

During my short stay in Eustis I quickly decided this was going to be my go to spot at night. Lots of different bottled beer to choose from. They also have a good selection of drafts which are switched up regularly. The owners are some of the nicest people I have met. They know their beer and were quick to give us suggestions if we weren't exactly sure what to try. Its basically just the perfect local place where you quickly just feel at home. Harper's I will be back....dont change.

I could not agree with Jasons review more.  Harpers is the Eustis version of Cheers.  People takes the time to learn your name, and to have a nice evening among new and old friends. Cindy and Dave are fantastic owners, and run a well lit, clean establishment.

Historic downtown Eustis is a pretty place, but let's face it... after the sun sets, there's not much to do.  Thankfully, the few nightlife establishments that they have are legit and have a lot to offer, especially Harper's Draught House (or just plain "Harper's" if you're local).

This quaint pub has been through a few ownership changes and incarnations, but Harper's newest owners (Dave & Cindy), seem to have finally gotten it right, and have made sure that the bar has everything it needs to become a mainstay and local favorite.  There's an impressive selection of brews on tap and in bottles (like Newcastle, Chimay, Guiness, Yuengling, and other microbrews - NOT just Bud, Coors, etc.) plus a variety of wines.

But the drink selection isn't the only thing Harper's has to offer.  The owners have put an effort into making sure that there's ALWAYS something to do, each night that they're open.  Monday night is open mic night.  Tuesday night has FREE Texas hold 'em poker.  On Wednesdays, you can play FREE pool all night.  Thursday night is trivia night (you can win prizes like free bar tabs). Then, they have live music every Friday and Saturday night.

If you're looking for a packed, sweaty, frat party kegger club, those are close by, but you probably want to skip Harper's.  However, if your beer/wine taste goes beyond what's served at a wing place, and if you're looking for a place where you don't have to fight your way to the bar or scream over people to have a conversation, where good people gather because it's a good place to be, remember to visit historic Downtown Eustis and to stop by Harper's Draught House.
