Tom & Jerry's Lounge

Depressing, stinky, and weird clientele into plaid shorts.  The bartenders were so-so and the DJ was oblivious to the fact that he was playing completely inappropriate music for the crowd in the bar.

So we got lost finding another bar, and it was the best mistake I have made in a while.I do not know why people act like they are four am bars and show up at 12 when they all close at two, that to me is the mystery of Orlando.  Maybe it is the recession and people stay in longer to pre-game and save money? who knows.  When we first go there is was dead, dead, dead, and unenjoyable.  Later when more people showed up it was a lot more fun and we tried some of the jello shots that seemed to have no liquor and be super old, but just swallow them faster and you will never notice.   Our bartenders did not look of age to be serving but they were adorable and sweet never the less.

Overall
dive bar-ish feeling : 8/10
crowd (older) : 7/10
and drinks/service: 8/10

We came out to Tom & Jerry's last night for some karaoke. The drinks were good, well priced. They had $11 mix and match buckets. The atmosphere is laid back but not divey. The chairs are actually really comfy and padded, that was a nice surprise.
My husband did all the drink ordering, so I can't comment on the staff.

The KJ was ok. His songs were... I don't know, weird. I've been doing karaoke around central Florida for almost a decade, and sang the same songs 100 times in other places, his formats were just different and shorter, also in different keys than normal. Maybe his songs were all bootlegged, I don't know.

Definitely a laid back place to hang out and have a few drinks. They also have darts and a few comfy couches.
