A Modern Approach to Southern-Inspired Cuisine
Aside from the classic cocktail, a highball is a train conductor’s signal to depart at full speed. It was how Central Florida’s abundant harvests moved from field to table, an iconic symbol of the region’s agricultural might. Highball & Harvest (H&H) pays homage to this legacy, with menus laden with ingredients from local farms, as well as our own green-growing efforts. We pluck fresh produce from our on-site 7,000- square-foot garden at Whisper Creek Farm. Handcrafted cocktails are infused with seasonal fruits and herbs, and create a culinary adventure that is as inspiring as it is memorable.
Valet parking is available and will be validated in the restaurant

    The energy was electric and the staff was amazing! The food was delicious and we had a great time. The price points on the food and drinks rivals that of “finer” establishments which surprised me but the experience made it worth it for a special occasion. We will go back just not for a routine dining experience.

    We were in town for the citrus bowl to watch Purdue play LSU. We went to Charley’s early in the 2000s when we played last time in the citrus bowl and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, so we thought we’d try it again. We were not disappointed. The food and the service was outstanding and everyone raved about what a good time they had.
