Cheshire's Hilltop Tavern
About This Spot
Nestled comfortably in the heart of Fruitland Park, Cheshire's Hilltop Tavern invites you into a space where familiarity meets a spirited neighborhood vibe. From the moment you step through its doors, there’s a gentle ease in the air—the kind that encourages you to settle in, engage with friendly faces, and savor the slow pulse of a place that feels both lively and laid-back. The refurbished interior hums softly with warmth and community, making it a perfect spot to escape the everyday.
This tavern strikes a thoughtful balance between a welcoming bar and a casual local eatery. It’s the kind of place where bartenders greet you by name, where conversations flow easily beneath the glow of multiple TVs tuned for the game, and where the scent of hearty, comforting food draws you closer. Whether you’re here for a quick beer, a thoughtfully crafted cocktail, or a plate that fills you with nostalgic satisfaction, the menu feels personal—designed to complement the convivial rhythm rather than overwhelm it.
The spirit of Cheshire’s Hilltop shines brightest in its human moments: the playful banter with bartenders, the kitchen staff’s excitement in sharing new flavors, and the laughter that spills from open mic nights or a friendly game of darts. It’s a place where regulars mingle with newcomers, where age and background fade into the shared experience of good company and unhurried enjoyment. Here, every visit becomes more than just a meal or a drink; it’s a chance to belong for a little while.

Hilltop is amazing!! You gotta pay a visit!! I pop in about once a fortnight or sometimes twice a week. Always super bar staff, and the new kitchen chef Heather is so into making sure you know all about the new menu and any preference you have. Highly recommend Hilltop!! I had the potato skins with cheese and Turkey Thanks Giving dish tonight >> so delicious!! Few more on the menu i will try next time!! The hard work that the owners have put in, surely shows!!

We've been there many times for open mic and ate there once, since they started serving food. The food menu is a work in others, but so far, so good. I enjoy the atmosphere. They have great servers, say hi to Kerry They've refurbished this place and it looks great@

Awesome little bar! Tina and Chris the bartenders were funny and welcoming, good selection of drinks, and the barbecue guy out front was amazing! The multiple tvs with football were the cherry on top.

We were looking for a place to play darts and have a drink. We walked into bingo and just an overall good time. We met the owner who was super nice. She recently purchased the establishment in Feb of 2025 and has poured her heart into a place for all to visit. Thanks Dora!

This is such a cool spot. The new owners have really done great with the remodels. The lit bar is such a fun touch. Everything is so clean and fresh. Dora and her husband are very personable and make it a point to interact with their guests, creating an environment that makes you feel at home from the very first visit. The food is very good. Andrea, the cook, pays a lot of attention to detail and makes a wonderful plate every single time. Desarie is a great bartender, with just the right amount of spunk and sass every great bartender needs. I will definitely be coming back and bringing friends with me!!
