*****  Alligator Alley, 1321 East Commercial Boulevard, Oakland Park, Florida 33334, (954) 771-2220.

Alligator Alley calls itself a “Taproom & Music Hall.” The best way to handle this one, is for you to go Alligator’s website at www.alligatoralleyflorida.com …after reviewing the site you’ll know whether or not this “hole in the wall” joint is for you.

I found Alligator Alley to be an absolutely great joint… its menu is loaded with terrific appetizers, salads, wings, burgers, sandwiches, bbq, seafood/meat entrees…Alligator has won local “awards” for its gumbo…BUT food isn’t this joint’s only game…

Alligator Alley which is open Wednesday-Saturday 7pm-2am is the home to local and national recording artists who play every night…the schedule includes, blues-jazz-rock-punk-funk…Sometimes there is a cover charge and other performances are free.

Alligator Alley is a joint where you come to eat, drink and enjoy top-notch music and performances. If this sounds like your type of place, plan on spending the evening…
