  • In today's video, we wanted to do a refresh review at the Old Sugar Mill Pancake Restaurant located at De Leon Springs State Park. They recently closed and reopened with new owners so we wanted to see if the experience of cooking pancakes on the griddle at the table was the same. De Leon Springs State Park can hit capacity pretty quick, especially in the summer. It was packed! We had to wait about an hour and a half to get in the restaurant but they now have a text notification to let you know that the table is ready so that is a great new feature! The Springs is fun to walk around and look at different things. The visitor center now has merch and you can get some pretty cool gifts. We went on some of the nature trails and saw Methuselah, a giant, old cypress tree. We really enjoyed all the food at the Old Sugar Mill Pancake Restaurant and are thankful that it hadn’t changed but actually has improved! If you are looking for a very unique experience, check out the Old Sugar Mill Pancake Restaurant at De Leon Springs State Park!
    Stay tuned for another video coming soon. Thanks so much for watching! God Bless!!!

    Hey Alex comment not related to this video but having watched many of your Florida videos we have been here in Florida for a week and my wife has ordered at dinner each night a Arnold Palmer that she never had before watching your videos and now her favorite beverage see the monster you created 😂

      You are welcome! It was quite the fun experience! So good!

    Sheesh...A lot of money to cook them yourselves but it's the whole experience and kids (big and little) would love it. Another beautiful park! Thanks for taking us along.

      You are welcome! You definitely go there for the experience and if you stay at the spring all day, that just gives you more to do!

    We were there about 15 years ago. Great pancakes. We also did the boat tour. Very cool and worth what we paid for that. Need to go back. Thanks for the video.

    • @thealtemlife

      Good to know about the boat tour so we will have to do a video on that sometime! Thanks for letting us know!

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the tip! We will have to try that sometime!

    The park is named after Ponce de Leon…lots of history on Florida named for Ponce de Leon.❤

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  ปีที่แล้ว

      That is correct! We will have to go around and look up more history. Thanks for sharing!

    For parties of 1 or larger, a 18% gratuity is applied automatically. 🤣🤣 There is no escape!!

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha you are correct! However, our waitress was very nice!

    I’m so glad you did this place in the summer on a Saturday! I’ve been wondering what it’s like and how early the crowd starts. But with no A/C, I think we’ll visit in the winter 😊

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  ปีที่แล้ว

      It actually wasn’t too bad. The fans do a great job and it was extremely hot that day. However, cooler temps would be perfect so go whenever you will feel the most comfortable!

    Looked yummy. Cooked the pancakes yourself? Hope you left a good tip! (for yourself) lol. No wonder they put the 18% on the bill

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha yeah they probably do that since we are cooking the food. However, such a cool experience!

  • @pennyweldon8587

    Interesting place but I can cook my pancakes at home!! No AC, nope for me either. Thanks for the trip & tips!!

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It really isn’t too bad as they have massive fans running above you. It’s a really cool experience and that is what we go for! Thanks for watching!

      Beats a theme park ,,, has a swimming area and is fun if you make the kids cook

    I think I did see a restroom in the back gift shop where there was a door

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  ปีที่แล้ว

      Interesting! Thanks for sharing!

    Have you gone to Eduardo’s Lokos Taco’s in Tavares? Thanks for all the videos!

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  ปีที่แล้ว

      No but we will have to try it! It sounds great so thanks for the suggestion!

  • @bryant6524

    No AC, cook your own food, over an hour wait, mandatory tip (and you were the one cooking). I am struggling to see this.... However, thanks for making the video. I enjoyed it.

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It’s about the experience. Super unique and enjoyable. It’s been one of favorite places to take family for the uniqueness. Thanks for watching!

      Looked good this time and last time! Tip: If you'd grill those pancakes until super bubbly and dry around the edges they won't fall apart on you. 9th grade, home ec class, thaught me that! First thing I ever made.

    We enjoy your your videos very much only one problem. Please don't spin so fast when you are filming. It makes me dizzy. Pan slower and also maybe give your wife a microphone so we can hear her. Thank you!

    • @thealtemlife
      @thealtemlife  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hello! Thank you for watching! Thanks for the suggestion! However, we have discussed these two things in other videos before. The panning is due to the video being filmed on an iPhone. I don’t even turn that fast but since it’s a small device, it looks that way on video. If you are watching on a bigger screen like a TV, that is why. If it’s on an iPad or computer, it’s much better. Also, my wife is soft spoken and that is completely fine. She doesn’t want a microphone and sometimes doesn’t want to be on the video. And that is completely fine with me. I appreciate her tagging a long and being a team player! Again, thank you for watching our videos! We appreciate it and all the support!!
