Go to Sakeba!! Amazing place.great food,clean ,very good price and great service.
We visited during happy hour so got beer for $2!
The food I got cost $18, and considering the quality and quantity speaks volumes. We learned about this place from a utube video from a guy called themeparkbazza so thanks to him for that.

Fun way to spend a day!
Family
TLDR: great employee made our trip perfect, fun shopping experience in unique stores, free parking, old timey photos. Rides a little spendy per ride—arm band would have been more economical for us.

Absolute Favorite part: Christopher A at the Ferris wheel went over and above to make our family feel special and enjoy our time! My daughter was SO nervous about the height of the ride so he made sure we got the most enclosed car to sit in. He talked kindly to her about what to expect and that he would let her off if she was too scared to continue. She was so nervous going on but he made her feel at ease! He even let us go around an extra turn since she overcame her fear and was sad to get off! My mom was taking pictures from the ground and Christopher told her where to stand to get better pics and also had us pose with the doors open at the end of the ride for another great shot. What a sweet man and a true asset to the team at Old Town! Thank you a million times Christopher A; you deserve recognition from your superiors for your awesome customer service!

Also loved that it was free parking & the variety of fun stores to look at. Groovy store and the magnet store were pretty awesome. Be sure to stop at the smoothie stand for pina coladas in a pineapple (or other flavors with or without alcohol)!

We loved taking the old time photos and we found it to be very reasonably priced. The employees were exceptionally nice! We did splurge for their $150 package (2 framed pics, all the prints they took that day and a memory stick with all the pictures and printing rights).

We love the car shows at Old Town on Friday and Saturday evenings
We travel to Orlando often and stay at our timeshare. We were introduced to Old Town by friends and have gone there almost every time we visit Orlando. Besides a great Pizza Restaurant there are many other restaurants and snack places amongst the shops that line the streets of old town. Walking only except for the car show parades on Friday and Saturday evening. Antique cars usually on Friday Night and Muscle Cars on Saturday but check before you go as I am not sure which is on which night. We look at all the cars and there are over a hundred usually, then hit some shops and go the pizza restaurant to sit at the outside tables and watch the cars parade by at 8pm.

Don't bother
Blech! Used to be a fun and interesting place to go, but now it's become filled with kitchy t-shirt shops, bars, and a few fast food places. At least 4 of the larger restaurant spaces are now dark. Parking is difficult unless you're willing to pay $10, and watch out, they had two tow truck patrolling the area when I was there. I'm sure some will like Old Town, but to me it's just not worth it anymore.

For a good time, visit Old Town
Every time we visit Kissimmee and the local area we make it a point to spend an early evening at Old Town. The "town" features some unique shops and eateries and most nights feature car nights, with muscle cars, antiques, exotics and customs lining the entertainment boulevard within the stage area. On the night we attended, it was Country Music night and a live singer belted out Country tunes on stage, while onlookers sat close by or dancing in front of the stage.

It is free to roam around Old Town, with something for everyone, from thrill rides, to bars, ice cream shops and so much more. If you simply want a night out with no need to spend any money, this is the place to enjoy and view the spectacle of an old town front street.

2020-2023 “It Has Been a While”
Still a nice place to enjoy it as a couple or with family or friends. With over 60 shops, restaurants and several amusements rides. There is no fee to come inside, however, in order to ride the rides, you must purchase tickets.
On Sunday, there is a large display of several vintage of “mussel cars” for your enjoyment.
Masks are optional, except at some stores are mandatory.

Pathetic!
This is a run down dump charging crazy prices. The magic show was ridiculous. Magician messed up almost every trick. And the place is a dirty, dusty mess. The "newly renovated" arcade must have been renovated in 1976. They wanted $59 per head for a ride pass for a moderate collection of carnival rides in the "fun spot". When we asked about riding the merry-go-round they said $5/pp. So $40 for my group of 8 to ride a carrousel? Don't think so. The western shooting gallery we were looking forward to was a deserted little nook with 2 out of 5 stations working (maybe) and was pitiful looking. The weirdest and most random collection of gift shops that I cannot imagine how they stay in business. Avoid this disaster area.

Always something new, always fun
There is something for everyone there. Old Town is like a miniature amusement park where you find rides, gift and curiosity shops, live country music on weekends, a bar, and sometimes there are scheduled fun events such as Karaoke evenings and car shows, etc. A great place for a fun outing, either with family or alone, and it suits all budgets and even a zero budget since it costs nothing to just walk around and enjoy the music and atmosphere. The only issue that you might face is parking space in weekend evenings. Not enough at all, and tourists usually spill over into the parking lots of nearby hotels and businesses where they risk being towed. Not sure if there is paid parking there, but if you'll use free parking on weekends you need to arrive early.

Fun addition to the time at Fun Spot America
This was a great place to visit and view when attending to Fun Spot America. Especially in the evening and at night, when the music is playing and the bands are singing, the classic cars were interesting as the boys definitely wanted to see the old muscle cars. There was a pyro entertainer who was worth our evening time as well. Some great shops to visit and peruse for unique gifts and styles.

Looking old
Couples
Our plans for today were cancelled so we stopped here because it was nearby our resort. We went during the day and it was clear this is far more an evening and night destination. I always have found older amusement a bit seedy in the light. We also weren't there for the popular car shows. So the good - parking, prices, and diversity of visitors. The not so good - buildings need to be refurbished, restrooms have broken plumbing and lack of soap, and the worst for a first time visitors - poor signage and not a single map board displaying store and restaurant locations.
