The Joint, the longtime Jungle Terrace tavern, has added a covered patio, an outdoor bar, fans, and seven TVs! 🥳👏🍺 The revamped patio will also occasionally host live music! 😊🎸🎶

For years, The Joint’s patio had the bones of a great outdoor hangout: space to sit, a neighborhood crowd, and the kind of laid-back setting that feels made for a cold b**r and a game on TV. What it did not have was much protection from Florida’s sun and rain. That is about to change. The Joint,
