I haven't spent much time in Gainesville the last 12+ years, and I'm not even sure where Celebration Pointe is, but this place looks great.
Spurrier's Gridiron Grille
PART RESTAURANT. PART FOOTBALL MUSEUM.
ALL-AMERICAN EXPERIENCE.
Spurrier’s Gridiron Grille is the legendary Head Ball Coach’s next big play off the field. He’s opening his doors and sharing his legacy with all of us through an immersive restaurant experience at Celebration Pointe in Gainesville, Florida.
The bar and grill will celebrate Gator Football’s legacy of success while offering an elevated American-casual dining atmosphere and a rare Gainesville rooftop bar named ‘Visors’ overlooking the Celebration Pointe Promenade and outdoor entertainment venue. The menu will incorporate some of Coach’s favorite foods: avocado-topped burgers, grilled chicken, seafood, pasta, salads and desserts inspired by his wife Jerri’s recipes like pecan pie a la mode and homemade chocolate chip cookies, which have been longtime favorites of former Florida players like Danny Wuerffel and James Bates.
Fans and visitors will stand inches from Spurrier’s 1966 Heisman Trophy and other memorabilia before and after taking a seat. And there are plans for live radio broadcasts and podcasts with Spurrier himself from a radio booth in the restaurant. Don’t miss the chance to experience the Spurrier
legacy up close—right in the heart of Gator Nation.
FEATURES
With planned radio broadcasts from Coach Spurrier from within the restaurant and its location at Celebration Pointe, the host of the football and basketball coaches' radio shows and the popular Chomp the Block rallies for UF home games, Spurrier’s Gridiron Grille is the perfect setting for a sports superfan. Its location is convenient for anyone coming in for a game at the Steve Spurrier Stadium and for those who live and work in the area at companies such as UFHealth, the University of Florida, InfoTech and SharpSpring.
