We at Brick City Food Tours take the health and safety of our guests very seriously.  

Here are a few of the steps we are taking to ensure guest safety:

  • Our tours are private events for a minimum of six guests and limited to 12 guests

  • All tastings are individually portioned

  • Guides wash their hands before the tour and throughout

  • We have coordinated with our partners to ensure that extra sanitary measures are being observed

  • Our arrival times at restaurants are during off peak hours, limiting exposure to larger crowds

Where do we meet?

Each tour begins at a different location based on restaurant availability. Your host will contact you prior to your tour to give you directions and recommendations.

Where will we go?

Our partner restaurants include Sayulita Taqueria (Mexican street food), Ivy on the Square (southern delicacies), Ocala's Chocolate and Confections (the finest European chocolate), Stella’s Modern Pantry (gourmet cafe), La Cuisine (French delicacies), Bank Street Patio Bar (bar and grill), Cantina Tex Mex Tequila Bar (Tulum Mexico themed Tex-Mex restaurant) and The District Bar & Kitchen (elevated American Bar and Grill classics). The restaurants featured on each tour rotate, depending on the weather and availability of the restaurant.

What’s included?

Each restaurant we visit will prepare a sampling of specialty foods. In between stops we will guide you on a historic tour of downtown Ocala.


Is there alcohol?

We will provide water for guests at each location. Due to time constraints and safety concerns, we ask that guests do not order specialty drinks.

Contact us for a private tour to inquire about adding drink add-ons!


Guest Requirements:

Up to 10 guests ages 15 and up can attend. Please note we are not setting a stationary menu, so some foods may include meat, wheat and dairy. If you have an allergy please alert us ahead of time so we can accommodate your needs.


Any other tips?

Please wear comfortable shoes and clothing, as this is a walking tour. It is a tasting tour, so please be advised we will not order food or drinks from the menu. Instead, our partnered restaurants have selected a few of their popular dishes to share with us. Inform host of dietary restrictions.
