FOOD & DINING · PARRAMORE — CLOSING
Broken Strings Brewery & Taproom, at 1012 W. Church Street in Parramore, will permanently close at the end of November, its owners have announced — ending a comeback that began less than two years ago. The taproom’s final pour is set for November 30, with the permanent closure taking effect December 1.
A second chapter that ends on Church Street
The brewery first closed in early 2025, then reopened on February 20, 2025, after Central Florida locals Darryl Richardson, Brad Pascarella and Clint Oldenburg acquired it. The three also own Three Odd Guys Brewing in Longwood, which will remain open — the owners say they will now focus there.
In their announcement on the brewery’s Instagram, the owners wrote: “Over the past two years, we gave this everything we had. Ultimately, despite our best efforts, we couldn’t build a sustainable path forward.” They added: “We made a run at it. We had some amazing times, met some incredible people, and created memories that we will never forget.”
What happens between now and November 30
The taproom, which sits between Camping World Stadium and Inter&Co Stadium, will run its scheduled November events — including programming around Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) and the Warped Tour — before the final pour on November 30. For Parramore, the closure removes one of the game-day gathering places that served soccer supporters, craft beer drinkers and live-music crowds on the stadium corridor. Our Parramore hub tracks the neighbourhood, and Where to Eat in Parramore Right Now lists what remains open nearby.

Broken Strings was not among the ten names in the Citizen’s scored craft-beer ranking, but its closing is exactly the kind of change that ranking exists to help readers navigate: see The 10 Best Craft Breweries in Orlando and the No. 1 profile, Crooked Can Brewing Company, for where the region’s taprooms stand now. More openings and closings are tracked daily in the Food & Dining archive and across the newsroom’s beats index — including two College Park changes this week: Truffles and Trifles closing after 40 years and Pacchioni’s Cheesesteaks & Pizza opening on Edgewater Drive.
