Late-afternoon light softens the facades along Winter Haven’s compact downtown as a small group threads between taverns and tasting rooms. The crawl unfurls across three hours, a deliberate stroll that pairs award-winning happy hour menus with short history lessons — a vaudeville-era movie house here, a citrus-era brick storefront there. The Chain of Lakes presses close to town, its low-slung water and palmettos nudging the sidewalks with a reminder of Central Florida’s lakeside roots.
