The StayGainesville Connection: StayGainesville's Susannah Peddie has been a fan of Bingo since its inception. She and her family frequently go to Bingo for dinner and Sunday lunches. It's a regular go-to for the family as it's just down the street from the historic Duckpond, where she and her family call home. The staff always know exactly what her son will order so they punch it in before Susannah even has to tell them. One of these days, her family will attend a Bingo night- many of her tennis friends go regularly.

In the heart of Gainesville, Florida, nestled amongst historic streets and the vibrant energy of the University of Florida, lies a Gainesville institution – Bingo Deli and Pub https://bingodeli.square.site/.
