The One Night Stand is a new country/rock/smokehouse bar located in Brandon, FL on SR60.  This just opened in 2014 and we finally had a chance to check this place out for lunch and a couple cold beers over the holidays.  The original One Night Stand is located in St. Pete (haven’t been there yet) and the owners wanted to expand into the Brandon area with a new bar.  It has pretty much everything here: stage for bands, pool tables, dart boards, mechanical bull, excellent barbecue, drink specials, large outside patio area, large liquor selection, big screen TV’s for sports, and large openings to the outside to bring in lots of light.  We were there for lunch so they had drafts/wells and bottle beer on sale.  I started with a draft PBR and switched to a bottle of DogFish Head 60 MIN IPA.  Not much on draft for the craft beer guy but they did have several bottle beers.  We ordered a pound of wings with Jack Daniels sauce for an appetizer and they were excellent.  I am kind of a wing snob and hate most bar wings because they are frozen, deep fried and usually taste like crap.  These were obviously slow smoked on their barbecue so they were tender and full of flavor.  I also got a pulled pork sandwich and the pulled pork was really good.  Served with coleslaw on top.  This is a great spot for barbecue and assume it probably gets pretty busy at night especially during game days or when they have bands.  Not a craft beer bar but there are enough options between bottle/draft and liquor that you will be able to find something to drink.  Couldn’t find a website but they do have a Facebook page if you would like more info:  One Night Stand Facebook Page
