Such a great place! The owner runs a great restaurant and is always giving back to the community. The food is amazing in the atmosphere is fantastic. Dueling pianos are a must. I highly recommend Winners Circle!

Enjoyed dinner. The atmosphere is exactly what I expect from a sports bar. Had good music and good food.

Heard this place was good so we gave it a try. I had a couple bite of my wings and literally couldn’t eat them anymore. We did enjoy the fried pickles and curly fries but I definitely had food poisoning after eating here. Took us over an hour and a half to order, eat, and leave because our server kept disappearing.

Amazing food! Fresh and hot (except for the salad).Fish sandwich is huge and amazing. Burgers are also great. We are ordering at least 2x a week. Delicious

I was picking up an order to deliver for Postmates. Took me 20 minutes to get there. The order wasnt ready. They made it after I got there. So I texted the customer I was waiting on his order still. He must have called up there somebody was yelling at them on the phone.Then I finally got my order and was able to deliver it. Customer was mean to me so they must have lied to him on the phone my experience with this place is a zero not a one

Their wings are THE BEST! Before the pandemic my friends and I would go for trivia nights, get a bunch of wings and have a great evening. Tons of fun and killer food. Since covid we have enjoyed the take out food and it is always top notch. Even if we can’t go in to get food service we get amazing care in our take out food. Their chippy-teriyaki is literally the most delicious combo for wings.

Cant say enough good things about this place, but here goes:Food - Youre not paying outrageous prices and you always get great portions for what youre paying. HIGHLY recommend their wings and club sandwich!!!Service - Staff has always been very nice, and the one or two times you my have had a bad experience, management steps up and that person is usually not there for long because they know quality of service matters; this has rarely happened, though, so thats awesome!Specials - Its great to see things like happy hour wings and $1 tacos (and they are NOT stingy when they make these, Im talking great portions!)Events - Feels like almost every day there is something going on like bingo and trivia, but I love the fact they have big events as well for major holidays; they are well known for their charity events thru FINS as well as their major holiday bikini contests!Ambiance - its like Cheers meets the south (minus Ted Danson). People and staff are friendly and environment is kid/family friendly too. Outside patio area is nice and parking is sometimes a little tight!Overall: HIGHLY recommend it. Try their wings, get a couple of drinks, go home happy (but be safe!) 10 out of 5. They also do takeout and deliveries!!!!!

Not only is the food tasteless and the owner racist. He’s also completely unprofessional. Maybe instead of being defensive you can work on making ALL of your customers feel welcomed. Also the way you said “colored” makes you sound like a KKK member.

Review №22

I was shocked at how mild the sauce was for Pineapple Sriracha, but it was thin and liquidy. The wings were overdone and had a tin flavor to them after the sauce was no longer on the bite.Didnt really appreciate their sign on the front door that basically just lets you know that they dont want POC in there, or their other sign that lets me know theyre crotchety old republicans that dont understand being considerate to other cultures. Not that it matters, but I wont be back because of the lack of quality, the lack of social distancing, the servers wearing their masks below their nose, the fact that the vibe inside feels like a musty VFW.Edited after my honest review:I chose to support small businesses instead of chains because I believe in supporting them, which is what Id tried to do with your establishment. Im sorry that youd rather play keyboard warrior than make any changes to your award winning recipes or improve the interior to not look so gloomy at noon.As for being politically triggered, I actually just added the comment on the signs because it 100% says you dont want the business of people who dont agree with your beliefs, which I wouldnt have known if you hadnt have hung them on the sign.If any of my first comment sounded familiar, its because I wasnt the first review to interpret your business like that.god Bless.

With all of these changes all around us. And I dont have a car, I order delivery alot. I was craving Wings and called yall and talk to Miss Jackie, she is so friendly and sweet and even made an excellent suggestion for the wings! It was so amazing and Bull, the delivery guy was very fast and super friendly. I cant thank you enough for saving the day! My new favorite place!

Ive really tried my best to find the best wings in West Central Florida. Ive looked through tons of reviews and sampled countless locations. Nothing compares to the wings at winners circle. Between the seemingly endless list of sauces and the absolutely enormous wings, this place is one of my first recommendations whenever its time to pick where to eat.

We just stopped for a beer, but it looked like a nice place and the beer was very resonably priced. TVs surround the inside of the bar and there are tables outside if you prefer. Well be going back again.

Terrible food and service. Had lunch with my employees here and everything was slow. Table was dirty. Just being here brings you down. Asked for manager but there is none. If in wrong who is the manager? An absent owner is not a manager.

Really not a good place to eat or even be in the same area of. Food is tasteless and drink served in dirty glasses. You can tell what kind of creatures come here. Not your typical human interaction for us normals. Dive bar atmosphere. Who manages this place a sloth?

I stop here almost every time Im in Lakeland. The atmosphere is nothing special but the wings and beer taste great and the prices are better than pretty much any other place. Certain beers are $2, a couple of them even less. Some craft beers on tap too. Great for watching a game and having a cold one!

If you love awesome chicken wings, with a menu of dozens of different styles and flavors to choose from, then this is your place! The food menu is great with so many choices! Beer on tap was great, had a fresh and crisp cold taste that wasnt watered down at all. Our server/bartender Kimmie is the best in the business! She is always on her A-Game, and she is incredibly sexy too!! Serious eye-candy!! ;-) Will definitely be returning to Winners Circle!!

Last night I had a great time at The Winners Circle Sports Bar and Grill. I had the pick 4 combo of wings, potato skins and cheese sticks. Very good and reasonably price.

My new favorite place! Everything was awesome! Great drinks and food! The owner Bill heard it was our first time there and made a point to find us and welcome us! Gave us free passes to the Friday comedy show! 6 hrs of food and drinks (double capt Morgan for 2 of us)all night long for $125. Love the a room! The urinals are Miller light kegs, so fitting lol. Bill, we will be bringing a large group Friday!

A Friend told me this is a must for Wings. I would have to agree that they are some of the best Wings Ive ever had. Im from Georgia and back years ago there was a Restaurant called 3 Dollar cafe. They had the best Wings around. Winners Circle is right there. Big Meaty Wings. If you want them wet then this is your spot. Me personally next time will get sauce on the side. Great new spot for Me and the Wife.

Best wings in South Lakeland in my opinion. Mild, Medium, or Hot,many selections to choose from. Two handed delicious burgers. Not a bad seat in the house with a lot of TVs including 2 huge screens and always showing sports for every sports fanatic and has a fully stocked liquor bar. Staff is friendly and fast.

I agreed at first that it was understaffed...my first visit...but then understood Teresa was probably underchallenged. Service excellent...wings best I ever had. Teresa recommended medium house sauce for wings which were big, she was right size does matter. Will be back often I have to, Teresa told me you better come back, heah
