    I am fairly new to area, you advertised nfl Sunday ticket, being the avid football fan we are, we decided to stop in...last sunday( oct 17) we went in....wonderful, very attentive barmaid, clean, all games on, reasonable prices. Went back yesterday (oct 24) barmaid more interested in friends at end of bar. All doing shots the music was soooo loud we could not even talk to each other. When told we were leaving because of that she just shrugged her shoulders. Sad. The people we were meeting, we called them and all went somewhere else 😬🤔. When we left , we talked to another couple and they told us they left for same reason. You pay premium price for the sunday ticket, I would think...At least on sundays...you would cater to that clientele.

    This is such a cool bar! I look forward to their monthly Sunday Bloody Mary bar. So it's a great spot to watch sports, enjoy craft beer, or just chill and people-watch on the open patio. I stopped here every time I'm in town!

    This place is in a great location downtown Winter Haven. Right in the middle of shopping 🛍️!! They don’t sell food. Great place to grab a drink or just hang for awhile. The patio is large and there is a pool table and darts.

    Located in downtown area with plenty of party. The place serve any drink you want but that's it. No drink menu and no food included. You have to go to Tropical Smoothie next door for food.. There's one pole table available, sitting inside and outside. The prices are reasonable.. Make sure the bartender adds enough liquor to your drink. Place was okay.

    Great place to relax and have a drink! All the bartenders are friendly. Pool table, darts, music, alcohol = Fantastic! The location is fantastic. Open and airy, not too busy. There is no smoking inside but you can on patio. Bartenders are good about helping on patio, as well as bar. Ami music app, pool table, darts. Overall great place!

    It's Wednesday 9pm came into the tavern where me and the wife usually come.....come inside the bar and the tender which was a white guy never seen him before having a conversation with another couple tells us to wait cool we wait bout 3 min this guy is still talking with the couple and they both have their drinks and me and the wife are thirsty but in my business i run SERVICE IS FIRST that's why people stay in business now we are getting impatient and me and the wife just left......word after telling him that was rude and he could care less and carried on with his important conversation with the couple......soon as we walked outside a white male walked in and he served him right away go look at the cameras if he lies to y'all lol but we ended up just enjoying our Wednesday night at Jessy's down the road.

    Cool bar. Wish they played sound to the game ( packers and rams.).. Drinks were good. Took a bit of a long time to get service but 2 ladies walked in well after me and got served pretty quickly.. It wasn't crowded... Other than that all was well.

  • 4/5 Patrick M. 2 years ago on Google
    I understand staffing issues in the service industry are rampant. On the other hand train the ones you have. If Guinness is on tap then the bartender should know how to "float" and know what a bar spoon looks like in my humble opinion. I do enjoy the bogo drink text they send out.

    Nice little hole in the wall. Don't expect staff to be friendly, courteous, or prompt.

    We enjoy going to Central Tavern to relax and have a few beverages. We love that it is in the middle of downtown with inside and outside seating. Football has been a lot more fun this year with some awesome snacks supplied by the awesome and very friendly staff. We have lots of fun.! Wonderful Staff, Awesome Drinks, Fun place to watch sports and to top it off fabulous location. Good times. David & Kim Roberts
