Orlando, FL: PopStroke Entertainment Group, a national leader in golf entertainment co-owned by Greg Bartoli, Tiger Woods, and TaylorMade Golf Company, is excited to announce the opening of its 18th location in Winter Garden, FL. Located within Hamlin Town Center, this venue is PopStroke’s second in the Greater Orlando area, following the success of the East Orlando location at Waterford Lakes Town Center. The Winter Garden opening comes on the heels of the Daytona venue’s successful launch in 2024, with the highly anticipated I-Drive location set to open in late 2026. Winter Garden will also mark PopStroke’s 9th location in Florida—a key growth market for the brand. This expansion highlights the growing demand for accessible, innovative, and family-friendly entertainment options.

The Hamlin Town Center, situated in the dynamic Horizon West region, offers an ideal backdrop for PopStroke’s elevated experience. The Winter Garden location spans 1.75 acres and features two expertly designed 18-hole putting courses, a full-service scratch kitchen restaurant, Bar-Tenders, featuring our famous chicken tenders, an ice cream parlor, three lively bars with expansive TVs and jumbotrons, an outdoor gaming patio, a beer garden, and a fully enclosed children’s playground with a soft rubber surface.

A Focus on Elevated Dining & Technology Integration

This opening marks a transformative step for PopStroke’s restaurant concept. The newly created “BarTenders” is a family-friendly restaurant designed to elevate the casual dining experience while highlighting our crowd-favorite chicken tenders and crispy chicken sandwich. Overlooking the greens, BarTenders features an indoor climate-controlled environment as well as outdoor seating that invites guests to sit back, relax, and enjoy a delicious meal in a setting that effortlessly blends outdoor beauty with contemporary design. The bar scene, with its laid-back vibe and expansive views, reimagines the traditional concept of a bar, offering an inclusive and inviting environment for guests of all ages.

The name BarTenders was chosen to highlight our passion for perfecting the perfect chicken tender, and creating a brand focused on hospitality delivered by our best-in-class bartenders.   Chicken tenders have long been a staple and a menu must for the young and young at heart, and now it’s part of an elevated, family-oriented dining experience. At BarTenders, the focus is on delivering a scratch-made menu featuring popular American bar food favorites like chicken tenders, smash burgers, wings, fresh salads, and unexpected fan favorites like ahi tuna nachos.   

“We’re creating a place where families, friends, and guests of all ages can come together to enjoy great food and drinks in a relaxed, unforgettable setting,” said Greg Bartoli, Founder and CEO of PopStroke. “The launch of our first ever BarTenders at PopStroke will direct extra attention to the amazing culinary experience our team has worked tirelessly to build over the years.  Our chicken sandwich and tenders are simply the best!  We want our guests to experience more than just the greens. It’s about making memories, whether you’re here for the golf, our signature cocktails or our amazing chicken tenders.”

The Winter Garden location will also feature PopStroke’s most advanced technology to date, enhancing the guest experience from the moment they arrive. The PopStroke mobile app enables electronic scoring, food and drink ordering, and more, providing a seamless and personalized experience. The PopStroke staff also interacts with the proprietary technology to deliver a best-in-class experience, ensuring every guest is welcomed and served in the most efficient and personalized way possible. The venue will feature customized interactive elements and 36 strategically placed TVs at every hole to maintain an engaging experience. Upgrades such as mister fans throughout the course will keep guests cool on hot summer days, while the indoor/outdoor climate-controlled restaurant and event space ensures comfort year-round.

Greg Bartoli shares his excitement about the opening:

“We’re excited to bring PopStroke to Winter Garden and continue offering Orlando families and visitors an innovative, elevated entertainment experience. As we expand, we continue to push the envelope with technology to deliver personalized, engaging experiences for every guest. Our mission is to redefine family-friendly entertainment, ensuring everyone has fun, regardless of their skill level or background. It’s about bringing people together through something that feels fresh and exciting, and we can’t wait to see our guests enjoy what we’ve created.”

Tiger Woods adds:

“I’m passionate about PopStroke’s mission to grow the game of golf in new and exciting ways. The Winter Garden location is a fantastic addition to the Orlando market, and I look forward to seeing more families and golf fans experience the game in such a fun and innovative environment.”

David Abeles, President & CEO of TaylorMade:

“This is yet another exciting chapter in accomplishing our goal of expanding PopStroke to cities across the U.S. The passionate golfing community of the greater Orlando area deserves an entertainment experience that can bring families and friends together through the game of golf and we are proud to deliver it to them.”
