Wild Turkey Tavern - Avon Park

The service was excellent, and the alligator tail is the best I've ever had. I ordered a burger with chips, while my wife enjoyed the oyster po' boy. Her sandwich was fantastic!

I took my family to the Wild Turkey for the first time on January 29, 2022, and they had a fantastic experience! They loved everything from the food to the service and the vibrant atmosphere. We had to try the gator tail, and it was a hit! My kids were particularly impressed by the mounted game on the walls. During my last few years in the Air Force, specifically from 2008 to 2014 while working at the bombing range, I visited the Wild Turkey often, especially when military units came to train, and they always enjoyed it as well! It was great to see the new outdoor dining option today; it was definitely worth the drive from Manatee County, and as usual, the Wild Turkey did not disappoint!

Excellent service! The Bloody Mary was amazing, and the food was fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed every bite, from the gator tail to the fried green tomatoes to the burgers!

This is a fantastic stop; we drive about 100 miles one way to get here. It's the perfect place for lunch and a few cold drinks. If you enjoy the Gator Bites with their special hot sauce, you'll love it. I usually go for the steak sub with a side of peppers and onions. Yesterday, I also tried the deep-fried pork and it was absolutely delicious and juicy. There were five of us there yesterday, and everyone was very satisfied, as always. If you’re really hungry, the ribeye is to die for!

New owners have taken over! The place looks fantastic with a cozy outdoor fire pit and new tables and benches, perfect for outdoor entertainment. The interior is clean and bright, adding to the inviting atmosphere. The food and service were both excellent! I highly recommend the Wild Turkey to all my friends!
