Central Florida’s newest attraction, PopStroke, just opened its doors in Winter Garden, West Orange County. Golfers will be highly pleased, and so will foodies.
PopStroke has been popping up all over since 2019. It’s an experiential golf and casual dining concept, combining a lively, technologically sophisticated mini-golf environment that is open to guests of all ages.
This is the 18th location to open and the second in the Orlando area, following the success on the east side of the city in Waterford Lakes Town Center. PopStroke Entertainment Group is co-owned by Greg Bartoli, Tiger Woods, and TaylorMade Golf Company.
The Jupiter, Florida-based company opened its first location in Port St. Lucie, and Bartoli says the growth has been non-stop since.
“We’ve seen huge momentum across the United States, with Florida leading the way. PopStroke resonates with our guests because it brings something new to the market: an all-ages experience that blends competition, food, and fun in a way that’s easy to access but still feels elevated,” said Bartoli. “We’re continuing to expand in metro Orlando because the demand is here. People are looking for more ways to spend time together, and PopStroke is filling that gap.”
Much like TopGolf or FootGolf at Disney’s Oak Trail, PopStroke introduces the sport to new participants in a fun, inviting, and flavorful way.
“PopStroke is more than a round of mini golf. You’ve got two 18-hole courses designed to test your short game, plus Bartenders, our full-service restaurant and bar with a scratch kitchen, cocktails, craft beer, and a full-service ice cream parlor,” Bartoli added.
A bird’s-eye view of PopStroke West Orlando reveals a vibrant fusion of tech-driven putting courses, lively dining, and family fun—all powered by Tiger Woods’ vision.
There’s an outdoor playground and games like foosball, ping pong, and corn hole. A great environment to hang out with friends and stay awhile. It’s family-friendly and a place to watch a game on the big screens as well.
With the east side of Orlando thriving, Bartoli and the team set their sights on the vibrant energy near Disney and the west part of town.
“Horizon West is one of the most exciting areas in Central Florida. It’s growing fast and attracting the kind of energy and development we want to be part of,” Bartoli said. “With Hamlin Town Center emerging as a hub for dining and entertainment, we saw an opportunity to be part of that growth and bring something new to the table.”
PopStroke fits right into the lifestyle that’s being built here, and Woods, the 15-time major winner, was also very deliberate in his investment in this proven concept.
“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,” Tiger Woods said.
Dining and Technology Converge at PopStroke
If delicious dining is also your thing, you will want to eat at “BarTenders.” The focus is on providing a made-from-scratch menu with something to please almost anyone. PopStroke is particularly proud of its chicken tenders, wings, smash burgers, freshly prepared salad options, and unique items such as ahi tuna nachos.
Bartoli says this newest location features PopStroke’s most advanced technology to date, enhancing your experience from the moment you arrive.
The PopStroke mobile app enables electronic scoring, food and drink ordering, and more. It provides a seamless and personalized experience. The PopStroke staff also engages with proprietary technology. This helps provide what owners describe as a best-in-class experience, ensuring every guest is welcomed and served in the most efficient and personalized manner possible.
The venue has customized interactive elements. There are also 36 strategically placed TVs at every hole to maintain an engaging experience.
Guests can stay cool with Mister Fans installed throughout the course. The indoor/outdoor climate-controlled restaurant and event space is designed to provide year-round comfort.
Membership Offers Special Privileges
As with all PopStroke venues, the Winter Garden location offers an exclusive monthly membership program. This provides access to all PopStroke locations currently located across Florida, Texas, Arizona, Alabama, Nevada, and South Carolina. There are also additional venues in development.
