Victory Sports Grill: A Winning Spot in Middleton

Another WIN for the FMK Hospitality Group with the opening of their latest establishment, VICTORY SPORTS GRILL.  I love when plans fall through and you end up where you were meant to be – A Winning Spot in Middleton.  Today I was fortunate to check out the Grand Opening festivities and see a part of The Villages I hadn’t seen yet.

If you’re looking for a fresh hangout spot to grab a bite, catch a game, and soak up some good vibes, Victory Sports Grill should be at the top of your list. Nestled directly across the street from the charter high school in the southern end of The Villages in Middleton, this sports bar is bringing its A-game to the local dining scene.

The Vibe

Walking into Victory Sports Grill feels like joining the ultimate game-day party. Mathew and Macie are there to greet you with their winning smiles. The decor is sporty yet modern, with large flat-screen TVs lining the walls, ensuring you won’t miss a second of the action. The energy here is infectious, and whether you’re a die-hard sports fan or just looking for a lively place to unwind, the atmosphere delivers.

And let’s not forget about the outdoor bar and patio! This spacious area is perfect for enjoying a meal or drink while soaking up some fresh air. With comfortable seating and a relaxed vibe, the patio is an ideal spot for casual gatherings or simply unwinding after a long day. I was hoping to grab a seat outside, but the only spot left was inside…which was perfect!  Behind the bar, Luis and Kortnie were serving up beverages, crafting everything from refreshing cocktails to ice-cold beers that hit the spot.

The Food

Victory Sports Grill has all the classics you’d expect from a sports bar menu—but with a twist. From loaded tots with all the fixings, to tacos and quesadillas to juicy burgers cooked to perfection and “Championship Entrées” the food is a slam dunk in its own right. And if you’re in the mood for something lighter, the fresh salads and shareable appetizers won’t disappoint. Make sure you save room for their “Stadium Sweets”!  I will be back with friends for the Smores Skillet for Two!  With so many options, my new friend, Luis gave me his recommendations and I opted for the BBQ Pork Potato Skins—SCORE!

I love sitting at the bar by myself. You meet the best people and get to have great conversations. It was fun chatting with some Villager Eats followers, I just wish I remembered to get their names. These lovely ladies enjoyed the Fish Tacos and Fried Haddock Sandwich –both looked crispy and light.

The Drinks

What’s a sports bar without a stellar cocktail playbook? Victory Sports Grill offers a range of bottled beers and drafts, classic cocktails, and non-alcoholic options. I loved the Strawberry Bliss Rita. Their everyday specials are worth stopping in for—great deals on drinks that pair perfectly with the game. How about “Overtime” $6 Martinis and $12 Bud Light or Yuengling Pitcher?

Worth the Drive

While Victory Sports Grill is located on the southern end of The Villages, it’s well worth the drive if you’re coming from the northern side. The combination of great food, vibrant atmosphere, and excellent service makes it a standout addition to the community.

Final Thoughts

Victory Sports Grill is more than just a restaurant—it’s a whole vibe. Whether you’re stopping in after a high school game, meeting up with friends for drinks, or treating yourself to a night out, this spot has something for everyone. If you haven’t checked it out yet, make the trip. Victory awaits!
