I love me some chicken wings. And this place has some truly excellent ones. You can get from 5 to 50 and get them in different flavors, guy style being my favorite. The wings are done slightly crispy on the outside and juicy ok the inside. I can't tell you much about the rest of the food as I haven't tried it...lol. But the wings are a home run. The restaurant is bar style so not everyone will like the atmosphere, but service is great and they are all enthusiastic about the wings. We will almost always come here if chicken wings are on our list to grab. I'd def reco recomend you try thme out! read more

I visited Bilmar Station last night with friends and my spouse after celebrating here a few months ago and having such a great experience that I wanted to come back. The atmosphere delivered again. Bingo and karaoke were a lot of fun, and the wings were solid. That said, one interaction left a lasting impression. When our tacos were delivered, everyone at the table had ordered beef except for my spouse, who had one chicken taco. We asked the food runner, Brian, if he could help us identify which taco was the chicken so she didn't accidentally eat beef. Instead of assisting, he threw his hands up, mumbled under his breath, shook his head, and walked away while we were still asking a simple question. The reaction felt dismissive and unnecessary given the situation. While I stepped away from the table, I was told he later returned to apologize and shared that he had been yelled at in the back and took that frustration out on us. I appreciate the apology and understand that everyone has tough moments. I also learned he has been there a long time and may face personal challenges. Even so, guests should never feel the impact of internal stress. Respect and basic communication are part of the hospitality experience. To their credit, the bartender stepped in and comped my last round of wings, which felt like a genuine effort to make things right and was appreciated. I still had a good night overall, but the interaction left a lasting impression that I won't forget. Bilmar Station has a fun vibe and good food, and I hope this feedback helps ensure the guest experience stays consistent. read more

This place is AWESOME! Wow the wings are so good. I got the recommendation from our server and I'm glad I did. So good. It's a bar with seating around and table service. Just walk in and find a table. Staff is friendly. Definitely going back here. Even raved about this place to friends. read more

Bilmar Station - Soo Good!!! - Sports Bars Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Ok...went the first time and the Philly cheesesteak was delicious. Service was pretty good. Second time, the bartender was doing us a favor by even acknowledging us! We almost walked out. Food was meh. Third time, service was absolutely awful! And the food (nachos and tacos) was terrible too!! I think I'm done trying. I love that it's a neighborhood bar, but all the waitstaff can't just stand around and shoot the shit! read more

Parking is easy it's in a strip mall and after 8 pm most of the other businesses are closed. They have daily specials and game specials too. I've been coming here for years. They've changed it quite a bit. It's no longer smoke inside, they're now open for lunch and they've rearranged it to fit more people. They're known for their wings ask for the wings Kurt style so they're extra crispy or Guy's style which is their signature way. The service is top notch. My suggestion is if it's busy get a table then go to the bar to get your first round of drinks. They have table service but if it's busy then you may want to order at the bar. As far as things to do there are a lot of TV's so this is a great spot to catch a local game. They've got pinball, a golf style arcade game and a bowling game, they've also got darts and a touch tunes machine. If you're want to try the Bay's Best Wings and catch a game definitely stop by. read more

This is a place where you go to enjoy the local atmosphere, greats drinks, great food, games and all sporting environment. Did I mention the fact of Best Wings in town! The bartenders and cooks will always take care of you. A place where if you want to sit, watch sports, and just chill. This is the place! read more

I heard this place had the best wings in tampa bay from multiple people. So I tried this place out and everyone was right. This place has the best ck wings in tampa bay. I tried the garlic parm wings, by far the best wings I have ever had! The drinks were very good as well. Great pricing, a great pour and great price! A lot better than downtown tampa $20 drinks $50 parking and $75 dinner plates. I love the dive bar feeling in there as well. Ashley was amazing the best bartender in the bay. I will be back Bilmar station. read more

Bilmar Station - Wall of foam. You have to drink a certain amount of beers in a certain amount of time. - Sports Bars Near Me - Tampa, Florida

The wings are A-1 but if you not into food but you're into extra curricular activities like sniffing cocaine then you've come to the right place. I was in the restroom and I heard someone hitting a couple bumps in the stall. The bartenders know they sell it out back and the local sheriff did nothing about it. Officer Morozov and his other officers did nothing about the fact of them having cocaine on their person. So feel free to do as you wish at Bilmar. The place where apparently anything goes. read more

Great! First time here and I got the cheesesteak. It was on the smaller side (I ate half of it before I remembered to take a picture) but worth it because it's only like $8. I ordered the churros for dessert. We ordered pick up and it was ready fast! read more

I love this spot. I'll go on weekend afternoons and it's typically quiet. Bartenders are great, beers on tap are good. I've had the cheesesteak which is pretty damn good and the wings. I'm not a wing guy. I don't even eat them - never been into them. But I go thru about 20 at a time when I'm here. Legit the best wings I've ever had. I get Guy style and I don't know what else because I'm usually hammered. I've been telling everyone to hit this joint. I'm becoming a regular. read more

The food and service are good, this is a typical sports bar, lots of seating, plenty of dart boards and other diversions. A nice neighborhood bar and grill. The wings are pricey, but fat. Loved it the 3-4 times I've been in. read more

I've given it 5 visits, each time hoping for something better. Without question, a shit hole with the worst service, without question, in Tampa. The wings are literally the only reason to come here. They are decent, given. This place has an attitude that is undeserved and the chronically vaping and self absorbed staff wear it like an unearned badge. And that what makes this place just suck. Attitude and poor service. try Longbar. I won't be back. read more

Bilmar Station has been around for so long but I've only known about this sport bar for about less than a year and this is the most spot to feel amazing ambience and atmosphere with energy that is ridiculous in the most positive way.. Just real individuals people that care and amazing food. I totally recommend this location. read more

Bilmar is a hidden gem here in the old TNC. I grew up in Town N Country and apparently it's been around since my youth. Our family moved to Westchase at the end of last year, and the hubby and I first checked out Bilmar in January 2020. We've been coming at least once a week ever since. Pros: Awesome food (no, really, you'd never know this deliciousness was being served at a dive bar!) at great prices, especially at their various "nights" like Burger Night, Taco Tuesday, etc. VERY generous pours (you almost get a double of whatever you order) at very good prices Video games, darts, BuzzTime, TouchTunes, lots of TVs, karaoke, etc. Fun, friendly bartenders who remember you and what you like to order Usually crowded, so you have a chance to meet and talk to a lot of people, most of whom you will run into again Cons: Smoking is allowed. As a non-smoker, this drove me insane on my first couple of visits, but I've slowly gotten used to it and/or it annoys me less. Just realize that you may go home smelling like a dirty ashtray, and you'll be okay. read more

Best wings in Tampa! Good ole bar to watch sports in and play darts. People are nice.

Nice little bar located off of Hillsborough and Sheldon Rd. Place is a little bar with the very best wings in town. Tonight's drink is the Evan William's Peach with a splash of Sprite. Very good.The drinks here are always worth the money spent. They have daily specials posted see pictures below. Also they have long specials as well. Very friendly bar staff no matter what time or day you decide to stop bye. They do allow people to smoke. So sometime it can be a little smokey but overall this is the place to be. read more

Bilmar Station - BLT - Sports Bars Near Me - Tampa, Florida

We have came here all the time and the main guy/manager is amazing. Every other bartender/server there sucks. Two guys specially. They will stare at you and watch you come in and not even greet you or come get a drink/food order. The past few times we have been in they have took 20-30 minutes to take my drink order. Literally no reason or exception for the service they give. The food itself is amazing but you won't ever taste any if the servers don't serve you. They need to be fired. The environment is always a hit or miss too. read more

Good food specials. Wonderful hangout dive bar atmosphere. Extremely attentive service. Will come back often

Best wings in the area! We are obsessed with the hot wings and the garlic hot! Strong drinks and friendly staff. Best place to play darts! Lots of fun here at Bilmar! read more

Aside from feeling like I walked into a box full of lit cigarettes, I think that it is a pretty cool dive bar. It is a very unassuming place from the outside and I wouldn't have given it a second thought (since you can't see in from the outside) if I wasn't specifically looking for the place. The inside is surprisingly larger than I had expected and for those who are there to "have a couple of games with their drinks", there has to be 12 or more televisions for your viewing pleasure. As you would expect, there is sport paraphernalia all over the walls and a cool mural or two. I like the decor and ambiance (sans the perfume of yesterday's cigarettes). My party of 2 ventured in this past Sunday and arrived just in time for the 1 o'clock games -- the place was pretty much empty so I decided that I could brave the depraved air and stay awhile. We were immediately greeted by Ashley and she was on it -- She ran down the specials for the day and got the drinks going. After sampling a few items on tap, We started with an order of mozzarella sticks. They were pretty average, about what you would expect from the average box-n-bake variety at your local grocer. Next we ordered the 15 wings; I took my half hot with a side of nuclear sauce. Hey, they told me it was hot so I was hesitant to have my wings coated. In the end, the sauce was very good and I almost regret not having the sauce put directly on them...but the combination of the two different sauces (plus ranch) was pretty tasty. As time went on, more folks came in to watch the games and after the 4th smoker (or so) blazed up, I couldn't handle it. Sadly, I had to leave. For as long as I could stay in there, I enjoyed my time, received good, attentive service and I thought the decor was cool. So I give it a 4 stars. Thanks to the Yelpers that put this place on the map. read more

Stole my French bull dog.. Left him up there for his dad went back 1 hr later he was gone.

I was just at Bilmar station. I am 100% disabled veteran and I am quiet and I'm reserved. Even when I'm treated poorly I try to always be respectful. So anytime that I needed a drink or to order food even though I was sitting at the bar and the bar was not crowded I had to wave down the bartender. So I asked for my check and I put my debit card out right away she saw me do it but she walked away and then she never came back so 10 minutes later because my Uber was coming I walked over to where she was talking with her friends because that's what she was mainly doing and she accused me with great attitude did I threw things at her which I did not I handed her my debit card and she said the look on my face that I was angry I didn't say anything I was not angry in any way I just needed to go. She be rated me and when I called to talk to the manager of course she was a manager and I told her how poorly she treated me and she argued with me and talked bad about me again. I don't deserve this I have fought hard for my country and all I want is respect that I give in return. I don't think because I don't go there on a regular basis that I should be treated poorly because I am not what is considered a regular. I went there to relax and to have a good time and it ruined everything. read more

One of the kitchen workers was in the shitter. Walked out without washing his hands. I mentioned it to the bartender. She said she would take care of it. She continued to serve other patrons. I was talking to my date about how safe it was. She proceeded to scold me about how she would take care of it. I would not recommend anyone going here unless you want to get sick. read more

Great neighborhood bar. Great drinks, food and staff. Love bilmar. Cum play darts at bilmar.

Just recently moved to the area and started coming here! It's the perfect sports bar/dive/fun for everyone kinda bar! The bartender ashley rocks! Such a sweetheart and don't even get me started on the food! Such a hidden gem! Okay thank you Bilmar!!! Look forward to the next time I stop by! read more

Well. They do have strong drinks, great wings, other food is very good. Bartenders have a fun and spicy attitude, but their tvs are small and outdated with some broken for awhile....cardinal sin for a sports bar. Napkins are worse than one ply tp! Other than that, highly recommend! read more

This is hands down the best bar in town n country! First of all best food at a bar at all I'm the area! Second of all the bartenders are absolutely amazing! They care about you and know and have a relationship with basically every single person that walks in the bar! Ashley, Maddy, Corey, James, and Stephanie are absolute gems of bartenders at an absolute gem of a bar in an otherwise pretty quiet part of town which makes this bar one to go to in Tampa! I suggest ordering their Guy style chicken wings for food and if you don't like chicken on the bone (like me) they also have Guy style tenders that are to die for! You absolutely 100% will not regret stepping foot in to this bar and if you live in Tampa you will mostly likely continue returning because the bar, the customers and the people who work there are all absolutely amazing! read more

Local Bar with great bar food and great strong drinks. They also play all the football games and other sports.

For a local pub Bilmar is the place! First, all of their staff are great. If I owned a bar, they have the people I would want to work for me! I thought we had good wing options downtown, but Bilmar does things their own thing and love it. I learned they make their nuclear sauce in house and is probably the best wing sauce I have had. Burgers are solid. At one of their staffs recommendation I got a grilled cheese once and now order regularly as well. If you come here expect good people, drinks that are stiff / generous pours and draft beers are perfectly cold served in a chilled glass. I can show up here after work or after a day on the boat and fit in. Good crowd and overall good experience. read more

If you can't handle second hand smoke or find it disgusting then Billmar isn't the place for you. It's a real smoky bar and a friend of mine had to walk out because he couldn't deal with it. Having said that, this is a really good Buffalo Wild Wing alternative if you prefer non-chain local places like do. I'm not a hater of B-Dubs as much as I am corporate-type franchises that all look the same no matter where ya' go and offer the same overpriced food + drinks. Bilmar is a divvy throwback sports bar for people who like good bar food, strong drinks and sports. It's smoky but like I said, this is an old school sports bar where that's allowed. A guy lit up a cigarette right beside me and about half the other patrons were smoking as well. You rarely see that nowadays...only in Wild West movies! No biggie for me, 2nd hand cigarette smoke doesn't bother me one bit (I think the dangers on that are a little overblown) however more sensitive people might not be able to take it. My grandmother used to smoke like a fish in front on me when I was little so I've built up an immunity to it, in fact it gives me a sense of nostalgia. There are plenty of TVs for you to watch any game. Ask the bartender to change the channel if you walk in and your game isn't on. They have a remote for every television, however, a few aren't in HD. I came here because some other people wrote that the wings were surprisingly good here. They didn't disappoint. They were super juicy + flavorful. Plus, they don't skimp you on the dipping sauce, where had huge chunks of blue cheese in it. The cost is more than reasonable: 10 wings for $8 or 15 for $11 is pretty damn good! That's not their happy hour menu but their regular price and most other similar places that offer wings charge at least $3 more than that. Draft beer selection...adequate. They have about 20 different choices with a nice mix of your standard domestics and local breweries. Nothing fancy but you'll find something you like. Most of their clientele includes die-hard loyal Rays and Lightening sports fan who know the bartenders by name. Everyone is cool and relaxed, unless the TB Lightening score a goal on a power play. Every Wednesday is karaoke night. Service was fine. Good was good. It looks sketchy from the outside but I think this is a pretty legit small sports bar in West Tampa. read more

I wandered in here just because it was there and I could. What a great time! If your a people watcher, you have a 360 degree view, and what a view it is. I agree definitely a dive bar, but no complaints on that fact. The fact that it is a dive bar earned it its stars. If you want to play games, go for your choice and pretend you are doing some indoor camping. You gotta love this place and you have to love that they know how to pour a great dive drink, a nice heavy pour. If you want to be alone, no problem, folks will leave you alone. If you feel like a side of socializing with your drink, you don't have to look far to find a fellow dive bar participant to have an opinion. Ambiance, is almost what you'd expect, if you ever knew what to expect from a dive bar. What's a girl to do? Pull up a stool and sit a spell, while enjoying the ever changing view around you. read more

I love this bar! I have been coming here for years. If you like dive bars then this is your place. The drinks are strong and the beer is cold. For food I would only go with the chicken wings. The nuclear wings are very flavorful and very HOT. You can play everything form darts to corn hole here. The only thing they don not have is a pool table. Great for watching the game too. They have a lot of big flat screens. read more
