The service was great. As well, my wife said they made one of the best burgers she's ever had.

We love a good airport restaurant. The ones you find in small airports usually located in the fixed base operations building (FBO). They're the ones that the locals drive to and the general aviation pilots love to find. This little cafe is one of those nice finds. We arrived in time for lunch and seated ourselves by a window looking out to the runway. We ordered a homemade pimento cheese with housemade fried pork skins as an appetizer to start. Service was pleasant and attentive. Hubby got the signature club sandwich the "Jack Brown" and I ordered the blackened fish tacos. The food was well prepared and quite tasty, especially my tacos. The sandwich was big enough to leave leftovers, which we left with. We will remember this place if we are ever in the area again. read more

Nice to have a good restaurant back at Winter Haven airport! These people know how to run an airport restaurant- the hours are convenient for pilots flying in as well as the locals and the food is good and reasonably priced. We stopped in recently for lunch and enjoyed seating on the outdoor patio overlooking the runway and ramp area. The "Jack Brown" club was huge (ended up taking half of it home) and delicious. The "Catch of the Day" sandwich promised local fresh fish, which turned out to be an uninspired but adequate tilapia on a bun. Maybe next time the fishing will be better! We will be back! read more

Upon entrance we were greeted promptly and told to sit wherever we liked. The place was scarce, maybe 5 tables of people and 3-4 servers working. Ordered our food and drinks. I got a pineapple mimosa that was very good and the biscuits and gravy. The portion was very large and filling. My boyfriend got the chicken and waffles and was not given any syrup. Our drinks were never refilled and some of what we ordered didnt come out until we asked for it.c The service is very slow considering they have no customers. An average experience at best. read more

Stopped in for our first meal. We were here during breakfast. I had French toast which was wonderful, my portion was generous. The sausage patty was good, some restaurants not so much. My husband had eggs, grits, and sausage gravy over biscuits. The gravy was cold but when we asked for it to be nuked they immeadilty gave us a fresh order. The biscuit was great. Not a fan of their ice tea, it wasn't southern style sweet tea but that is just my preference. I love the crisp, clean decor and open floor plan. Great space. We will be back, would love to give their lunch a try. read more

Went here with our whole family and had the best food and service in town! Highly recommend the fried green tomatoes, spring rolls and pulled pork sandwich. The steak was also exceptional and we are very very picky with our steak. Everything is brand new and very clean with a great ambiance and decor. There was live music playing classic favorite songs on guitar including some fav Beatles. You have to stop here, don't miss out on a hidden jewel at the winter haven airport. read more

Flew into Winter Haven and had an amazing breakfast at Flightline Cafe. The owner was very friendly and the food was fantastic.

The new owners have made a change to the menu and it is definitely for the better. The pork tenderloin was succulent and cooked to perfection. The Guacamole on the santa Fe burger was fresh and the burger was also cooked to perfection not overdone at all. If in town it's a must do. read more

Best biscuits and gravy! Great friendly staff. I love this place. Great for all ages!

Exceptional service and delicious food. The renovation of the airport/restaurant and new management have made this place of my favorites. My husband and I came for breakfast, we started with fresh ground coffee and the fresh cut fruit plate. Seasonal variety of honeydew, cantaloupe, mango, strawberries, raspberries and grapes. My husband had the hash with eggs, homage biscuit and a cup of sausage gravy. I had two eggs, bacon and sliced tomatoes. Everything tasted very good and looked freshly made. While we were eating we were already thinking what we want to try on our next visit. The service was exceptional, not only from the servers but the owner/manager. The view of airplanes is an extra bonus. read more

Ordered the four tenders and was overwhelmed by how much food there was on my plate. Each tender was full of meat and extremely delicious. Their sauces are also homemade and extremely fresh, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone interested in aviation and good food. read more

A friend of mine and I decided to get out of Palm Beach County for the day and visit a friend in Winter Haven. We used Yelp to find this GEM and boy were they RIGHT. Man we're we pleasantly surprised. The fried green tomatoes were the best I've ever eaten with crumbled blue cheese and bacon on top. Holy crap!!! AHHHHMAZING. Then we both ordered burgers. They came out missing a couple of things but they quickly made it right. The owner is on site. She is super sweet and humble. She apologized to us several times. Then the chef cane out and apologized. We are not used to that in Palm Beach County. Lol. We got tater tots dusted with cinnamon. Again ...Holy crap!!! Sweet potato fries freshly cut and fried. Amaze balls!!!! Did you know key lime pie was actually tan and not green ? Yeah well Me either. Order it!! You won't be disappointed. Half way home we almost turned around for more tater tots. We also learned about a program called fly n dine. I cannot wait to check it out. You should too!!! This place is on my top 5 restaurants I've ever visited!! Awesome food and customer service make it a 5-star joint. read more

Our family just had dinner and the food is amazing. Everyone's meal was outstanding!! The atmosphere was unique and relaxing!! I would highly recommend!!! My kids also gave it high marks!! read more

My wife and I meet here on a regular basis. Always have a great lunch. The owner is a very personable guy who greets his guests and actually speaks with you. The food and atmosphere are great too. read more

Some of the best food I've ever had! The owner was walking around talking and interacting with everyone! I had a burger and my wife had a BLT and both were cooked to perfection, and very hot when brought to the table! I hope to become a regular of this establishment! read more

Awesome place. Nice views of the runway and outside tables available. We've been here for breakfast, lunch & dinner. All were worthy of a return visit. And we come back every time we are in town. Egg white omelette just the way I like it. Fresh, fresh fruit cup. Amir's special twist on hash. The Santa Fe burger was soooo good. My husband had the penne with shrimp and sausage. Loved it. Amir is the owner. He takes great pride in everything he serves. He greets you and stops by to be sure everything is the way you want it. The aviation theme is strong and getting better. This restaurant is surely a winner. read more

First visit. Great food and great service! I would definitely recommend and go back! I had the pulled pork tacos with onion strings. My husband had the spicy crispy sandwich. Both were delicious! read more

I am a frequent flyer flying to all kinds of international and municipal airports300,000+ miles a year. I like the Flight Line Cafe. It's is really classy. I came in for breakfast twice now which the omelette was absolutely cooked to perfection, second choice I chose was biscuits and gravy. Everyone claims buiscuits cooked in house daily (I am a buiscuit connoisseur) they are Some of the largest and fresh biscuits I have ever had. What's amazing to me is you don't have to fly out just to enjoy this place. It's open to the public. The staff is absolutely on point. I have to say also if interested in a adult beverage they are very creative. Repeat customer for life. read more

Delicious food, great service, hidden gem! We had the fried green tomatoes, pimento cheese spread, jambalaya, meat loaf, and sante fe burger and everyone loved it! read more

A new owner has taken over, and the cafe is even better than before. The service is friendly and quick. The food is outstanding. The sausage was fresh and crisp, the French toast was soft in the center with a crispy outer layer. The pancakes were the highlight; buttermilk and grain flavors combined with the syrup to make every bite a trip home to Grandmas house. read more

Great food, great service, great view! This is a nice little hidden gem. The food was spectacular. We will definitely be back!

It was slow getting our food. The wait was not worth it. Only one cook on duty it took 1 hour to get food. Over priced drinks. Had to go to the restroom in the dark. The brisket was like eating at Arbys. The waitress was nice. Never again read more

Great food, best food that has been at the airport! We were a small group having lunch on a Sunday afternoon. We had the pork tacos which were very good! read more

What a pleasant surprise! These guys know what they are doing! The food is spectacular and the prices are reasonable. My two boys (8/11) split a Rueben which was quite large. They finished every bite including the fries. The pastrami sandwich and coleslaw was tender and excellent as well. My wife had the pimento blt (pimento cheese, bacon, fried green tomato) and it basically melts in your mouth. I had the florida spring rolls with pulled pork, collards, and some other surprises (it was creative and delicious). Their dinner selections were not available at lunch, but boy was lunch talked about for the next few hours. The owner was on site, greeted us and checked in with us, nice touch. We will return! read more

Not recommended... Went here as a result of Yelp Reviews. Not a pleasant experience. We were a party of 4 and were served coffee and waters right away. Then there was no one available to take our orders. It appears that all orders are entered by the manager on an electronic pad. Many customers that arrived behind us were delivered food yet ours did not come. I asked the manager if there was a delay and pointed out that we still had not been served. I explained that we had found this resteraunt on Yelp. We told him we were disappointed and he said that did not matter and there would be more customers to replace us. I told him that I would be writing a Yelp review. He told us that he did want to serve us and we could leave. We did read more

Great food and pleasant servers. The owner always comes over to say hello. I usually get the fish of the day. The sweet potato tater tots are completely homemade and delicious. Highly recommended. read more

jambalaya was with Alfredo and parm cheese. Service was bad took over an hour to get food no drink refills never go back

Absolutely fabulous food and the owner is incredibly gracious. So thankful to have a great place to fly to!

First time patron to this establishment, fantastic service, great food. I had the Brisket hash and eggs, the hash is phenomenal, over medium eggs were perfect. The owner/manager introduced himself to me and my wife, very pleasant person to talk with. Finally Winter Haven has about 3-4 really great places to eat, and The Flight Line Cafe can be added to the list. We will be back. And keep up the great work. read more

Absolutely delicious! The food is FRESH! All made from scratch and to order!! The grilled Cesar salad was incredible, it was eaten before we could even take a picture!! If you are in the area - HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! The sweet potato gator tots got the pic because they were like doughnuts - melt in your mouth and just the perfect finish to an excellent meal!! read more

I was going here quite often for lunch and the food was good however on this day we was given one menu as the other one was dirty. My companion looked at my menu and decided what he would like to order before he was brought a menu and happened to mention to the waitress that we was ready to order. Apparently she felt rushed and complained to the manager. (I am assuming as the waitress never returned to our table after dropping off the one menu but the manager did) With that being said the manager approached our table and told us breakfast would take 35 minutes to prepare and maybe we didn't want to wait because he didn't want any animosity. Really? First of all we did not have the opportunity to place an order so how did the manager know how long it would take to prepare our food??? Therefore we figured we was in a round about way being asked to leave (and we did)! I have never been asked to leave a place of business and have never shown ANIMOSITY in any establishment. Needless to say we will not return. read more

Heard they have new owners, so we decided to try this again. The interior is awesome, but for us, anyway, the positive experience ended there. I ordered diet soda and was told it wasnt hooked up, or was out, so settled for water ( I don't drink coffee ). Wife ordered home fries, I ordered the hash browns, to see which was better, but we both ended up with burned (blackened?) home fries. Her over-mediums were too runny, but my scrambled was o.k. Only one slice of toast per order, and they don't butter them, so by the time the toast reaches the table, it's a large, cold, crunchy crouton !! Her sausage patties were also burned, and our server never checked on us, although the other one did. The guy behind the bar/counter (manager?) didnt check on us or ask how things were as we paid and left. Prices weren't bad, $6.95 each for our plates. Don't think they are ready yet. To owner: I suggest a sign whether to seat yourself or not, have the servers or cooks butter the toast, and stop burning the potatoes ! read more
