Had an absolutely amazing time during the Daytona Bikeweek. Lots of cool motorcycles to check out. Shopping from vendor's from all over the place. Ice cold drinks and plenty of vendor's with food to eat. During Daytona Bikeweek you could find just about everything you could image here. We got to watch the Cabbage Patch wrestling which super fun to watch. They also have Micro Wrestling across the street which was funny. Great bands playing music all day. Service from the bar tenders was quick. If you have never been at the Cabbage Patch you have to try this during the upcoming Daytona Biketoberfest. Entry is free. Things get crazy but everyone is very friendly and it's lots of down to earth fun... read more

I stop by the Cabbage Patch several times of the year for live music and fair drink prices; however, to get the best Biker experience possible, you need to patron the Patch during Bike Week or Biketoberfest. The 5+ acres surrounding the Cabbage Patch and Cacklebery Campground are essentially empty until a week or so before notable bike events. Once the events start, beware that SR-415 backs up for 30 + minutes every day around 11:30 am, and traffic tends to be worse on the weekends. Vendors come from all over the United States to participate in motorcycle events selling everything from motorcycle parts to essential oils. There is something here for everyone, even if motorcycles are not their thing. We usually plan our visits around what band is playing and when; however, when live music is not happening, people-watching is of the finest caliber, and the Coleslaw Wrestling is a blast, but you got to get over the wafting aroma of sunbaked cabbage first! Drink and food prices are probably the most affordable among all other event locations during Bike Week and Biketoberfest. I don't know any other venue selling $2 (12oz) Yuengling, Bud, Bud Light, Miller Light, Coors Light, and Twisted Tea; and $3 (16oz) Yuengling, Bud, Bud Light, Miller Light, Coors Light, and Truly. Many food items such as gyros, chicken on a stick, pizza, hamburgers, etc., are $1-less than on Main Street and $2-less than the International Speedway for the same quantity/quality. Due to the stereotype surrounding bikers, I know many people who are hesitant to patron the Cabbage Patch (even my riding buddies); however, I have never experienced any issues. Security is beefed-up for planned events, and police monitor the intersection during peak hours. The staff works diligently to keep canisters empty and Port-O-Lets clean. Furthermore, most of the patrons I have encountered here come to see the custom/classic motorcycles and shows, shop for merchandise and food, and enjoy the live music. I would also say that 99% of the Bikers I have met here have a family, work in a career, care about their fellow person, and have the disposable income to purchase a $16K-$40K "toy." This year marks the 80th Anniversary of Daytona Bike Week. Sopotnick's Cabbage Patch has been open for over 90-years and has hosted Bike Week events since its inception. All-in-all, if you are looking for the "Authentic" Bike Week and Biketoberfest experience, there is no better place to celebrate than Sopotnick's Cabbage Patch Tavern! read more

Ambiance. Known as a biker bar but everyone is welcome. Cold beer and good drinks and sometimes food

An experience mainly for an older patrons. Lots of regulars including myself show up there. Recommend paying by cash since there is an extra charge for credit card use. read more

Great local dive bar. Service is always good and the beer is cold. Also a great time during the events, vendors, food, and bands

If you enjoyed female coleslaw wrestling this place is for you. We usually travel to the Cabbage Patch during Bikefest and Biketoberfest to watch the girls coleslaw wrestling and listening to the bands. Last year we watch Joe Santana playing classic rock tunes, which I think is distantly related to Carlos Santana. They use to give free hot dogs at the bar. Great place. read more

There's no getting around the fact that Sopotnick's Cabbage Patch Tavern is a sleazy rat hole of place but true to biker tradition and one of the better "let it all hang out" biker bars in the country. Though the nearby Boothill may be the Mecca of Daytona biker bars, Sopotnick's is its real pearl. During Biker Event Weekends such as Biketober Fest and Dayton Bike Weekend the place is not only packed but overrun with bikers not only from all over the country but from foreign counties as well. The bar is famous for certain organized events such as the Women's Coleslaw Wresting as well as impromptu unorganized event like the Women's Deep Throat Kielbasa Swallowing Contest. Indeed, there are some who would put a carnival sword swallower to shame. The establishment itself is covered with various graffiti, the outside, the walls, even the ceiling. Some contain some rather interesting sexual reviews, but after reading a few of them, I found them to be rather mixed. For example, as some seem to agree but others don't, there really isn't any way of determining whether or not Frank (fictitious example name) does indeed give a better "head" than Lisa (fictitious example name). LOL! Anyway, Sopotnick's is, though dirty, smoky and grimy, the true epitome of a biker bar and on that basis alone I just can't go less than Four Stars for it. read more

A little bar out in the middle of nowhere that is usually packed during Daytona Bike Week and Biketober Fest. This is not a place for those intimidated easily as this is a tough joint. Cole Slaw wrestling is something to be seen only in person during a lifetime. Girls are completely covered in smelly hot cole slaw and knocking the $hit out of each other. Besides Beer and Booze what else do you need? read more

Sopotnick's Cabbage Patch Tavern - Bars Near Me - New Smyrna Beach, Florida

What a place! Ever since 1995 my wife and I have spent way more time than we should have at and around the Cabbage Patch and the camp areas during Bike Week and Bike Fest. Sadly age and all the walking necessary we stopped attending in 2013. That does not mean we stopped loving the Patch and all the crazy people we've met there over the years. If you like motorsickles, loud pipes and loud people, more fun than is legal, nearly naked ladies, women wrestlers getting dirty and bruised, liquer, bike vendors, and more, then the Cabbage Patch is the place to go no matter what age you are over 21. Keep the damned kids at home and go have fun. With all of the new laws and the old ones being enforced some of the thrill is gone. But don't let that stop you from letting it all hang out! read more

Beers are cold bartenders are really nice I stop in there every day after work on the way home the meat lovers pizza is pretty good definitely a relaxed and laid-back vibe read more

Stayed next door at Cackleberry during bike week. The bands here were much better, so I spent most of my time over here. Good amount of seating, decent drink prices, but the bands were really good. The bands play until 3am during bike week, unfortunately that kept me up nights I wanted to sleep, but it is bikeweek. read more

Best party in town both bike week and Biketoberfest!! Good tent camping but a bit pricey for what you get! Go section 8!

$11.00. Corn beef & Cabbage Special served on a Styrofoam Plate with Cold Potatoes. Thought it was a meal not a snack . Waitress slow . Owner brought me more potatoes in a paper container . Was looking for sit down meal not a to go order. Corona was good with lime read more

I finally made it to the Cabbage Patch after many years of attending Daytona Bike Week. The Cabbage Patch is slightly away from the action and requires about a 35-40 minute drive from Daytona Beach with likely a wait in a long line of traffic. I found CP to be super charming - much more widespread and action packed than expected. We started in the line of traffic spanning about a mile around 12:30 pm. I was having anxiety about missing the coleslaw wrestling which I've been hearing stories about for years. At first the line didn't move at all and we had to turn off the bikes so they wouldn't cook our inner thighs. Thankfully after about 30 minutes they let us pull in and we found parking on the Cackleberry side that was hopping with a live AC/DC cover band, cool vendors and $1 draft beer. We launched into a sprint to get a good spot for the wrestling, but alas, it was already packed with people standing out in the blazing sun. It was a cooler day, but the sun was brutal and resulted in some interesting tan lines. The emcee told joke after joke and kept imploring women to wrestle - even trying to bribe some. I had considered it for about 15 minutes and decided I didn't want to smell like cabbage for an eternity and ruin my new jeans. The joking turned into begging and I started to think no one would be wrestling. Apparently the truck carrying the cabbage was stuck in the traffic also which delayed things for almost 2 hours. They preceded to make the slaw by placing heads of cabbage in a wood chipper one at a time. Once an entire ton was shredded, the referee with her boobs painted to look like cabbages dumped 5 gallons of Wesson oil and proceeded to mix it around with a rake. YUMMY! We stood there patiently with our beer while listening to the live bands playing in the background - people were growing impatient. GET ON WITH IT ALREADY. Finally they lined up some wrestlers of all shapes, sizes and backgrounds, apparently some were veterans of previous years who came back for another go-round. The emcees announce each lady and parade them around before announcing the first match. A wrestler named Little Debbie (not so little) and a smaller, fiesty Latina are first up. They count down 3-2-1 and the woman are at it - tossing each other around flinging cabbage and oil everywhere. The Latina is attacking Lil Deb like a ninja warrior. You can see Debs is officially shook and having a hard time. They take a quick breather and dive back in and that's when it happened.... yes friends... Little Debbie starts to look a little green and puts her hand to her face like she's squashing a nasty burp. The next thing I know she's outright HURLING everywhere and I have it all on video. The whole crowd is appalled - some stepping away and gagging. Little Deb proceeds to reached down into the coleslaw and mix up the barf (mostly beer) with her hands to get it fully integrated with the slaw. The ref and the opponent are just like WHAT DAFAQ DO WE DO NOW. The emcees scramble trying to figure out if they can legally keep this thing going. They run off to the decision maker who apparently says it's OK and the match continues. I can't tell you how things ended because after the spewing, I ran to the first place I could get a beer and never looked back. I heard other people saying that more people spewed and that is something that I really did not want to see anymore of. Obviously this is a first for them and normally this is very fun part of the the Daytona Bike Week tradition. I still give them four stars for a memory I will never forget. I will certainly not hold it against them - there just was no more time to make more slaw. I'm ready to come back next year to see how they can top this! read more

Biketoberfest stop on our way home. Grabbed a beer, and listened to the bands! 2 bands on different stages. We got there pretty late so we missed the coleslaw wrestling but we still enjoyed it none the less! read more

This place is always crowded during Bike Week and Biketoberfest. When I say crowded, I mean bikes and people everywhere, a large rowdy crowd. It is a nice ride from Daytona out here to watch the coleslaw wrestling. The place is rather nondescript but the crowd is very entertaining. read more

We stopped in one night on a whim.... It's definitely a hole in the wall bar. We were skeptical as it looked like mostly a biker bar... But seriously EVERYONE was so nice!! We will definitely be going back! Great drink prices too! read more

OUTSTANDING bartenders!! Always a good time - always entertaining to say the least! Never know just what you'll see while you're there. Great bands almost every Friday or Saturday night, not just during Bike events. Where you come to see old friends and to make new ones! read more
