Naples Beach Club, a Four Seasons Resort, Debuts The Wager: A New Sports Gastropub and Entertainment Hub

NAPLES, Florida — The coastal luxury landscape of Southwest Florida has a vibrant new destination for dining, sports, and multi-generational recreation. Naples Beach Club, a Four Seasons Resort, has officially announced the opening of The Wager, a dynamic new sports gastropub designed to blend upscale casual dining with live sporting events, craft beverages, and interactive entertainment. Situated within the resort’s lively Market Square, the venue is poised to serve as an energetic social anchor for both resort guests and the broader Naples community.

The Wager offers a versatile layout featuring both indoor and outdoor seating options. At the heart of the indoor space is a prominent central bar surrounded by comfortable table seating and numerous high-definition screens broadcasting live sporting events from around the world. Beyond traditional sports viewing, the venue differentiates itself through an extensive array of interactive entertainment. Guests can enjoy a four-lane regulation bowling alley alongside a dedicated games area stocked with pool tables, foosball, ping-pong, pinball, and classic arcade favorites.

Outdoors, the experience extends to a covered terrace that provides sweeping views of the resort’s putting course and stretches toward The Gardens, the meticulously landscaped, Tom Fazio-designed golf course slated to officially open in early 2027.

"The Wager is a one-of-a-kind destination that reimagines how families and friends come together to dine, play, and connect," said Diego Angarita, general manager of Naples Beach Club, a Four Seasons Resort. "Bringing together innovative entertainment, exceptional food and beverage, and experiences designed for all generations, The Wager expands the resort’s lifestyle offerings while creating a vibrant new gathering place for the Naples community."

Elevated Gastropub Menu

The culinary program at The Wager bridges the gap between comforting familiarity and contemporary culinary craftsmanship, offering a diverse menu that spans classic pub fare, fresh seafood, robust salads, and substantial entrées. Among the signature dishes are Beer-Battered Fish & Chips, served traditionally with mushy peas, tartar sauce, and malt vinegar, alongside a homemade Country Terrine accompanied by cornichons, a toasted baguette, Dijon mustard, and crisp lettuce.

The kitchen also leans into coastal flavors with offerings like the Lobster Grain Salad, which combines nutrient-rich barley and farro with generous chunks of fresh lobster, marinated vegetables, and a vibrant green goddess avocado dressing. Another standout is the Lobster Roll, featuring Tabasco aioli, fennel slaw, alfalfa sprouts, and a side of Old Bay chips.

For guests with a sweet tooth, dessert options include a Warm Skillet Cookie served with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce, as well as an indulgent Kitchen Sink Ice Cream Sundae featuring chocolate and caramel sauces alongside a diverse assortment of toppings.

Families are well catered to with a dedicated children’s menu designed to please younger palates, offering items such as a mini burger, fish and chips, a grilled chicken breast, and mac & cheese bites. To complement the permanent menu, The Wager features rotating weekly specials that celebrate comforting culinary traditions. These include Friday pork sausage with mash and grilled onions, Saturday shepherd’s pie, and a traditional Sunday roast served complete with roasted potatoes, seasonal vegetables, Yorkshire pudding, and savory gravy.

For those seeking quick bites between rounds of bowling or arcade games, a specialized snack menu offers casual finger foods. Selections include grissini served with a blue cheese honey dip, butter or caramel popcorn, sea salt potato chips with a rich onion dip, pigs in a blanket paired with English mustard, and a custom Wager Trail Mix.

Craft Beverages and Local Brews

The beverage program at The Wager has been thoughtfully curated to complement the food menu while offering distinctive cocktail creations and a strong local representation of craft beer. Signature cocktails feature inventive flavor profiles, such as The Wager Pimm’s Cup, which blends Pimm’s No. 1, St. George Apple Brandy, fresh lemon, and ginger. The Azalea #2 offers a refreshing mix of reposado tequila, pomegranate, hibiscus, and lime.

For guests seeking a caffeinated kick with their spirits, the Dew Sweeper blends Jameson Irish whiskey, Guinness, Kahlúa, and cold brew coffee. Meanwhile, the Kingston Julep provides a tropical interpretation of a classic southern cocktail, incorporating Woodford Reserve bourbon, toasted coconut, coconut water, and fresh mint.

The draft beer lineup places a strong emphasis on Florida’s thriving craft brewing scene alongside enduring favorites. Pours are sourced from notable regional breweries including 3 Daughters Brewing, Funky Buddha, Green Bench, Motorworks Brewing, Scotty’s Bierworks, LaBelle Brewing, Kaleidoscope, and Riptide Brewing. A carefully selected list of wines by the glass and a robust offering of non-alcoholic beverage options round out the comprehensive drink menu.

Private Gatherings and Events

In addition to serving as a casual gathering space, The Wager offers dedicated facilities for private celebrations, corporate events, and social gatherings. Overlooking The Gardens golf course, the venue’s wood-paneled private dining room provides a sophisticated, club-inspired setting capable of accommodating up to 40 seated guests.

Attendees of private events gain exclusive access to a private outdoor terrace that showcases scenic vistas of the adjacent putting course, as well as The Gardens’ extensive water features and lush landscaping. To enhance private bookings, guests are provided complimentary access to the venue’s games area and the putting course, with bowling lane rentals available as an additional customization option for events.
