I had such a great experience at The Wicked Wheel! The food came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The staff was friendly and checked on us the perfect amount without hovering. The vibe inside is fun, clean, and very family-friendly. I definitely see why this place stays busy — everything from the service to the portions was on point. I’d absolutely come back again!

After seeing the reviews for this place I decided to check it out for Friday night dinner. It was well packed, service was good from beginning to end and the food was delicious. We spent about $80. Got two cocktails, Chicken fried chicken, fish platter and the buffalo chicken dip. Portions were a nice size, quality was hot, fresh and seasoned to perfection. I will keep this place in mind when visiting PCB.

Visited last night and loved everything about it. Food was excellent, served hot and presented beautifully. Our server, though we can't recall her name, was engaging and helpful. She's from Cincinnati and we're from Ohio so maybe that will help😉 I had the amazing chicken sandwich, hubby had the catfish and fried okra. Atmosphere of motorcycles was fun! Only recommendation is that they make an appetizer platter because we wanted to try all of them! All was great! Highly recommend!

Great place for some comfort food and a good vibe‼️ Panama city beach is no doubt a town full of your typical tourist traps. yet, this is a locally owned establishment that can definitely scratch the itch of an empty stomach. Of course went off the bartenders recommendation and grabbed their highly reputable fried chicken and I opted for the red beans and rice as a side. Man, the chicken was definitely good. the red beans and rice tho..... phenomenal 🔥 had a pour of E H Taylor for desert, so bourbon selection was there 🤣Dave the bartender was a great host! and lemme tell you. A regular came in and bought everyone at the bar a drink of choice, so the southern hospitality .... 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 is all I can say. Great place, check it out if your in PCB ‼️

I've been coming to PCB for decades, and the only "bad" thing I have to say is that this is the only time I've ever been able to get into Wicked Wheel. Usually, we come in the height of summer and there's like a 3 hour wait just to get to the hostess... Anyway, no wait tonight in September. We sat at the bar. Dave our bartender was awesome. Seemed a little too polite and professional for the atmosphere of the place, almost like he used to work at a high end hotel. But great service throughout the entire meal. For the meal, we started off with the garlic cheese curds which were a solid 7.5 out of 10. My wife got the candied bacon bbq burger, and I got the wicked hot chicken sandwich. Both were good. The chicken on mine was MASSIVE. We got a key lime pie for dessert, which if you like key l
