Things To Do
Columbia Restaurant
Down the street from our reception. This would be a great spot to grab a drink or appetizer in between Mass and the cocktail hour.
Hyde Park Village
Great for window shopping and eating ice cream by a fountain!
Bayshore Boulevard
For those who love walking or running, Bayshore is second longest continuous sidewalk in the United States. And you have a beautiful view of Tampa Bay the whole way!
Tampa Riverwalk
Another great walking or running spot! You'll have the Hillsborough River on one side and downtown Tampa on the other.
Oxford Exchange
Great place to eat, grab a coffee, and shop!
Big Ray’s Fish Camp on the Riverwalk
For the foodies: BEST Grouper Sandwich in Tampa. Hand's Down. If you want the authentic fish-shack-feel, their original location is on Interbay Blvd.
Armature Works
A restored warehouse turned food hall. It is right on the Riverwalk so you can grab a bite to eat (or some ice cream) and walk along the Hillsborough River.
J.C. Newman Cigar Company
Tampa is "The Cigar City". Many immigrants in the late 1800s and early 1900s came from Spain and Italy to work in Tampa's cigar factories, including Sarah's paternal ancestors. J.C. Newman Cigar Company is America's oldest family-owned cigar maker. They offer factory tours and have a museum.
Tampa Bay History Center
For the history enthusiasts!
