Things To Do
Armature Works
Armature Works is one of our favorite spots in all of Tampa. It is an Industrial Market Hall with multiple local food vendors, rooftop bars, inviting outdoor space, riverfront views and access to the Tampa Bay River Walk. Our favorite spots are M.Bird (rooftop cocktail bar) and Oak & Ola (top notch espresso martinis!!!).
Ybor City Historic District
Originally established as a cigar manufacturing district in the early 1900's by Cuban, Spanish and Italian immigrants, Ybor City today is one of the most historic and renowned neighborhoods in all of Tampa. This is the place to be to try authentic Cuban cuisine, coffee and of course cigars. Taba Brew stands out as our top choice in Ybor City, offering a truly unique experience where you can enjoy the finest Cuban con Leche coffee paired with an authentic Cuban cigar, all within a relaxed and eclectic setting.
Water Street
Water Street is Tampa's newest neighborhood district that has changed the skyline of Tampa and rejuvenated Downtown Tampa. Located on the channelside of Tampa Bay and surrounding Amalie Arena, this is one of the coolest places to walk around in the city. Make sure to check out the Edition Hotel (Tampa's first 5-Star Hotel) and Sparkman Wharf (waterfront beer & wine garden).
Columbia Cafe at the Tampa Bay History Center
The oldest continuously operated restaurant in Florida and the oldest Spanish restaurant in the United States, Columbia Cafe is a must go to when in Tampa. The Authentic Cuban Sandwich here will make you never look at food the same again.
Bayshore Boulevard
Scenic sidewalk along the Tampa Bay to enjoy a walk or ride bikes and catch sights of amazing wildlife such as Manatees and Dolphins! This is one of our favorite places to go in Tampa and became our stomping ground for rollerblading during Covid.
