    Crafty Squirrel has a great menu. They have a great taco deal that comes with chips and salsa. I ordered the cheeseburger tacos. Great flavors with cheese and "special sauce". I would definitely go back and get this again. They have have other choices that sound appealing too. Great service at the bar. Plenty of televisions for game days!

    A friend & I stopped here for a bite before a Tuesday night show at Jannus Live. We were enticed by their Taco Tuesday & Happy Hour sidewalk sign! And we only saw one occupied table inside, plus a few people at the bar, so we hoped they wouldn't be too busy. Walking in, we were greeted by the bartender & told to sit anywhere. But after that, we waited more than ten minutes for a server to approach us. By then we were ready to order everything. We started with the Four Cheese Spinach Dip, which also came with tortilla chips & small slices of toasted bread. We really could've made a meal of this app! It was incredibly tasty. We also each got one taco... I think we chose one chicken & one beef. They were also good, but even better at $3! Cashing out was another wait, as we never saw our server again after our tacos were brought out (by someone else); I had to flag down the bartender who was serving a new table. The infrequent service was disappointing because we initially had plenty of time to order two rounds of drinks before our concert. Nonetheless, I'll return here to try other things on the menu. I love the proximity to Jannus, and there's lots of parking in this area.

    Came here for the Halloweekend bar crawl / anytime I go bar hopping. One of the two best places for dancing in DTSP in my experience! Love the free shot at midnight, staff is efficient and friendly.

    Inside outside spot.... This is the ideal bar!! GREAT HAPPY HOUR!! Wishing i lived here so we could come all the time. At night this area can get kinda crazy!!! We got the $1 oysters for HH and they were really good!! First time having them and I am now a fan. Bartenders were nice, made great recommendations for places near by or in Tampa... overall I will still be thinking about this place after we leave

    Came here to watch football and were pleasantly surprised by the AMAZING food! The salmon poke tots were sooo good! Our bartender was super friendly and on top of things and the ambiance was excellent. Lots and lots of tv's and inside and outside seating. Couldn't complain about any part of our experience here and will def be making this a game day go to spot!

    Saturday afternoon around 3pm, We were just walking by when we decided to stop here and have a drink. Lo and behold, turns out it was happy hour BOGO! In addition, they also have $1 oysters...yep, that's right $1 oysters!! We had just left an Italian restaurant for a late lunch so we were way too full to eat anymore, but rest assure, we'll be back to try the oysters. Definitely a nice place with a good vibe and Highly recommended!

    Went to this bar at 4pm 8/13 Wednesday and waited five mins to get served. Came for happy hour special to be overcharged because I open up a tab. I had $15 on my card. I went for bogo deal 2 for $7 for this incompetent bartender chick to say I don't have money. So I go to bank account and I see $ $12 deducted. Then said when you open up a tab they hold $25 buck. You think you would tell a person that but no because they overcharging or taking advantage of person over there own past experience. Then she call the cops why because I'm black. I will never go this racist establishment again

    One dozen fresh oysters...DELICIOUS! Nice college town feel to the place. Staff friendly and efficient.

    Horrible service. They are a participating in a bar crawl and didn't acknowledge they were participating. Then gave us a mixer drink to get rid of us. Horrible customer service. Never coming here again.

    **** Review 170 ****…read more This place has become a regular for me and it's all because of the wings. They are THE BEST wings in St. Pete hands down! Crispy, juicy, tender, saucy deliciousness. If you just want some of the best wings you've ever had then you need to stop by. But, wings is just one of the items that are great. Their burgers are second to none! So many options, with so many toppings. Burgers are HUGE, juicy, well seasoned. Everything from tenders to peanut butter on a burger....you have to try it! Hot dogs are good too, they're fried so you get a nice crisp snap with every bite. Their sides are always delicious and great beer selection. And everything is reasonably priced for being in St Pete. This place is narrow, but long with seating in the back for larger parties, so it can get crowded. Staff is always really nice and ready to give you recommendations. If you're looking for a great night of wings, burgers and beers with your friends then this is your place.

They're loud, the patrons get rowdy, the waitresses are tougher (and definitely hotter) than me, and if it's not a Boston or New England team, I simply don't care. BUT... Localz changed my mind. Either I'm evolving, or Localz is just operating on a different level entirely. First off, our server- pretty sure her name was Haylee- was an absolute sweetheart. Warm, welcoming, and somehow managed to brighten up one of the most miserably rainy afternoons of my winter. She recommended the Steak & Cheese Tots for me and the Porky Pig Tots for my buddy. And listen... I've been eating tater tots since my juice-box years, but these? These were the crispiest, most perfectly executed tots I've ever had. Not one soggy tot in the entire mountain. It was like the Michelin Guide of tots. Localz is now the gold standard, and everyone else is a distant second. Sorry, I don't make the rules. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu, but as far as St. Pete sports bars go? Localz is officially my new go-to spot.

    This review is for drinks only on a Sunday during the Bucs football game. They have a bunch of tv's…read moreand the volume was on so that you could hear the Bucs game. It appeared on at least four or five of their many televisions. There were also several other football games on. It is definitely a divey sports bar. We did not get food. We got a high top and there was a server that came around and took our drink order. The stools are metal and do not have backs. It was great for what we wanted. The drinks are very affordable.

Korean fried chicken was really regular smokey BBQ sauce on fried chicken with slaw. It was super spicy (too spicy) but not Asian tasting. And way too much sauce. Would recommend with sauce on side or just order something else. The Cuban sandwich was highly recommended by the server and it was an average cuban. The First Ave Burger was just ok. Not much going on between 2 buns. The bread was mush. I'd recommend that they toast the bun to give it some texture.
