    Chicken Biscuits and Gravy
    Marci K.

    We woke up on our final Sunday in Tampa, in need of serious sustenance after a night of liquid overindulgence, so were happy this was within walking distance of our hotel and had open bar seating immediately available for us. The bartender/server was so friendly and even tried to remind us about the benefits of "the hair of the dog" but we were zombies and had a flight home later that day so unfortunately couldn't try anything from their cocktail menu, but the descriptions are great. I did get The Morning Quesadilla which was filled with eggs, veggies, and bacon with a smoky dip on the side. It was delicious but very big- it could have easily been shared. My husband ordered the Chicken Biscuits and Gravy, which he loved. I stole a bite of the biscuit and it was really airy and tasty. The prices were reasonable brunch prices- about $20 per person. There was a lively morning crowd around us, good 80s music playing, and plenty of bottomless mimosas were happening!

    07-Jul-2025 Today we are in Tampa after getting off of a cruise ship. We decided to stop by District Tavern to have a meal before some of our group headed to the airport. Our server was Heather and she was amazing! The food is really good. There are plenty of seats, good music and most of all...the food is great! We were just passing through Tampa, so we are not sure we will be back, but we did enjoy this spot. We came for the nachos and we were not disappointed! Thanks, Ashley & Lindsey Head

    The District Night Cocktail

    This place absolutely nailed it. The drinks were so good -- perfectly balanced, flavorful, and strong, everything that you want in a drink. You can tell they don't just throw ingredients together; everything tasted intentional and well-crafted. The food was even better. The fries had the best seasoning -- crispy, flavorful, and honestly addictive. The Buffalo mac and cheese was creamy with just the right amount of heat, and the homemade chicken tenders were next level. You can taste that they're made in-house -- juicy, crispy, and not your typical frozen tenders. The smash burger was massive, enough to split amongst two people with leftovers to go! Juicy burger with caramelized onions and gooey melted cheese. Everything was to perfection. Between the drinks and the homemade comfort food, this spot is definitely worth coming back to. Highly recommend!

    This was a nice spot that was around the corner from my hotel room in Tampa. The service staff were friendly and attentive. The food was decent, but a little on the bland side. It wasn't bad though, just typical bar food. If anyone is looking for a quick bite to eat, they should visit District Tavern for sure.

    Yum yummy

    BEST spot for late night. We came here after a hockey game and out of the choices around, this was best in the area. Bartenders were so accommodating and fast.

    DT Smash Burger

    Stumbled upon this restaurant while going to the UPS and I must say they have some bomb burgers and wings! We got the smash burger and traditional chicken wings (half buffalo sauce and have lemon pepper dry rub). Both were excellent! Customer service was also super nice and the ambiance resembles a traditional bar. Overall, their food was great and we really enjoyed our experience!

    Sophisticated bar with drink specials, craft beer and clean draft lines. I had a Funky Buddha Sweet Potato Casserole ale here and I swear it tasted better here than at Funky Buddha. Or, it could have just been it was my first beer of the day. In any case, delicious. From what I could tell, they have a decent spirit selection. There were at least 4 or 5 craft beers on tap and some of them were local, winning!!! My bartender was Cari and she was great. There are happy hour specials Monday - Friday from 4pm -6 pm. They have specialty cocktails and I think bottomless mimosas Saturday and Sunday for brunch, as well as a brunch menu. I didn't try any food here, but maybe next time. All in all a great visit.

    It's like the modern Cheers! The atmosphere, service, food & drinks are all above & beyond. Great for watching games, talking to friends, group meetups and even trivia on Wednesdays. Meet people from all over that are going to cruise or visiting. Hang out w locals. Amazing spot! Highly recommend!

    Typical bar with a young crowd and good chicken tenders. Spacious and not too crowded. Light and fun atmosphere

    Hands down, the best Mac n cheese in town. Incredible service and even better Michelob ultras (bottles). I first came here in 2018 with my wife and kids and just recently stopped back in 8 years later and this guy was still there! Not sure who he is but the only thing he said was "she's from Texas I can tell". Seems like a great guy.

    We had Sunday brunch and cocktails. Food was tasty and drinks were well poured. It's basic but reliable. Good bar service. Music on the weekends. Convenient parking garage across the street.

    DT Old Fashioned

    Let's be honest. It's a noisy sports bar, but d@mn, the food was good! I had the pesto chicken, which, was wonderful. But, my wife had the steak frittes, which had an amazing sweet beer cheese sauce and perfect tender, seasoned steak. The DT old fashioned was one of the best old fashions I've even had....and that's saying a lot! Get past the noisy atmosphere and you'll love this meal.

    Walked in to a loud "HIP HIP!" and immediately knew I was in for an experience... just not sure what kind yet. gave him $20 to pay his tab.

    walked in and immediately heard 'HIP HIP!' Highly recommend the mac and cheese with chicken. At one point this guy took my girl and I ended up paying his tab ... still not sure how that happened. Would come back

It was noted on the reservation, so my opinion is Craft Tampa should be consistent in this: either acknowledge all special occasions, or don't, but not to pick and choose. I have been to many afternoon teas and this fell short in the way the tea service and trays were delivered. The tea was not brewed, nor did you get your own pot, but received your own tea bag of choice with a teapot of hot water to share. This is in itself not terrible, but the hot water was not kept warm with a warmer nor were we offered a fresh pot. The tray did not have an even amount of sandwiches/scones to share which I have never encountered. I did speak to the manager about it and we were offered more sandwiches, and that they would work on this for future events - kudos to them for that. The inside dining area was crazy loud and not at all a relaxing vibe for tea - but that's not the fault of Craft Tampa. Just something to consider if you are wondering in which area to dine. Overall, the actual cruise, views, and service made this "ok", but I would not recommend this to anyone who loves going to afternoon tea.

We decided to try the calamari, and while it was cooked well, the flavor fell a little flat--it could've used a touch more seasoning or sauce to really make it pop. That said, the happy hour deals made it worth a try, and the portion was fair. The Donkey Kick, a Kentucky mule featuring four roses bourbon, house-made ginger-mint syrup was very good drink for happy hour. Where Battery really shined was in the service. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome, attentive without being overbearing, and genuinely friendly. That alone kept the experience positive and left us open to trying more of the menu next time. Overall: A stylish Channelside spot that nails the service and happy hour atmosphere--just hoping for a bit more punch in the flavors on the plate.
