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! read more

Went here for dinner. The place was empty. Also, it's a little dark inside. Service was a little slow. And it took time for them to return. Food was okay/good. Can't say I would return. read more

I was here for lunch & there was only 1 server working. The service was extra slow. There were not many tables with customers yet the server seemed flustered & not efficient. I ordered the boneless wings & the chicken was thick white meat, however, it was heavily coated with lemon pepper seasoning. It was too salty I couldn't eat it. I tried to shake off the seasoning & it was still extremely salty. Side of tater tots was $7 & were overly cooked very crispy outside in... the worse kind. Took forever to get the check. Overall, horrible experience. read more

This bar is a super cool and popular bar in the Channelside area, especially during sports season and lightning games, but the trivia nights are cool too.They also have the best wings and Smashburger. The staff is really friendly and I'm a regular here since I live in the area. read more

7/10. Tavern Burger and tots - high quality bacon - patty was perfectly cooked - yummy caramelized onions - large portions! - kind staff BUT - burger was too wet. It made the bread hella soggy - It was $4 extra for tots instead of fries, which is lowkey outrageous - took a long time for the food to come out read more

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 read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

Food was reasonably priced and very good portions. Our waitress, Hannah, was very friendly and took care of our six-top very well. Very chill atmosphere. The whole family left full and happy. Didn't get drinks, but they looked delicious. Highly recommend District Tavern. Don't usually write reviews, but if you're in the area and looking for something to eat- this is the place. read more

I came here with some friends on a Wednesday for trivia + dinner! The place is a lot bigger than it appears so it was easy to find some seating close to the host. Our server was awesome, being super attentive and checking in on us. We ordered a couple beers and then my boyfriend and I split an order of loaded fries and the grilled chicken tender wrap. I also got a side of buffalo sauce to dip my fries and wrap. The food came out fairly quickly. The loaded fries were pretty good and I really enjoyed my wrap! The buffalo sauce had a good amount of tang and the chicken was perfectly tender. Trivia ran a little long (5 rounds ending at 9:30 was a liiitle late for my liking), but overall had a great time and can't wait to return! read more

Friday night chronicles! We came here to order food after the SZA concert and it wasn't busy at all. Bar had a few seats and the service was pretty slow. We ordered around 11:45 PM because the kitchen closes at 1 AM and our food didn't come out until 12:40ish. I checked on it to see what's going on and magic 2 seconds later our food was out. The place was pretty clean and the playlist was great but all in all, the food was basic bar food. The burger and fries were okay and the mozzarella balls were just okay. 7/10 read more

The staff was EXTREMELY rude. I kindly asked if it was possible to have a ufc fight put on a tv, resulting in the the bouncer telling me to leave, with the bartender saying she had a "long day". The people here are extremely rude and emotional and take their day out on you. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!! read more

We stopped by for some cocktails before a concert. Nice bar, well lit, decorated, big bar rail and natural lightning. Prices are conservative, bartenders were kind and conversational. Cocktails were just OK. I love to try new concoctions but the That'll Do Pig was not my jam. Bacon tequila tasted like bacon grease for me + agave + Hawaiian Black Sea salt - too overpowering. The espresso martini was tasty but basic - vodka & a premade espresso mix. Draft list was pretty diverse and fully stocked bar. Probably wouldn't be top of my list to go again. read more

We were in town for the Stevie Nicks concert and stopped in for dinner and cocktails before we headed to the venue. Service was very slow. Our server was non existent and very difficult to track down. 3 of the 4 meals we ordered were ok. The 4th was inedible (hamburger with a rancid smell). We let the server know and she removed it from the bill, which we appreciated! The manager stopped over and apologized and left. Once the bill was paid and we were getting ready to leave the manager came back and called one of us a derogatory name and told us to leave. She was very angry because of the complaint and embarrassed us by kicking us out. Never treated so poorly after such bad service and a nasty hamburger! read more

I came in for lunch on a Wednesday and the place was pretty empty. It's nice, clean, and modern. I'm not certain if it was because the place was empty but the service was great and the food came out quickly. I ordered the Southwest Bowl with Blackened Chicken (4/5). It was very filling and quite good, if a bit pricey. A nice modern lunch spot with tasty healthy options! read more

Went here for a quick lunch with my sisters and I was extremely disappointed. Walked in and stood for about 5 mins when I realized no hostess was coming, my sister asked the woman at the bar who says "go ahead and sit anywhere." Alrighty. We sit down for about 6 mins and no server in sight and my sisters are saying to just give it a few more minutes and eventually our server does come out. He comes over throws a napkin in front of everyone and says "drinks?" Deep sigh. I ask what's your name, he responds "Drew". We put our order in and it doesn't take long, the fried mozzarella balls were good. The Brussel sprouts were good, and the flatbread tasted like frozen pizza. The food was okay but it was the experience that left a sour taste. Two words, never again. read more

What a good find!! It's tucked away right near a dog park that I always pass on my walks but had never been in before. I came here on Friday night with a bunch of my friends and had a great time! The atmosphere is so lively and fun and service was great! Only critique was that the food took over 35 min to come out. I got the grilled bird sandwich which was grilled chicken with goat cheese tomato and arugula (so yummy that I ate most of it before taking a pic!) Fries hit the spot. Definitely coming back to watch Lightening games and for their great happy hour. read more

After driving around aimlessly looking for food options, my friends and I stumbled upon the District Tavern. It was right in the middle of a college town and you could definitely tell who they were catering to when you walked in. The place was dimly lit and has super loud music on, but at least it was good music! The service was quick and we got our orders in fast. The food came out pretty quickly too and the portion were massive, and delicious! The Buffalo cauliflower was extremely spicy so unfortunately I didn't get to enjoy that, but everything else was super good! I'd go again if I was in town! read more

This place is infested with flies and fruit nats!!! It has been for a long time now and everyone knows it. Even the bartender said so himself. This place has great potential but severely needs a Blue light bug lamp at a bare minimum. Change in management is probably needed here. Unfortunate cause ambiance is amazing . I write this with all due respect and hope of change here. Cheers read more

I recently visited District Tavern with a co-worker for lunch and had a nice visit. We started with the Buffalo Cauliflower as an appetizer. The cauliflower was tender, covered in a crisp breading and marinated in a lightly spicy buffalo sauce. For my entrée I had the Black and Blue Burger. The nicely medium-rare burger was covered in flavorful seasoning, topped with crisp onions and tangy blue cheese and sandwiched between soft brioche buns. Overall, District Tavern was a quality lunch stop. read more

We're visiting my bf's sister for her son's graduation and wanted a night on the town. We found this place by chance just by driving around the area we were in. It had good ratings so I thought we'd give it a try. The waiter took a minute to come greet us, but he got our drinks in a timely manner. The food was pretty good even though we just got appetizers. I ordered the sweet potato fries and they were delicious. My sister in law ordered Buffalo cauliflower and it was amazing. I usually don't like cauliflower but that was definitely something I can enjoy. It wasn't too crowded which was nice, so we were able to get a table quickly and enjoy our time there. They also stay open until about 3 am I believe so it gives us enough time to eat, drink, and just vibe. read more
