    Food was great. Ambiance was tasteful and interesting without being in your face (if you're not a car person). Service was quick, attentive and as you'd expect to be taken care of of.

    The French fries were served hot but they were bland and there was no salt to add. They could literally not find any salt. Sad.

    Highly recommend the Craft dinner cruise for a special occasion or date night out…read more They have the seating assigned before your arrival as well as a special signed card for your arrival. The service was wonderful and food was excellent!!! I have been on other cruises where the food was just so/so as you were really paying for the cruise. Hands down, it caught me by surprise how good the food was along with great boat cruise too. Once they take your order they encourage the guest to get up and enjoy the view. Being a smaller boat, it was great as you never felt it was overcrowded. They have an open pay lot available for parking at the slip, but was around $40 per car the evening we went due to an event. They do offer discount parking in a nearby garage. Overall, great experience.

I have seen…read moreother reviews where people get special extras for celebrating their birthdays/anniversaries and other reviews where they weren't acknowledged - mine was in the unacknowledged category. 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 popped into Battery in Channelside for happy hour, and the vibes were definitely on point. The…read morespace has that polished-yet-cozy energy that makes it easy to settle in whether you're here for a quick drink or making a night of it. 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.

    Had brunch here with some girlfriends on a Saturday - brunch time in Hyde park, on the weekend,…read moredoes not bode well for parking - just a heads up for those who may be unfamiliar with the Hyde park area. There are a few parking garages, but even those are a pain because people park like idiots. The parking situation isn't On Swann's fault, but it's an annoying factor. We had reservations well in advance, so we didn't have to worry about a wait. It was reasonably busy for a Saturday at brunch time. The decor and overall ambiance was classy but comfortable, which is great imo. Our server was nice and checked on us a good amount of times. The wait time between ordering our food and it coming to the table felt a bit lengthier than I would typically expect, but the food was delicious so it's hard to even complain about that. I got the short rib hash and a croissant and both items were wonderful. The croissant was flaky and buttery, it comes with a honey dip and butter on the side, would def get again. The short rib hash was also a menu item I would order again - the eggs were cooked perfectly, and I'd say I'm a little picky with how runny my eggs are. These were runny, but not TOO runny. The potatoes had a nice crisp to the outside but nice and soft on the inside, the short rib was so tender, so juicy, it was just a very well rounded, great tasting hash. This was my first time visiting On Swann for brunch, I'll be back for sure, but maybe on a weekday instead of the weekend since it seems to get pretty crowded in the Hyde Park Village area!

    I came here for lunch and it was a great experience. On…read moreSwann offers interior and exterior sitting, just be careful of the no-see-ums, when sitting outside.

We ate there twice while in town and overall the food was really good. The burger was delicious, and everyone in my group enjoyed what they ordered. The biggest issue was staffing. The hotel knew there was a large conference happening at the convention center, yet during lunch there was only one server trying to cover both the bar and the restaurant. He was doing his best, but it was clearly too much for one person. The second day there was also a helper clearing plates, but there was a language barrier and it was difficult to communicate simple things like drink refills or asking for the check. The food and atmosphere were definitely solid, and with proper staffing this easily could have been a 5-star experience.

We started with the deviled eggs and the jalapeño cornbread skillet. Listen... that whipped honey butter deserves its own fan club. It never misses. Chef's I ordered the Chicken & Waffles with a Rosé All Day. The chicken was seasoned to perfection with a tiny amount of heat for someone to notice hmmm it's something here lol and the apple compote gave the waffles exactly what they needed without drowning them in syrup. The Rosé? Smooth, refreshing, and they definitely weren't stingy with the pour ‍. Hubby ordered the Pub Burger and already said he'd order it again. My aunt enjoyed the wings, and my mother-in-love cleaned up her pancakes. I graciously took her bacon, bc hey, she only wanted the pancakes... . It had a smoky flavor that was really good. The biggest surprise was how relaxed brunch was. We made a last-minute reservation, walked right in, enjoyed great conversation, phenomenal service, and never felt rushed. Food: Service: Ambiance: The Pearl continues to be one of my favorite brunch spots in Tampa. It's one of those places that's consistently good, and consistency is hard to beat.
