Love IKEA! It does get hectic on weekends and lines to checkout can be extremely long but I love the variety of stuff this place has. The prices are very fair. Some items are more "cheap" quality than others but overall, decent. I love the showrooms and being able to touch and experience what it actually feels like to be in that room. My son loved the kids section. He had fun running around and exploring the different rooms and playing with the display toys. read more

The kitchen designer got the order completely wrong. I ordered this kitchen in the store and trusted that the sales rep was ordering what I told him my need was. I drove 100+ miles and picked up my kitchen. After spending a few hours assembling the cabinets I realized that the cabinets were not the right size. 30" vs the 36" I had indicated that I needed. I was Not happy but decided to just deal with it and use what I was sold. When I went to install the cabinets on the wall I realized that the over the refrigerator cabinet was 24" deep instead of the 14" that I had requested to match the depth of the rest of the cabinets. This was a deal breaker for me as this cabinet door would not open due to it hitting the refrigerator hinges. I called customer service and spoke with someone that I could barely understand and explained the situation. When I was done explaining, the line was disconnected!!!. I started over and spoke to another person that was hard to understand with a dog barking in the background. This person set me up with an online appointment to resolve the problem. Six hours later I had the online appointment where the nice person that I could understand explained to me that they only designed kitchens and had no authority to resolve the situation. He then gave me a phone number to call to resolve the situation which was the same number that I had originally called. I called again and the individual I spoke to didnt seem to have enough knowledge about their product to help me. At this point I asked to return the cabinets. Ikea will pick up the cabinets in 9 DAYS. Then 5-6 business days later I will be refunded the money. So now I have to wait two more weeks to be able to reorder cabinets elsewhere because my money is tied up by this fiasco! read more

IKEA is one of those stores that people either love or hate. I fall into the camp of it's just meh. Its major benefit used to be that it was cheaper than most of its competitors. Now it's almost the same price or even higher in some categories, so what's the point? The store is well organized and signposted so you can navigate around. They have a clean cafeteria with many options and friendly staff. They have a wide selection at this location (everything from closet systems to soft furnishings and more) and a large parking lot. read more

I ADORE Ikea - I first went to an IKEA in the Philadelphia area in the early '80s - I still have some items I bought in that era - I've moved across country many times and still have a few bookcases and other stuff... I installed 4 IKEA kitchens and I'm very good at working with the store and getting it right - 4 SUPURB kitchens. I got 2 sets of bath towels that I absolutely LOVE....I only wish they didn't change so fast and run out of stuff I love. the Tampa store is great, I got a 2008. 2018 and 20124 kitchen outfitted there - all great! I love working with the kitchen planners..... read more

My first IKEA review needs an update. I still like IKEA when I need to take a long walk inside to avoid the Florida Weather elements, & browse a bit. We came this time because they give you a $10 gift card during your bday month. I really wanted to get some snack items but unfortunately, that was not included. After walking around for some time, we decided to sit in the cafeteria. They have really decked up nicely and there are some nice couch sets up to sit as well as tables and chairs. My husband ordered the meatballs and sides. Now it's 9.99 but it was 40 percent off so it was like $6 such a great deal they couldn't be beat. He also picked out a cake that was less than $2, but my coupon also included a free slice of cake with a purchased entree. So it wasn't too bad of a visit. read more

IKEA is always a vibe for me. This one has an exceptionally friendly staff. I was looking for a piece that was discontinued, and while I couldn't get a replacement the team member identified a similar bookcase and helped me find it on the floor. Fantastic experience. The furniture is particle board so that is what it is, but when you need cheap and functional you can't beat it! read more

The best furniture store ever! I love how useful and how easy everything is. The quality is unbeatable and the prices are affordable! I love how the products are stackable when purchased so you're not hauling misplace and big boxes. IKEA is my go to place for furniture forever. Only con is their curbside pickup doesn't work most days so if you're in a hurry and choose that option, you might drive there disappointed and needing to go into the store instead. Check-in process for that can be a lot faster but it is what it is. I still love IKEA though! read more

My cousin and I had a free day and decided to stop by IKEA and walk around. We had a great time walking around and acting out different scenarios in the staged rooms they have on display. We decided to share a plate from the restaurant for lunch. The employees were nice and kept their customer service throughout the rush hour. They had a couple of meals to choose from and ultimately decided the basic chicken tender and fry meal looked the most edible. We got two drinks, an apple desert cake, 2 chicken tenders and fries, and a side of the Swedish meatballs all for under $20! That's not bad! Everything was as expected not bad but also not something I'd be craving anytime soon. It did the job and it was an interesting experience, as we have never eaten at the restaurant before. If you're in IKEA and want a quick lunch I would for sure recommend. read more

I had the most fantastic experience shopping at IKEA of Tampa. The best part was when I was checking out. I had purchased numerous things (furniture), and the check out was difícil due to the amount of boxes and that they only have self-check-out. Emma went beyond the call of duty and helped me. She was exceptional helpful and kind! read more

"I brake for Swedish meatballs!" I used to have a bumper sticker that read that hehe Went for the food, stayed for the furniture browsing~ Really enjoyed our meal..lots of nutritious options for an affordable price. The salads, sides, desserts, proteins - all up to you! They have options for vegans and vegetarians. I usually get the salmon or OG meatballs but instead went with the breaded lemon cod. Their sides are pretty standard with their starches and veggies but flavorful. I liked the potato salad for the salad with the smoked salmon. Checkout is quick plus they offer hot tea and coffee! I usually don't drink soda but their fountain drinks are hella unique! They have sparkling lemon lime, pear, lingonberry. Kid friendly plus there's a play area opened certain time of the day for kids to play in while the adults shop! read more

3rd visit to IKEA, first time eating there. I ordered the Swedish meatballs meal. They did have about 5 other entree options. They have a selection of desserts and salads that are available. The meal included mashed potato's and peas and loganberry sauce (I think). I'm glad I tried it, I wouldn't go there again to eat but I think it's part of the experience of ikea. $8.99 meal, not bad. read more

Not that there is anything negative about their inventory or product, my child's loft bed is from here and is still holding strong after 7 years.

It is cafeteria style where you grab what you want but for the main dish and hot sides you tell the staff what you want and they scoop it for you then you keep working your way down to the cashier. All the staff were friendly. The tables and drink areas were kept clean and there was plenty of seating even on a saturday afternoon. Food was cheap enough and tasty. read more

We came back to IKEA because I had a birthday coupon that I wanted use. We got their super early in the morning not really having a plan on what to buy but we noticed when we got upstairs that IKEA actually sells breakfast from 10 to 11am which is pretty shocking because I never knew that they had croissants, cinnamon rolls full breakfast like eggs and Potatoes and bacon, I thought was pretty interesting. The food was overall good not bad for six bucks. read more

It took me about 10 minutes to buy two chairs and a stool, which I bought "just in case" for a stage set. The line to return them is 20-25 minutes! And there is NO ONE at the counter, and the waiting area is FULL! Think DMV, only worse because your expectations are so much higher. I guess IKEA needs this elaborate return system to manage the extremely high number of returns of its products, many of which are high style junk! This, and their ridiculous shopping carts, are why I really dislike IKEA. read more

A day of inspiration walking the carefully crafted scenes in this warehouse. I'm pretty good at walking out empty handed on a regular basis, but not here! Sometimes I just need a lil something, candles, a fake plant, poultry scissors.... Whatever it is, they've got it! Sometimes at good prices, sometimes dealing with the DollarTree version makes more sense, but in any case it's the color schemes and inspiration, not to mention watching the drooling masses ravenously line up to eat at this feeding trough that invigorate my mind every time! read more

My go to when Door Dash sends me this way. Get to pick healthy meal and sit. They have to go boxes just no bags. I keep forgetting to bring my bento box. I have noticed that alot of locals come here to just dine in lol where else can you go n get high quality meal for the buck? Free refills included. Their pastry game downstairs is legit also. Love the little market downstairs. Nice Swiss meals n snacks in the coolers. We live the meatballs they sell in the freezers, they got them upstairs too. read more

Similar to Temu without the outrageous shipping fee. I love IKEA, you can find so much stuff here. I always end up buying too much. What i didn't like was the service. They were no one there to help. When i did find someone, he made me go all around the store looking for this specific item. 17 mins later, i was done and i left with Tupperware (since it's so hard to find the lids), measuring bowls and cups, shower curtain and candles. Ooh, December 8th is their annual Christmas Julbord dinner aka ikea buffet $20. Not too shabby. read more

My friend said, "you don't want to buy furniture in Ikea," and I replied, "actually, I do!" Aesthetics -- both in fashion and home decor -- are important to me. I needed one large dresser, the size of which is hard to find. A good number of Ikea's pieces are modular and fit together. Ikea had just what I wanted in color and style. Three dressers made into one, were perfect, and not terribly hard to assemble. (To be fair, my husband's an engineer; he had an easier time than I would.) We bought an Ikea desk once before in the odd size we needed. This time we picked up one for my office -- narrow in depth (as I wanted) and longer than standard. If you don't want to deal with crowds at Ikea, shop on a weekday. Monday, the Tampa store wasn't busy. Staff was around when we needed them and pretty helpful. It's worth your while to sign up on line for the free Ikea family card, to reap a 5% discount. All in all, we paid less than if we shopped in a regular retail furniture store AND I found just what I was looking for. read more

IKEA is a shopping experience that's as dangerous on your wallet as a trip to Home Goods or Target - you can come in with a plan, but so much else will draw you in as well. I recently had run out of space on my bookshelf (the well-loved Billy style in the short three shelf size) and came in with a plan to simply get another one to stack beside it. However, books are back in style & showcasing them comes with far more options nowadays. There were stylized rooms as well as dedicated storage sections that I took my time browsing, and honestly almost came home with the Hemnes or the Vihals - both were solid choices, but my tried & true Billy was available in a larger 6 shelf, twice as wide size for just $69! I couldn't beat the price on that, and I already knew the durability was enough for my needs. Now besides the bookshelf that I came for, I also paid far too much attention to desk chairs, reading lights, the food, and the live plants. I needed none of that, and probably would've come home with all of it if I wasn't supervised shopping with a friend. I also appreciated the lack of employees pestering you. If you wanted help, there were plenty of self-serve stations to guide you, as well as plenty of design spaces with employees ready for those who wanted the extra assistance. But it was so nice to be able to just explore without having to tell 7 different people you "were just looking" or "all set, thanks". They've got dedicated loading spaces across the front to make it a quick and easy process after checking out, and even offer complimentary twine to help secure your purchases in/on your vehicle. How nifty?! read more

I had one "wish list" item. I wanted to see what bags they have. IKEA is unofficially my luggage and those blue bags are handy, especially when traveling. I didn't want to walk through the entire store. I entered through the register area and visited Home Goods. I got a few small rainbow pattern bags and new cloth bags. There was a bag on clearance for .49 cents. I don't like the self check out areas but that was mostly the choice. The employee helped me when needed. This location is near Ybor City. The parking lot was huge. read more

We visited IKEA Tampa to shop for home décor and kitchenware, and it's always an experience! If you go in the morning, you can grab breakfast starting at just $1.99 for bacon and eggs, or $2.49 if you add potatoes. With a free IKEA Family card, you can usually enjoy complimentary coffee, plus right now there's a special--50% off all entrées Monday through Friday. Sign up for the IKEA Family card and add your birthday for extra perks: they'll email you a $10 coupon good for any in-store purchase of $10 or more (excluding food items like take-home Swedish meatballs). You'll also get a coupon for a free soft-serve with the purchase of an adult entrée. Throughout the year, IKEA hosts fun in-store events like prize giveaways, bingo, and DIY workshops. Don't miss the discount center in the warehouse near checkout--you can score discontinued or slightly damaged items for much less than their original price. It's easy to make a day out of visiting. Wandering through the display rooms is great for inspiration, whether you're customizing a closet, planning a living room, or just browsing for ideas. My only disappointment? They no longer carry the whole-bean coffee I used to buy, grind, and enjoy at home--I'm hoping they bring it back soon. read more

The worst experience ever! We were told the new couch would be delivered on Saturday morning, February 8, and the delivery people would remove our old couch. The delivery was late and the driver would not take the old couch. He said another truck was supposed to come and pick it up. This is unlike any other company we have dealt with for furniture or appliance delivery. We were told the second truck would arrive between 2 and 4 pm; we were told between 4 and 6 pm; then we were told between 6 and 8 pm. We had concert tickets for 7:30 and, in the end, the truck never showed up. We spent over an hour on the phone being transferred back and forth between Ikea and the trucking company to no avail. They can't even give us a new pickup time, nor would they refund the charge we paid to have the old couch taken away without first "reviewing it" for 48 hours! To get the couch out of here by Sunday morning and make room for the new couch, we had to hire a private junk hauler to come on Sunday morning at our expense! I won't even try to get Ikea to reimburse us for that charge! NEVER AGAIN! BYE BYE, IKEA! read more

We always look forward to a trip into Tampa to visit IKEA. Not only are the products and furniture inexpensive, but the food counter downstairs (pretzels, pizza, ice cream) and the cafe upstairs are a brilliant forethought on IKEA's part... If you're going to send us through a literal maze of furniture, and made-up living rooms, bedrooms and kitchens, make sure we aren't "hangry" when we do it! We look forward to the Swedish meatball plate (choice between 8 and 16 meatballs), and sometimes my wife branches out for the salmon, like she did this time around -- but only because the digital menu showed "plant based meatballs" when she looked up at it, not realizing it would change and show the normal meatballs as well. The line staff are very friendly and helpful with suggestions, the food is really good, and the price is amazing -- and if you are a rewards member, whatever you spend in the cafe is deducted like a coupon off what you buy in the store (as long as it's $150 or more). Our one complaint this trip was that the fountain drinks weren't available, causing us to buy a couple bottles of Pepsi... a small headache, but we didn't get much explanation from the person at the register -- they were a bit overwhelmed and you could tell they didn't want to answer the same questions... IKEA should've had a sign somewhere along the line telling us we couldn't get the combo price, and that the fountain drinks were shut down. Regardless, we love IKEA and we will be back! read more

This place can be confusing if you've never been here before. When you first walk in, there are stairs to the showroom. It's an area that allows you to look around and see what items they have. Everything is all set up and styled so you are able to see what it would look like in your home or office. If you see something you like, make sure to look at the tag, take a picture of it so you can find it later in the self serve area. If you plan to buy it. A majority of the items can be found later in the self serve area. Imagine Home Depot or something that looks like a warehouse. Everything is labeled so you can easily find it later. Some of the items can be picked up in the show room but not a lot of the big furniture items that has to be put together. They have bags and carts you can use as you walk through the store. You would return the bag when you are ready to check out. When you are ready to check out you can buy a reusable bag for under a $1. *Make sure to join the ikea family so you can save 5% each visit. Just google "join ikea family." Please do it before checking out. Because it takes a little time.* IKEA has a restaurant as well. I haven't tried their food yet but I'm sure I will eventually. I love ikea and to be honest the prices aren't bad. They have something for everyone. It's even a great place to shop for your children for Christmas. read more

I went in and left...knew exactly what we needed literally in/out within 20mins. I cannot review the store on this trip since I already knew where the product was on the shelf. Used self check that was a breeze. Will say this the parking lot was pretty empty for a Saturday win for me! read more

As new homeowners in the area we were very excited to go to idea to buy small decorate items for our living room and bathroom. IKEA is pretty well laid out. The entrance reminded me of an airport, but the signage was very helpful and definitely kept things fairly organized, even though it was somewhat busy. They have a fairly wide selection for all things home and garden. The quality isn't exceptional, but you get what you pay for and their decorative merchandise always adds a nice touch to finished rooms, at a very reasonable prices. Self- checkout was a breeze. The bathrooms are very clean. We also tried some food from their bistro cafe (conveniently located next to self checkout). For $7 we left with a pretzel & mustard, a tiny hotdog, frozen yogurt and a water. Check out IKEA for decorative items or inexpensive furniture, which isn't the most durable, but does the job! read more

Great Furniture and even Better Prices. I would not been able to furnish my entire home without IKEA prices and quality.

Bought two beds, paid for delivery, and furniture assembly services in Tampa, FL. The delivery was incomplete, according to the assembly services, so it was impossible to put them together. Customer service is not helpful at all; it seems there is no interconnection between departments, and it is impossible to solve a problem. Maybe if you have excellent skills as a handyman, it may make sense to buy from them; otherwise, it is a disaster. Think twice before buying their products. read more
