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.

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.

IKEA is still my go to for home decorations. I recently purchased a full length mirror and they did not disappointed! It is big just how I wanted it. I wasn't sure because I didn't check the measurements prior to ordering online. Looks perfect in my living room. See photo.

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.

Salad, chicken tendies, Mac & cheese

"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!

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.

Is it bad I go to IKEA to walk around more then buy stuff? 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 just fun to me to walk around and see everything. Then I grab a snack at the food court and leave. 01.03.2025

Swedish meatballs with mac n cheese and mashed potatoes with lingonberry jam. Also with chocolate cake on the side.
Kasey M.

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.

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.

No one being served. Everyone waiting. Terrible service to return an item at IKEA!
Barbara B.

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.

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.

Ask the Community - IKEA

Is this ikea location open on MLK day?

I would think so but call the store to be sure.

Does this ikea have self checkout?

They do not.

What is the phone number for the IKEA store in Tampa? All I can find is an 888 number and when you call it, the recording tells you that due to inclement weather they are closed.?

When I looked it up I got 813-623-5454

I would have only had days to consign with them in my back-to-back closings/move and had to leave behind a $12K dining set from Lester Gourley (sp?)

The first two had to be left behind for the buyers and my son gave the couch away. The items at the Room Exchange are high end at an affordable price. I have sold a few small things since then and will be loyal to their professional services in the future. I am updating my review because of a NextDoor email requesting recommendations. The Room Exchange is the best recommendation I could make.

I was expecting a smaller strip mall store, but this was so expansive and allowed them to have a large selection of seating and tables for sale. They have the three tiered, time pricing that I noticed at Déjà Vu when I was there the other day also. This would definitely be worth visiting regularly to not only look for new items but to see if items you're interested in have dropped in price. Also was really impressed by the bathrooms, which were spacious and looked remodeled.

I found this place when we were moving into our new home and we needed a new couch. I needed a true…read morecorner sectional and looked everywhere and could not find what I was looking for. The Furniture Guys had EXACTLY what I wanted and the price was right. We purchased the sofa and are very, very happy with it. 6 months later and we need a new mattress and as we all know MATTRESS SHOPPING SUCKS! I made the typical rounds with the well known major bed retailers. I had two sales people literally follow me out of the store and I thought one guy was going to break out in tears when I left. It was awful. We found a memory foam with gel mattress at the Furniture Guys that we liked earlier in the day. We found others that we liked as well, however the price was usually more than double of what we liked at the Furniture Guys place. We went back, tired and hungry after making the rounds and tried the bed out again and decided to take it. This was on a Saturday afternoon and they said they could deliver it that day! I wasn't expecting anything before Monday so that was a bonus. The delivery guy didn't show up until 7:00pm that night but they did get the bed there. Sunday morning I wake up at 4:00am in back pain agony. I was convinced that I could not sleep on that bed and went back to the store to find out what my options would be. The receipt he gave me the day before was for someone else, so we got that switched out. George was very patient with me and listened to my concerns. He explained that going from a coil bed to memory foam will take some adjustment and the mattress will become less firm with use. He suggested that we give it a little time and if we were still unhappy he would make it right. I took him at his word and lo and behold slept like a baby the second night! However, in looking at my receipt after we got home, I noticed that I was overcharged by $53.00. I called George and he issued a credit right over the phone. I do believe it was just an honest mistake and he was quick to fix it. I totally recommend this place and I will return in the future for sure. Love the couch and the mattress. His prices are crazy good too!

So glad I came here first on my hunt for a mattress. Nate was friendly and super helpful and I got…read moreeverything I needed for a great price. Got it delivered a couple later, Nate delivered and set it up as well.

Beautiful pieces at reasonable prices…read more This is not a Goodwill, so don't expect the pieces to be cheap. What's funny is we were just at Goodwill so I saw a glass jar that was similar to one I found at Goodwill, it was $8 at Goodwill and $34 there. However, that was the only piece I found at Goodwill, whereas here there were so many beautiful pieces. You really can't compare the two, so I'll stop here, but I just wanted to make that clear. I've been into helping the environment recently, so I want to buy secondhand pieces when I can. We were looking for a vase. I ended up finding a gorgeous shell shaped vase. They actually had two, but one had a crack on one side, which is why it was discounted by $50. I decided to go for the non cracked one, which was $140. I think this is reasonable for the quality and it's a statement piece. I saw tons of other items that I loved. There was a standing desk for around $350 and a lot of benches and tables all in the couple of hundred dollar range. Again, not cheap, but definitely less expensive than they probably were when they were new. The guy working there was really nice and helpful. Parking was easy on both sides of the building. They pack this place full of such beautiful finds. I will definitely be back.

Established eleven years ago, this shoppe is open 10 AM to 5 PM Monday thru Saturday, & 11 AM to 5…read morePM on Sundays. There are multiple vendors in this two-building antique store. Oh Whatever's mantra is "Unique & Eclectic Furniture, Decor & Illuminations." Hands down a HIGH QUALITY antique & vintage store (especially if mid-century furniture & decor is what interests you). The two mid-century booths belong to a woman w/ IMPECCABLE taste & an eye for quality mid-century! (She also is in business as a Home Stager, if you're interested.) My good friend was able to purchase a gorgeous framed mid-century painting from her, as well as two framed paintings by a well-known artist. I walked out with matching & stunning black & gold mid-century glass lamps ($295 before a discount); a George's Briard 22K gold glass dish ($38-- to match a drinking glass set I already own); & a 1940's wooden movable pin ($40)-- definitely not common. Should you want more information on what mid-century furniture & home decor merchandise is currently available here, phone the shop & ask to speak w/ JAN. (You may contact me for her email address, if that helps.) The shoppe is filled with all genres of antiques. I didn't see one piece that was not in PRISTINE CONDITION. Just a PHENOMENAL vintage store. My browsing partner is a former antique dealer. Together we have shopped the state almost monthly over the past 6+ years. When he loves an antique store, I know I'm correct in saying that it is one of the better ones you'll find. L00K @ the photos I posted-- such a GORGEOUS shoppe! Here you'll find paintings, metal art, & other wall decor; lots of furniture (NOT primitives, though); lamps & hanging light fixtures; costume jewelry & scarves; beer taps; cigar boxes; & SO much more! Do not come here expecting vintage trinkets & odds & ends. Do not come here thinking you'll get a steal on an antique or vintage item. These dealers know their merchandise & they know the market. But DO request a discount, but only only if you spend $100+ on any one item. (For example, I spent much more on a total of 3 items, but the one dealer gave me the discount on only the $100+ priced item.) There are NO RETURNS, so check the merchandise carefully before leaving. Should you need a home interior painter or someone to paint furniture, etc, speak with the shoppe's manager; it's a service offered here. Should you have merchandise you'd like to sell, phone the shoppe to discuss it w/ whomever is manning the counter @ the time. We'll definitely be back! It's too GREAT of a vintage shoppe not to drop in periodically to see what EXCEPTIONAL finds lie within its walls:)

I noticed a number of Restoration Hardware looking pieces on Craigslist from the same source but…read morecouldn't figure out if it was a store or individual selling them. I got the address from the Craigslist ad and decided to swing by one morning after my obligatory visit to Pinch a Penny to keep my pool sparkling blue so the kids don't complain. When I pulled up James was just opening his shop [pre-Grand Opening] so I was able to visit with him for a few minutes to understand his vision. I'll explain it like this...custom Restoration Hardware inspired furniture at a better price using better materials. Let's say you want a dining room table... 1.) You pick the style [table & legs] 2.) You pick the wood [reclaimed barnwood, oak, cherry, hickory, walnut, whatever you want] 3.) You choose the finish Need it a little longer, a little shorter, little higher, little lower...it's custom...he will make it to your specifications. James is a craftsman...his work is beautiful with excellent attention to detail. I was motivated to write this review because here's a guy who after retiring from the military has decided to chase his dream and create a business from his passion of custom woodworking.

The owner James, agreed to pay me $75 an hour to install one of his over priced barn doors…read more He said it would only take three or four hours, it took 11 hours and though I recommended adding a header because there were no studs he hung a heavy barn door, bolted four times into drywall, and only three times into header studs. He then only paid me for three hours of work. I was outraged by this and he said the agreement was for three hours and I said well it wasn't three hours it was 11 hours. This piece of garbage doesn't pay what he owes. He agreed on text message later that he owed me an additional $520 but tells me that I have to take him to court because I hurt his feelings. I have it on record that he acknowledges that he owes me the full amount and this jerk has the audacity to tell me he's going to wait to pay me for it to process through court. Do not do business with this man. He doesn't install the work the correct way and he cuts corners. And then he wanted to demand my insurance and say that I am 100% responsible for the door install when I told him the correct way to do it, and all he did was dictate how he wanted it done and get in the way and slow down the door install process , he doesn't know how to use a tape measure and he measured it incorrectly so many times I had to redo everything he was trying to do. It would've taken half the time had I done this by myself, including opening up the drywall and adding additional studs for the barn door to mount to. This guy does terrible work and then he is a hostile liar. Manipulator. Trying to pay me $50 an hour instead of 75, and then coming up with nonsense babble about wanting to meet me in person just to waste my time and try to pay me less than what he owes.
