    Great location with a variety of brews and eats to choose from. Relax and have a cold one with a variety of taste.

    Three glasses of beer are arranged on a dark table inside a brewery, each on a round coaster with a leaf logo. The beers vary in color from light to dark. A chalkboard menu with handwritten text is visible in the background, indicating the brewery's name and offerings. The setting features wood-paneled walls, creating a casual, indoor atmosphere.

    This is one of my favorite places after a long week of work. The staff is very friendly and always helpful. Even though the place gets very crowded, they have many seats inside and outside, and they try to take the orders as fast they can. It can get a bit loud but is still a very good ambiance. I tried the G'boy, a very refreshing and tasty IPA. Also, I ordered the Cuban sandwich. It was delicious! The pork was well seasoned, and the bread was very crunchy. I love it!

    Excellent beer and amazing atmosphere. Try the Cheeky Blonde! The food is really great. They have a long list of hearty sandwiches and some salads too. The best part of Leaven is the staff they! They are the best around.

    Menu - The menu from Leaven Brewing in Riverview, FL, is printed on yellow paper and divided into sections for snacks, salads, and sandwiches. It includes items such as Big Ol' Bavarian Pretzel, Queso de Cerveza, the Caesar salad, and various sandwiches like the Turkey Bacon Ranch and Caprese. Each item has a brief description and price, with some options for customization or substitutions. The menu emphasizes that all prices are cash prices and is available for order at the bar.

    Clean, calm atmosphere. The food is delicious! I've never ordered something and not liked it. I ordered a Cheeky Blonde while I was waiting for an online order that did not get pushed through because I their iPad wasn't working so the beer was complimentary while I waited and I truly appreciated that. The staff is phenomenal, the food is delicious. Area is clean, restrooms are clean, I've only been here during the week, but they have advertised trivia nights that I will be checking back in on. Recommend!!

    Fantastic local beers and a friendly neighborhood feel! I spent an hour here with my laptop and a beer in the corner as the place slowly filled up with the dinner crowd. Families with kids. A few couples that looked like dates. And then the local "run" club arrived in their fluorescent tshirts and enthusiasm. I was able to find a beer I liked from the menu and the bartender provided the wifi password. A quiet corner (at least until the place filled up) and it was a very pleasant time. Next visit, I'll have to get something to eat as it all looked great. [Review 20278 overall - 1780 in Florida - 1255 of 2023.]

    This is a nice little brewery nestled in a shopping center, and luckily it's about 4 mins from my place (so we will be regulars!). There are games and a really nice selection of beers. I got the cheeky blonde, which I enjoyed and my boyfriend got a couple IPAs. We also got the pot roast Sammie (they ran out of the French dip) and it was very delicious! I was pleasantly surprised with how good the sandwich was! My only complaint is that I wish they had some nice homemade chips or something other than a bag of lays as the side. Overall, a nice experience!

    We came in the night of a storm and it was still busy. We ordered at the counter a flight, pretzel, 1/2 cuban and Capresse Sandwich. We started with the Cheeky and Taylor cheeky. The Cheeky was ok but the Taylor Cheeky was a bit too fruit flavored. The Sunny was also ok but we really liked the Red. We liked it so much we took 6 home:). The pretzel came out with our lunch so the cheese congealed a bit before we could finish it. The pretzel itself was good. The hall cuban was ok but not great. The Capresse sandwich was a surprise to find at a brewery but good. The seating area is not real big and can see how it might be crowded on the weekend. The tables were clean and the staff was nice. If we are in the area again would try a different sandwich as they were out of Turkey bacon, and one of the salads.

    Meatball starter - A small white cup holds meatballs covered with melted cheese and tomato sauce, situated on a gray textured table. In the background, there is a glass of beverage on a coaster, partially visible. The setting appears to be a casual dining or bar environment.

    The vibe is great. The service is wonderful, the beer was fantastic and the food was solid! Great spot to get your brew on!!

    Nice place to stop for a cold one and maybe a snack. They have a variety of sandwiches and appetizers on their menu. I tried their Kolsch. It was light and refreshing. I enjoyed the atmosphere. It was laid back and friendly. It almost had a coffee shop feel as I noticed folks at tables with books and laptops. I'd like to return to try some other beers on tap.

    Sour beer - A tulip-shaped beer glass filled with amber-colored beer is placed on a yellow coaster on a dark wooden table. The beer has a clear appearance with a slight foam head. In the background, there is a tall glass of dark beverage, possibly soda or stout, on a coaster. The setting appears to be a bar or restaurant with a casual atmosphere.

    The service was excellent, and the beer was enjoyable! However, the food was merely average, although it wouldn't deter me from returning.

I ordered the Tony Piccante, and my husband got something similar to an Italian sub ( can't remember the name). Both sandwiches were packed with flavor and made with really fresh ingredients. The portions are no joke either..you're definitely getting your money's worth. Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and satisfying without feeling heavy. I was full eating half. Perfect quick stop if you want something filling and flavorful.

    Stopped by Cousin Vinny's on Sunday around 2pm. Wow they were absolutely PACKED inside. We couldn't…read moretell who had ordered versus who was waiting for their order based on how crowded it was. After a bit, we realized everyone had ordered already and we stepped up to the cash register. I ordered the PROSCIUTTO DI PAPO and my boyfriend ordered the THEE PARMESAN DON. We stood awkwardly in the way of the trash can for a while as there was zero space in the place to go to truly be out of the way of people. After about 20 minutes of standing there, a table cleared up and we very quickly rushed over to grab a seat. The cashier came out and cleaned another table but did not bother to clean ours. It seemed as though she was only willing to clean empty table. After about 40 minutes, our food was ready. It was insane to see how many orders were on their screen as the whole kitchen is visible from inside the place. The sandwiches were good, but I would absolutely recommend ordering ahead so that you don't get stuck standing there forever waiting. I also don't necessarily think the sandwiches were as good as expected. Especially for how long we had to wait.

    We always make it a point to stop by Frankie's Italian Deli when we're in Tampa. Great desserts,…read moresandwiches and pizza. Last night, we tried some Sicilian and white chicken pizza. It all hit. I've never had anything bad here. Later, my in-laws had some desserts at their home. Their cannoli and Napoleon cake is stellar. The staff is great. We went towards close, there was still a crowd waiting for their orders and everyone was still pleasant and proud of what they were producing for the customers. Inside is clean, everything on display and Frankie's consistently executes on everything they do. If you're in the Tampa/Brandon area, you need to try this place. You'll be glad you did.

    My coworker sent me a TikTok on this place and wanted to know my review. I had never been before…read moreso here is my review. I came here on a Tuesday at 1:36pm. It was freaking packed. Like a line all the way to the door where you walk in at. On the left there are a ton of pastries. i'd love to come back and try pastries, but on this day, I didn't try any. Up first, I had the $11.99 homemade meatballs. Absolutely on point, and perfect meatballs. I really enjoyed them. For my main entree though, I got a Rebuen sandwich, or otherwise known as a Five Points Gang for $21.99. Oooooof, I really wanted to like the Reuben. I've never said this before about a Reuben sandwich, but frankly it had too much meat. It was weird because it was swallowing a handful of pastrami and nothing else. You couldn't taste any of the dressing, sauerkraut, or the bread because your mouth is full of just pastrami. I love Reuben sandwiches, and this one just isn't it. I hope to come back and give a review of a different sandwich and pastries. I feel like there's potential here, and maybe I just had a wrong item. Whereas the meatball was legit delicious.
