We had a corporate dinner at M. Bird's rooftop, and it was a fantastic experience. The atmosphere was great, with a refreshing breeze, plenty of shade, and beautiful views of the city. We started the evening with drinks and appetizers. There was a nice variety of cocktails, and we especially enjoyed the jerk chicken egg rolls. They were served with a side of fresh pineapple, which was a delicious and unexpected touch. For my entrée, I ordered the jerk chicken tacos, while others in our group had the steak frites and the mac and cheese. Everyone really enjoyed their meals, and the food was well prepared. Even as the restaurant became busier throughout the evening, the staff remained attentive and provided excellent service. Overall, M. Bird was a great choice for our corporate dinner, and I'd happily return for both the food and the rooftop atmosphere. read more

We found this spot last night after wandering around the Armature Works. It was only around 8pm, but the spot was already pretty packed. We got a spot by the bar (otherwise the wait for a table was bordering on 2 hours, so we opted to try at the bar. People were mostly ordering drinks and not sitting down, so we were able to secure some spots rather quickly. It seemed like most people were out enjoying the music or the views. The bar was pretty busy (understandable for a Friday night) and we had to just hang out at the bar and hope for some chairs/spots to open up. Luckily, they did and we were able to order some drinks and eat some food. We opted for a couple of Carajillos and a Paloma. Honestly service was great and each cocktail tasted and looked good. For the food, we opted for some shared bites--shrimp cocktail (about 3 seasoned shrimps and a small dipping sauce), chips and salsa, 3 smaller lobster rolls, and a burger with fries. It was pretty quick/short turnaround time for the items to be ordered and then brought out to us. The presentation for each item was amazing and tasted as good as it looked. Although the shrimp cocktail was only 3 piece of shrimp, they were huge shrimp and full of flavor, skewered with a lime. The lobster rolls were so good. Small sliders packed with tons of meat. Good portion of filling to bread. The burger and fries were honestly to die for. Perfect amount of salt and a true medium for the cooked temperature. I think the only gripe I had was that the service was a bit on the slower side when it came to flagging down someone to take our order. Granted, it was packed in there. I just felt like they were serving everyone else before coming to our section to assist. I also got the lobster roll and the burger with fries to go (family was flying in that night and we didn't want them to starve. The to go food was pretty well packed. I would probably come here again, if given the chance. The views were amazing and I'm hoping that on a less busy night, the service would be a little more attentive. read more

The food and drinks are great! Can't go wrong with the rooftop river view over armature works. Be careful with the reservations though. We reserved an inside seating option but we're still sat outside due to limited seating. It ended up down pouring on us and they told us they had no more room due to reservations ... despite us initially requesting to sit inside. We had to wait for 35 minutes for another table to open up but I had to ask to be put back on the list they were perfectly content with just telling us they didn't have room for us despite not having paid for our food or drinks yet too. The crowd is mixed 21 year olds + 30-55 year olds depending on the night. read more

I loved my drinks here to move this up to a five. There is a pretty young and bro-y crowd on a Wednesday night after 10 p.m. I'm surprised how many people were here. We were able to get a table, but it was pretty busy. I loved my drinks and the views of Tampa are pretty nice. I got the silk and sage which is grey goose peach and rosemary, lemon, apricot liqueur, and sage simple. It was delicious! I would absolutely get it again. I also tried my friend's chai after dark, which is cazadores reposado, coffee liqueur, demerara, espresso, chai. This is like an espresso martini, but with a strong chai flavor. I actually prefer it to an espresso martini and definitely would get it again. I did try their espresso martini, which was pretty good, but I think the chai one is better (or at least more unique). There are so many other drinks on the menu I'd like to try. If you're at Armature works, you should check this place out. read more

Came here on a Friday night to meet up with some friends and the place was packed! It was an interesting mix of people and by this I mean all ages from young to old, but many leaning towards the older side. Lots of people making out (of all ages). The drinks took a while to be made but it was a busy night, they are all closer to $20. They had a live DJ who was okay. If you need to use the bathroom, it's probably best to just hold it because the line was atrocious. Overall, I think this place wasn't my cup of tea but I do think this could be a vibe during the day. I'll have to try it out another time, I did come in October so many people were dressed up. read more

The vibes at M Bird are fantastic. I had a great time here, and the food was definitely a highlight. I tried the steak frites and the quesadilla, and both were yummy. The steak was cooked perfectly, and the fries were crispy and flavorful. The quesadilla had the right balance of textures and flavors. Overall, it's a great spot for both the atmosphere and the food. read more

I've always heard of Armature Works but never went to see what was offered. But i decided to randomly go with friends and i can't believe i waited so long to come here. The view of the city was amazing right along with the amazing food. We had steak frite and m burger. I had medium rare steak and it was cooked perfectly along with Parmesan truffle fries and a well seasoned salad. We all had drinks that were good. I had the Saturn but it tasted like juice and no alcohol. But it was still pretty good. The waiter was attentive and nice. I'd definitely come back. read more

There is a minimum when you reserve a space like this with a large group! Came here for a networking event and the service was absolutely incredible. Wonderful views of the river and the lawn. Our server was so sweet and helpful and we were such a large party. She was fantastic. Her name started with A and she had medium brown hair! The thugshot turned into a cocktail was my favorite drink and my favorite meal on the menu was the steak and chimichurri sauce. The minimum was either 50 or 55 per head, which isnt so bad with all things considered: great drinks, food, service, and views. read more

M.Bird Rooftop Restaurant & Lounge - Silk & Sage See you at dusk - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Tampa, Florida

We'd been to M Bird a few years back when they first opened, and were excited to give it another try! We sat at the bar and the bartender took our drink order right away. We enjoyed our drinks and the view of downtown. Unfortunately food took 30+ mins to arrive and one of the items was incorrect due to a miscommunication between myself and the server. They promised to correct things but after 20 more minutes and no food, we cancelled our order all together. I'd recommend grabbing something to eat downstairs at armature and heading here for drinks afterward. read more

Chris at Mbird is hands down one of the best bartenders I've come across. He brings such a fun, energetic vibe that instantly makes the whole experience better, whether you're just stopping by for one drink or staying for the night. On top of that, his cocktails are seriously amazing ! You can tell he knows exactly what he's doing and actually cares about what he's making. If you're at Mbird, definitely go see Chris! He is my reason to smile on a saturday night ! read more

Spacious rooftop bar located at armature works. Beautiful views of Tampa Bay. We ordered some cocktails and THE GRAZING BOARD (artichoke & crab dip. hummus. smashed avocado. layered dip of pico de gallo, queso & black bean. pita. adobo tortilla chips. vegetable crudite). There was a DJ and the music was not too loud. We could talk and hear each other while still enjoying the music. Great vibes! read more

Such a fun and vibrant rooftop in Tampa!! Come earlier in the day to enjoy sunshine and refreshing drinks, at sundown to see the beautiful sunset along the skyline, or at night for a popping vibe with a dj and dancing. It definitely gets packed at night, so don't be surprised by the crowd which definitely skews younger. I've visited this spot mainly for drinks and it's always a great time. I enjoy coming during the afternoon to catch a seat along the edge and people watch at Armature, and at nighttime it's a fun party spot. Definitely on the pricier side but drinks are always quality. read more

The servers were quick, friendly and very informative about their menu. The food and drinks did not disappoint either! If you are in the area, I would definitely check it. They were also located on top of what appeared to be like a mall/food court/ market area which was fun to explore afterwards. read more

We had a reservation at 3:30 in the afternoon. We were greeted by the hosts and let them know we had a reservation. Where they planned on sitting us under an umbrella outside was being occupied by someone that just sat themselves there. The only place to put us was directly in the sun since other guest kept getting drinks from the bar and seating themselves. So apparently you don't need to speak to the host you're better off seating yourself to get the shade. The bathrooms were horrendous with no toilet paper in any stalls and trash all over the floor. It wasn't busy enough to justify this lack of care for the restrooms. Honestly seems like they are going for a club vibe then a nice bar to grab an overpriced drink and a bite to eat. read more

M.Bird Rooftop Restaurant & Lounge - Dirty disgusting bathroom in the middle of the afternoon... no reason for this. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Horrendous parking situation. Slow service. Nice view. I called and asked for a reservation for Saturday, Dec 23 at 5:15pm. I received the confirmation email and text. When we arrived the hostess said they don't take Saturday reservations... after speaking with her for a couple minutes she was able to put us at a couch outside with a view of the water. The holiday boat parade was going on so we wanted to have a view of that. Waited about 10 minutes for a server to come and and tell us she would go get waters while we decided. Another 10 minutes to actually get the water so we made sure we knew what to order for when she came with the waters. Ordered the chips and dip and the other nacho app. The chips came out soon after. The other app did not arrive until after we were about done with our entrees so we sent it back and had them take it off the bill. I had the Mac n cheese. It was decent, pico had a little spice to it. Other people had the jerk tacos which arrived with warm plates but almost cold meat. Drinks were decent. View was nice. read more

My friend and I are visiting Tampa from SF and had many people recommend to us M Bird! We were excited for some rooftop bar vibes, but I will say it's not a very high rooftop! It's on like the 2nd or 3rd floor but it did have some nice views of the bay. We came on a Saturday and it was pretty packed, we were told Thursday's are their busiest days. The crowd seemed pretty young, I'm not even 30 but it just seemed like really young energy. For example the minute we walked in, someone threw up right in front of us and it got on our shoes. It wasn't even 11pm and a lot of the crowd was already turrrrnt. The DJ was great and the drinks were good! read more
