    First time at Brass Tap! We came for Trivia Night on a Thursday night. Buffalo Cauliflower - This was good, I wish the cauliflower pieces were bigger Brass Tap Classic Pizza - Fair size pizza, safe choice Tater Tots side - There was more tots that came in the side than I expected! Strawberry Coconut Mojito - This very yummy. Yes. I liked that the music wasn't too loud because they had the garage doors open and the music could go outside too. Definitely coming again for trivia night!

    I've been wanting to try this for a long time because I used to work very close by! So we decided to go on a Monday night! And it was actually very goo, the menu is huge, got so many options which is pretty nice, it was not too crowded, there was like 3 more people in te bar, they have a huge list of beer, I tried something that the bartender told me it was similar to blue moon, and I was great! We got some wings to share, they have like a wing basket that comes with a side of fries, it's a pretty good deal I asked them if the can do my fries loaded and they did, they were very good. We also shared the hot pepperoni pizza, which for me the crust was a little too thick but flavor was good. The place looks very easy going and give you those bar vibes to have a beer or two. As I said before it was not too crowded, but the bartender was like giving all the attention to an specific costumer so we had to really try to get her attention to get some service, that was the only thing that I did not like so much, but for the rest it was great. I'm coming back for sure.

    We have been here several times now so here is my review. Brass Tap is a chain and have several locations around Tampa. This location is close to our house and so we do stop in from time to time. They carry a great selection of local and national beers. They serve food and we have eaten here before but the beer is what brings us back. Erica served us today and was friendly and helped us make some great selections and soon we were enjoying some great beer. The ambiance is casual and inviting. We certainly will be back

    This is a great place to come and get good food and refreshing drinks. Their industrial vibe has plenty of seating inside and outside. We stopped in for a quick refreshment today. The bar tender, Erika, was very friendly and helpful. I got their beer of the month Angry Chair Full Circle Lager. It was lighter than I expected, but so refreshing. It was a great experience and we look forward to coming back soon!

    It seems that the post-COVID atmosphere at The Brass Tap has been a little rocky lately. Business appears to be better than ever with more and more people venturing out in public again. My last few visits have seen near capacity crowds with not enough servers available to meet the needs of the restaurant. As a result, service has been much slower than on previous visits. We've come to accept this. We went in for dinner again last night. Same old story. Find a seat and wait. No, we were not in a hurry, but waiting 15 minutes to get a drink order in at a beer establishment is inexcusable. Our server was new, and was quite nice, so I will cut her some slack, but there seemed to be no sense of urgency. At some point, our server went MIA, and our food was delivered by another server. My burger was cold to the touch and my guess is that it sat in the kitchen waiting for our server to bring it to us. Also, from the looks of things, it appears that longtime partner to the Brass Tap, Carrollwood Brewing has moved out. The brewing equipment, which has long been a focal point in the restaurant, has been removed. There is no longer any Carrollwood Brewery product included on the tap menu, which is unfortunate. I was a huge fan of Carrollwood Nessie! I pulled one star from my previous reviews because of their current state. I am not sure what the future holds for the Brass Tap, but I hope that they pull it back together soon. They are still one of our go-to restaurants in the area and the atmosphere can't be beat if you are a beer lover.

    Several flawless visits to the Brass Tap earned this place five stars in my book. I enjoyed this laid back brewery before the pandemic, and even more so during. This past year I've appreciated their efforts to combat the spread of the virus. Staff always wore masks. Plus, they opened huge windows to let fresh air in. I can't drink beer but there's always a delicious hard cider for me. The menu offers legitimately gluten-free options. Recently, I tried the Blackened Cod tacos, which were perfect in every way. I always appreciate chefs that think to heat up the corn tortillas. Always been a fan of the Buffalo Cauliflower appetizer. This place has enough TVs to watch every sporting event, and games tend to draw crowds. Casual atmosphere ideal for couples or large groups to enjoy the game with good mixed drinks, brews, delish munchies, and friendly staff. One of Carrollwood's gems!

    Cheese curds and half off wines on Wednesday yay!
    Marcia M.

    I love this place. They have the most amazing specials daily. The food is stellar. And Erika is possibly the best bartender on the planet. Tuesday specials are my favorite for tacos and margaritas but half off wine Wednesday's are also the bomb. Get the cheese curds. You won't regret it.

    It has been a while since I was here last. The food was good and the service was as well. Our server was nice and friendly but there were a few who looked as if they would preferred to be anywhere else but there. I got the chicken strips and fries. The Nashville Hot was a good choice, just the right amount of heat. There were enough TVs to watch whatever sporting event you wanted to see. I will definitely come back.

    Fried Shrimp

    I ordered the fried shrimp and fries on DoorDash. It was mediocre at best. More grease than flavor. Thanks to my paper towels to blot the grease, my air fryer to add crisp, and my Cajun seasoning... it was edible. I wouldn't order again.

    We have been sleeping on this place. It's actually in walking distance from where we live. Whenever we drive by, it's always busy. That is a great sign right there. We decided to have a meal and a drink (or two) for NYE. They were not to busy during this time. And we were ok with that. So we decided to sit outside. I started things off with a drink..... The Weekender. WOW.....Amazing and oh so tasty. I had 2. Lol My entree was the Baja Chicken Flatbread Pizza. It was soooo good y'all. I loved it. Very tasty and flavorful. Will probably get again on one of our future visits. My husband had a Lager Beer... Founders Gold Gold Premium Lager. He loved it. He had 2 too. And his entree was the Fish and Chips. Also very tasty. Highly recommend Brass Tap if you are looking for a relaxed cool place to grab a drink and a meal. And there are several TVs so you can watch the sporting event for the day.

    Delicious Beers on Tap @tiffhuangry

    I know the Brass Tap is a chain but I was pleasantly surprised by the food and beer selection. We came in to watch the FSU v UF basketball game (GO NOLES) and found a perfect view of the game in front of a few of the many TVs inside. We ordered some beers and tried some shareable small plates off the happy hour menu - the Brussels sprouts, the Queso and the tater tots. They come in sizable portions - perfect for small bites and sharing. They weren't anything spectacular but great for pairing with a beer. Definitely a great neighborhood bar!

    My friends and I went to Brass Tap yesterday and had such a good time. I got the jalapeño pretzel, chicken wrap, and tried the southern tier nitro and some sort of purple 1000 beer and it was all incredible. Shout out to our server Rachel for some killer recommendations. I forgot to take a picture of our food so heres our mean mugs instead

    Sea Dog Brewery Wild Blueberry and Coppertail Unholy
    Christina A.

    The Brass Tap in Carrollwood is in such a great location and has tons of seating available to sit and sip a beer. They have a wide variety of beer options available. I had the Sea Dog Brewery Wild Blueberry and my friends had the Unholy. The service was wonderful! I wish I would've caught our serve's name because she was the sweetest! Great music selection over the radio as well. We didn't try any of the food this time. I can't wait to go back and try other beers.

Full disclosure: we came in for one thing and one thing only -- KARAOKE! We've heard stories about O'Briens karaoke and the singers it draws for years, so we couldn't pass up an opportunity to check it out. It did not disappoint! The only food I tried that night was their fries, which were very good. As for drinks, I stuck to Irish Whiskey, and they've got a very good selection. The bartenders were friendly and attentive, which is always impressive on popular karaoke nights when its loud and crowded -- kudos to the O'Briens staff for keeping it cozy and welcoming! Now, more about karaoke! They've got a spacious "stage" for performers and its a large enough space that singers with big voices don't have to worry too much about being too loud. Sound mix is well-balanced -- you can tell they've been doing this for a while. Pro tip: If you want to sing more than once, get there early! When I put my name in I had 17 singers ahead of me, if that tells you anything about how busy it gets. All in all, we had a great time, and the next time we're out in Carrollwood we'll likely be back!

Their website indicates they've been in business 24 years in Tampa! When we arrived at 7:05 pm the place was about 20% full so plenty of tables for the seat-yourself arrangement. We were surprised to see the music didn't start until 9. Went to 1am. They took a 30 minute break at 9:30 so we cashed out at that point. We started with overpriced soda at $3.50 that resulted in almost $5 for one glass when a 25% tip and tax were added. They have two types of ciders, both excellent qualities with Strongbow and the Irish brand Magners. Prices were fair. Food: I tried their Emerald Isle sandwich, which was excellent with lots of flavor. Rate it 4.5/5. It was supposed to come with a pickle spear but I don't remember there being one. Wondered why they didn't adjust the price since they charged extra for sauce as covered below. The fries were thick and rate them 3/5. My friend got the Murphy's chicken sandwich. This comes with bacon and Swiss cheese; plus fries. Also good with nice flavor. 4/5 Service: Above average. The ladies were hustling and smiling as they took care of the growing requests as the place filled to capacity. Our server was always present and easy to flag down when needed. This justified the 25% tip, so nice job. Parking: plenty in the large lot. Forgot to show our server the Yelp check-in to get $5 off. Only complaints: 1) they charged extra for BBQ sauce. Not only did they not tell us about the up charge but it was a small quantity that should be the same treatment as ketchup or mayo. Furthermore we held the lettuce and tomatoes, so why not be okay with a substitute sauce? 2) While cleaning the table next to us they knocked the bottle of ketchup on the floor where it sat for about ten minutes. When the server picked it up she set it right back on the table without cleaning it. Hmmmm
