The Bricks is a classic bar‑restaurant, the kind of place where you can settle in with small bites, a good beer or a cocktail, and feel like you've found an easy rhythm in the middle of Ybor. This was our third stop of the evening and a genuinely pleasant one, helped along by Andrea, who was friendly, upbeat and made the visit feel even more relaxed. We ordered beers and their roasted hummus, which came with thin‑sliced cucumbers and carrots. When one of my friends mentioned that he's allergic to carrots (yes, really), Andrea didn't hesitate. She brought out a basket of tortilla chips so he could enjoy the hummus without worry, and the rest of us made sure the carrots stayed far from the shared plate. It was a small gesture, but it added a nice touch of hospitality. The whole place has an easygoing vibe, the kind that makes you want to linger a little longer, and its spot right on the main drag of Ybor makes it an ideal pause point on a walking tour. It's a dependable, welcoming stop that's well worth including. [Review 41 of 2026 - 2226 in Florida - 25232 overall]
We found this place because it was close to our hotel and we were craving dessert! There was a great band playing and the service was excellent! We had espresso martinis, a brownie and ice cream! It was exactly what we were craving! Their food menu looked fantastic and the food coming out looked delicious but we never made it back to try any of it.
The nachos were layered very well. They lived up to the name. I would've preferred more meat, but that's okay because the service was impeccable. I actually only talked to one person (very sorry, I don't remember the name. Brad? I think he may have been bald or he had really short hair. That was two weeks ago so I really don't remember). Anyway, he was really friendly, so I'm giving 5 stars. The nachos are about a 3.5 but the experience as a whole was 5
Came for the vibes left with a stomach full of good food. Staff was super friendly and helpful I went during a pop up with alter ego so the menu might've been exclusive but nonetheless everything that came out looked delicious I got the breakfast burrito and my friend got the avocado toast both were delicious the jalapeño aioli is a MUSSTTT TRYYYYY it took my burrito to the next level. They also serve drinks and coffee. There is a beautiful outdoor space with really cool art I can't believe I've never been here. I'll be telling everybody about the sauce
Happy hour is where it's at!! Regular prices are a bit much, but you can't beat a $4 well or $5 draft! Chill vibe, seemed like a nice place for locals and also for those like us, who came from out of town to see a show at the Ritz! Staff was super attentive, checking in multiple times to make sure we didn't need a new drink or want to order food. Around 5:30 things get a little dark and moody. The staff shut the lights out put or candle to get ready for the night life. Cute and subtle switch up, but it makes a big difference. We didn't order food personally, but the smells were smellin' in the best of ways! The table in front of us had two women, one ordered some kind of salad and the other ordered nachos. The nachos looked amazing and I did notice that the woman eating them did not finish the bowl, so they definitely could have been shared. If we end up here again the Nachos will be at the top of our list!
Spent the weekend moving our son to Tampa and decided to find this restaurant that I enjoyed over 8 years ago while working in Tampa. Atmosphere was amazing, service was great, and food was wonderful as it should be!
Was visiting Ybor for a show and discovered this corner restaurant for Happy Hour. It was very nice on the inside and spacious, with kind service as well. The Happy Hour was from 4pm-7pm everyday which is a blessing and features $4 wells, $5 select drafts and house wines. While there there was not a $5 draft at first but the waitress talked to the manager and got one selected since happy hour was happening. We did not order food, but the food smelled and looked good. The only complaint really is that it is a bit pricey for certain things(exception being Happy Hour of course). But I do recommend trying it!
Was invited to meet with a friend for the end-of-the-year party there...had a great time. The vibe was good. The music was good as well... karaoke out on the porch it was hilarious. I loved seeing the different types of artwork that were displayed and overall environment was very nice. I will go back and will highly recommend.
Typical sports bar, nothing that makes it stand out from any other sports bar honestly. The location is pretty convenient and it has plenty of indoor/outdoor seating. Fun spot to grab a drink and watch games/fights as there are plenty TVs. The food is pretty good, again, typical sports bar food but it's good! Just a warning.... the mozzarella sticks are GIANT logs. My bf and I ate them before our meal and honestly we were pretty full from all the cheese. Otherwise they are really tasty :D
Back from the dead, The Bricks rises like the phoenix from the ashes of Covid. I've been keeping an eye on this place for a while now. They are open again! The menu has been chopped down to a manageable size. The staff is almost all new but the vine is the same. I came on a friday night early, like 7pm and they were kinda slow. Sat at the bar and ordered a bartender special, ask them what their best drink is and let them make it. I got a tiki type drink with mezcal that didn't have a name. It was pretty good and I liked the dehydrated lime, nice touch. I ordered the bird and pig sammich, i just saw honey and brie. It was fantastic, i ate every bite. The cabbage slaw was decent but I'd pick something else next time. They have coffee, full bar and creative meal ideas for a decent price. What else can you ask for in Ybor? Do yourself a favor, be the brick just waiting for a window to smash!
The bricks is a cool spot. It's at the end strip of ybor so it's no in the middle of the hustle and bustle. I sat at the bar, the service was great, the food was pretty tasty. It's a nice place to go before you hit the ybor strip and start drinking!
Came here for a quick stop while we waited for our hotel to be ready. Nice little vibe in here. The playlist is off the chain, and the staff is super friendly. Ordered the Original Sin Hard Cider. Super crisp, and light. For an app I went with the black bean hummus. Exceeded my expectations for sure. This place deserves to be packed on the weekends. No stone unturned.

I had a great experience at The Bricks! They have an entirely new food and drink menu. They have happy hour on weekdays from 12p-6pm and live music on the weekends. I tried the mac and cheese, the ahi tuna bowl, and my favorite was the Versace hot dog (crispy bacon, truffle aioli, arugula, hot honey). Emma was my waitress and she was friendly and attentive. There's metered street parking available and a nearby parking garage. read more
After an early afternoon meeting in Ybor and not having eaten anything yet I went into an empty "The Bricks" to check it out. The CAESAR - romaine, garlic croutons, parmesan, caesar dressing with bacon was outstanding. That and a beer made my day. Sure, I was hungry but in writing this I want to go back and have it again! Okay, I'm hungry now too but I really don't think that's the entire story. Bar service was amazing. I dig the Peanuts theme for the restrooms - Chucks and Chicks. read more

This is one of my favorite spots in ybor!! The bird and pig sandwich is always a good choice! The pacific rim is also quite tasty as is the ahi tuna bowl! You can't really go wrong here read more
So happy they've opened again! I've been coming here since this place first started. It is now a staple in the ybor community. A great selection of beers and spirits. Great atmosphere. Unique food options. What's more to love? Hopefully they start doing more events like they used to. With covid everything is kinda up in the air at this point. Had their classic Bird and Pig. This sandwich has gone through many iterations but it's gotten better with every one. They have great bowls too! Kung Fury and add pickled red onions will do you just right! They have great specials as well but you gotta be quick to get them because supplies never lasts lol! Thanks for all you guys do :) read more

This unassuming bar is on the far end of 7th ave in ybor. It's the kind of place you go regularly with friends to shoot the s**t. The drinks are pretty tasty. It's exactly what you'd expect at happy hour prices but it gets you where you need to be. I had the shrimp option on the happy hour menu. I believe it was a taco but I had it put on a salad instead. I've been thinking about this salad all week. It's incredibly delicious and the shrimp was seasoned very well. It also wasn't rubbery, that's always good. The waitstaff was always there right when I needed them but not in a badgering way (thank goodness) and they have great suggestions. read more

My boyfriend and I tried this place for the first time and absolutely fell in love with it! Kyle was our bartender/server and we could not have been luckier to have him! He made excellent suggestions, was very knowledgeable on the history of different drinks, and at the end of our visit we even had him make us a drink with his own twist on it! It turned out sooo good! Josh was also super friendly, and Devin and Marley make the best food! The menu is the perfect size with super unique food selections, so that was really nice to see too. We will definitely be back and are so glad we found this place! read more

High prices for cheap store bought grocery items.The tuna nachos use cheap Tostitos bagged chips and Tostitos cheese. But are $18!! WHAT?? My friend also said they were made wrong: They should come with other sauces to make it more oriental that go with tuna, Not just tuna and some cheese in a jar. The chicken tacos lacked flavor. We were given a handful of Tostitos chips with the tacos but nothing to dip them in lol. Brie also lacked flavor. I requested my taco sauce on the side and was not givin it. So I had to flag the server down to ask for it. Had to ask for salt and pepper because they also don't keep that on the table and he didn't care to give us any. He was definitely not friendly and didn't care to be there.... none of us will be back read more

We had tickets to see Built to Spill at The Orpheum on Friday, Oct. 11 and since Ybor is a bit of a ride, we took full advantage of our visit by grabbing a quick bite and checked out La France beforehand. I had heard about The Bricks because of their FB events - I'm dying to go to Goth Brunch but alas, have nobody to go with. Based on photos and reviews, it was so nice finding a place where I felt like I fit in. So tired of the lame sports and redneck bar scene near my home - this was such a welcome change of scenery - like being back in NYC circa the late '80s or '90s. There was even a DJ spinning my old faves from The Beastie Boys and New Order. Who's There? Due to all of the good reviews, I was actually worried we'd have to wait to get inside, no wait at all - yet not awkwardly empty. Just the right about of well-behaved, cool kids of all ages - I finally didn't feel like the oldest person there. Menu Options I don't drink so it was a boring Arnold Palmer for me ... We were hesitant to fill up before a concert, so we opted for apps. My friend's not a big meat eater, nor am I, so we decided on the chips and queso and a cheese, nut and fruit plate. Both were delicious, however you know the deal with fruit plates - never enough crackers or "vehicles" to deliver the cheese to your big ole mouf. We managed okay though. Everything tasted fresh and the prices were fair. Such Great Service Our waitress was super sweet and attentive. She stopped by several times to check on us and refill our soft drinks. read more
Great options for gluten free and non gluten free diners. I was in town for a concert and wanted to grab some food beforehand. My husband and I sat at the bar and shared the bricklayer nachos which were awesome. I loved the spin on traditional nachos with queso, jalepeno aioli and black bean corn relish. I opted for the shrimp tacos for my entree which were made gluten free by swapping out flour tortillas for corn, I loved the crunch of the asian slaw. We ordered a couple double Titos which were fairly expensive but strong. I had a yelp offer for a free coffee which somehow disappeared but the nice server gave it to us anyway. There must have been a better way to park, we used the public lot a street over and was $15 plus a pain to use the machine to pay. I saw a garage nearby, that may have been better but being from out of town we just went with what was closest. Great experience overall and we would surely come back! read more
