Half off flights. 4 6oz pours for $4! Friendly staff. Great selection of games to play. Dog friendly! Will come again.

So I decided to take my wife out for a quick drink and after reading the reviews was looking forward to going to this establishment. Well we arrived around 11pm only to be completely disappointed. We sat at the table for 10 min and was never approached to order a drink from the menu. To make it even more obvious that we were not welcomed 6 mins in the bartender made eye contact with my wife and waived. Really? It did not bother me that we were the only black couple there....It's 2021 get over yourselves. The only reason I gave it a 1 star was because it was open read more

Beer Snobs REJOICE They got beer, lots of beer, lots of beer you may have never heard of. Nice change of pace from your regular coors/miller/bud corporate giant independent beer murderering bars. lol FIGHT THE POWER MOTHAFUCKAZZ Anyways its a nice little placce in a pretty boring part of town. If you live in Largo/Seminole this probably is or should be your spot. Not much in the way of food unless you want chips and salsa but who cares, that IPA will fill your belly..............yummmmmm read more

Visited this brewery for my friends bday! Nice set up. Very laid back! You can play with cards too and bring some food as because they only serve snacks! The bartender was very nice! Enjoyed the place and had a great time with friends! read more

I love Willard's!!! Love love love it! 40 beers on tap which they rotate out frequently from lots of the local breweries. You also get a punch card for the beers you drink. Every time you fill out a card there's something new you get. The best reward is your own personalized mug which they keep behind the bar for you. They have the Oktoberfest mass holding challenge. Also so many board games and locals coming in daily with there own games. Everyone knows everyone and they'll make you feel right at home. I wish I lived closer to this place, it is truly fantastic! On my way there now. read more

See all

I must have driven past this spot at least 3,000 times before I finally went in, thanks to a friend's recommendation and invite. And boy am I glad I did. This unassuming hole in the wall is actually so lovely. It is lovely because it is exactly what it needs to be...a (mostly) quiet tap house with a TON of variety in beers and friendly and knowledgeable staff. I like their picnic tables in the middle and the variety of games available to get the conversation going. Definitely love coming here on a weekend or a random weekday night. Next visit - I will plan on going and ordering a pizza from Starkey pizza. They're a business 3 doors down and look pretty darn good and convenient! ;) read more

We always visit Willard's when we come down to visit. The selection of beer is amazing. It's super laid back, employees are nice and the decor is awesome. There are board games! And clean bathrooms! We have always gone on weeknights and it's not crowded at all - which I like. I absolutely appreciate that Willard's is vape friendly and that alone makes it our go-to bar in the area. read more

I had friends raving about this place for years. We finally checked it out about 9 months ago. This is the best craft beer bar in Pinellas County. The owner constantly rotates the taps. They always have 40 on tap, plus some rare bottles. There are almost always at least 10 local beers on tap. The bartenders are attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. This is a good local hangout. It's our Cheers. You can expect us here at least once per week read more

Willard's Tap House - Beer Bar Near Me - Largo, Florida

Love this place. Tons of great beers on tap!

Willard's was the first true craft beer bar in Largo. A welcome change, indeed. The bar is a bit small and unfortunately, the city won't allow them outside seating. The tap selection good. The beers change on a regular basis, but no fast that you'll miss a keg if you don't go every 3rd day. They like MMA and Hockey here, so that's generally what you'll find on the 2 TVs. However, this doesn't quite have the sports bar atmosphere, thankfully. The music is pretty quiet, but it's usually whatever the bartenders want to hear. Lots of DKM, NOFX, and some older punk. I dig this. Service will vary. The owner and his brother seem to do a much better job of refilling your glass then the other staff. Your mileage may vary. This place is generally populated with regulars. Given the location, there's not as much walk-up traffic, but the folks are friendly and it's not difficult to fit in with the gang. There's no kitchen, but you can bring in your own food or get some delivery. Overall a nice place for a good beer. read more

The best place to drink beer in Pinellas County. No, that isn't an exaggeration. We came across Willard's almost by accident a few years ago and boy were we lucky that we did. Heres the skinny: 40 beers on tap. Usually it goes 10 locals, 10 international, 20 from 'merica. Also, a few bottles available. Sundays, flights are 1/2 price. There are special releases what feels like once a week with visiting taps from all over the world and many selections you simply can't find anywhere else. Also, the staff is consisent, knowledgeable and always in a good mood. With the amount of great beer drinkers, there is usually a rare bottle being passed around for your sampling as well. Basic bar snacks are available, but Starkey Pizza next door will deliver it into the bar for you. I almost don't want more people to know about this gem, just don't steal my seat at the bar and we'll call it even! read more

This is my favorite tap house. I discovered Willard's about 8 years ago, shortly after they opened. Small and casual, it is the kind of place where everyone knows your name... well almost. There are 40 beers on tap, and they change often, all craft beers and small batch kind of stuff. The prices are reasonable, and they can always provide suggestions of you are unsure of which to choose. After a long hiatus, was happy to see my mug was still there, and waiting for my next pint. read more

It is pretty rare that new bars open up in Largo/Seminole. Much less one that I am actually excited about. It seems like any night out always involves a trip down to St. Pete, Dunedin, Clearwater, or Tampa. The Largo/Seminole area is pretty barren when it comes to someplace that isn't dive-y, a biker bar, or smoke-ridden. Luckily, Williards has opened and it succeeds in providing a welcome alternative. The formula at Williard's is based off the recent craft, microbrew, import craze which has led to places like The Independent, World of Beer, Dunedin House of Beer, and The Brew Garden becoming so popular. They have rotating selection of 40 specialty drafts available in a nice modern setting (I was able to pick out the use of Ikea high-tops and tables). Best of all the place is smoke free which is great because who wants to smell like an ashtray and wash everything they are wearing every time you go out. They offer a WoB-esque club where you get a card to punch out every time you try out one of many beers they have to offer and get your name on a plaque and also a t-shirt when you complete the task. The two owners were tending bar the night I went and they were both very personable and friendly. They were more than willing to pour samples since it is impossible to be familiar with every offering they have there so it is easy to explore the menu and find a new favorite. I had an excellent Belhaven Cream from Scotland and Tucher Hefeweizen from Germany. They also were carrying Magic Hat #9 from Vermont which is becoming more readily available in the area, but always makes me happy to see. Another big plus was they played an awesome mix of music that evening which included a lot of punk rock which I was amazed to be hearing out in public. The bar is in the same Starkey Road strip mall as the Golden Bear Breakfast restaurant and next to Bett's Fishing Center. It is definitely worth a visit, and I plan on returning soon. read more

The beer is excellent. The taps and the bottle list--amazing. Let's start with that. I mean, that is why one goes to a tap house, isn't it? For the beer! So far I've tried Belhaven's Scotch Ale, Swamp Head's Wild Night, Harpoon Summer Beer, The Bruery's Orchard White, Ace Perry cider, and a root beer (because I was DD). Why try so many different beers? Why not?! The guys at Willard's reward an open mind. They give repeat customers a card to punch off each brew they try--and there's a prize for completing a card! Willard's has a great atmosphere. It's clean but dark, decorated with brewery signs, cool beer bottles, growlers, and other brewing paraphernalia. The music isn't thumping club bass or screeching twangy Southern rock. It's a great mix of bands you might remember from school, if you're about my age, and will like regardless of your generation. The guys behind the bar are as awesome as the beers they serve--fun, friendly, attentive, and always willing to talk about the beers or offer a taste to help you decide. These guys know and love beer, and their enthusiasm is contagious. You'll try stuff you can't even pronounce, and more often than not you'll love it. I know I have. Willard's is a Largo treasure, and definitely my new neighborhood bar. read more

I've been here a few times and always enjoy how many great and unique beers they have on draft. However, my most recent visit my hubby and I noticed the increase in prices for a 12oz draft craft beer. Spending at least $7-$10 for a beer is just too pricey. We like this place but just got really pricey unfortunately: ( read more

This place is second to none. The owners are friendly and great to talk to. The beer selection is always changing so you can always find a few great beers to enjoy. read more

Like it! Many many taps as well as a description of each on the chalkboard and above all a bartender who is knowledgeable and friendly and not at all the typical smarmy little punk ass condescending know-it-all that is found in so many of these places. I asked him some questions about their Ocktoberfests on tap and he answered knowledgeably and as if he wanted to make sure I got the one I wanted. Not rushing me nor anybody else in the place. That was sort of the vibe at the entire place a sort of mellow, patient, friendly kind of a place. I really liked it all and I will certainly be back. read more

Great selection. Great atmosphere. The place made me feel a bit claustrophobic. Service was great. Just wish it was more open.

Best brew pub you will ever find in a strip mall. 40 beers on tap. No crap on tap policy (don't come for a bud light). Only chips and dips but see Starkey pizza for food. read more

Love the selection. Wish they had more than one cider out of the 40 taps but. Also love the fact that it's in largo. Finally some culture that doesn't have crap beer in the area read more

If you enjoy quality brew, this is the place to go. And if you have had few and get a case of the munchies theres a solid pizza joint a few doors down. Cheers! read more

We are in town visiting and ended up checking this place out two nights in a row! The idea of color-coating their menu makes the decision making process easier and the staff is very knowledgable. There was a huge variety of beers to choose from and the layout keeps it from feeling crowded and loud even in a busy night. They're always changing it up and keeping the menu fresh which would make it easy to become a regular at a place like this! read more

You will not find a better beer selection anywhere else in the area. The "beer tenders" are by far a group of the most knowledgeable people around when it comes to beer. The atmosphere is cozy and warm, where you can play board games, listen to live music (on certain nights), watch a sporting event on TV, or order a pie from the pizza place next door. read more

Like the rest of the reviews said, great place if you're a beer lover. Had a neighborhood bar type of feel to it. Seemed like there were a lot of locals/regulars there. But we had drinks and played connect 4 so you can't beat that! read more

I love this location they always have a great rotating stock of choice brews. The pricing is excellent and the location is great. This is definitely one of my favorite locations to go especially when I just don't know what kind of beer I want. read more

Best tap House around! The staff is amazing! Everyone is super friendly and very attentive, after being there a few times they usually remember your name and even what styles of beer you usually drink. Small but relaxed venue, never any drama. read more

Really great establishment with friendly staff and a huge selection of beers to choose from. It's fun to go, sit at a table with some friends and bust out a card or board game while having a drink or two. Definitely a cool place! read more

If you like craft beer, go to Willard's. They have nothing but craft beer. Don't look for a Heineken or Budweiser or you might be shown the door! (I don't really know if they would do that, but they might give you a strange, quizzical look). The place could be a little bigger, but I have never really felt crowded here. read more

Cool little spot to hang out. This was stop number 2 the other weekend after stopping at Rapp Brewing Co. Fortunately for me this place has cider :) #winning. Brandon is also a fan of this place because they have so many "good" i.e. craft beers on tap and usually local... Florida. If you don't have time to drive to Jacksonville to visit the newest breweries on the weekend you can stop in here and most likely they have exactly what you are looking for. They also have a little club thing, where you get a card and once you collect (by drinking enough beers) you get your own mug and you can decorate it and do what ever you want to it. There's obviously different stages to it but it's a cool/different rewards system for loyalty customers. The bar tenders were also very knowledgable and helpful.... and they have some menus there where you can order in food while you hang out and drink. Side note: don't order from the pizza place around the corner "starkey pizza" NOT GOOD! read more

Love this place! Best selection of craft beers in the area. Plus, they have a punch card, where every time you complete the card (40 beers, 40 punches) you win something. read more

I love this place. Such a great hangout spot! They have at least 40 awesome beers on tap. Not the place to go to get a Bud Light but if you like good beer it's the place to be. They have a really fun way to drink through all the beer they offer. Each one is numbered and you get a card that is punched for each number. Once you finish three cards you get your own personalized ceramic mug that is just for you to use when you come in. They only have snack food but they let you bring in or order in any food you want. Very nice and knowledgeable staff very helpful in helping pick the right beer without making you feel like a craft beer rookie. read more

Brother brought me here for my birthday, and long story short I discovered I don't like beer! However, Zombie Killer is delicious, the environment is nice, you can sample as many beers as you want, and there's even games to play! I got a lot more out of that night than I thought I would. read more

Great selection of craft beers and knowledgeable bar staff. Place is ho hum visually but is clean and comfortable...no food is a bummer but still worth dropping in. read more

I came in not entirely sure of what to expect, but I've gotta say this is one of the best places to grab a beer in Pinellas county. I love trying new stuff, so I got the sampler which included 4 different beers to pick out, and they have sooo many to choose from, all on tap. The bar tender was great, I will be back very soon! read more

One of the best selections in the area. Can get pizza in strip mall and eat there. Mostly older men at the bar, but there are a selection of games read more

Friendly staff, good selection of quality beers on tap, good prices. If your looking for good selection of craft beers at reasonable price this is the spot. No food but couple places close by will deliver. read more

Awesome beers and atmosphere. Board games and video games to pass time and decorated like an English pub. Very cool place to spend a few hours with friends or alone as the staff and regulars are very friendly. read more

Great selection of beers, good atmosphere good staff. It's a fun place to hang out after work with friends.

This place is a must see for anyone who considers themselves a beer aficionado. Blaine has created a great environment for people to get together and have fun while enjoying the best craft beer on the market. Even the most sophisticated pintsman will find at least 1 beer they have not tried yet thanks to Willard's constant search for new local brew. read more

Amazing little hole in the wall. 40+ beers on tap 20 or so local. Great place. Knowledgeable staff and great atmosphere.
