THE LOFT YBOR CITY- Elevated Bar & Food

Excellent service from the staff, food was delish, their cereal concoctions are a must try!! Place was nice and clean with a fun vibe to let your inner child out.We chose to go during a quieter time through out the week with kiddos as weekends get busier. lol....Great experiences for weekend fun as pictured

Came to this place for a brunch crawl with friends. The food was below average, but the drink was really good. Unfortunately, the star rating I’m giving this place isn’t due to the drinks/food, but the service. This place was not busy during the time we came and the waitress we received was not great at all. My friends never receive their drinks, which we asked for twice. And she did not give us the water we requested twice! She didn’t even give me silverware. It was just so disappointing to experience. I’ve never receive bad service before or I’m pretty chill considering the circumstances. This was by far the worst that I had to write a review. Cute ambience but I won’t be recommending this place at all, if anything I’ll be warning people.The pictures: anytime breakfast sandwich and cafecito martini

Cute place with fun vibes, swing chairs, and yummy cereal-themed food options. We had the chicken tenders and they were very juicy! Also had The Picard specialty cocktail, it was served hot, and was oh so delicious.

We had a wonderful visit here! The retro vibe & unique cereal theme make it such a fun place to be. We met the owners and they were a delight. Good drinks and fun menu.

We went to the Halloween cocktail event in the basement.. it was really cute! I loved the atmosphere, the food, the drinks, it was so great! Well be back!

Overall a really awesome bar to hangout at. The food takes you back to being a kid with an adult twist. Not to mention the cocktails were amazing. The owner is a really great guy too. Has a lot of fun stories. Cartoons on all the TVs too. A must stop for anyone taking a trip to Tampa and the Ybor City neighborhood

Super cute place with a fun speakeasy style room down stairs. My bf and I did the Haunted Tavern event and it did not disappoint! Afterwards went upstairs to the main part and had delicious cereal style cocktails. Pictured are the Lucky Leprechaun and I can't remember the name but it's Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Loved it!

Very unique place! The CerealHolic has a comfortable, not overly bar like, atmosphere, great food and service is with a smile. There is also a little more to this place than meets the eye. Be sure to get a tour of the downstairs Speak Easy! Very Cool Place! Lots of stories are told about the building and the people who have been there in the past! I can tell you about the food, but it's better to experience it. I can tell you about the Speak Easy and some of the stories that we were told, but again, to experience it, takes it to another level. Hope you have as much fun as we did!

I was visiting Tampa for the weekend and had to try this place. Reminded me of my childhood. Definitely get a 90s vibe from this place. Try the chicken wings. Very sweet and tangy!

Really wanted to like this place; decorations are cool, concept is neat, but the service is awful! It took 2 hours to get our food and the place was mostly empty! Then one person ordered a baked potato and an hour after ordering we were told there were no potatoes! Then my daughter had a hair in her Mac-n-cheese. They did take that off the bill and gave everyone 15% off the bill, but it's NOT enough to make us come back!

Sooo CerealHolic Cafe & Bar is definitely for people with a sweet tooth lol. I don’t eat much sweets but wanted to give it a try. We sat at the bar where we got the firsthand wonderful treatment of the bartenders. They were fun just to watch and talk to. The decor is super fun! It brought back old memories of my childhood and made me feel old, ha! The bartender was nice enough give us a taste of the drinks before ordering which helped us pick! If you go, don’t order something regular or it will be regular. Have a little fun and get something different!What was ordered: Build Your Own Breakfast / Eggs & Bacon / Fruity Pebbles Infused PancakeEggs & Bacon = Can’t go wrongFruity Pebbles Infused Pancake = Who thought of this yummy concoction

We were 1 of 2 couples in the entire restaurant, there were 2 people (or more) in the kitchen and 4 people in the front of the house. We were at a cereal place so I ordered the cereal milk flight, I was told that it would take too long to make and they were too busy. It was the reason we came!! I ordered the grilled cheese with three types of cheese, it was three slices of America cheese. My boyfriend got the breakfast burger and has been sick on his stomach for over 24 hours since then.It seems like a wonderful concept just very poorly executed. The woman sitting at the bar eating steak and a salad- not on the menu- was not helping the others. It seems the crew before the ones that were currently working didn't do their prep or cleaning because the place was dirty. The bathroom was horrid. Food on the floor in the dinning area, tables not clean, and the poor bartender was cleaning as fast as she could.

Had a GREAT time at this amazing place. The food was great and the service was damn good. Great job to Stephanie and also to Lisa, one of the owners. You can tell they put time and effort into every single thing. Great atmosphere and great food for those who want to splurge and also choices for those who are health oriented as well. One of Tampa’s hidden gems with history and flair!

Fun place! I'd probably return with my friends and our kids as there's plenty of nostalgia to look at and games to play. Wish they had more drinks that incorporate alcohol, but definitely go and try! It was fun!

Amazing food! Even better service.
