Lounges in Tampa, FL

“The Heights Lounge has become my favorite spot in the city, all thanks to Dan. Dan's a mixologist there, and he's not just good - he's on another level. The range of drinks this guy can create is insane. He's got everything from kava and kratom to the best coffee and tea. And the hookah blends - are great. Dan's a great dude to hang out with. He's always got time for a chat, even when the place is packed. He remembers your name, your favorite drink, and he's interested in what you think. The Heights Lounge is fantastic. The vibe is just right - I've brought a bunch of my friends there, and every single one of them likes it. It's rare to find a place like this. If you haven't been to The Heights Lounge, do yourself a favor and check it out. Ask for Dan, tell him what you like, and prepare to have your mind blown. You'll thank me later.“

“An amazing establishment. Laid back atmosphere upstairs, dancing and drinking downstairs. Best of both worlds.“

“I recently visited this hookah lounge and had an amazing experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was chill and inviting, with dim lighting, great music, and comfortable seating that made it easy to relax for hours.

The hookah itself was top-notch — smooth hits, dense clouds, and a great variety of flavors to choose from. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and quick to help with flavor recommendations or coals when needed. I especially appreciated how clean and well-maintained everything was, which made the whole experience feel even better.

They also had a nice selection of drinks and light snacks to go with the vibe. Whether you’re looking to unwind after a long day or hang out with friends in a laid-back setting, this place definitely hits the mark.

Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Went for open mic... great people! Warm and welcoming!“

“We stumbled upon the gem of a restaurant while checking out the info on the Egypt Temple built near our home. Our visit started with a warm greeting from the bartender/waitress Stacey P. who is an amazing ambassador for this venue. She is a wealth of knowledge and a welcoming personality. The food is amazing! I had the Build your own Double Smash Burger which was cooked to perfection. My friend and his wife enjoyed the Prosciutto and fig flat bread and the Smash Burger with Swiss. My wife enjoyed the Caesar Salad with grilled chicken and we shared an order of fried mozzarella cheese sticks. It was such an amazing and relaxing experience that I would highly recommend. Being a Trekkie I give it 5 🖖🏻🖖🏻🖖🏻🖖🏻🖖🏻 Live Long and Prospers! Transport you and your crew down for an out of this world experience and be sure to say hi to Stacey, she’ll treat you right.“

“Wow! 7th & Grove was the best part of my trip to Tampa. I was greeted at the door by Alicia and she accommodated my party of 5 on the fly! Bri, our waitress was amazing! Quick. Efficient. Friendly. Jarvis - the manager is a people person, you can tell he genuinely loves what he does. He walks by every table and checks on everyone. Loved that. Overall - if you’re looking for good music, good people, and great food - 7th and Grove will not disappoint!“

“This is our favorite place to celebrate any special occasion in our lives. Tampa has such a vast amount of dining options, but we always find ourselves at Eddie V's. Rome always takes care of us and is a big reason why we keep coming back.“

“Mojitos Tampa: you need to be made aware of the fact that what you are charging for bottles of water is ABUSIVE. We were charged $5 per bottle of water. Mind you, this is normal bottled water that comes in cases that can be found for $6 for the WHOLE CASE. First of all, we didn’t ask for water in a bottle. Restaurants are supposed to provide their customers with FREE ice water in glasses. Second of all, this wasn’t bubble water or any kind of fancy soda water. And third… this is a price gouging situation that should be amended ASAP. You cannot charge FIVE dollars for one bottle of water like that. The maximum that should be charged for drinking water like that in a plastic bottle that was purchased wholesale most likely arguably should be $1.50, if that. This is an unacceptable business practice. Besides this price gouging, we had a nice experience and the food and other drinks were good and reasonably priced.“

“I skidded into this place on two wheels completely overwhelmed with anxiety. I'd never tried kava or kratom and I had a nice chat with Tom and left with a sugar free peach drink that I'm now convinced I'm not supposed to live without. I'm SO glad I found this place and I will definitely be back to continue my kava education with Tom/kava YODA. THX, TOM for your help, time and for turning that AWFUL day around.“

“Absolutely love this smoke shop! The employees are some of the nicest people I hvae ever met. they are knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to help you find exactly what you are looking for. From premium cigars to unique vaping supplies, this shop has everything you need. But what really sets them apart is their custome service. The staff genuinnely care about their customers and make you feel like family. Ive been going to this shop for a while and i wouldnt go anywhere else.“

“Jake was very knowledgeable about his craft, and an overall cool dude to hang out with. Drinks were fantastic.“

“Great hotel rooftop restaurant and Scott the general manager is the nicest guy. I was having dinner and I ran out of a couple tortillas and he himself went in there and grabbed a few more. He has a lot of hospitality in his blood. If you come here, make sure you take a few moments to step outside and check out the view which is spectacular. If you do come here ask for Scott and tell him Hank sent you“

“Last Sunday, my friends and I had an absolute blast at Union New American on Westshore—seriously, it was the best brunch ever! If you’re on the fence about checking it out, leap on over! The venue oozes elegance and luxury, making you feel like royalty. But let’s talk about the star of the show: the food! We indulged in a mouthwatering array of delights like the Union Sticky Bun, sushi, the legendary Union Burger, and oh my goodness, the Korean Fried Chicken & Waffles! Plus, don’t even get me started on dessert—yum! The cherry on top? The fabulous service from Jacob and Alena, who made our experience unforgettable, even with the restaurant buzzing with excitement. We’re already planning our next visit and can’t recommend Union New American enough!“

“Edge was so cute and fun with great drinks, views, and sofas to chill with friends. My only beef is to bring in more cooling systems because we were all sweating a bit too much. Even misters with fans closer to the customer could work fine. Would go back!“

“Honestly, it was one of the best airport burgers I have ever had. It was fresh, it was hot the tater tots were well done. I couldn't have asked for anything more. The drinks were extremely tasty also. I want to fly more so I can go to this restaurant again!“

“fist time going, I'll go back nice friendly atmosphere,“

“Good views of the city from soho. This is a small place which you get through by going through bula. Evenings are nice with some cocktails. Can get crowded very quickly as a
lot of people come out here to hang out. There is a good chance there might not be any seating left. But i do recommend to come her to have some pleasant evenings.“

“It's calmer and not as crowded as most of the reviews described the atmosphere.“
