We were really looking forward to our visit to The Cork Room, but unfortunately it was a disappointing experience. We ordered two wines (which arrived quickly) and two food items — baked Brie and crab cakes. After waiting an hour, only the Brie arrived. Another 30 minutes later, we were told they were out of crab cakes entirely. The waitress was apologetic and comped our wine, which we appreciated, but the extremely long wait times and lack of communication really soured the night. Hoping this was just an off evening, but it left us hesitant to return.

This place is such a hidden gem! Absolutely loved the vibe and the bartender Greg made our experience ten times better! He was very knowledgeable about wine, had great recommendations, and was fantastic to chat with. This place and Greg are great!

The Cork Room is a hidden gem! It’s the perfect blend of class and comfort, with an incredible selection of fine wines and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The wine list is thoughtfully curated, offering something for every palate, and their wine tasting events are always a fantastic experience. Plus, the owner, John, is truly the best, making every visit feel special. If you love great wine and good vibes, definitely check out The Cork Room—and don’t forget to join the Wine Club!

This is an excellent place for a very nice glass of wine and small bites. They have an exceptional selection of wines by the glass. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming. Our server, Sophie, was knowledgeable and friendly. This is a great place for a drink and snack in a relaxed setting.

If you love great wine, The Cork Room is the place for you. John has a great selection, and variety, of some of the best worldly wines .... big Napa red, rare Italian super-Tuscans, French Bordeaux, the list could go on. Great service, great wine, very knowledgeable owner. We've been enjoying and collecting wine for over 12 years and being relatively new to Tampa, were super-happy to find this place!

The Cork Room is a gem on Davis Islands and our go-to spot!! Best wine bar!! Delicious food (obsessed with the deviled eggs and chicken piccata skewers) and great wine selection. Their wine tasting events are fantastic and the owner, John, is literally the best. We love the Cork Room and highly recommend joining the Wine Club too!

We attended a (mostly) Napa wine tasting a few weeks ago and thought it was GREAT. Many tastings in Tampa offer up cheap wine (why bother, lol) - but this tasting was all high quality choices, and the wines were discounted if purchased while at the event (smart.) Well worth the money - I wish they would hold them on Friday nights -- it would be our GO TO place!!
Awesome place.. extremely responsible prices.. great menu..

This spot is such a gem! The selection of wines-by-the-glass as well as other cocktails was great. We built our own charcuterie board and loved the variety of meats, cheeses, pickles, almonds, bread and various sauces that it was served with. We enjoyed our time on the patio and will definitely return for either another night out or to pick up a bottle to bring home.

Great place to meet your friends and explore new wines or enjoy your favorite. We were joined by two other couples and all agreed it was a memorable evening. Planning our next visit!
