Meat Market Happy Hour

An outdoor waterfront food and drink garden with live music and lawn games. It is walkable from downtown and throughout Water Street (or you can take the water taxi from the hotels), so you can spend all night or day experiencing both!

An outdoor shopping center with lots of great food too. Do some shopping, sit down for lunch or a drink, grab a coffee at Buddy Brew, or just stroll the brick-lined streets!

A historic neighborhood known as the "Cigar Capital of the World" and the best place to immerse yourself into Tampa's rich Cuban history during the day. We recommend you take the trolley from downtown into Ybor City during the day and check out the local breweries (Cigar City Brewing is a favorite), cigar factories, and shops - and, of course, the world-famous Colombia Restaurant for some traditional Cuban food and even an authentic flamenco show!

This part of Tampa's downtown is a favorite for dinner and nightlife and is walkable from both hotel blocks. Be sure to check out Boulon, Predalina, the Pool Bar at Edition, American Social, Anchor and Brine, Yard House, Alter Ego and many more for drinks and some food!

If you want to get active, take a walk or bike ride along Bayshore Boulevard (fun fact: it's the longest continuous sidewalk in the US). Plus, our wedding venue is located on Bayshore!

A food hall and outdoor space with endless dining options, bars, and water views of the Hillsborough River. Besides all the dining options inside the food hall, Rocca (be sure to get a reservation) and Ulele are great for food and M. Bird is a fun happy hour and late-night bar. Pro tip: take the water taxi from downtown all the way down the River to Armature Works!

If you are in town early or have a full day to explore, be sure not to miss award-winning St. Pete beach. The beach is about a 35-minute drive away, so be sure to plan accordingly!
