Datz is an eclectic South Tampa favorite. Breakfast lunch and dinner are all great! The bacon-jalapeno mac n' cheese bites are my favorite. You can text "Datz" to 626-414-3210 to add yourself to their wait list ahead of your arrival.

Cheese Please is a really unique and unforgettable little wine and cheese place. Owners Michael and Carlos make you feel like their best friends and always have great wine recommendations. They have tastings on some Fri and Sat nights which you should go online to reserve your spot for. They even have grilled cheese now! Don't be afraid of the strip center outside appearance, I promise this place is a hidden gem!

Drinks & Nightlife

Casual sports bar atmosphere with a nice big patio. Usually has live music outside. The food is really good, especially the zucchini fries! I recommend going for a $6 Ketel One bloody mary.

Anchor Bar's original location on Davis Islands is a great spot for a laid back night. It is a divey place with lots of locals. Friday is mug day with a $2 mug purchase you get $4 liters of beer. I have some mugs in the condo you can bring with you to save the $2! The wings and anchor fries are amazing drunk food!

Located in Centro Ybor in a tiny hole in the wall. The staff here is so amazing and I have never had a glass of wine here I didn't love. Their "wine society" is Wednesdays at 7 pm, and for $20 you get a wine tasting and food pairing. Often the wine maker themselves is at the tasting, other times they will have a theme. The last one I attended was "patio pounders" (wines good for drinking on hot days outside). Reservations recommended for wine society.

Biking or driving out to the end of Davis Islands to watch the sunset is one of my favorite things to do in Tampa. There is a small beach, dog park, places to fish, walk/bike path, and lots of open areas to play in. You can watch the plans take off and land at Peter O' Knight Airport or watch the Thursday night sailing races that take off from the Davis Islands Yacht Club. Thursday nights the yacht club is open to the public and you can even join the crew of one of the boats!
