The Noble Experiment was really good, very smooth. The popcorn was some of the best popcorn I have ever had. It had perfect flavor and crunch! WOW!!! The service was great, super friendly and quick. The mac n cheese (chicken and sriracha) was okay. It was neither great not bad. It was good but definitely missing something (maybe gruyere or another type of cheese?). Other than that it was good. The location is adorable! Very close to a lot of adorable shops and bars. It is close to the ocean too. We really enjoyed this place and look forward to coming back and trying more. read more

Finally convinced a friend to check this place out with me. Spoiler alert - IT'S GOOD. Servers are super friendly and knowledgeable, ambiance is really cool, and well, the food.... It's incredible. Got the Robert Ford chicken sandwich, and it was hands down the BEST fried chicken sandwich I've ever had. Words don't describe how well it tasted. I don't drink, but they had a fantastic selection of spirits and our orders came quickly. So let's just say that if you're within a few hours drive, it's worth it to check this place out. Safety Harbor in itself has lots of cool places, but Gigglewaters is a main attraction imho. read more

We had a lunch and ate outdoors. The food, drinks, service and atmosphere were outstanding!! We look forward to trying a movie

Came here for a lunch date with my friend Michelle. Neither of us had been, so it was a new experience for both of us. The ambience was dark and almost spooky, the service was fantastic and the food was absolutely delicious. I would most certainly come back. read more

Came up for my grandson's AAU basketball tournament and saw this restaurant on Yelp. They have indoor,outdoor and theater seating. Great menu ! They are known for their burgers and fried chicken.

Gigglewaters has a vibe that takes you back to the 1920's speakeasy era. With a movie theatre out back and a really cool dining area (and adequate outdoor area), the bar is certainly cozy and welcoming. The servers are always friendly and helpful and the cocktail menu is impressive. Drinks are robust, food is fire, and the entire experience is worth coming back to again and again! read more

This place has a nice outdoor seating section as soon as you walk up with the hostess right outside. We chose to sit inside. We were seated right away. I loved the decor. There were many delicious looking drink options. There were only two of us, and seeing the size of the dishes brought out we knew we needed to skip the appetizer, though there were some delicious looking options on there. I opted for the PB&B which is a Peanut Butter and Bacon Burger. I never thought I would order a burger with PB, but I do LOVE PB and I LOVE Bacon, and the menu said "Trust us!" so I did. Boy was I glad I did! It was delicious! Sonwere the Truffle fries I got with it. My boyfriend got the mac and cheese with his burger. Once I tasted that I immediately told him we needed to come back soon to try their Mac and Cheese entrees. Definitely one of my new favorite places for burgers! And mac and cheese. I don't like most places mac, but this was delicious! read more

Okay this might be the most perfect a restaurant has ever gotten for me. It took me like three hours to figure out what I wanted on the menu, because they have pretty much all of my favorite foods including popcorn somehow. I got the Doctor Detroit which is mac and cheese, fried chicken, onion tanglers, and peppers. Honestly, more restaurants should have entree mac and cheese! My partner got the famous Commissioner which has bacon, onion tanglers, cookie butter, and a whole waffle. The mac and cheese is the definition of comfort food, huge portion and the optimal amount of cheese-- each bite felt like being wrapped in a giant cheese blanket. The chicken was also amazing, I loved how sweet and crispy it was, and I'm not a very spicy eater but the little kick it had was just right for me. The peppers really brought this whole thing to the next level, the sweetness overall just really did wonders for the mac! Unfortunately I was so full I didn't get to try the burger, but my partner put it on his top three burgers list next to TNT Burger and Burger Culture. Atmosphere inside is really cozy and welcoming, I'm really glad I came here at an off hour because I heard it gets reeeeal busy on the weekends. Love the unique wall decor as well, it was wonderful trying to explain to my partner that no, Jack Nicholson and Lucille Ball are not covered in full body tattoos. Our waitress was really sweet and even gave us some tips to the area, as we weren't very familiar with Safety Harbor. She even cheered on my partner as he struggled to finish his burger, which was very much needed. I'm absolutely putting Gigglewaters on my favorite eats list and will be back soon! read more

We came here on a Friday night, May 9th. It was probably our second or third time here overall. We got here at about 5:45 PM and were immediately seated inside. That's my first, and I hesitate to use the word complaint, but thing I did not like: it really doesn't matter whether you sit inside or outside because they have the doors wide open and if you're sitting by the front door as we were, you might as well be sitting outside because it was humid and not very comfortable, which is why we wanted to sit inside. Overall not the end of the world at the beginning of May, but come July or August that would not be comfortable at all and probably would be a big issue. Our server greeted us promptly and took our drink orders . I had the old-fashioned and added smoke to it. My girlfriend had the bees knees, and both of them were very good. Of course, I managed to spill mine within a couple of minutes of receiving it. But, they replaced it at no charge and I appreciate that. So kudos for that. When our server returned, we placed our order with our appetizer and entrées ordered at the same time and specifically ask her to space them out so we did not get them at the same time . You know what happened next: we didn't get the appetizer at all, and our entrées came out almost immediately. Once again, to their credit, they agreed to just package up the pretzels/appetizer and send it home with us at no charge and that was suggested by them and we appreciate that as well. I had the Hendry burger and it was messy and it was good . Their beef is Wagyu and you can definitely tell the difference. There's a reason they keep winning best hamburger in the Tampa area among other awards. So overall, there were some hiccups, but that's to be expected, but what really stood out was their ability and willingness to assist the customer when they make a mistake without any prompting, arguing, or even suggesting on the customers behalf . That goes a long way in my book. Kudos to giggle, waters and their team. And yes, I did tip the server with what would've included the price of the drink that was filled and the appetizer that was comped. read more

Great place for brunch. When I told my husband I was going to Gigglewaters for brunch with friends, he said, "Isn't that a bar?" Well, yes, but it is also a fantastic place for brunch. A friend recommended it and I was just along for the ride. Said friend thought it was going to be a line out the door, so she asked how early I could make it. They open at 9 a.m., so I begrudgingly said maybe 9:30 a.m. We were there right at 9:30 a.m. and there were only two other tables seated outside and no one inside. By the time we left around 11:30 a.m., there was only one table left open outside and it seemed like half the tables were open inside. This was on a Sunday. I think if you decide to eat brunch at a more reasonable hour, you still won't have to wait. I stared with the Bloody Mary. It's made with roasted garlic and was delicious. I highly recommend it. Then for my meal I got the Napoleon with coffee (needed to wake up since we got there at 9:30 a.m.). I didn't realize that their bubbly of the day is champagne infused with flavor. Our day, it was dessert pear. It came out a pinkish color (my friend ordered it). You can get carafes of their brunch drinks, which is a great idea if everyone is drinking the same thing. My second choice was the Buchanan, which my friend got. I really enjoyed my The Napoleon. The Buchanan looked more filling (the omelet was a good size), so depending on how hungry I am, I may switch to The Buchanan next time. This place is slow in terms of service, I think it was one waiter for the whole outside. But this isn't the type of place you should be in a rush to leave. I thoroughly enjoyed the meal and I'll definitely come back. read more

Local spot with yummy burgers and fun drinks. Still need to make it for a movie in their theatre.

What a cool place! It is perfectly decorated with the old-school speakeasy style and I heard they actually have a screening room in the back. Since we opted for outdoor seating, I didn't see the screening room. As for the food, it was tasty and portion size was better than average! I ordered the mac & cheese dish with bacon and bacon jam, and it was incredible. My friend opted for and said she loved it too!! Our waitress was attentive and super friendly and very good at her job. So, overall I gotta give them a 4.8 out of five stars! read more

We tried the Gigglewaters food truck when they were at 3rd Thursday in Tampa. The food came out quickly and it was decent. There wasn't anything overly special for the flavors and the price feels a little high for what you get. We had the Chicken Salad sandwich and the Plain Jane burger. I would probably try the restaurant if I was in the area. read more

Came on a Saturday for dinner and there was plenty of outside seating which was nice! I've only ever sat outside here but the inside is next on my list!

I was looking forward to experiencing the atmosphere, and the 15-minute wait was reasonable. The bar was busy but manageable. Unfortunately, the bartender appeared disengaged and was curt with my wife when she ordered a cocktail. Drawing on my experience from the food and beverage industry, I addressed the bartender by name and tried to engage in conversation. When it was time to move to our table, I paid the tab. Although the drink prices were high and the atmosphere felt unwelcoming, I still left a 20 percent tip. The cost of 2 drinks exceeded that of our dinner. read more

I came here with a friend for breakfast yesterday and it was very good. It was busy, but the service was on point and didnt take long for food and drinks to come out.

Had to comes try this place out after seeing on Man v Food! Located right in the main strip with street parking or a limited private lot. We parked across the street in the free lot. They have indoor and outdoor seating available. Indoor is very small with tables and bar seating. 1 restroom so be prepared to stand in line if you gotta go! Service was slow which is my only negative! We sat outside and it took forever to get even water. Had to flag down our waitress a few times for refills and napkins throughout the visit. We were seated prior to a few other tables but served last despite our orders being placed before theirs. When we questioned we were told that because those tables had 3 people as opposed to out 5 people it was easier and quicker to get their food out. Say what!? I ordered the Robert Ford which was absolutely delicious. I opted for the onion tangers which are just thin onion rings. My peach sangria was also really good. read more

We stopped in this afternoon and remembered what a nice spot this is!! Josiah is an excellent bartender but even better he is extremely personable and made us feel like we were supposed to be there!

Thursday night. They sat me at 6:53. The server acknowledged me at 7:09. Food was good.

A very cool restaurant and venue in the prime spot of Main Street, Safety Harbor. You honestly wouldn't even know it's here, but both indoor and outdoor seating with both options being good. Also, on the inside they have a movie theatre playing classic movies, where you can eat and watch a movie at the same time if you are feeling it, which is a cool and unique touch to the restaurant. The food itself is great. The Tommy Gun Margherita is super Smokey and spicy, which is my kind of taste. The pretzels with beer cheese are probably my favorite I've tried in the Tampa Bay area. For the main event, The Hendry, a nice juicy gourmet burger on a brioche bun with perfectly seasoned fries. A very gourmet type of restaurant which is very much worth the hype it receives. Good comfort food all around and a good experience. read more

Ok, look. I've had this place bookmarked for quite some time and finally made my way over there. It was INSANELY delicious! The chicken and waffles is BY FAR the TASTIEST chicken and waffles I have EVER HAD , amazingly scrumptious! The chicken was seasoned perfectly and is delicious on its own and decadent with the waffle and syrup. I could have engorged myself. We did have the baby Bellas as an appetizer and it was delicious and a much larger portion than we expected. Two of us didn't finish it. We also shared the Goldie Mac and cheese and it was delicious and creamy. For drinks, the Black Ship old fashioned was amazing and the Tommy Gun margarita was all I've ever wanted and never knew. I WILL be back. The inside is beautiful and has that speakeasy feel and look. There are also tables outside if you prefer. They also offer Monthly special drinks. read more

My best friend and I had a BLAST at Gigglewaters this weekend! Parking was free on the street in front and easy to grab. We secured tickets to Step Brothers in the screening room for $5 each and got there 45 min early to hang at the bar. We both got their signature margarita (delicious) and a side of fries to share. There's bar seating, indoor and outdoor. We went into the screening room where there are like 16 pairs of wooden seats with a small wooden table. They use a light button system with colors for service, check, etc. We ordered the cookie butter popcorn which came first. This thing was ridiculously incredible, my GOODNESS. There were a few chocolate covered peanuts (we wished there was more) and popcorn that was covered in some kind of sweet, cookie-butter flavor or sauce or SOMETHING??? We were in such heaven eating this popcorn we almost regretted ordering dinner because we just wanted to feast on this stuff. Our rookie mistake was ordering salads as our main, in a dark movie theater room where we couldn't see our plates to use our utensils. My friend got the caprese salad with chicken and I got the chicken salad salad. It was impossible to fork the lettuce and get chicken and everything because they came deconstructed rather than mixed and chopped (which in hindsight, duh), but it made for a difficult eating experience. That was our fault though! They tasted good, we just had no idea what we were eating. We requested the check before the movie ended so we could quickly bounce at the end. It was so pleasant and so much fun!! Next time, I'd probably skip the movie and just hang at the bar, but it was definitely a unique experience and I'd highly recommend. read more

Last night's experience felt like the Twilight Zone - not the movie we bought tickets for, which was Elf. If you're not familiar, Gigglewaters has a dine in movie experience. Food here has been historically good, and movie experience fun. Because of the treatment from "new management" - I will never be spending a dime here again nor even stepping foot inside this establishment. With high expectations from past visits of seeing movies and a meal at Gigglewaters, my wife and I had high hopes for our (first visit in a while) last night. We had just got a new puppy so after arranging a dog-sitter we headed over from St. Petersburg with our pre-bought (weeks in advance) tickets. The showing was at 4pm, with us arriving promptly at 3:55. Upon entering their "theatre" my wife and I noticed there were no two seats together. No big deal we thought and a very resolvable situation as long as we spoke with a service member. Upon speaking to the manager I was shocked by, in all honestly - the worst customer service interaction in my life. I was immediately told it was our fault we did not arrive "early enough" and the seating is "first come, first serve". Now, we PRE-BOUGHT two tickets. I didn't know five minutes early wasn't "early enough" (insane). A similar situation to as if we pre-bought tickets to a comedy club.. I am not expecting my wife and I to sit on opposite sides of the room and the establishment(which I have been at many) would never expect us to do that. So we asked for a resolution. Now, the disorganization is one thing and we are flexible.. But to be gaslit and told repeatedly by the manager it is specifically our fault was appalling. After going back and forth with her (and without us yelling, cursing, causing a scene) she continued to double down on how it was our fault. Not one word of accomodation. She then wrote our name and number on a piece of paper and walked away. After waiting 10 minutes she walks back, looks at us, and says "why are you still here?". She said she would call me later that night to answer my question about getting our money back - which never happened. Again, we are extremely reasonable people and understand things happen in dining, but to be disrespected and treated to the level we were - we will never be spending a dollar here again. The situation is baffling and I felt like I was watching the Twilight Zone, not the movie of the night - Elf. And for extra detail - we immediately went to another restaurant right down the street, had amazing service and food, and watched Elf at home. We will not be losing sleep over not going here again. read more

This place is about an hour away from where I live...and getting there involves my having to travel on two of the highways I avoid at all cost (4 and 275)...BUT it's worth the effort without ANY doubt!

Food is good, staff are nice. 4 stars bc it is a bit too pricey. The Wagyu burger didn't taste like one. It was way too much of a plain Jane. The Hendry Burger in the other hand was bomb dot com. Real bacon bits, good amount of cheese, and onions rings, and good patty size! I'd definitely get that again and devour it! So good! The onion rings was diggity bomb as well. Has a nice crunch to it!

The outside hosting station was welcomed with warm smiles, very clean and pleasent. My server, Dan was very attentive throughout my experience and thorough with the history of the quaint setting of this downtown historic restaurant. He recommended his favorite foods and the selection of many sauces offered to pare with the foods and appetizer did not disappoint. The soft pretzels with the horseradish sauce was amazing just as he described and the pimento grilled cheese sandwich on French toast with fries - hit the spot! In addition, in-house gourmet popcorn samples are available too if asked and my favorite was the butter garlic parmesan! read more

Pretty cool place in the quaint city (feels like a town) of safety Harbor. Gigglewaters is set up like a 1920s 30s Prohibition joint. Dark walls, old time photos on the walls, looks great. It also has outside seating which was very popular the afternoon that we visited. The menu is very unique. I will not list all the interesting choices, check out the menu photos. My choice for lunch was the Lansky. A quarter pound all beef hotdog, wrapped in bacon, deep fried, nestled in a toasted hotdog bun, with a large smear of cream cheese topped off with some scallions. What's that you say? Doesn't sound good? Wrong! It was freaking delicious! My Bride chose To have a burger named the meat wagon burger. It came with cheddar cheese, bacon, and a sunny side up fried egg. She subbed onion straws instead of fries. I think this was the first time she ordered a burger at a restaurant that she was happy with it! Yay! In the back room you can find old time movies Being played nightly with seats with small tables for enjoying snacks or your meals while viewing. They have a beautiful large bar set up that I'm sure will impress all who visit. read more

I stopped in for brunch at Gigglewaters on a recent visit to Tampa Bay and the first thing I noticed was how cool the vibe was! It felt like a speakeasy with leather banquettes, dim lighting and vintage ceiling tiles. The menu was filled with off-the-beaten path options. We opted for the breakfast burrito and plain Jane burger. The food didn't blow me away by any means, but the quality was good, the service was great and the ambiance was the real winner (though it was surprisingly loud for brunch time). The highlight for me was the fact that my entree came with a drink selection. The bubbly of the day (desert pear) was delicious, in addition to being a beautiful shade of pink! I would visit this spot again when in town to check out the screening room for a throwback movie with my meal. read more

Someone told me about Gigglewaters a few months back and I always wanted to check it out. The drinks seemed fun with good comfort food and a cute vibe. I visited Gigglewaters yesterday for a late lunch and a movie. We grabbed food in the restaurant first. The staff was super friendly, efficient and helpful. Out food and drinks were tasty and came out in an appropriate amount of time. I got the patty melt and the bangtail drink. The person I was with got the bacon wrapped hot dog and a giggle juice. The back theater for movie showings was a good size, could seat about 30 people. The movie tickets, food and beverage were all reasonably priced and worth our time and what we paid. Definitely will be going back soon! read more
