We had to make sure trash was all tied up, we put it in the dumpster, all chairs and tables put up, basically make sure the place was cleaned up. Let me tell you something; being married for close to 20 years, having ALL that burden AFTER your wedding & reception is A LOT. Come on y'all. The venue was pretty. We had a nice evening.

Absolutely beautiful view of Tampa bay, lush plantings, beautiful patio with booth style seating all the way along the perimeter. They have a white gazebo we used for our ceremony that is in off center of the garden overlooking the bay. They have a small building with bathrooms, prep kitchen and area for seating. We opted to have everything outside but had the inside building available for those that wanted to escape the heat. It was so fun coming back sharing this special space with our kids and reliving the most magical memories.

The ambiance is beautiful, the service is always excellent, and the food is consistently delicious. They also have amazing coffee and a great drink selection.

I always enjoy bringing guests here, and I'll definitely be back again!

This place went downhill. The classic high tea for $44 is outrageous. Nothing classic about it…read more They give you a sandwich with a mini hamburger bun, the scones aren't traditional at all and taste like blueberry cake batter. It's way way way overpriced for what it is. I asked the server if the tea was loose leaf and she said yes so I asked for more hot water. So she brings a pot of hot water. Turns out the teapot didn't have any tea in it so the staff just don't think. The server tried to take the order by memory and then she couldn't so I had to repeat the entire order so she could write it down. Then she still forgot to add a main course, so that came out late. When I was working in a restaurant I would have at least offered to pay for the coffees because of that kind of mistake. I asked another server for the bill. Instead of walking 5 ft to the till he wonders around the entire restaurant trying to find our server. I just don't get it. It would have saved myself and him time. Everything is just way overpriced for what it is. Nothing blew us away and there isn't anything we couldn't make at home for a fraction of the price and better. We have been to this place before but it will have to take a lot to convince me to try this place again.

The rooftop is perfect to mingle with a spectacular view of Armature works, Hillsborough River and the downtown skyline. I'm not sure if each client individually gets to choose the caterer or if it is standard when planning the event but the catering was phenomenal. I unfortunately did not get the name of who was servicing the event but the walk around appetizers and finger foods, the huge array of cheeses and meats for the charcuterie board and the buffet dinner were really good. The drinks were also flowing, service was very friendly. Inside is a well air conditioned meeting space with a projector and a decent amount of chairs. The restroom is conveniently located for both the rooftop and conference area. If you're looking to hold a small to medium-sized professional event, this is an excellent location, I hope I get invited to another one again soon.

I come over here all the time on my nightly walk and people watch. I also have been to Splitsville a bunch for bowling and eating. The LightHaus Beer Garden is at the middle of the wharf and is a nice place to watch a game, catch a beer, and enjoy the Tampa weather. Sundays are usually the best day to come here because then you can watch the cruise boats sail away. The Tampa sign is right next to here. There's not a giant Sparkman Wharf chair that you can get your picture at. Oh, and don't sleep on JoToro. I like getting Mexican food over there and it's very cheap. Once again, another great spot to people watch.

Didn't know beforehand that many of the eateries are carry out only with no air conditioning, which was not so fun on a sweltering July day. While there are a few restaurants where you can sit indoors, we wanted the food hall freedom of choosing from different vendors, so ate outside. The food options were fewer than expected, the food that we chose wasn't very good. and overall there was no liveliness to the place (no music, no families, no outdoor games etc) on the day we went.
