Went on NYE. Heard the food was good but kitchen was closed. They told us right away . So, no harm , no foul. I get it, people need time off. So we stayed for their beers which were fantastic! Service was decent too. We will definitely return here soon. Recommend the Peanut butter porter and the Red ale. The blonde ale was great too! read more

The IPA was a great choice. Great place to come and watch the hockey game. Pets are welcome outside on the deck and it's kid friendly. read more

Great beer. Incredible atmosphere. Some of the most amazing sandwiches you'll ever have. The staff is superb. No notes. An incredible place to eat, drink, and hang out. A true Riverview gem. read more

This is one of my favorite places after a long week of work. The staff is very friendly and always helpful. Even though the place gets very crowded, they have many seats inside and outside, and they try to take the orders as fast they can. It can get a bit loud but is still a very good ambiance. I tried the G'boy, a very refreshing and tasty IPA. Also, I ordered the Cuban sandwich. It was delicious! The pork was well seasoned, and the bread was very crunchy. I love it! read more

The food and beer were outstanding. Had a great time sampling different beers. Great atmosphere.

Stopped in for a couple of beers and was not disappointed. They had a good selection to choose from. Ended up drinking a Cheeky Blonde and also The Red. Both were great! Great service and a cool vibe. Will definitely return. read more

Fantastic local beers and a friendly neighborhood feel! I spent an hour here with my laptop and a beer in the corner as the place slowly filled up with the dinner crowd. Families with kids. A few couples that looked like dates. And then the local "run" club arrived in their fluorescent tshirts and enthusiasm. I was able to find a beer I liked from the menu and the bartender provided the wifi password. A quiet corner (at least until the place filled up) and it was a very pleasant time. Next visit, I'll have to get something to eat as it all looked great. [Review 20278 overall - 1780 in Florida - 1255 of 2023.] read more

Very packed on a Tuesday night for trivia night. Had a hard time finding seating. The good? I ate the best Cuban Sandwich I've ever had. The meh? I thought some of the other sandwiches and drinks were a little overpriced. I had the blackberry cider, which was amazing, but $7 for a can? That's a bit much in my opinion. read more

Excellent beer and amazing atmosphere. Try the Cheeky Blonde! The food is really great. They have a long list of hearty sandwiches and some salads too. The best part of Leaven is the staff they! They are the best around. read more

Clean, calm atmosphere. The food is delicious! I've never ordered something and not liked it. I ordered a Cheeky Blonde while I was waiting for an online order that did not get pushed through because I their iPad wasn't working so the beer was complimentary while I waited and I truly appreciated that. The staff is phenomenal, the food is delicious. Area is clean, restrooms are clean, I've only been here during the week, but they have advertised trivia nights that I will be checking back in on. Recommend!! read more

This is a nice little brewery nestled in a shopping center, and luckily it's about 4 mins from my place (so we will be regulars!). There are games and a really nice selection of beers. I got the cheeky blonde, which I enjoyed and my boyfriend got a couple IPAs. We also got the pot roast Sammie (they ran out of the French dip) and it was very delicious! I was pleasantly surprised with how good the sandwich was! My only complaint is that I wish they had some nice homemade chips or something other than a bag of lays as the side. Overall, a nice experience! read more

We came in the night of a storm and it was still busy. We ordered at the counter a flight, pretzel, 1/2 cuban and Capresse Sandwich. We started with the Cheeky and Taylor cheeky. The Cheeky was ok but the Taylor Cheeky was a bit too fruit flavored. The Sunny was also ok but we really liked the Red. We liked it so much we took 6 home:). The pretzel came out with our lunch so the cheese congealed a bit before we could finish it. The pretzel itself was good. The hall cuban was ok but not great. The Capresse sandwich was a surprise to find at a brewery but good. The seating area is not real big and can see how it might be crowded on the weekend. The tables were clean and the staff was nice. If we are in the area again would try a different sandwich as they were out of Turkey bacon, and one of the salads. read more

My wife and I both ordered flights and we shared a sandwich and an appetizer. The food was excellent and we enjoyed all eight beers. We love to support local breweries, especially those who serve food. read more

Been here 3 times now. Beers are good with several choices/styles to pick from. First time we went the food was ok. Mostly sandwiches and appetizers. I had a Caesar salad which I felt the chicken was out of a bag, not freshly cooked. The other 2 times I went for lunch and had a half sandwich. Both were plentiful and tasty. FYI It is dim inside and mostly self serve (order at the bar and they bring food if ordered or go back to the bar for more drinks). Friendly staff. Will return. read more

This is a favorite neighborhood brewery. The beers change and have options that everyone will surely enjoy. Their Italian sandwiches are way better than they ought to be. We crave them. read more

This place doesn't look like much from the outside, and I honestly started to doubt the Yelp reviews when I pulled up to the building... but boy was I surprised. I grew up in Florida and have been to nearly every brewery in the Tampa area, but this one was different. I'm not a big IPA/stout fan, but was able to find not one but TWO draft beers that I absolutely fell in love with - the cheeky blonde and the direct current! Both were light, crispy and refreshing - but didn't have a harsh aftertaste! For the food... you literally would not expect food at a brewery to actually be GOOD. Edible? Yes. But good? Few and far between. But when I tell y'all, this was the best grilled cheese I have EVER had the pleasure of stuffing in my face, I mean it! I just had to order the whole hog and my taste buds couldn't believe it. The bread was made in house, the meat and cheese were fresh as could be, it was a match made in heaven. Now I have to try every sandwich on the menu; I'm hooked! Definitely a must try if you're in the area!!! 15/10 read more

What a great local spot! They also have some good which I didn't order however was happy to see they did have a menu! Great brewery if your looking for a chill spot to hang with friends or watch a game. read more

Leven Brewing was my go to Brewery when I lived in the area. I have gone there since they opened several years ago. Their Red is my favorite. This is a great place to bring the family or to watch a game. They are pet friendly on the patio and they serve up some tasty dishes as well. It is a small venue and has a loyal fan base so if you are planning a visit during a game or on the weekend you will want to get there early read more

Super friendly staff and great space. They also have wine for those that don't drink beer. Have to try the Key West Express. It is a husband and wife as the owners. The wife popped in to introduce herself she was very nice. They are just getting started but it is good beer, check them out. read more

Nice place to stop for a cold one and maybe a snack. They have a variety of sandwiches and appetizers on their menu. I tried their Kolsch. It was light and refreshing. I enjoyed the atmosphere. It was laid back and friendly. It almost had a coffee shop feel as I noticed folks at tables with books and laptops. I'd like to return to try some other beers on tap. read more

Great beer, good place to hang out. Staff were friendly and attentive. We took some beer home because it was so good.

Hilarious bartender right from the start! Great suggestions for us to try and knowledgeable conversation during our visit! Who doesn't want to try a beer named Tattoo Face?!?! Our first visit we had a flight with Requested Berliner, Old School, Totes Chocolate Goats, Tattoo Face. On our second visit we had Velvet Pajamas, The Maple Kind?, Star-Crossed. read more

My first impression of Leaven Brewing is that this is a family oriented neighborhood hang out.  There were babies, kids, teens and fur babies all with their respective beer lovers.  Upbeat music and the venue is loud.  Was here on trivia night which might have added to the eclectic and electrified atmosphere. There is a small concrete bar where the taps are. Plenty of room inside including tables and a lounge area with leather couch.  They have a loyalty club called founders.  They have lockers for the founders with 4 personalized mugs per locker.   It's a really cool concept. On my visit here I did order food and it was decent.  I ordered a steak taco and a pork taco.  Both were great.  Also ordered chips and Queso which I loved.  They put chives in the Queso.  It was really good. There is beer, wine and some guest bottles and cans.  There were a good number of people ordering a Black Widow cider.  I guess this is popular here. The BEER: Snozberry Lemonade... berliner Weiss 4.1% ABV... light, lemony, with a hint of raspberry, or is that snozberry? Very good. Is Good Kolsch 4.4% ABV... also very good for a Kolsch... light, refreshing G'Boy Bailey IPA 7.7% ABV... a decent balanced IPA Florida Boy IPA 7.7% ABV... the G'boy with orange. This one is special. This is phenomenal.  Leaven brewing has good beer and a cool family friendly atmosphere.  The food was good as well.  I could see visiting here again the next time I am in the area. read more

Great beers on tap - lots of variety. Very dog friendly, with a nice outdoor seating area in front. Service was friendly and attentive.

Great food! Great atmosphere! Different way of running a restaurant (order, sit, food delivered, if you want another drink, you have to get back in line), but somewhat efficient. Don't open a tab because the line is long to close it. P.S. this outing was on July 4th and the place was packed!!! read more

A cool little brewery tuced away in a Riverview strip mall. We met a group of friends here for drinks and sandwiches. I don't even like beer and I was able to find one I liked, a tart berry beer. They recently began offering food and have some sandwiches on the menu along with specials. I had a Cuban and my husband had an Italian. Both were delicious. Very large portions. I couldn't even eat half of the sandwich and saved the other half for my lunch the next day. Friendly and attentive staff. The brewery was very clean too. Highly recommended. read more

A fun place, seems to cater to a family crowd. We walked in on a Saturday evening, and I commented to my wife, "Is this a kids bar?" The beers we tried were good: Quaker Goats oatmeal stout and Cheeky Blonde. We didn't stay too long, but enjoyed our time and beverages here. read more

We went to play trivia on a Tuesday evening. It was LOUD! There was no noise reduction in the ceiling or floor. I ordered a ham and cheese sandwich from the limited menu and a Pretzyl with beer cheese. Both were delicious! It was a walk-up serve yourself setup. The beer was good. My husband doesn't drink and he ordered a diet soda. It came in a bottle with no free refills. We really enjoyed the type of trivia but prefer a quieter atmosphere. read more

Nice place, staff is very friendly. Beer is pretty damn good and the Cuban sandwich is excellent. I just wish they had servers to come to the tables instead of making you come inside to the counter to order. I was there with my dog and couldn't go back inside to order a second beer... read more

Great service the minute we walked in. Tried a couple beers. As a non beer drinker, I found one I loved. They have wine! My 1/2 French dip was amazing from the crusty bread to the auj. Hubby had a spicy Italian sandwich and my taste was super flavorful. Loved it all. Great local vibe. read more
