Same deal but boneless wings over fries!! Blue cheese for dipping, and had Garlic Parmesan WINGS!! Beer is good as always! Service was dope as always! And live music was happening! I love live music! No further questions....
This was by far our favorite brewery in Tarpon Springs on our vacation! Their IPAs were juicy & yummy! The food was BOMB!! We loved the outdoor seating & stage area for the band! Even had a little grass area where you could bring kiddos or pups to play! We also got some T-Shirts, hats, & pint glasses to take home that are our fav! Can't wait to go back!
This is the best smash burger! It's so good it's pressed and crispy on the edges and the bun is buttered. It's delicious all the way around even the pickles are delicious.
Erin H was super rude. Not friendly whatsoever. Wanted to decline my service animal into her establishment and he had a service vest on. We were standing in the bar with my service animal and the staff brought out multiple bar stools from outside (because it was cold) for other patrons. Not once did they offer my husband and I seat.....oh wait, yes they did, once they saw we were ready to leave. This place is not accommodating for service animals. What a shame
What a great experience we had! It's mainly outdoor seating and there is a huge play area for kids and a stage for bands. You order and pay from a QR code on your table, then they bring the food to your table. You have to walk up to the bar to order your drinks separately. Neat concept! Our server was very friendly. The food came out really quick and was very good but burgers a bit on the dry side. We got the Brie app- could have been more melty. Then we split the smash burger and brewsky burger. We preferred the Brewsky. Daughter got the Nashville Hot sliders and it was good portions. Their red ale beer was fantastic.
The ambiance is amazing Very chill laid back, we were with our friends and their baby and there was plenty of space on the turf for the baby to play and everyone was super pleasant and chill. The food was really good, I highly recommend the pretzels with beer cheese and shrimp tacos. All the beer is really good, the juice lord was really good , even people who don't love iPas will enjoy it! The service was also amazing, everyone was very attentive and pleasant!
Still the best in food specials that include a beer! Tres Hazy Boi is my all time favorite here. Friendly staff and great indoor or outdoor space. See you Soon!
Great downtown Tarpon brewery with good beers, great food, great open park like back yard with an out door stage for live music! Weekday lunch specials with changing daily entree (Tuesday mahi tacos, Wednesday smash burger, Thursday boneless wings) with home made chips, and beer of choice of draft beer for $12 is a great deal.
Unless you want to be accosted by peoples screaming kids on your Friday night, this isn't the place for you. When I think of a brewery or going out for drinks I don't think about hanging out with families. Kids everywhere! With that being said, it was pretty packed with a live singer out back where most of the kids were. The food is pretty good and they have an ok selection of beer. Another thing to be aware of is how early they close. 10pm on a Friday with everybody being gone by 9:30 Food - I had the brewsky burger with mushrooms, onions, and beer cheese on a brioche bun which was really good. And a beer flight but no German beer as their paper menu had. It was just ok a bit pricey at $15 for 4
Okay, so this is a cool place for multiple reasons. It's family friendly, PET friendly and it's local in Tarpon Springs! Food and drinks are great but my only negative is there isn't a full liquor bar. Just beer and wine.
Excellent brewery just off of the main strip in Tarpon Springs. This place is truly one of the better breweries in the area because of four things they do really well. What are those things? Well hang on...and keep reading! imma tell ya! First---beer. They have a yuge selection of beers. Wide variety, and they are constantly brewing new ones to take place of the old ones. Guest taps, too! Graciously offering sample tastes to make sure you get what you like...nothing worst than getting a pint of a brew ya just don't like. Second---FOOD. I think every good brewery needs good foods...and man they do it will. We've had burgers, we have boneless wings, waffle fries, grilled portobellos, etc. EVERYTHING was delish. idk what kinda magic theyre brewing up in the back...but its working!! Third--atmosphere. The inside is cozy, but comfy in case our awesome florida weather is taking a day off. For those perfect sunny FL days, the outdoor beer garden is one of the best. AMPLE seating all around, lawn games, and a truly ingenious stage made of a storage container that has a fold down deck. Super cool....and they usually have some really talented musicians for just the right ambiance. Fourth--and not last---STAFF. From the GM, to the brewers, to the servers....these are some of the best. They're friendly, attentive, make great suggestions, and always on point. This can make or break a place...and for Sponge City....they're doing our town proud. If you have only time for ONE brewery to hit in Tarpon Springs....STOP HERE. You will NOT be disappointed. Daily specials Tue-Thur where they have tacos, burgers or boneless wings (depending on the day)...so many reason to come here, if you don't, you must struggle with the English language. Get an interpreter...and GET HERE!!
Great place to hang out with friends! It's conveniently located in downtown Tarpon. The parking spots can be difficult to find, you just have to circle around a bitand park on side streets. We love coming for the specials, especially the $12 smash burger on Wed. Their outdoor area is great, though the inside is pretty spacious too. Very chill atmosphere. read more

Food, beer, atmosphere. Great beer selection and fantastic live music. A good brewery that's welcoming, family and pet friendly. Even on a cold rainy day, they moved the music inside and had such a talented and entertaining singer, he matched the relaxing daytime vibe perfectly. They have good bites on the menu. I do recommend the smash burgers. According to the beef eater in my party, they were amazing! lol Our rainy weekend in Tarpon Springs was definitely made better stopping for a flight at Sponge City Brewery. read more

First and foremost...Sponge City Brewing has a very nice variety of beers and they are EXCELLENT. My favorite was the "Chocolate, Orange" porter, Campfire Songs. My wife who is a huge IPA fan absolutely LOVED the "RYE,RYE,RYE,RYE,RYE,RYE IPA". Norman the brew master was behind the bar as well and overheard me talking about my desire for dark beers and gave me a nice sample of their newly brewed stout. GREAT! Caitlyn the bartender was EXTREMELY nice and welcoming. She took great care of us. The vibe is very nice. Whether inside or outside their was just a nice, relaxing ambiance on a beautiful sunny Florida day. Plenty of tables with some green space and a few outdoor games for some fun as well as very conducive for children. Not too many breweries around have their own kitchen, Sponge City does and it too is EXCELLENT. We were there on a Thursday. As of this review, Thursdays is a $12 special for their boneless wings over waffle fries AND a beer! You can't beat that. Especially considering that the wings and waffles were VERY GOOD and large enough to share for two if needed. Bottom line, one of the newer & nicer breweries in the area that you ABSOLUTELY must try. DO NOT pass this one by, either on Alt.19 or even going on the Pinellas bike trail, just a block away. read more

Opening weekend! Crazy busy and good for them. It was a full patio out front and in the back when we got there, not to mention a full bar and only one table left open. Just starting, they had 5 of their own brews on tap, and the rest are guest taps, which some were already kicked. Talking to the beertender sounds like a successful Friday night. They do offer food that you can order right from your phone, but we didn't partake in with this visit. Can't wait to see what is up next and wish them the best of luck! read more

I passed this place various times, only passed it up because of the limited parking. Finally stopped in and it was so good! There's a few tables inside, mainly set up for the outside. Instead of menus, they have QR codes you scan with your phone to view it. There was a band playing when we went. The service is very fast. read more
