Came here with a large group for a late lunch when they weren't super busy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It caught our eye while visiting the area because it has the coolest outside decor and vibe and looked like quintessential Florida. It has a unique and eclectic ambiance with indoor and outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was efficient and friendly, and overall I personally enjoyed most the food I ordered. I got the cold brew to drink as I needed a little pick-me-up, love that they had this on the menu. I ordered the spiced mahi mahi which came with rice and a seasonal vegetable. The rice was pretty bland, but it was cooked well and I used the citrus sauce from the fish to flavor the rice and it worked nicely. The market veggies were squash and cucumber which had no seasoning and were a bit rubbery. Loved the flavors of the fish with the sauce, but it was a bit dry on the inside. Not terribly, but more than I would have expected, adding in the sauce helped. The french fries were the bigger kind, which I love, and they were really good. The onion rings were almost all breading and the onion made up a very small portion. The calamari was also very small and mostly fried breading instead of the actual seafood inside. Overall, they were very good at accomodating our large group, lovely service and staff. The group concensus on food was hit or miss depending on what people ordered. So, I'd say definitely check them out and try the menu so you can decide for yourself. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Three Birds Tavern is a cute little spot close to the crescent heights neighborhood.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I live in Crescent heights and it was about a 20 min walk. Very easy walk on an October evening especially if you plan to enjoy a few drinks (which I did). I ordered the blackened grouper with veggies and I subbed mashed potatoes instead of rice. It was really good! The veggies were garlicky and full of flavor and the fish was cooked just right! My friend had the buffalo chicken sandwich and had no complaints. Service was friendly and fast! Overall my friend and I had a positive experience. read more

We spent the morning across the way at the children's museum Great Exploration. I made reservations but we didn't have any problem getting an o yr side booth. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The weather was beautiful to be able to eat outdoors.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I chose the black and blue burger while my daughter had the chicken Parmesan. We chose to have my grandson share our meals since their kids menu was $14-a steep price. Our server was good although we had to ask to have our drinks refilled. I liked how the sweet potato fries stay hot in the metal holder. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Portions are normal and the location is nice-plenty of seating outside a some inside as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Ordered some wings for takeout for Super Bowl Sunday and glad I did! I got mild and dry rub- even the mild was spicy for me personally (I'm a baby) but was sharing with my friends and they loved them. I liked the dry rub wings and would definitely order them again. They were quick to be ready as well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Would love to actually dine in because it seemed like a great vibe![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I was craving a hamburger and wanted to try a new place, so I chose Three Birds. I have never ordered a $21+ hamburger, but I thought that at that price, I was in for a treat. I ordered a bacon burger with blue cheese, fries and coleslaw. When my order was delivered, there were no fries (I was not charged for them. The coleslaw was not in a container, but was piled next to the burger, which soaked the bottom of the burger so that I had to eat it with a knife and fork. The burger was not worth the price. It was not as good as McDonalds, or Checkers. The coleslaw was okay, but the whole experience was ruined, and I only ate the food because I spend close to $25 for a soggy burger and coleslaw, and I couldn't afford to order another meal. Won't be ordering there again. read more

Pros: * [[HIGHLIGHT]]Dog friendly patio[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] * [[HIGHLIGHT]]Patio ambiance overall! Loved.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] * Shepherd's pie * Asian BBQ wings * Cheesecake Cons: * Extreme wait time after being sat for a Monday evening. Maybe 10 minutes in, host brought us waters and told us our server was with a very large party inside (which is fine, just interesting). After we met our server and got our order in, cocktails took an extraordinarily long time to come out. Cocktails, appetizer and entrees unfortunately all did come out at once. It was clunky. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had envisioned being able to have a drink on the patio prior to our apps and entrees.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] * Espresso martini, I typically love these and did not enjoy this one at all. (To the point I asked for it to be removed from my tab). I was originally challenged on this since I had tried it... my drink was brought to the bar and back, but they did accommodate my request. This part was a strange experience as it was clear I simply tried it vs drinking a lot, etc. * Communication. After placing an order for a wedge salad we were told a long time from placing order that they were out of them. Server had to return for question on Old Fashioned and how we wanted it made. These are normal occurrences it just seemed to add to our delay a lot. Overall thoughts: [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute/unique place to go out, especially with the dog. I love that they allow dogs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I think I'd be willing to try it maybe once more. Maybe an off night? read more

This place has become a staple for my partner and I. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The outdoor seating is such great vibes and they even provide heaters in the winter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The trees block the view of 4th street.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You can always park at the lake if the lot is full.

I seriously don't get why this place doesn't have five stars. Can I just say the fish and chips and shepherds pie had a tear running down my cheek and my thigh.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They also have a large fireplace in the main dining room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I miss when my ex wife used to run her fingers through my hair while we stoked the fire.

Always a decent place to grab a beer on a patio when the weather is nice and one of the few places I've found that you can get a Carlsberg on tap. We got the hummus plate with veggies. The ratio was a little off and pretty large amount of hummus to the amount of veggies you get which isn't the worst thing. After this we got wings with the Asian bbq sauce (weirdly enough no honey bbq). Not bad and its flavor is based on like a sweet chili sauce before they sprinkle some sesame seeds on. We got a side of the sweet potato fries which was somewhat disappointing to see they don't have the cinnamon butter to dip them. Nonetheless the still were crispy as ever and something you can pretend is healthy while sweating out the beers your having. Net 0 calories right?!? One of my favorite parts about three birds is there is a rotating bread pudding that keeps it fresh. It can be basically anything under the sun, so make sure to ask your bartender what it is. Overall 4/5 would recommend to a friend read more

Solid tavern close to Crescent Lake. They have regular specials and host watch parties and trivia nights. The outdoor space is my favorite because it gives "secret garden" vibes. They have live music and a great atmosphere on the weekends. Food is solid. The shepherds pie is a standout on their menu and their kids meals are very generous. Food: 4/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Overall: 4/5 read more

Great place to grab a casual bite. This was the place my husband and I had our first date 13 years ago, so we came back for our 10 year wedding anniversary. It's not a fancy place, but the food is still good and the drinks were solid. We started with the chicken bites. They were good, not great, but the thai-chili aioli was delicious. My husband really enjoyed it though so he'd probably get it again. I'm a huge fan of their drink list. I got the dirty bird without tabasco, which is just basically a dirty martini with blue cheese olives (vodka) and the cucumber martini. I asked if the espresso martini was sweet and they said yes and recommended the cucumber martini instead. This was a good suggestion and I ended up loving it. For my entree I got a Caesar salad. My husband got the Grilled Beef Tenderloin which came with onion crisps and mashed potatoes. It was pretty good, I would eat it if he gets it again. The Caesar salad was solid. We got the sweet potato fries, because I used to love them, but they are different now. They are still good, but not the same as before, so I'd skip next time. They gave us key lime pie to celebrate our anniversary which I thought was sweet. We brought it home and the next day I thought it was good. It was sweet with a bit of tartness. The graham cracker crust was delicious. They have a parking lot in the back and I bet parking along the street is easy. There really isn't anything else around here, so this is a restaurant you come to just to eat here. I think this is a solid place to grab a bite. It has an interesting menu at reasonable prices and a great drink list. I would come back. read more

This restaurant is nice with tons of outdoor seating. I asked them to turn on the outdoor heater but they said no because it was warm. But it wasn't for me. I ordered calamari but the server didn't put it in so I never received it. The food I did get had a ton of salt. I couldn't believe how salty it was. My wife did enjoy her burger, though. We ordered the bread pudding and it was very good! So good for them. I don't think I'll be back but you should try them out anyway. I think they can do better and probably was just an off night. read more

The place is cool. Very neat patio are and relaxed atmosphere. The Jojos (potato wedges) and jalapeño cheese dip are tasty but expensive. The burgers were a little dry for medium and so much blackened spice it kind of chokes you. The bread pudding and key lime pie were the clear winners as far as food was concerned. Our server was ok, it was at the end of the night (and hour to close) and you could tell he was done and just wanted to get out of there. We waited a long time for drinks to find out they didn't have one) overall, ok. Wouldn't recommend for anything more than dessert. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was not crowded so my husband and I decided to eat dinner here[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Upon arrival we were greeted and seated the waiter was cordial we ordered 2 Long Island drinks they were okay We ordered spicy shrimp as our appetizer and two orders of the steak tips with the sides of mash potatoes and steamed vegetables that order took awhile so we reordered the shrimp . The food was bland and the steak was the size of three golf balls hard to cut and chew for $147.00 was not worth it for the 3 drinks 2 steak tips with sides and of course the dry box cheese cake with chocolate syrup dabbed on top. Please do better for your next patrons the waiter was the best part of the meal we did give him a modest tip. I will post pics soon I have good shots. read more

It's an unbelievable hidden gem in St. Pete. I have passed this place hundreds of times on my bike ride down to Vinoy Park and have seen it a ton advertised on OpenTable. It's a three-minute drive from downtown in such a cute little neighborhood of Crescent Lake. I have now eaten here twice in the last month and a half and will continue to do so with back-to-back incredible meals. It was a cold night last night, but we still ate on the porch, and they had the heaters going, and I almost got too hot. The place is humongous and super open concept. Both times, I have ordered the grouper sandwich, blackened with french fries and a side of ranch, and I haven't been disappointed as this is one of the best grouper sandwiches. I think I've had since moving down here. For dessert, I've gone with the peanut butter pie both times, and it will knock your socks off good. Grouper sandwich: 9.5 Peanut butter pie: 9.7 Scale system 10/10 would be what I want for my last meal 9.9-9.3 driving out of my way to get this 9.2-8.0 like the place and would go back 7.9-7.0 I would come here again if it were presented and don't have anything bad to say 6.9 and below - thanks but no thanks after trying once read more

It was a delicious meal but be aware if you don't like cilantro because there was a ton on the meal but was not mentioned in the menu. My husband had a mushroom gravy burger that he enjoyed, and we ended it with a piece of their authentic and delicious piece of key lime pie. Also, don't forget there is a nice selection of adult beverages on the menu I had a lemonade drink that tasted like a lemon drop. read more

This place is very pretty and unique looking. We really enjoyed our time here and see ourselves coming back for a drink. While the service is attentive and friendly, the food leaves a lot to be desired. We had the calamari for an appetizer and we were both full from all the breading and oil. You could barely taste the actual seafood. We also fish and a burger which weren't much better. This is unfortunate as the vibes here are very welcoming and cocktail menu extensive. This place has all the potential to be a weekly hangout spot if only the food was better. read more

Having been in St. Pete for over a decade I've surprised myself by not visiting this establishment, despite it being of of the few things that's survived in this city. Turns out unfortunately I wasn't missing much. Both the menu and the actual food itself left a lot to be desired. Of all three of us, there just wasn't anything worth taking home. It very much felt like the food had been frozen, quality I could get from a box. I'm guessing sysco. The positive was the cocktail menu, which was lengthy, creative, and had good prices. The outdoor area was cute. This has a tavern bar feel but more family friendly, or at least there were quite a few kids there. I noticed when I was leaving that the inside was completely empty. read more

I hate to be a Karen, but I had lunch there yesterday. I didn't look at the price for lunch sandwiches, (so totally my fault) ...I just assumed a BLT with an egg would be between 9 to12 or so dollars...My bad $18.00 for a BLT with an egg...Are you kidding me? My friend got a small salad, 2 ice teas and a hummus platter. 1 scoop of hummus a few carrots, celery and a few slices of cucumber. 14.00 are you kidding me again. This mediocre meal was 81.00...Ugggg. I know I know I'm being her, but come on for lunch? read more

We're new to St Pete, only having lived here just over a year, so still discovering new places to eat. We'd driven by Three Birds Tavern and it looks so nice we've been wanting to try it. Last week, my man had a business meeting with a group of his colleagues there, & he suggested I come along for the ride to try it out for dinner. Since they have a lot of outdoor seating in a nice back garden, I brought along our dog, Ace, who is extremely social. (We always meet more people when he dines with us, because he's very handsome & has the cutest smile!) I started with a shot of Proper 12 Irish whisky (my fav!), then ordered their Tavern Salad of mixed greens, apple, feta, sunflower seeds with a perfectly dressed citrus vinaigrette, and JoJo's Unpeeled potato wedges which are deep-fried which were crispy & not at all greasy, served with a yummy, house-made beer, jalapeno & cheddar dipping sauce. I was very happy to find the food was delicious, everything fresh-fresh & from scratch. Being outdoors under the trees of a clear Spring evening under huge water oaks made the meal even more delightful. Other people brought their dogs with them, so it was a lovely social visit, too. We have found a new favorite! I was expecting a bar with decent bar food, a place people come to drink. But Three Birds Tavern is a very good restaurant that happens to also be a well-stocked bar with fine quality brands. Nice combo! The service was excellent, too: everyone from the host who seated us, to the bartender, to our waitress. Kudos! We are definitely going to need back! read more

I used to love this place, but will never go back after sitting at a table for 15 minutes while servers walked by. I finally flagged one down and he acted like he was aggravated. [[HIGHLIGHT]]On this occasion there were many empty tables and the place was not at all busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We left. On the way out we spoke with 2 servers who were sitting by the hostess stand having a nice chat. We asked if they were on duty and they said yes, then blamed the hostess for not letting them know we had been seated. Anyhow, here is another good reason not to visit the house of idiots: Pinellas County, FL, restaurants cited for the most inspection violations in July 2025 Three Birds Tavern (1492 4 St N, St Petersburg) -- 25 violations (July 23, 2025) read more

I wanted to badly to be able to give this place a glowing 5 star review. I've lived in St. Pete all my life and somehow managed to never eat here, yet I've always heard great things. I even experienced many of them myself -- the great parking, ample indoor and outdoor seating, televisions mounted on the walls for convenience, great location, friendly service staff, great menu with numerous options depending on your mood, the smoky fragrance from the fire pit warming up the air around you when seated outside and more! The coconut shrimp came out first as an appetizer. They looked and smelled great. They might have been a touch over done. However, I personally loved the extra crunch when you bite into them. Here's the thing though, the sauce is a necessity, not an extra. Meaning if you eat them without the sauce they're average at best. However, the food was overwhelmingly plain. I was so excited to dig into my Three Little Pigs omelet. Yet, when it arrived and I took my first bite, it was lacking in the flavor department. It didn't taste "bad," but it didn't taste like much of anything at all. They've got the food presentation down, everything looks good. But the taste is truly lacking and I think that's a problem considering the business they're in. read more

If you didn't know, Three Birds Tavern does $5 Martinis every Thursday and yes, it does get dangerous because it is strong! You can select different types of Martinis from espresso to dirty to fruity, you name it. Can't ask for a better deal than that! The patio outside is the vibe but the two times I've been here, I've been bitten by a mosquito. I was actually surprised that the food was pretty good! Defineilty met my expectations especially having 3 1/2 stars and being a casual gastropub. I will always come back here for $5 martinis.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a cute restaurant that we have passed a number of times[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We decided to give it a try on a Tuesday night. It will be a one and done for us. The chicken dinner I had was ok but the grilled chicken breast was so small it must have come from an anorexic chicken. The mash potatoes were more like creamy potatoes. My wife had the Shepherd's pie. Big mistake. On top of that it upset her stomach all night. The service was good but that is probably because the place was empty. I'll be nice and give it 3 stars. read more
