Night Life

Ybor City is a unique historical district of Tampa that truly comes to life at night, offering a variety of edgy, exotic clubs and restaurants to choose from. If you're just interested in the historical aspect, and perhaps a run-in with their adorable native roosters/chickens that roam the streets, then I would recommend a day visit. The district is also known for their Cuban cigars and breweries.

Coffee

I've got high standards for coffee, so you won't be disappointed with these recommendations. There is of course your Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts, and McDonald's nearby, but if you're looking for a warm & cozy atmosphere combined with a quality cup of Joe, check out these coffee spots!
D.I. Coffee bar has the best coffee in Tampa! Trust me, I've tried them all! They use Panther coffee in all of their beverages and sell the cutest knick-knacks in a welcoming, laid-back atmosphere. I highly recommend their lattes.
