Bootleggers Brewing Co. - Tampa, Florida

Jessica Valentin

Several of us ladies from our Tampa Bay GirlFrendz group came here for Thursday trivia night they were having and was in a great atmosphere.

I had a some flatbread pizza which was really good. We met the owner and he was very friendly. Very nice man. He also brought us over some stuffed mushrooms to try and they were absolutely yummy!

Beer was brewed on point. Several options on tap.

Will revisit!

This brewery is simply incredible! The owner is super cool and always welcoming, making everyone feel at home. The staff are friendly and go out of their way to ensure you have a great time.

The beer? Absolutely exquisite! Every option is crafted to perfection. And the food? It’s just as amazing, with flavors that perfectly complement the drinks.

If you want great beer, delicious food, and an awesome vibe, this place is a must!

I really like this place. Haven't been since they moved from their Brandon location over to east Tampa. The other place was great, but more of a brewing equipment / ingredients place, that started brewing next door. At the new place, its a full on craft brew experience. Their beers are awesome, their craft kitchen doesn't disappoint. Employees are awesome too. I'll be back for sure!

Mythical brewers! Love the beverages, especially the new passion fruit drink! Don’t miss the kitchen the food is outstanding! Amazing team in there! Flatbreads, nachos, and specially seasoned wings which are absolutely to die for! Stop by and chat with one of the lovely bartenders and give the kitchen a chance, you might be surprised with what they bring out for you!

I’ve come here twice now and the flatbed… perfect! Crispy and soft at the same time. I had the BBQ chicken one, not overly saucy the mozzarella is melty the chicken is spiced to perfection. Paired with any one of their over 24 craft brews and you’re in for a treat. The atmosphere is stellar, there’s a loft upstairs. Definitely a new favorite!

We picked Bootleggers based on its location. We stopped to try the beer and we loved the variety with a couple outstanding brews, those being the Vienna Vixen and the Hefeweizen. We also ate dinner and enjoyed the meal. The flatbread pizza was excellent. A larger portion would have been better for dinner but the taste was so good. The Everything Salad was good as an entree. The only thing that disappointed me was the chicken we requested to be added to the salad. The meat was very salty. Salt should stay out of salads period. I understand a little being in meat, but the chicken was definitely over salted. We left with a very good impression of Bootleggers. The taproom is clean and modern. The bartender was great, being as friendly as can be. He addressed us as Sir and Ma'am and was super polite with every exchange. We want to visit again and try more of the beers.

Staying in the area and decided to give Bootleggers Brewing Co. a try. I’m torn on giving this a 4 or a 5. The beer was solid to very good; the 9% Cranberry Saison (farmhouse ale) being my favorite. The IPAs were good too but not at the same level of excellence. The pretzel is huge and was very good although a bit dry in spots. The atmosphere is good for being in a strip mall type setting. Maybe coming off hours is what killed it a bit. The woman behind the bar was very friendly and had a keen eye on refills so she deserves five stars alone. If you use the men’s room just be careful washing your hands as the sink is dangerously close to the door. I’m always passing through the general area so if I stop by again I may update my rating.

So glad we made this stop! Food was delicious. The pretzel was perfectly warm on a chilly day. The plating of food was inviting. We had an Italian Grinder, Flatbread and the soft pretzel. The singer was fantastic. Staff continued to check on our table multiple times. Root beer was refreshing, too.
