The Floridian Social

It’s Manhattan Season — Here’s Where to Order One Around Tampa This February | Eater

"One guarantee when you walk through the Romanesque entryway to Floridian Social: you’ll never have the same experience twice. This historic music venue dates back to 1924, and today serves as a microcosm for the artsy, quirky, funky world that is St. Pete. One night you may walk in and hear big band swing music, the next is reggae, the next burlesque and Motown. You might even catch a comedy rock band if you show up on the right night, which is exactly what makes trips here such an adventure. One thing you can always count on is a menu of cocktails you’ve probably never seen before at the big center bar. Whiskey lovers would do well to try the Intern SZN, with Angel’s Envy, pine nut, Pedro Ximinez sherry, saline, and fig." - Matthew Meltzer
