Mighty Fine

Mighty Fine is my go-to spot for burgers! I almost always get the patty melt with waffle fries, and it’s absolutely delicious every single time. The patty melt is perfectly cooked and packed with flavor, and the waffle fries are crisp and addictive. I also have to mention the pickle chips — they’re super thin, extra tasty, and such a nice touch. Consistently great food and a place I can always count on for a satisfying meal.

I can’t express how much I love this place, it is one of my favorite hidden gems of Tampa. The food is delicious, the vibe of the bar is low key and the beer is excellent making it one of a kind. If you haven’t been, I highly recommend the burger or the chicken sandwich coupled up with an order of fried pickles. Food is 10/10, service is a 10/10. The experience of being here, sun shining and garage doors open cannot be beat. Looking forward to next time.

Disclosure. I did photography for the venue. However. That does not and will never skew my review of said place. With that aside. This is an amazing neighborhood bar with eats. I am very critical of the simplicity of food. Specifically chicken. Their chicken tenders were amazing. Moist “I know some of y’all hate that word🤣🤣🤣” so let me say it again. “ Moist” 😂. All jokes aside. Solid vibes. Great service. Not because of me. I saw it first hand. As a photographer. I notice that everything. The service was on point. Albeit a small, very small kitchen. They produced. And kept in sync. I will definitely visit as a patron myself tbh. Great place. Great vibes. No liquor. However. Great selection of beers and wine. Trust. This is the place for the area. 💯

Mighty Fine is a must-visit burger spot located inside Late Start Brewery in Downtown Tampa. They serve up the best smash burgers in town — crispy edges, juicy centers, and super fresh ingredients. You can also grab fries or breakfast tacos, and everything is made to order with care. Even though it’s inside a brewery, the atmosphere is very family-friendly with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. It’s a great spot to bring the kids or meet up with friends. The staff is quick, welcoming, and always on point. If you're looking for amazing burgers in a laid-back, family-friendly setting, Mighty Fine is it.

Date. 5Jul25 Time. 7pm Food. Got two single smash burgers and fried pickles. The burgers were a bit salty but the smash part lived up to expectations. Drinks. A wide variety of beer, wine etc. Atmosphere. Open seating, a bit loud and there is outdoor seating. Bartenders were very nice and the wait was not long. Time to get food. After ordering they give you a pager. It took about 7 minutes to get the food. Location. It’s a bit out of the way in downtown Tampa. We parked by Morgan’s cove, paid 10 bucks for parking in the lot across Morgan’s cove. The walk to Mighty Fine was 13 minutes. Opinion. Definitely solid smash burgers worth a try.

Place is gas. Fried Pickles are the best I’ve had. Their Waffle fries shit on Shake Shack - never liked them until I had them here. Desert was fire too. Gonna see if they do triples next time cause the patties are super thin.

Super cute spot. Great vibes, friendly bartenders, and some tasty bar food options. 100% will be back to try the breakfast out. I am always looking to try new things, and really enjoyed the fried saltines with pimento cheese. The burger was delicious and reasonably priced. Fries are extra, but it’s a big portion.

The headline in the Tampa Bay Times review of this restaurant and brewery read, “Is this Tampa’s best smashburger?” Chef Nathan Hardin and Late Start Brewery co-founders Jordan Copher and Tyler Sankey are behind the brewery, coffee shop and restaurant, which opened in September on the corner of East Cass and Governor streets. Now, what was once a graffiti-covered building has quickly evolved into one of the downtown area’s most unique all-day spots to drink and dine. Inside the two-toned bright blue building, mid-century modern meets Old Florida decor with mint green and light pink accents and a dark wood slatted backsplash. Guests line up at the long terrazzo-top bar to place their orders and a selection of tables, both inside and out on the shaded corridor, provide ample space for sitting. The burgers are outstanding, the Cincinnati chili dog is delish and you don’t want to skip the fried bologna or fried pickles. Be sure to pair it with one of their house-brewed porters. Parking: Limited spots in front on Cass Street. Better spots on adjacent Governor Street.

I stopped by on a Friday for lunch and it was almost already full inside. I had no idea this place even existed and I've lived in downtown Tampa for almost 3 years. I sat at the bar and it's quite roomy. A bunch of people were here on their laptops apparently sipping on cocktails and working at noon on Friday. The menu consists of Burgers/Dogs/Birds and the other half consists of Snacks & Such. There is also a backside to the menu with Early Morning Stuff, but I missed the cutoff time. I decided to order a $11.50 Classic Boi Double Burger. Whoa, totally unexpected. It's basically like a Steak N Shake Burger, but way better. Tons of flavor, juices, cheese, and a well tasting patty. I loved it. Then, I had the $13 Quarter Cheese Patty Melt. I love a great grilled cheese and this was a grilled cheese with a burger in the middle. Very cheesy and all of the flavors mixed together perfectly. I thought this was better than the burger, but it was very close. I'll definitely be back to try more food items. I thought this was just a bar to drink at, but man the food was very unexpectedly delicious! Very little parking, and kind of on the skirts of downtown. I'll be back!

It was a cute spot, solid smash burger, partner had the Coney Island dog, we shared fried pickles. Burger 5/5 Dog 4/5 Fried pickles 2/5, love fried pickles but these were far too salty for us. The varying sauces? Well, I could just drink those, so good. It was, shall I say, mighty fine.

Fun little bar/restaurant for a burger and beer. I took the family here for a weeknight dinner. My kids were the only kids there, but it was fine. Very kid-friendly menu with burgers, chicken nuggets, and plenty of different bottled sodas. I tried the patty melt, and the whole family shared fried pickles and french fries. I also got to try one of my daughter's chicken nuggets. Everything was delicious. The patty melt was too big for me, but for a person with a good appetite, it's a good deal. The beers are a lot of fun. I tried the mango Thai tea sour and also the guava gose sour. Both were delicious, but I preferred the guava sour. I had a sip of my husband's pilsner, and that was also a good if basic choice. The setting is a little loud (indoors), but you can sit outdoors if you prefer. You order at the bar, and you pick up from the counter. Bar staff is friendly and prompt. Parking is a bit of a pain in the area, but there is street parking a few blocks away if you can't get a spot in their lot.

Got the patty melt for the first time and oh boy, it's going to be so tough deciding between a burger and a patty melt in the future. Everything at Mighty Fine is just so good. The sourdough was toasted to perfection and the smashburger patties were massive. Love, love, love!

Very cool atmosphere. Nice outdoor seating area with games. Cool vibes. Delicious beer brewed here. Came here for lunch and beer. Best burgers in Tampa. Loved the smash burger (deluxe boi) and the patty melt. Perfectly fried pickles and amazing fries with delicious fry sauce. Does not need salt!

My current review is on the place itself and the food. I cannot comment on the beer, I didn't have a craft or draft. First of all - there's like 5 parking spots. Otherwise, make sure your park mobile app is ready to roll because for $7.49 to park around the building (that was the day rate - like the WHOLE day, no hourly parking was offered on the app) - that was enough to put this on the NO GO list. Not this establishment's issue, but it's a factor. If there's a spot in front (which appears to be a super difficult ask), I'd come back but if not, I'll have a plan B in mind because it's not worth all that to me. Once inside, typical brewery. Decent size, plenty of tables, even outside, which would have been nice if it weren't scorching. Sat inside and checked out the menu. There's several options from burgers to chicken sandwiches... For food and drink, you must go up to the bar and order. Then when you get a buzzer/beeper you'll pick it up on the far right of the counter when it's ready. The food comes in a small metal tray. And there is water in a little jug/dispenser further to the right of the order pick up area. I found the burger to taste ok, but it was thinner and flatter than a steak n shake steakburger. Also, everything is a la carte, so the fries were additional. They were large waffle fries and were pretty good, so I was happy with those. I ordered an NA cider which was sneakily not a traditional cider...it was blackberry flavored and even had apple cider vinegar in it... Not really what I anticipated from the name and description on the menu (I cannot recall), but I guess I could have asked some questions. Overall, the parking initially set the tone for me, unfortunately. The food was decent, although I would have liked a heartier patty in my burger and didn't come with anything else. I guess this place just isn't my cup of tea.

We had such a good time! The place is adorable and has a cute outdoor seating area. If you sit at the bar they take great care of you, or you can order at the counter! Best burger I've ever had. High quality ingredients.

Might Fine absolutely lives up to the name! This spot has that local brewery meets burger dive vibe--in the best way possible. Service was fast and friendly, and the food is delicious. I ordered the Quarter Cheese Patty Melt, and it was everything a great smash burger should be--crispy, cheesy perfection. I also tried the Mimosa Spritz on tap, and it was really good and refreshing -- a must-try if you're looking to pair your meal with something light.

It was really good. Definitely get the hot dog that chili is going to do something to you lol.the service was great people are so nice and welcoming. And I'm in love with there stools at the bar but I did have to move to a table because I need the space of a chair to really get down

What a dope spot! The ambiance gives that old school chic vibe and I'm loving it! The food was MIGHTY GOOD but that patty Melt took it over the top! Smash burgers were good and fulfill the crave. The Sando bites were perfectly crisp and matched well with the sauce and I'm always satisfied with a waffle fry! If you take anything from this review it's the PATTY MELT! Can't wait to come back and try out the chili dog it looked loaded! The selection of beers also needs a shoutout! Any menu with Delirium beer knows wtf they are doing! And props to the designer for their small clothing line!

The ambiance and food were great. You seat yourself and order at the main bar. Ordering kinda in the middle of others enjoying their food and drinks I would change that. Parking very limited due to location so that was an extra cost as well.

Finally got to try this hidden gem burger spot/brewery and let me tell you it did NOT disappoint! I started off with a Spritz drink that was on tap and it tasted great - kind of like a sangria almost. I also ordered the Patty Melt - Coney Dog - Fries and the Fried Pickle Chips! Everything was 10/10 except the hot dog - the burger was super tasty and the bread was toasted perfectly! The waffle fries were crispy and perfectly seasoned and the fried pickle chips were amazing not overly salty and I really enjoyed that they were super thin sliced pickles too! The hot dog I could have done with out and if I can recommend anything is def get a burger, don't waste your time on the hot dog. Service was great and food came up super fast! Cute and cozy inside with bar seating and a few inside and outdoor tables too! Can't wait to go back and try the pimento cheese and dessert! Pro tip: Any of the tap beers or spritz are available to sample! Also ordering is all done at the bar in case your a newbie like me and didn't know :)

Finally checked out mighty fine, and it did not disappoint! the Smashburger was delicious and perfectly cooked. The patties are so thin so I would get double. I'm usually not a fan of pickles, but their fried pickles were a game-changer. To top it off, they have a fantastic selection of beers on tap, which pair perfectly with the meal. I'll be back! What I ordered: - deluxe boi: sesame bun, american, shrettuce, sliced tomato, dill pickle, shaved onion, special sauce - quarter cheese patty melt: sourdough, double patty, american, swiss, grilled onion, fry sauce - fried pickles: house ranch - waffle fries: fry sauce

Hidden gem! Nestled between Ybor, downtown and the Channel district, you will find this brewery meets burger joint with an eclectic and flavor packed menu. The burger are top notch but the spicy pimento cheese stole my heart. Not sure what they did to amp up the basic saltines but holy cow I'll be back real soon for them.

Service was fast and friendly Decor was trendy but practical Simple ingredients put together to create a party in my mouth Love the location because it's close to downtown but you don't have the parking headache!

My family loved the burgers. Mika my 3 year old approved! Nice people. Highly recommended.

My son (who is a big burger critic) said it was the best burger he's ever had! 100 percent recommended the smash burger

Oh dang. The bartenders are adorable, helpful, and the place provides amazing tasting burger. Sooooo juicy and yummy. Daytime matcha, tea, lattes and breakfast choices turned into afternoons and evening bar with wine and tap beers! Def worth coming to at anytime of the day. COME HERE.

Such a great place! Staff was super cool and friendly, beers were tasty and the food was great. We especially loved the patty melt!!

I haven't even tried the food yet but the wait is long and that makes me believe it's delicious and worth the wait! I'm sitting at the bar and the staff is incredible! It has a homey safe vibe. Street parking was easy to find and the playlist is nice and chill...

Solid smash burger and fries. Would get a double next time for more meat. Friendly service at the bar. No complaints!

Absolutely lived up to the name -- Mighty Fine! I got the Deluxe Boi Double Patty Smash Burger with waffle fries and it was a 5/5. Super flavorful, juicy, and cooked perfectly. The waffle fries were crispy and seasoned just right. Service was fast and friendly, and there's tons of seating inside. The restaurant does get a little loud, but the vibe is fun and casual. Definitely coming back!

Alright Tampa !!! This is easily one of the best burgers in the city. Don't believe me? Check this out Quarter pound patty melt - sourdough toasted is simply divine. Throw in some cheese, sauce, a perfectly seasoned smash patties and you have something special. If I'm not mistaken there was some caramelized onions but not enough in my opinion. I like to think of myself as the Dave Portnoy of burgers/sandwiches and this was an 8.5 some more onions makes it a 9. You need this burger !! Cookie butter cheese cake is the icing on the cake , I mean you could get the worst cheesecake in the world and throw on some biscoff cookie bits and elevate it ten fold . Huge fan and ILLLLLL BE BACKK :)

Love the food love the energy they love the service. Great customer service a lot of good burgers a lot of good choice

I came here last week and I haven't stopped thinking about these burgers since. I am very particular about burgers, so I mean it when I say this is now in the top 3 best burgers in town. We tried the patty melt and the deluxe boi and I still can't decide which was better. The patties were juicy and oh so flavorful, the bread on both - sensational. I was at a loss for words after the first bite - it was that good. And what a fun addition to the neighborhood! Love the laidback atmosphere and their large selection of craft bevs. The bartender was cool and all the staff were very friendly and attentive to everyone. The music selection was also great. This is definitely going to be my new go-to for a casual night out.

Cute little spot. Decor is cool and the service is A1. Nice spot to grab lunch or relax while working (they also have coffee!). Although I only got the classic boi and fries, I did see the chicken sandwich and it looks huge lol. Also, the special sauce kind of reminds me of yum yum sauce so it's kind of sweet but fits well with the burger. There's limited seating inside and there are only a few parking spots in the front. Highly recommend this place.

Five stars for quality, location on Cass Street, early start breakfast hours 8 am, and multipurpose use of building sharing a casual, cozy and very hip location with Late Start Brewery. Might Fine serves coffee, breakfast fair (delicious breakfast tacos) and smash burgers, etc for lunch and dinner. This really is a one stop location for food and hanging with friends. Parking available, but you can ride your bike in the protected bike line just outside on Cass! Portions just right so be ready to order a variety odelicious items and enjoy your favorite local brews. Nate, an owner of Mighty Fine, took time to introduce us to his latest delights. Great vibe. Thanks Nate! Must try items include Classic Boi;Quarter Cheese Patty Melt; Green Pimento App; Ice Box Dessert.

The smash burger was just "ok" to me. A friend recommended I go here because I love boulons smash burger so much . So many it's not a fair comparison I'm not sure. So it was just okay, I also didn't like the bread bun with the seeds on top. The ordering service was a bit stressful it's like waiting at a packed bar trying to squeeze your order in. Once at the other side to pick up your food the guy running that side was nice and helpful because he realized I was waiting awhile to get my food. Lastly, the ambiance is cute but no one was around to wipe off where you eat so I had to do that myself. I would say if you go here just get the patty melt over the burger. I would go back for the patty melt for sure.

The smash burger was the best I've ever had in my life! Quick service, very fresh and made to order food, and a cool environment!

Everything I could want in a smashburger, definitely hit the spot. Super cute atmosphere too, I just went by myself bc I wanted to check it out but it looks like a great spot to hang out with friends on a weekend day. Pretty large space that's also a brewery? Want to go back and make more of a day out of it and try out more of their stuff.

This place rocks! The staff is all super nice and it has a cool outdoor vibe. There is outdoor seating and plenty of drink options for your gluten free pals too. The only reason I'm giving this a 4 star and not 5 is because they don't have any vegetarian entrees for me to eat. However my bf raves about the burgers - says it's the best in town. Just wish we could go here more and I could eat too lol. Go here! Hang out!

Easily one of the best smash burgers in time, they really nail the Maillard reaction essential to a good smash patty with crispy edges. The fries were a bit underwhelming and overshadowed by the entrees. Interior has a bit chaotic but fun vibe (at least on the Sunday I went) Will come back to try the rest of the menu

The food was out of this world. The best patty melt I've ever had in my life. The sauce with the fries was so good. If in Tampa, this is a must!!!

cinci chili coney - potato bun, sabrett dog, cinci chili, mustard, onion, lots of cheese - $7. very good food and service. great ambiance and tv's for one to catch a sports game. ample parking available.

First of all, so cute on the corner and the perfect indoor/outdoor vibe. There is outdoor seating, indoor, bar tops and easy for Togo. We came once and had the wrong hours, second time they had a grilled cheese pop up (delicious!), third time was Gasparilla and they legit ran out of food they were so busy... so 4th time was a charm to try the burgers and BOY WAS IT WORTH IT. Delicious, exactly what you want from a burger and fries. We tried the classic double, classic single, the waffle fries and green pimento cheese. Everything was outstanding and I would have it again! The double was a lot of meat... I was expecting super skinny smash patties but you definitely get your money worth on the patties (no skinny Steak 'n Shake style here!). The staff are super friendly, the vibe is casual and the drinks were good. If you aren't a beer drinker they had some seltzer and Prosecco options and plenty of water around. Looking forward to coming back.

Simple menu, good drinks and fire smash burgers! I really enjoyed the original sin cider too!

First the good news,.... the fries are delicious. The bad news,..... it was the worst burger I have ever had. I am 62 yrs old and have had many burgers in my lifetime. I know they specialize in smash burgers, but there was almost no meat at all!!! The little piece that was there, was burnt to a crisp !! Do yourself a favor and skip this overpriced garbage and go to McDonalds !! You will enjoy that more than the Mighty fine crap we were served!

10/10 smash burger, look no more. One of the better smash burgers I've had out here. I only got a single patty which is how i prefer it and it was cooked perfectly and had a great flavor without being overly salty. The sesame seed bun really adds to the experience along with their secret sauce. If you're looking for a good burger i recommend the deluxe burger with fries (waffle fries were also great). I also tried the fried pickles and they were the most unique ones I've ever had. They are extremely thin and lightly breaded and come with a house-made sauce. They were good but I don't feel the need to get it next time. Topped it all off with a latte and the barista/bar tender was extremely kind with my friend and I when we didn't know what beers to get. She even let us sample an alternative milk when we told her we'd never tried a particular one. The outdoor seating is dog friendly and has such a nice laid back vibe. This place is only a few months old but I already know it'll be one of my favorites. Next time you're in the mood for a beer give this place a shot

Might be good but the dismissive attitude and the "needing to switch from their basic breakfast menu to their not so difficult lunch menu" beginning at 10:52 am... suffice to say I am not a fan of places who don't put in much effort. To be fair, they didn't care that I wasn't impressed, and it is their business - hence my three stars. I can't fault them for their food or drink as I didn't try anything but their willingness to own their attitude is nothing to sneeze at. I just know I will never come back.

Stopped here today after going to ikea. Mighty fine and late start is the same restaurant. They have maybe 5 parking spots and then there is paid parking across the street. It's a small quaint spot. After reading the reviews I ordered the patty melt and they didn't lie it was excellent, waffle fries were just normal everyday waffle fries. My husband ordered the fried pickles and I usually don't like them but I liked theirs. They were cut really thin. I also got a cold caramel iced latte and it was great. Over all other then the parking it's a thumbs up!

I had the burger yesterday and it was without a doubt top 3 in all of greater Tampa Bay. I came back this morning for the breakfast tacos. I have to say, they knocked it out of the park! Exactly like what you would get in Austin, TX. Really realaxing laid back environment with TVs as well to catch a game.

LITERALLY THE BEST BURGER EVER!!!! the service is great, it's a good environment, and the fried pickle chips are heaven

Mighty Fine is your local burger spot prepared by a Michelin-level chef. The Owner and Executive Chef, Nate, is the most hospitable human I've ever met, and every visit feels like I'm coming to my own home. Everything on the menu is incredible, with the Patty Melt being my personal favorite. Come give Mighty Fine a try, and grab a beer from Late Start to make your day. Cheers!

Unreal burgers and great waffle fries Fry sauce on point, it's really everything one would want when looking for a smash burger. We will be back often!

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!!! I recommend the sourdough melt it is delicious. Great customer service super nice people and food comes out fast. Cannot recommend enough

I dream about this place. It's SOOOOO good. Best smash burger in Tampa by far and I'd even say best overall burger in Tampa too ( But I prefer smash burgers over regular burgers). The fried pickles are also amazing, so thin and crispy. If I could give this place a 11/10, I would.

we ordered two single deluxe burgers, one plain classic burger and one chicken sandwich and two orders of fries....you would think this was a simple order, maybe nothing to write home about....my family and I ate this food like starving monsters! it was SO DELICIOUS!!!! the fries came with little containers of their special sauce, which was also on my son's and my burger, now we might be obsessed. the fries were perfectly fried, waffles crunchy perfection and we were literally fighting over them haha! the burgers were the smashed style, super juicy and had a nice hunk of tomato, melty cheese, pickle and shredded lettuce onion combo that was great! my picky kiddo even woofed his burger down, and THAT is truly a testament to an irresistible burger. my husband got the chicken sandwich and let us all try it, ALSO DELICIOUS. it has some kind of creamy garlicky situation going on and i'm not usually pro dark meat but I would totally get it next time. on to the beverages, I had a cold brew with just a little bit of cream and some caramel....def would come back for this as well. the cold brew had a nice deep flavor and even though I got the smaller size I'm feeling a little more pep in my step. my husband tried their porter (I also had a little taste) on nitro and it was also good but I would want to come back a couple times, one to focus on trying some beers and another to try and make it in time for breakfast....only con I saw was that they stop serving bfast at 11, which threw me off a bit with the "late start" name for their partner space.

OMG! I know that there are all kinds of burgers,so I hate to say this was a perfect burger but it was a perfect burger for me. My husband and I were looking for an interesting lunch spot. After reading the good reviews we gave it a try. The crispy bits on the smash burger were delicious. I had the patty melt and my husband had the classic double patty. We had the waffle fries and fried pickles. Everything was delicious. Sorry I didn't take a photo. We will be back. Also the restaurant is adorable.

Food, drink, atmosphere & vibe are incredible at any time of day. Breakfast tacos and burgers are incredible.
