The Brass Tap

Had an amazing lunch today at The Brass Tap – North Dale Mabry with my beautiful daughter! We enjoyed the super delicious Hot Honey Cauliflower Pizza, which had the perfect balance of crispy crust, sweet heat, and cheesy goodness. Paired it with a Caesar Salad for a fresh, classic touch and a flight of ciders that made the meal even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting, the service was great, and that pizza? Absolutely worth coming back for! If you’re looking for a fantastic spot for craft drinks and unique bites, this is it. Can’t wait to go back!

We have been coming to this Brass Tap location for years now. Every time the food and drinks have been delicious!! They never miss. They have fun game nights and the service is always phenomenal! I am writing a review this trip because it was spectacularly special. After a bad day, all you want is friendly service and a good drink. This Friday we came in and had Faith as our waitress. I haven’t had her as one yet, but she is by far the most bubbly and friendly server I have met. She made my bad day into a great night! Shout out to Faith for the laughs and good service! Shout out to the back of house for the great food! And big thanks to the bartender for always making the drinks PERFECT!

Came by on a The Bachelor watch party night so the atmosphere certainly was festive. Drinks are decently priced and the food is about up to par for a bar. Service is quite good with regular attention from our server.

Loved that we were able to sample different drafts selections. We loved how thin the pickle chips were. Omg.. the chicken sandwich...beer battered chicken breast!!!! It was amazing. I plan to come back just for the chicken. My husband really enjoyed the burger as well. Sad we didn't stop in here sooner.

Kaela thought she was owed $12 on a $15 tab. And despite calling 2 times and leaving messages about this, NO ONE has reached out. Nice knowing my hard earned money means nothing here. We'll, except when it's in Kaela's wallet. TRASH.

Great bar. Service is good. All the servers are very attentive. On Thursdays they have general knowledge trivia nights starting at 7. it gets very busy very quickly, so arrive early.

Mehhhh... Lousy food, boring service! Late Saturday night, fairly packed restaurant, but neither the food nor the service were able to create an impression. We were so disappointed that we walked out after the dreary appetizers. We ate at another, better restaurant/bar! The brussel sprouts at Brass Taps CarrollWood were the worst we've ever had, blanched brussel sprouts thrown carelessly on a cold cast iron mini skillet with zero seasoning. Such lackluster presentation too. Ughh so bummed for wasting a Saturday...

Nice looking bar and great selection of beers. Plenty of tvs to watch sports on. Their beers Golden Truth and Brass Tap Red Ale were really good. Happy Hour tacos (poblano chicken) were amazing with a good kick. I could eat those tacos all day. Will definitely hit this place up again when in the area.

I've been here 3 times. Great, prompt, friendly service. I have had the Sweet Heat BBQ Bacon burger, The chicken Sandwich, and the Chicken Tap salad. People with me had the wings, fish n chips, and tacos. Everything was above average. The lunch deal from $10 is a great price point. Lots of TV's, and a large bar with a wonderful selection of taps.

I've been wanting to try this for a long time because I used to work very close by! So we decided to go on a Monday night! And it was actually very goo, the menu is huge, got so many options which is pretty nice, it was not too crowded, there was like 3 more people in te bar, they have a huge list of beer, I tried something that the bartender told me it was similar to blue moon, and I was great! We got some wings to share, they have like a wing basket that comes with a side of fries, it's a pretty good deal I asked them if the can do my fries loaded and they did, they were very good. We also shared the hot pepperoni pizza, which for me the crust was a little too thick but flavor was good. The place looks very easy going and give you those bar vibes to have a beer or two. As I said before it was not too crowded, but the bartender was like giving all the attention to an specific costumer so we had to really try to get her attention to get some service, that was the only thing that I did not like so much, but for the rest it was great. I'm coming back for sure.

First time at Brass Tap! We came for Trivia Night on a Thursday night. Buffalo Cauliflower - This was good, I wish the cauliflower pieces were bigger Brass Tap Classic Pizza - Fair size pizza, safe choice Tater Tots side - There was more tots that came in the side than I expected! Strawberry Coconut Mojito - This very yummy. Yes. I liked that the music wasn't too loud because they had the garage doors open and the music could go outside too. Definitely coming again for trivia night!

We have been here several times now so here is my review. Brass Tap is a chain and have several locations around Tampa. This location is close to our house and so we do stop in from time to time. They carry a great selection of local and national beers. They serve food and we have eaten here before but the beer is what brings us back. Erica served us today and was friendly and helped us make some great selections and soon we were enjoying some great beer. The ambiance is casual and inviting. We certainly will be back

This is a great place to come and get good food and refreshing drinks. Their industrial vibe has plenty of seating inside and outside. We stopped in for a quick refreshment today. The bar tender, Erika, was very friendly and helpful. I got their beer of the month Angry Chair Full Circle Lager. It was lighter than I expected, but so refreshing. It was a great experience and we look forward to coming back soon!

Good service, prices are good for the quality of food and nice atmosphere. We ordered the fish and chips and tacos and enjoyed them on our 3 ventures to The Brass Tap. If you go before 6 pm the noise level is good. Later in the evening it is noisy. We will return.

First time here! Micheal the server was amazing and so was the bartender Frenchie! Amazing customer service to both #TheBrassTap @brasstaphollister #buzzybooth

I ordered the fried shrimp and fries on DoorDash. It was mediocre at best. More grease than flavor. Thanks to my paper towels to blot the grease, my air fryer to add crisp, and my Cajun seasoning... it was edible. I wouldn't order again.

Love this place! They just did a small renovation and updated the chairs! Much more comfortable

My friends and I went to Brass Tap yesterday and had such a good time. I got the jalapeño pretzel, chicken wrap, and tried the southern tier nitro and some sort of purple 1000 beer and it was all incredible. Shout out to our server Rachel for some killer recommendations. I forgot to take a picture of our food so heres our mean mugs instead

I love this place. They have the most amazing specials daily. The food is stellar. And Erika is possibly the best bartender on the planet. Tuesday specials are my favorite for tacos and margaritas but half off wine Wednesday's are also the bomb. Get the cheese curds. You won't regret it.

It has been a while since I was here last. The food was good and the service was as well. Our server was nice and friendly but there were a few who looked as if they would preferred to be anywhere else but there. I got the chicken strips and fries. The Nashville Hot was a good choice, just the right amount of heat. There were enough TVs to watch whatever sporting event you wanted to see. I will definitely come back.

Brass is the best local bar. The staff is seriously the BEST, Trin's great and all the staff are very friendly! Great experience start to finish every time. Tacos were the juiciest!

It seems that the post-COVID atmosphere at The Brass Tap has been a little rocky lately. Business appears to be better than ever with more and more people venturing out in public again. My last few visits have seen near capacity crowds with not enough servers available to meet the needs of the restaurant. As a result, service has been much slower than on previous visits. We've come to accept this. We went in for dinner again last night. Same old story. Find a seat and wait. No, we were not in a hurry, but waiting 15 minutes to get a drink order in at a beer establishment is inexcusable. Our server was new, and was quite nice, so I will cut her some slack, but there seemed to be no sense of urgency. At some point, our server went MIA, and our food was delivered by another server. My burger was cold to the touch and my guess is that it sat in the kitchen waiting for our server to bring it to us. Also, from the looks of things, it appears that longtime partner to the Brass Tap, Carrollwood Brewing has moved out. The brewing equipment, which has long been a focal point in the restaurant, has been removed. There is no longer any Carrollwood Brewery product included on the tap menu, which is unfortunate. I was a huge fan of Carrollwood Nessie! I pulled one star from my previous reviews because of their current state. I am not sure what the future holds for the Brass Tap, but I hope that they pull it back together soon. They are still one of our go-to restaurants in the area and the atmosphere can't be beat if you are a beer lover.

Our waitress was amazing, drink and appetizer were very good. Vibes were awesome, great music, would love a little dance area lol. Maybe instead of taking $50 deposit for the big drink, hold onto a couple ID's? Just a thought. No complaints!! Will definitely be back soon, thank you!! #TheBrassTap @brasstaphollister #buzzybooth

Ordered a chicken Caesar salad. Had a few bits of chicken which were hard and cold. Looks nothing like the menu photo. One of the worst Caesar salads I have ever had.

Several flawless visits to the Brass Tap earned this place five stars in my book. I enjoyed this laid back brewery before the pandemic, and even more so during. This past year I've appreciated their efforts to combat the spread of the virus. Staff always wore masks. Plus, they opened huge windows to let fresh air in. I can't drink beer but there's always a delicious hard cider for me. The menu offers legitimately gluten-free options. Recently, I tried the Blackened Cod tacos, which were perfect in every way. I always appreciate chefs that think to heat up the corn tortillas. Always been a fan of the Buffalo Cauliflower appetizer. This place has enough TVs to watch every sporting event, and games tend to draw crowds. Casual atmosphere ideal for couples or large groups to enjoy the game with good mixed drinks, brews, delish munchies, and friendly staff. One of Carrollwood's gems!

I know the Brass Tap is a chain but I was pleasantly surprised by the food and beer selection. We came in to watch the FSU v UF basketball game (GO NOLES) and found a perfect view of the game in front of a few of the many TVs inside. We ordered some beers and tried some shareable small plates off the happy hour menu - the Brussels sprouts, the Queso and the tater tots. They come in sizable portions - perfect for small bites and sharing. They weren't anything spectacular but great for pairing with a beer. Definitely a great neighborhood bar!

We have been sleeping on this place. It's actually in walking distance from where we live. Whenever we drive by, it's always busy. That is a great sign right there. We decided to have a meal and a drink (or two) for NYE. They were not to busy during this time. And we were ok with that. So we decided to sit outside. I started things off with a drink..... The Weekender. WOW.....Amazing and oh so tasty. I had 2. Lol My entree was the Baja Chicken Flatbread Pizza. It was soooo good y'all. I loved it. Very tasty and flavorful. Will probably get again on one of our future visits. My husband had a Lager Beer... Founders Gold Gold Premium Lager. He loved it. He had 2 too. And his entree was the Fish and Chips. Also very tasty. Highly recommend Brass Tap if you are looking for a relaxed cool place to grab a drink and a meal. And there are several TVs so you can watch the sporting event for the day.

I've stopped in every now and then just for a quick bite or what not, but the service I received most recently was amazing. I went probably a month ago and still love the way Emily was giving us great recommendations. I'm the most indecisive person I know, and she was knowledgeable, friendly, and quick. Not only was the service good, but everything was delicious. I got the Mac N Cheese bites and the Quesadilla Burger (which Emily recommended) and WOW would I get them again.

The Brass Tap in Carrollwood is in such a great location and has tons of seating available to sit and sip a beer. They have a wide variety of beer options available. I had the Sea Dog Brewery Wild Blueberry and my friends had the Unholy. The service was wonderful! I wish I would've caught our serve's name because she was the sweetest! Great music selection over the radio as well. We didn't try any of the food this time. I can't wait to go back and try other beers.

Wow. Incredible bar service. Kate, Trin, and Erika make my time here. Been coming in for years just to see them.

Great place great personalities at the bar. Love it. Kate, Trinity, and Erika all five stars

Visited the new Brass Tap at Sunlake/Lutz and was impressed with the crowd, food, and service. I asked to watch a specific college football game and they obliged. I will definitely be going back. Welcome to the neighborhood!

Came here back to back nights for a drink with family friends, they live in Lutz so they knew about this place, it was the first time I heard of it. Plenty of tvs inside and plenty of tap beers to choose from. We were very fortunate to have Jessica serve us both nights, we told her what we normally drink and she knew exactly what to get for us from their house selections. Jessica was very pleasant and very attentive, as is everyone else that works there from what I saw. I tried their pretzel bites with queso on the first visit and it was good. If you are looking for a place to grab a drink with great service, give this place a shot.

Good happy hour food and drinks. Great value. Always a favorite to end a workday. Only minus is their iced tea is not good and they don't have sweetener for it when you order it.

I was welcomed with a confident and cheery smile as soon as I walked in the door. I was instructed to have a seat wherever I'd like and that someone would be right with me. The extensive draft list was handed to me almost immediately along with a contemporary and updated food menu. My server, Tiana, introduced herself to me and recommended a few of her favorite appetizers and beer pairings. She was quick, knowledgeable, and efficient. Even with a busy dining room, I felt acknowledged and important which goes a long a way at a craft beer establishment. 10/10 would return.

Erika is a personable and amazing bartender. She made my experience wonderful. The food is great and the atmosphere is fun and energetic. Can't wait to come back.

My husband and I started trying out places for brunch on Sundays and thought we'd give them a try and we were not disappointed. We went to the one on South Dale Mabry. The service was great but you should go early like we did because it start's getting pretty full the closer the time gets to football starting. It's definitely a Patriots fan base. Lots of tv's and a great atmosphere. We both ordered one of their tater tots skillet item and it was seasoned nicely. Not too much but not too little either. Just right! We definitely plan on going back and trying a few more things on their menu!

Met an old friend for drinks. I grew up in Carrollwood in the 80's but haven't been back in this plaza for many years. Great service, strong drinks, good friends. Couldn't ask for more' I would go back!

Best Tots in town and Maya was awesome. Wife really enjoyed the new Belgium hazy. Great beer selection and bar food rocks.

Erika is amazing and best bartender we have ever had. Highly recommend going in to see her.

Good food & great drinks for a good price!! Julieta was our server and she was the best!

Have been in a few times. Have had Erika as they server every time. Erika is a fantastic server. She takes her job seriously and is very efficient.

My boss and I came here yesterday around 1:30-2. Firstly, our service was TOP NOTCH. I think her name started w a D but not sure. She was very kind, attentive and knew a lot! I got the steak tacos and they were delicious . Perfect amount of steak and idk what they put on them but they were sssooo good!!!! Also it came w chips which were very good!! We will definitely be back!

The server was very nice and attentive but the food and drinks were a huge disappointment. Lemon pepper wings were super salty the coleslaw had no taste to it and the brisket tacos barely passed.

Great staff, very reasonable drink prices, great food. Love this place. Always packed

Great place to meet friends and hang out. Highly recommend. A must visit. Definitely worth a visit

Erika and Rachel are the best bartenders/servers I've ever had! Ask for either of them anytime you visit.

Wonderful atmosphere! Food is great! Drinks are always cold. Erika is the best bartender ever!!!!!!!

I'll visit a restaurant 2 or 3 times before rating them. Both visits were during lunch. My first experience I ordered a shrimp appetizer, beer, fish and chips. Service was great both times, kudos to the wait staff and bartenders. The shrimp and beer was good. The fish was overcooked in the deep fryer, fries were too salty. My second visit I ordered a coke, fish and chips again to see if my first visit was a fluke. Disappointed a second time. In the basket were three small ballish fish pieces mostly batter, coleslaw tasted spoiled and the fries turned out ok.

Tiana was spectacular! A bunch of tables came in all at once. It was Saturday between 2 and 3. The bar tender was here and there disappearing. Another lady came in but wasn't super useful. Seemed to not care about the tables or how busy it was. She just let Tiana do all the work. Tiana was great. Positive attitude despite a challenging environment! I hope I get put into her section when I go back. I'm sure I will because she was taking care of the whole dining room with no help. Food was great too!

I would recommend for anyone lots of beers on draft The food was amazing and service from trinity Tiana and Mj are unmatched

The food is really good and the beer was outstanding. Had the nachos and really enjoyed it and couldn't be happier sitting across from such a handsome man the entire time. My husband is absolutely gorgeous. The server Maya was really nice as well. I think she noticed how gorgeous he was too.

Tiana was amazing and very hospitable! Brass Tap in Carrollwood had a very nice ambience in general. Space was clean and the whole staff was very friendly. Especially Tiana.

Nice place, great location but poor service. Went on a Friday night, please keep in mind the place was not full, this was around 7 pm. Giving the benefit of the doubt maybe our server was in charge of many tables but nope! Every order it took at least 20 minutes!!! I don't know if it is this Brass tal location but the variety of beer is not that much. Food was ok. On a brighter side, bathrooms were clean, the place looks clean and welcoming. That day they ran out of a couple of things I wanted from the menu but eh! It could have been just one of those days. I give this place a 3 star rating because it was an Ok experience. - El Futbolero

Excellent absolutely amazing!!! The service was perfect , drinks were really good and the food was even better than I thought. We ordered the appetizer ( guacamole,cheese curds, fried shrimp and Buffalo cauliflower) it was so good!!!!!! We also ordered the Korean bbq flatbread and chicken wings also absolutely delicious. We will definitely be going back..

Stopped by here after a Yelp event at Golfer's Grail recently. I have been here before on a Brew Bus excursion but did not have a sober experience lol! This past time was pleasant as it was not overly crowded and I was coherent. I will say that it was confusing from the outside to see the Carrollwood Brewery sign out front, but I knew from the past that it was Brass Tap. This location is rather inconvenient based on my location, but I don't mind stopping by when I'm in the area. It's clean and there is lots of parking in the big lot. It's located in the Publix Plaza close to Dale Mabry and Busch. The beer selection rotates regularly and they house Carrollwood Brewery with a few taps. I wasn't crazy about any of these local beers but I think it's great that they have marked off a corner of the bar for the closed off brewing location. It is a great display of local craft beer support. They serve food at this location and the staff is very friendly. I'll be back.

12:30 PM on Saturday, November 21st. Ordered 2 poblano taco meals, Buffalo chicken wrap with tots, and a cheeseburger with fries. After about 20 minutes, the cheeseburger came out first- all by itself. We then waited for the rest of the order. After 10 minutes, one poblano taco order came out.. And then after another 20 minutes the buffalo chicken wrap, was brought out, and then an additional 10 minutes passed before the second poblano taco order came out. Fn ridiculous! And during that same 40 minute wait for everything, I saw two other tables complain, and a group of four just leave because they were waiting forever just to be waited on for drinks.
