Why Fans Keep This Place in the Mix

The Bricks in Tampa sits inside a destination with celeb-linked mentions and strong event density. We connect this place to nearby game, show, and concert opportunities for fan weekend planning.

The Bricks in Ybor City is Tampa's most historic sports bar neighbourhood anchor — a multi-level venue in the city's Cuban heritage district that packs out with Lightning and Buccaneers fans who've been coming here since Ybor was the only place to watch a game in Tampa Bay. The combination of genuine local character, cold drafts, and the surrounding Ybor brick streets gives visiting sports fans the authentic Tampa Bay experience that the waterfront Channelside bars can't replicate. On Cup playoff nights, the Ybor block party surrounding The Bricks is legendary.
