The Tampa Club

This exclusive Club is excellent in every measurable way. Staff is friendly and engaging. The clientele is as refined as you would expect in this kind of establishment. The drinks were all superb and the one selection made for the affectionato. All the dinner selections leave you with the desire to order them all especially after you see them. We were in a party of seven and everybody at the table was more than pleased with the service food and drink. I would especially like to call out two things. Justin was paying close attention to our parties needs and giving us the guided tour of the club and the surrounding area. Thank you for that. Secondly The View; it was simply breathtaking. Hundreds of feet into the air from its balcony and clear windows you can see all of Tampa.

I visited the Tampa Club during the Champa Bay Launch party on Tuesday February 22, 2022 6-11pm which advertised an open bar. No end time was listed for the open bar on the official event website at ChampaBayLaunch.com which is still up. Tampa Club's old male bartender was rude and Eye rolled not once but twice upon asking about open bar and upon asking for a drink menu. I mentioned this to another friend who said that this bartender eye rolled her too and a friend's of hers too so evidently this guy makes a habit of eye rolling patrons of your business. Tampa Club Management really should have a talk with this eye rolling bartender about manners and not to eye roll people for simple questions and requests. Tampa Club Management should provide patrons with a drink menu so people know what kind of specialty mixed drinks are available and what kind of beers are available and what the pricing of these items are. Simple questions like pricing and availability of items should not got eye rolls from bartenders. The Tampa Club Resident membership costs $1700 for initiation and $155 per month with an additional flat hospitality tipping rate of $40 per month or a flat 20% gratuity added to every check. The Tampa Club's guaranteed gratuity policy means staff can be rude to patrons without any sort of financial consequence. Paying a monthly membership fee for the ability to pay again at a restaurant hardly seems like a good Idea to me. Tampa club is in its 40th year of operations and has recently completed their renovations which included opening the terrace on the 42nd floor for dining, expanding the co-work remote space, remodeling of the member grille and ballroom, and the expanding the bar to a whopping 24 seats. If you have to join a dining club, I'd have to recommend the Centre Club which has added a business center with Internet connections. It has wine-tasting parties, a concierge who gets event tickets for members and monthly pizza parties for members' children.
