    Our visit to Lee’s Grocery was today during the late afternoon time. We were promptly greeted by our fabulous server. Our beer orders were served up quick and icy cold. Pizza order was brought out steaming hot and fresh from the oven. We went with a vegetarian option and meat option. Both were excellent with soft chewy crusts. We brought have plenty of leftovers along with a nice selection from their beer options. Pristine clean place - music at level where you can hold a conversation. If you haven’t tried them out please do - you won’t be disappointed. Ample street parking.

    Their pizza and cheesey bread is fantastic! Huge selection of beer too. Definitely worth the stop if you're in the area.

    You know... They call themselves a pizza restaurant — but, to be completely honest...the reviews aren't lying about the wings y'all! They're smoked & seasoned nicely & basically offer an upscale take on bar classics — but priced at a casual rate. Comfortable atmosphere, friendly staff & beautiful presentation. Will definitely be back (with friends!)

    Some of the best pizza and wings!! When we’re nearby, we make sure to stop by to eat and/or take something home. The chicken was very tender and the sauce on the wings was chef’s kiss. This was something odd (idk if this is normal) but someone was handling a big uncovered baking tray of the wings (not sure if they were cooked/uncooked) in the freezer and that was a bit unsettling. Anyways, the bbq sriracha is unique and hits the spot. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area!

    Delicious pizza and wings! A 10inch was the perfect size to share with my partner and the wings came out piping hot! The beer selection was also extensive with lots of variety and we can’t wait to come back

    Lee's is a cool spot! Pizza was great. Local beer selection is awesome. I'd recommend going with one of their menu choices for pizza. We did a half & half pie... and "The Message" plus pepperoni was way better choice than our custom half with meatballs & ricotta. People raved about the wings so we had to try them. The hot wings were not hot at all, but still tasty. 4.5 stars overall!

    Dope little spot close to downtown. They have a great local beer selection. The pizza and wings were awesome. The Bbq siracha wings were amazing. Looking forward to trying the rest. Can’t really go wrong with any of the pizza selections. Overall a great place!

    This place is delicious. We are big fans of the "dont stand too close to me" pizza. Every time we are in town, Lees is a must. The pizza takes a moment to make but its well worth the wait. It arrives at your table hot and ready to eat. Also had the wings for the first time our last trip and they are equally as fresh and delicious!

    Apparently very busy on the weekend, so get there early. On a random Thursday, it was really nice for a drink and pizzas/beer. Service was on point, grabbed us beers before we were out. Pizzas were hot and flavorful. Wings were mild, but we'll seasoned. Would come back and would love to live in the neighborhood and walk to this great little place!

    This is a great local pizza joint. It's nestled in the cutest neighborhood and has a great selection of beer. They've got refrigerators lining the place where you can pick out the can of your choice. They also have a few local options on draft. The specialties pies are really different than most laces, we loved the Kiki Do You Love Me and recently tried the Minor Threat with added meatballs and we loved it too! Wings are amazing, you've gotta order them and we recommend getting a smaller pizza so you can eat it all.

    Amazing low-key, laid back, place to hang out with friends, grab one of their many niche brews, and get some great pizza and wings. All around awesome place with great staff. A hidden gem. We need more of these in our neighborhoods.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth K. 7 months ago on Google
    Everyone who has been to Lee’s grocery can attest to how good the pizza and wings are, not to mention the great energy of this local corner bar. They serve wine and beer and have a huge selection of self serve beers. It’s tucked away in a residential neighborhood in Tampa Heights, right outside of downtown. Fun fact I did drive here during a hurricane evacuation to try to get wings.

    This restaurant is great hidden gem. It's a historic building that was built in 1884 and was originally a grocery store. That's why the name "Lee's grocery"still remains. The atmosphere is very laid back. The service that we received was very nice too. The pizza was very tasty and had plenty of styles to choose from. There is a wide selection of beers and sodas. There is a outdoor patio that is fenced-in and pet friendly. The owner is very friendly and down-to-earth.

    Skeptical of all the pryer reviews that all raved about this pizza joint, but once walking in, I could tell the hometown Vive was in full affect. Ordered a simple pepperoni pizza with fresh basil and the flavors were outstanding. Not a soggy pizza, but with a firm grip, I could taste, the ingredients ingrained inside the pizza from the homegrown cheese to the fine pepperoni that was attached to it. I would recommend this place for one of the best pizza establishment in the Tampa area.

  • 5/5 Tasha Merkling, R. 8 months ago on Google
    Ordered the Sweet Thai Chili wings & “Don’t stand so close to me” pizza. Both were great!

  • 5/5 Rich W. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome joint for tasty pizza and wings. Outdoor patio for your canine friends. Exceptional service. Parking is limited as it's surrounded by housing with no parking lot. Residents are understanding as long as you don't block a driveway and follow no parking signs. Definetly going back. Spouse and I liked their pizza better than Eddie and Sam's. Both are good though depending on your mood. Not a thin crust pizza here.

    These guys are shysters IMO. I ordered 1 large pizza (half cheese w/ 2 toppings & half BBQ chicken). They charged me the full amount of the BBQ chicken pizza plus 2 toppings. They overcharged me by $6.5 and the waiter acted like nothing was wrong. Good thing AMEX has excellent fraud protection. Check your receipts folks. Based on my experience, who knows what you’ll be charged!

    Pizza was 🔥 so so good. Great beer selection, owner made sure everyone outside was comfortable, and had bug spray. She even stopped for a few min and chatted about pizza and beer with us, as I work at another pizza and beer spot. Get there!

  • 5/5 Chantal W. 9 months ago on Google
    The pizza here is phenomenal. Super crisp crust and flavorful sauce. Street parking is available all around and the restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating.

  • 5/5 Ed B. 2 years ago on Google
    Pretty good pizza and beer. If you haven't had their pizza yet, what are you waiting for? Buffalo Chicken pizza with blue cheese swirl is my favorite.

  • 5/5 Anthony A. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing pizza and a nice hidden location. Love that it look just like a regular house in the middle of a neighborhood. One of the best pizza I've had.

  • 5/5 Cody K. 2 years ago on Google
    BEST PIZZA AND WINGS IN THE AREA.. Don't get me started on the Beer selection. LOVE THIS PLACE.. my new favorite hang out spot.. the Staff is some of the coolest people I've been around.

  • 5/5 Chris C. 11 months ago on Google
    It was super busy and loud, but not offensively so, but this was probably the best pizza I have ever had! I mean, it was good good. I've had pizza all over the world. I've had Chicago pizza in Chicago, New York style pizza in NYC, and a handful of other cities but this pizza is probably top 5 world wide. Maybe top 3... I have to do a taste test that wouldn't really be practical because it's going to be like having NYC Chicago, and a ton of California places all in the same spot just to determine who is actually best. This is premium pizza, and if they mess with their formula it wouldn't keep the flavor. What I mean is, it's a small place and it takes forever for your pizza to come out... HOWEVER!!! if they were to get a larger place, bigger oven, or change anything, they risk losing what makes it so special. This can't change, you have to wait your turn and if this were to try and be anything bigger, faster, or even more lucrative... it just would detract from the whole experience. Go here, sit in the place, have some beer (even the non alcoholic beer is good! For real!!) Be patient and soak in the authenticity of the place, and all the years it's been since the place opened, and see if you agree. Can't beat this place!
