Very kind. Lots of great cigar labels! Love it.

This place is such a blast and a real incredible piece of history. It feels like stepping back in time. There are many cigar shops, eateries, and night life places all over. There also is an interesting museum. The people here are usually super friendly and love to say hi. Interestingly there are stray chickens roaming around the city as well. This is a definite must see if you are travelling through the area.

We Absolutely enjoyed our visit! Phil was a great host and throughly explained Ybor City, the prominent leaders and buildings. I really appreciate the time he took to circle must see places on the visitors map. The movie was awesome as well. Thank you Phil!

Ybor City historic center has a number of places still open but it’s lost its old glory because of Covid, many shops and bars closed down. Remnants of the good times still open but deserted.

I. Love. This. Area. The trolley is free a d th s for at least 2.5 miles of track. The drivers are friendly. The statuons are numerous and it runs every 15 minutes. I just wish it ran later. It takes you to all the party areas. Its clean and it really feels lile something out of the Georgian period. Parking is everywhere. If you are thete at night, oatk somewhere well lit. I've known hubcaps to go missing. Private lots can get expensive, but the city lots and city parking garage are quite reasonable. The parking lots on 8th st are close to the trolley line. Its a well it and safe trek to most of the clubs and restaurants us. There are numerous restraints with quality and flavor. Its a worlds fair of food. You have Greek, New Orleans, Italian, Cuban, Asian fusion, pizza, burgers and even some fast food. I'm sure I'm missing something. Not only are there many types og food, but there are many options for each type. Some of the place or are open super late as well. There are night clubs EVERYWHRE. Prana is loud, but has a variety of dance floors. Castle is fun and welcoming of an altetnative crowd. Gaspars is great for pirate fans. There are others. There is a fun speak easy behind a bookcase in Stone Soup. Valled the SpookEasy. Their schtick, besides being behind a bookcase, is that they are haunted. Ive esperienced a few things there. Holidays there are great! Its a bit crowded but thete is something festive everywhere. At Xmas they have a large anf imposing tree. For mardi grad they have a new orleans style funeral for a chicken. At Halloween they have a huge to do. It goes on. Speaking of chickens, they are LITERALLY EVERYWHERE. There is even a society formed to protect the chickens. They are cute, too. You'll see five chicken or varying stages of development following around the rooster or hen that has adopted them. Its a very progressive chicken society.(not to be confused with the society for their protection and preservation.) They have pretty markings too. Watch out for them when driving. They tend to think they own the street and will walk right down the middle off it messing their adoptive brood. Pedestrians treat the roads much like the chickens do. There are historical markers EVERYWHERE. Great day trip for any history buff. There are juat as many pokestops. Ride the trolley to hit a bunch of stops and her about 4 miles of eggs in. It sometimes goes slow enough. Even if you dont ride the trolley for that, it's a fun ride. You can walk and walk and never hit every pokestop. If you manage to, you can juat start again and do it for as long as you like. There's something going on day or night. It's a great place for ghost hunters. Even TAPS investigated there... TWICE! It's gorgeous there. Watch out for Instagramers. They are out in force. If you are a tourist or instgrammer, you're in luck, because there are great photo ops at every turn and more. I'm constantly rubbing into friends and people, I know it really it's just a small town inside the larger Tampa municipal area. Its a right community and everyone is do friendly, as long as you arent a jerk or anything. Even then, they have shown great patience. There is a 7/11 there that gives new meaning to "convienience store." Pay the protesors no mind. They're harmless, annoying, but harmless. There is a pizza place that status open til 3am on club nights. Honestly, lifesaver. Delicious, too. There are festivals at the weekend market ALL the time. Its worth a go. Great fun and a nice excuse to get some sun, but it's shaded b too, so that's not so bad. There's work places there with widows everywhere that I still didn't get. The game tomwas recently overhauled and now its a lot of fun. Gay pride everywhere! I love it! Recently found a tiny Italian hole in the wall with great gelato. I'm always discovering something new down there.

Great 5 minute video to learn about Ybor City and purchase souvenirs or gifts. They have everything rooster and very knowledgeable employees.

Was interesting a great place to spend a few hours

Was nice place for hang out with friend and someone special. There are old buildings around, salon, restaurant, vape shop, and every saturday always had bazzar which is a lots of things there.

Did you know the YCDC has all kinds of information to share with you to make your Historic District even more of an experience in Culture and fun....it's not all about the bars and clubs at night. There are so many new items to purchase made by local artist and representative of the local history and culture.

Such great history. Don't miss the movie

Great little area to visit. Loved the Roosters.

Amazing place to learn about the Historic Area. Great place to start your trip to Ybor City.
