Ybor City in Tampa is also known as Florida's Latin Quarter. It was named after a famous cigar rolling guy from 100 years ago. It is a collection of several city blocks of restaurants, bars, clubs and shops. It's a great place to spend the day or the evening.
We went down there one day for lunch and I found a great Cuban sandwich. Then we went down there one evening to go dancing at a club and it was lots of fun but there wasn't any seating nor any tables. When I dance I like to set down my drink on a table where no one will kick it. I don't like to hold it and spill it while I dance.
Obviously other people don't mind dancing with a drink as evidenced by the wet floor. I slipped and almost fell down at one point. It's a bar I wanted to forget, so I don't remember the name. However I do remember that it was similar to many college bars that I've been in because it smells like stale beer.
Ybor City has a lot to offer, and I've only seen part of it. Check out the websites below for more information.
