We know planning the perfect Bachelorette party can come with a lot of pressure, but don’t worry we’ve got you covered! This is the ULTIMATE guide for all our babes who are looking to celebrate in Tampa Bay, St. Pete, and St. Pete Beach. Whether you want something more relaxing and low key or you’re ready to get this party started, rest assured there is something for everyone on this list!
BUT FIRST, BRUNCH
TAMPA BAY
Oxford Exchange: We recommend you sit in the sunlit Conservatory! Very picturesque so get your camera ready. Not to mention there is a FULL CHAMPAGNE BAR!
Meat Market: This is one of the most popular restaurants in Hyde Park. It offers an upscale but lighthearted vibe and is great for the girls who may want to hit some shoppes after a lil boujee brunch.
Boulon: This one’s for the girls looking for the modern luxury and sophisticated energy that comes with Tampa’s Water Street Neighborhood. It’s literally the idillic background for brunch. For our NY girlies, think La Grande Boucherie, Tampa style.
ST PETERSBURG
The Library: This is a must for Downtown St. Pete Brunch, it brings a lively atmosphere & variety on the menu! You have to try the nutella french toast it is to die for! Also a great place for “salad & fries.” It’s also the sister restaurant to Oxford Exchange, so you can expect the same level of vibes.
Wild Child: If you’re looking for something a little more causal but still worth your while, this is the spot. Full bar and a patio? Say less. Not to mention it’s located right on Central, just a short walk from other bars and restaurants if you want to keep the party going. Cocktails and Lost & Found just to name a few.
Noble Crust: known as one of the best Italian restaurants in St. Petersburg with a Southern twist. There is indoor seating as well as an outdoor patio with a retractable roof, & plenty of open space for a large party. It’s in the north part of St. Pete, so we recommend checking it out if your staying in St. Pete but heading to Tampa for the day. It will be on your way.
ST PETE BEACH: Even if you’re not staying on the beach, here are a few places to grab brunch, breakfast, or a quick coffee before settling in to your perfect beach day.
The Helm: Voted one of the top 10 restaurants in St. Pete Beach. Fresh food, beautiful presentation, & an awesome location for those who want to stay close to the beach. We give it a 10/10. Closest to our Treasure Island & Upham locations.
82 Degrees: casual beach vibes but make it trendy. The restaurant is attached to The Saint Hotel with views overlooking the water. Closest to our Upham location, just a 5 min walk!
Quick breakfast & coffee spots:
La Croisette or Frog Pond: Conveniently located right next to each other. Think diner vibes with large portions, great for the girls staying on St. Pete Beach and need something quick after a night out.
The Sea Horse: Breakfast like a local. This place is iconic. You’ll feel right at home! Also quick & casual. Perfect spot to grab a bite before hitting your cabana setup on Pass A Grille Beach.
Grove Surf + Coffee: An absolute must! The cutest little coffee shop/surf shop. We DEFINITELY recommend grabbing coffee here before settling in to your cabana on the beach. It is closest to our Upham Beach location, but also makes sense for our St. Pete Beach or Treasure Island girlies.
let’s talk DAYTIME ACTIVITIES…
Obviously one of the days should be dedicated to absolutely enjoying the day with your besties on our perfect white sand, crystal blue water, beaches. A day with The Cabana Club is the perfect day time activity, but if you’re looking to fill the itinerary here are few additions!
ST. PETE BEACH
Beach Day with The Cabana Club: this one is a must for obvious reasons. Grab your girls and enjoy the cutest stress-free beach day.
Boat Cruise with Justin: Take a cruise with our favorite local captain! He is SURE to show you and your group a good time. We also recommend heading out for sunset after a day on the beach with us, your vibes would be unmatched.
Levique Tours: Located not too far from St. Pete Beach, on Maderia beach in John’s Pass. Super close to our location on Treasure Island at 124th Ave. They offer tiki boats and water sports! The perfect post-beach experience.
Permanent Jewelry with Link X Lou: Permanent Jewelry that comes to you! We love our girl Katie. She even has an option to book your permanent jewelry experience under your Cabana Club set up on the beach. What better way to memorialize your perfect beach day!?
Private Yoga with Centered Practices: We love a private yoga sesh, but we love one on the beach even more! If you’d like to go beachside, you have an option to add her services on when you a book a cabana! She’ll also meet your group at the Airbnb if you prefer. Use code CABANAYOGA for 30% off your booking.
TAMPA BAY
Sparkman Wharf: This modern waterfront area located in Channelside has an array of hip restaurants & shops, a beer garden & street-food stands. Great way to have fun & enjoy the beautiful weather at the same time, & you definitely won’t go hungry!
Armature Works: This striking mixed-use event space has tons of food options in their food court as well as a full bar & lounge. Be sure to hit the connected rooftop bar M.Bird for breathtaking views of Downtown Tampa!
Kraken Cycleboats: It’s like a boat, paddle pub, and bike all mixed in to one!? It’s a pedal pub for the water! This super cool cycleboat will take you down the iconic Tampa Riverwalk. It’s a great way to get the party started and see everything Tampa has to offer…from the water.
ST PETERSBURG
Pedal Pub: If you're looking for a bar-hopping mural tour party in Downtown St. Pete, this is it! You and your friends will power the bikes while you sing, drink & enjoy a 2-hour tour through the city, making two to three stops at bars & breweries along the way!
Bar Hoping in Downtown St. Pete: We recommend starting at Parks & Rec (an indoor adult playground with old school arcade gaming) and then making your way over to Central avenue where you’ll find tons of bars & restaurants. Goodnight JohnBoy is an absolute MUST. More of a nighttime stop, but they open at 2 on the weekends for our early birds.
Permanent Jewelry at Sadie + Sky: Conveniently located in Downtown St. Pete! It’s the perfect stop on any day and the cutest way to memorialize the trip with your girls! They provide a bottle of bubbles, but you can also BYOB and make it a lil party while everyone picks out their pieces.
Candle Making at Candle Pour: The most fun custom candle-making experience! Create your own candle from your choice of over 100 different fragrance oils. It takes about 45 min-an hour and then 2 hours before it’s ready to go. There’s bars and restaurants conveniently located within walking distance, perfect for while you wait! We recommend checking out GreenBench Brewery or No Vacancy.
Private Pottery Class at Sugar Cream Clay: Literally so fun! You can book a private party for up to 20 people. You’ll take turns in groups of 4 to create a functional piece of pottery to take home! You’ll get to take over the place with your own spotify playlist, BYOB, and bring your own food!
Rooftop Bars for Sunset & Vibes
TAMPA BAY
The Edition: THE. VIEW. Seriously breathtaking. Not to mention their interior design team definitely knew what they were doing. You and your girls will have to get tons of photos if you end up checking it out here! Photo ops for days
JW Marriott: They call their rooftop Beacon; It is Tampa's highest (& second highest in Florida) public rooftop cocktail & dining spot! You can count on more stunning views of Downtown Tampa here.
ST PETERSBURG
Canopy at Birchwood: While maintaining its class, this bumpin’ spot is a little more casual but versatile & great for happy hour and apps. Not to mention most of the time they have a live DJ to set the vibes just right!
Pier Teaki: For a little more casual approach, this rooftop still overs amazing views. Located at the peak of the Pier, you’ll have a full panorama view of the water and the rest of the Pier.
ST PETE BEACH
Dewey’s Rooftop: Looking for a gorgeous rooftop bar with gentle sea breezes and a fiery sunset view of the Gulf of Mexico? And a full menu of elevated "beach cuisine? This place is sure to check all these boxes! We are obsessed with their cocktails.
Our Favorite Dinner Spots
TAMPA
Meat Market: We mentioned this one for dinner, but if you’re looking for a fun, upscale steakhouse this is your place.
Ulelè: Right on Tampa’s Riverwalk and next door to Armature works. This place has an interesting Florida based menu and great vibes. More casual than our other picks.
OLIVIA: Modern Italian, casual sophisticated, perfect for dining or just grabbing drinks before a night out.
Timpano: “The best espresso martini I’ve ever had in my life. I think they won an award for it.” -Tara, our social media girlie. Can we also talk about the CHEESE WHEEL. We die. We know the table-side service thing can be a little cheugy but trust us, this isn’t just for show.
ST. PETE
Good Fortune: This place is perfect for a fun Bach dinner! Their menu is full of small plates, sushi, and amazing craft cocktails. It’s more of a lounge vibe for dinner, complete with a DJ and gorgeous bar area. Plus they have karaoke in the back!
Fortu: This restaurant is new to town, but definitely making a name for itself! Think elevated Pan-Asain cuisine and elegant, upscale vibes. Put this one on the groom’s tab.
Stillwater Tavern, BellaBrava, or Cassis: These neighboring restaurants will put you in the heart of Beach Drive which is a great place to begin your adventures in Downtown St. Pete! All of the menus have something different to offer, but the vibes are all pretty comparable!
Allelo: Right on Beach Drive! The vibes are so cute and cozy. Think elevated Mediterranean, small plates, and delicious drinks. The bar to die for. It’s right next to the Canopy at Birchwood for pre or post dinner rooftop drinks.
ST. PETE BEACH:
We recommend hitting up Downtown St. Pete for dinner if you are staying on the beach! The beach tends to slow wayy down after sunset. However, the following recommendations have amazing food if you’re just looking for food and not too worried about a vibe. They are both on your way to DTSP, so the perfect stop on your way out on the town.
Sushi Rock Grill: We eat here at least once a week. They’re St. Pete legends, the customer service is always on point, and we think they have the best sushi in all of Tampa Bay. Perfect for takeout before a sunset beach picnic.
Seaworthy: A local neighborhood spot with amazing food. Think seafood, great drinks, and local vibes. Their sister restaurant is Brick + Mortar in DTSP (also amazing food).
& if you need a place to stay, here’s what we recommend:
TAMPA: JW Marriott, Godfrey Hotel & Cabanas, & Hotel Haya
