Over 50 Tampa: Westchase

Westchase · brewpub, american, pub food

The Doble family founded Tampa Bay Brewing Company in 1995 and opened its first brewpub in a two-story brick building on 15th Street in Ybor City in February 1997, in a room that used to house horses. The Westchase site came in 2015 as a production brewery with a restaurant attached, tucked into a business park off Linebaugh, and it is where most of the beer is now made. The own site says it is 'still a family run company with David Doble as the leader for all operations.' Both taprooms run 24 rotating taps, a full service kitchen, and what the brewery calls large outdoor patio spaces, with a food menu built to use its own beer rather than sit next to it.

Westchase · vietnamese

Vuon Xoai is a Vietnamese farm, tropical nursery and restaurant on a residential street off Westchase, and the name translates as Mango Garden. From the road it reads as an ordinary block; behind it are fruit trees, thatched huts, hammocks and vintage Vietnamese scooters, and walking the grounds costs nothing. The kitchen serves whole grilled chicken, crawfish, snails, chicken feet salad, noodles, fresh sugarcane juice and coconut water, and the farm sells tropical fruit in season with mangoes usually ready in July. That's So Tampa found it in July 2026 and called it a hidden Vietnamese farm most of the city has never heard of.
