When it comes to live music in Ybor City, Crowbar has a special place in our hearts.  This six-year-old bar and live music venue off 17th avenue has grown into a prime destination for a variety of concerts and live entertainment in its dive-y, neighborhood setting over the years.

While huge, mega-venues like the Tampa Bay Times Forum or the 1-800-ASK-GARY Amphitheatre have their perks, there's nothing like seeing some of your favorite bands or some new up-and-comers in a smaller venue like Crowbar.

From electronica to folk, alt-rock, heavy metal, and more, Crowbar has played host to a handful of great acts hailing from the Tampa Bay area and beyond where music lovers have gotten to witness some of their favorite bands in the intimate setting only a few bars like Crowbar can provide.

But Crowbar isn't strictly a live music venue.  The Ybor City bar is open seven nights a week serving up a huge assortment of craft beers, cocktails, and more guests can enjoy inside the bar or on Crowbar's expansive beer garden outside the venue.  The beer garden also plays host to several weekly events including Karaoke on Mondays, All Good Tuesdays, DaCypher Wednesdays, and Ol Dirty Sundays.

Sound fun?  Head out to Crowbar and see for yourself why this Ybor City bar is one of the leading live music venues in the Tampa Bay area.  Then, let us know what you think with your own rating and review on the Crowbar 813area business listing.
