Tampa has a new addition coming to the Hyde Park neighborhood called, TONIC.  The newest bar to hit Kennedy Blvd, this nightlife lounge features two levels and a beautiful patio decorated with several cabana beds and prime greenery. Their tapas and specialty drink menu are said to be unlike anything Tampa has seen before.

The official Red Carpet Grand Opening of TONIC in Tampa will launch on Saturday May 21st, hosted by Nocturnal Productions. Doors will be open at 10pm but get there early in attempt to beat the crowd. VIP reservations can be requested by calling 727-455-5665 but are limited so make the call sooner than later. Valet is also available at TONIC alleviating the stress of finding parking.

TONIC will continue to offer weekly happy hours with Friday’s happy hour beginning at 4pm, with all other nights opening at 9pm. The list of weekly events include:

  • Thursdays – Socialite & College Night; Top 40 Mash Ups
  • Fridays – 4pm to 6:30pm Happy Hour; 2 for 1 Cocktails
  • Fridays – 6:30pm to 9:30pm; $15 All U Can Drink!
  • Fridays – Epic Ladies Night; Top 40/Hip Hop
  • Saturdays – Nocturnal’s “Guilty Pleasure” Vegas-style open format/Top 40/Requests

Happy Hour includes draft beers, house wines and single liquor cocktails with a live pianist playing and singing requests from both the past and present. Tampa’s new TONIC will also have their venue available, upon request, for special events like weddings, fashion shows and more.

Make sure to get your VIP reservations for this event or come on out and join the crowd of fabulous people with the right idea. This is one night not to be missed; see you there!
