If you're anything like us, a handful of good food and/or drink specials at an awesome bar and restaurant can go a pretty far way in your book of great places to hang, drink, and dine at in the Tampa Bay area.  The Lodge, located in SoHo near Hyde Park, is definitely one of these places.

In addition to their standard fare of delectable bar foods and expertly-crafted drinks from the bar, The Lodge offers a handful of great specials throughout the week perfect for anyone hitting the town on a budget.

On Wednesdays, The Lodge hosts WTF Wednesdays where they serve an assortment of special food and drink deals, all for a WTF-worthy $5.  Stop by and enjoy everything from burgers to sushi rolls, full pizzas, a dozen wings, and assorted domestic beer pitchers, all for a mere $5.

If the middle of the week isn't your thing, the Lodge also hosts Sneaky Sundays, their weekly day party that kicks off at 4 p.m. every Sunday.  Anyone in the service industry (with valid proof) gets 51% off the entire menu at The Lodge.  In addition, DJs including Pedro M., Tony Faline, VJ Blaze, DJ Fresh, DJ Knex, DJ Heist, DJ Alvaro, and DJ Gemini will spin all throughout the day.

The Lodge also has a variety of other specials throughout the week including Sushi Tuesday with $5 sushi rolls, Ladies Night Thursdays where groups of four or more ladies get a free bottle of champagne, and Happy Hour everyday from 11:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. with $3 select drafts, $4 select wines, $5 sangrias, $5 Svedka calls, and much more.
