The vibe

A massive 15,000 sq ft waterfront venue on Tampa's Harbour Island Riverwalk with four full-service bars, a raw bar, and sweeping water views from both indoor and outdoor seating. American Social is one of Tampa's premier happy hour destinations — the raw bar, the oysters, the 50% off drinks program, and the Riverwalk backdrop make it a perennial crowd-pleaser.
