There’s a fun new wine bar, billed as the first dedicated wine bar in downtown Tampa, that’s prefect for a slightly spooky date night. Dracula’s Legacy is already a celebrated institution in neigboring downtown St. Pete. It has a huge curated selection of fine wines, in addition to light bites and melty fondue. It’s bringing that same energy to 811 N Tampa St.

First, let’s talk about the food. Pull up a chair next to the Dracula statue and protect yourself with some cheesy garlic bread. Other items include dates wrapped in prociutto and stuffed with goat cheese, steamy cheese fondue, a giant pretzel with beer cheese dip, truffle-topped Italian flatbreads, brie cheese platter and French onion soup.

This venue is know for its live event programming in St. Pete, so we recommend you keep up with them on Facebook and Instagram to see what they have planend for the new Tampa spot.

It’s definitely a date night venue if you’re into the spooky vibes. Their dedication to themeing the decor around Vlad The Imapler is commendable.
