Good Afternoon readers,
I hope all is well, we here at BrewFeeds are trying to spread our wings and dive into all of what Tampa has to offer. Our newest venture is to a fantastic place that you must seek out. It’s called Cru Cellars, a wonderful wine bar and restaurant it’s a gorgeous spot along south Mac Dill road in the Palma Ceia District of downtown Tampa. The space has an airy open atmosphere with over 350 wines to choose from that are not only everyday sippers and easy on the wallet but are so unique you can’t get anywhere else. In the front of the building there’s a long table for parties or for their Blind Wine tasting events where patrons have to guess what wine is in the paper bag to test out their tongue’s flavor sense. Could it be a medium red? A dry Riesling? I know I’m game to try.
The owner Jennifer has recently renovated a part of Cru creating a very swanky intimate setting that is reminiscent of the flavor within Frank Sinatra’s time. Deep blue velvet booths and mood lighting make it both luxurious and secret. The back of the restaurant has the newly done backsplash in black and white behind the bar and of course the wine garden itself tucked away from the outside cares of the world. Honestly, it’s a gem not to mention their menu is to die for, top favorite menu items such as the Cru Burger and Steak Frittes are the must-have entrees while the cheese curds and of course their cheese selection is phenomenal, but you can never go wrong with cheese.
Cru Cellars brings a lot to the table what with their large selection of affordable wines, light delicious flavors in food and events not to mention a wine club. Now, I’ll give you a tidbit on the wine club because I’m keen on signing up as well, their wine club comes three different ways all involving wine and even a free appetizer to boot each month. The prices vary depending on which membership you choose. I recommend this slice of heaven for a girl’s night, date night or any time honestly, when you need a glass or two inside or out in the moonlight in their secluded wine garden. I give Cru Cellars five stars for ambiance and brilliance, and I can’t wait to go back again for a sip and a sigh of delight.
Something to look forward to in the year 2020, their third location in Westshore Marina on Gandy.
