Nice dining place for after visiting museum. Stylish design and nice service. Food Taste good, but not amazing. The way menu design is pretty nice though, especially the signature Cuba sandwich and salad half half is helpful for people have hard time make decision. Overall is a nice experience.

This is my new go to spot when I'm in Tampa. The food is awesome and the staff is super friendly, even the chef came out and spoke to us. The best Cuban sandwich in the place where the Cuban sandwich originated. This restaurant has such a rich history.

The food on the menu sounded amazing, but was just okay. Our service was outstanding though. *In addition to original review...Also, we did both ask our server for recommendations. Like I said, she was great other than we overheard her talking to the young lady that served us water. She told the young lady that it's important for her not to help us because our server needs to try to upsell customers..

Fabulous, wonderful and tasty!! Those words describe perfectly the Columbia Cafe. In The heart of Downtown Tampa Bay is a delightful cafe that serves authentic Cuban food. The staff offers exceptional service with help tips on what to order. My friend and I both had the Cuban sandwich with plantain chips. The sandwich was so big we could have shared. The portions we more than generous. The crispy bread was very good and the cost was affordable. Our server Tara was attentive and kind. She offered many options to the meal. Due to time we don’t take her up on her suggestions. If you are in the Tampa area and want a fun, affordable and delicious option, the Columbia Cafe is for you.

In addition to the Local Guide answer (thanks, Patrick): All of our restaurants have received the Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association Seal of Commitment, the highest designation for hospitality safety and sanitation standards. We use disposable, one-use menus. We temporarily have discontinued table-side preparation. Tables are cleaned after each guest departs. Our restaurant is totally disinfected by a third party vendor on a regular basis. Be safe and enjoy.
The Columbia Cafe is at the Tampa Bay History Center, which is indeed across the street from the arena.
Opens at 11 am
We frequently have leashed dogs and their well-behaved owners outside.
The Cafe is across the street of the southeast corner of the arena. It's less than a 5 minute walk to the main gates.
