What a wonderful way to see our beautiful Tampa along the Hillsborough River. Aisha served us and made us a particular priority as it was our first cruise. Brunch menu offers a delightful variety of delicious options . We chose to sit inside in case of bad weather. However we were encouraged to walk about as we pleased and when our food was ready they would find us. I highly recommend this experience for tourists and locals.
We were a party of 8 for a holiday dinner. Make sure you have the email and get the tickets from here. Boarding was simple. We had a nice large table on the port side of the boat. The cruise was lovely with all the holiday lights visible along the Hillsborough River. The service was great; our server was excellent and made sure our glasses were never empty; which was a challenge with 6 of us consuming diet soda throughout. We order an appetizer (not included in the dinner price): the salmon deviled eggs, they were delicious. We had a variety of mains, all were tasty. They can accommodate vegan by modifying one of the seafood dishes. Bread pudding was excellent. I would recommend this for a nice date night or a special occasion.
We did the dinner cruise on Craft in Channelside on Christmas Eve, and it was such a fun and memorable experience. The food and drinks were really good, and everything was well presented and timely. The atmosphere felt festive without being overwhelming, and cruising through the water made it feel extra special for the holiday. It was a refreshing change from the typical Christmas Eve plans and something truly different to do in Tampa. The staff was friendly and attentive, the vibe was relaxed, and the views were beautiful. Overall, it was a unique and enjoyable way to celebrate Christmas Eve, and I’d definitely recommend it for anyone looking to try something outside the box for a special occasion ✨🚤
The ticket price is based upon you choosing a brunch or dinner cruise which starts at $70+ taxes/fees! It maybe a little steep for some but I splurged for my birthday and was well worth it! The drinks, food ,and staff were fantastic and if you're celebrating anything they acknowledge you-there's an option to choose from when making your reservation! It was a great first time experience!🥰🤗
My husband and I were celebrating our wedding anniversary, and the service was above and beyond . They had a little signed card on the table and made us feel so special. All the food was delicious, I had the short rib entree and could barely make a dent ! I wanted to save room for that creme brulee cheesecake and wow it was so scrumptious. We started with the charcuterie board and cleaned the whole thing , so many flavor combinations, it's why charcuterie is awesome. Kassidy was a fantastic and attentive server, as were the rest of the wait staff. The cruise was smooth sailing and very enjoyable. We will very likely come aboard again and recommend to our friends and family. It was very nostalgic as we were married on one of the Starships.
