Craft Tampa

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.

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.

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.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Craft Tampa on New Year’s Eve during their river cruise dinner. From start to finish, the evening felt special and thoughtfully curated. Cruising along the river while enjoying the city views was the perfect way to celebrate the holiday. The food was exceptional—beautifully prepared, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Each course felt elevated and well-timed, allowing us to relax and enjoy the experience without feeling rushed. The service was equally impressive: attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming, which made the night feel even more memorable. This was a standout New Year’s Eve experience, and we would highly recommend Craft Tampa’s river cruise dinner to anyone looking for great food, outstanding service, and a unique way to celebrate a special occasion.

The food was absolutely delicious, every bite tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The waterfront view made the whole experience feel peaceful and special, and the staff were incredibly kind and attentive. Such a beautiful spot—I can’t wait to come back. 🌊✨

My boyfriend and I had a great time! We went on the dinner cruise and Abigail was an amazing server, great hospitality and fast service. The food was excellent, I got the coffee crusted filet and my boyfriend got the duck, from the first course to the last it was an amazing experience. It was nice to have view from our dinner table and also be able to walk around the boat and look around.

This was a great brunch cruise. The vessel was very clean with a great atmosphere of dim lights and music in the covered outdoor dining area, all crew members were extremely friendly and the food was AMAZING. Stuffed brioche French toast and the steak and eggs are highly recommended. In light of it being Halloween my hunny made a jack o lantern on pike for our server Abigail who was friendly, polite and funny! They even had a birthday card on the table for me ❤️
