Angry Chair Brewing Tampa is a brewery and taproom at 4101 N Florida Ave in Seminole Heights. If you're planning a night out and want a bar in Tampa with a relaxed, unfussy feel, the taproom is a good place to start. The brewery leans on stouts, which the business says is what it's best known for, but the tap list also rotates through IPAs, sours and porters.
The beer side is a big part of the appeal. The brewery says it doesn't always brew to style and keeps experimenting, and it has won a gold medal for its pilsner. Flights aren't served, but you can order 5 oz. Pours. Staff can help you pick something that fits your taste.
What to Expect at Angry Chair Brewing Tampa
The taproom has 24 taps, and some beers are available in cans or bottles to take home from the cooler. Inside you'll find seven TVs, a dog-friendly patio, and mood lighting with dimmer switches. The decor is eclectic, with wood and metal throughout and art from Will Ralston, Veronica Steiner and Timur, the artists behind the brewery's labels. The music is usually metal, and you'll often hear "Africa" by Toto.
The space has plenty of seating, so you won't have to fight for a spot at the bar. A full kitchen is on site. Current specials include happy hour Monday through Friday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m., Italian-style Tuesdays with fried spaghetti sandwiches, chicken parm subs and meatball subs served all day, and wings all day Wednesday.
