Datz On Riverwalk; New Café Opens At Sail Plaza

TAMPA, FL — Just in time for the downtown Fourth of July festivities, the Tampa Convention Center and its partners at Aramark announced the opening of Datz Riverwalk Café.

Part of The Sail Plaza at 333 S. Franklin St., the café is located on the Riverwalk in front of the convention center. It is open for mornings only — Tuesday through Sunday from 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

Renovated in 2019, The Sail Plaza, Tampa’s only 360-degree waterfront restaurant and bar, is already home to Big Ray's Fish Camp, which is open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day.

The family- and dog-friendly spot offers refreshments to Riverwalk visitors including dog biscuits, water bowls and even dog ice cream in pup cups to help Fido cool down on a hot day.

Part of the popular Datz restaurant group founded in South Tampa and now in St. Petersburg and Riverview, the Datz Riverwalk Café will include menu items such as cafe con leche, cordadito and chocolate caliente made with Tampa's own Cafe Bustelo; breakfast sandwiches, such as the vegan croissantwich; Datz doughnuts; and cocktails like the Datz-A-Mary and the Morning Margarita.
