Cappy's calls itself 'Tampa's favorite pizza joint since 1995' and works out of a small room on North Florida Avenue packed with vintage signs and junk-shop decor. It is one of the few places in town making Chicago deep dish alongside New York thin crust, and the menu carries vegan options as well. It opens for dinner only, from 4pm at weekends and 5pm on weekdays.
Family Friendly Tampa: Seminole Heights
Tree-shaded bungalow streets from the early 1900s that became Tampa's independent restaurant corridor, spread across Old, South and Southeast Seminole Heights. Florida Avenue and Nebraska Avenue carry the breweries, the barbecue and the small rooms that opened here because the rent was cheap and the porches were good.
Trips Diner opened on March 12, 2012 on North Florida Avenue in Seminole Heights and is named after the owners' triplets, Libby, Will and John. Its own description of itself is modest on purpose: a not-too-fancy neighbourhood restaurant that offers a variety of simple food. Breakfast is served all day, alongside salads, sandwiches, meatloaf, pasta and chicken. The family also runs diners in St. Petersburg and Seminole, which are in Pinellas County and out of this site's scope.
