It’s official: The Channel District is happening. Read on for some of the exciting developments happening in that neighborhood and beyond this season, plus a look at the downtown cultural events in November and December. 

Pane Rustica

Pane Rustica & Cress

Armature Works’ Heights Public Market recently welcomed these two new concepts. Pane Rustica Due is the second location for the South Tampa staple, serving up paninis, pastas (like tagliatelle Bolognese and spinach ravioli), and a variety of pastries. Cress is a health-conscious eatery with custom fresh, seasonal salads and bowls, plus soups.

Union Three

Opening this fall in the Channel District, Union Three is all about building relationships through fitness. Expect good vibes and great music pumping through the studio’s classes, which include indoor cycling and three different hot yoga options (called UFlow, UTone and UBurn, respectively). The studio will offer class memberships and packages, and it will host pop-up classes around town until their location officially opens. Class details are available on the Union Three app.

Gelato-go

A number of new additions will be moving into the storefronts around Grand Central at Kennedy in the coming months, including this dessert spot. Originally opened in South Beach, Gelato-go uses fresh ingredients to make the base for its Italian gelato each day. Beyond gelato, you’ll also find dairy-free sorbetto, coffee, espresso and Italian pastries. Gelato-go is expected to open by year’s end.

La La’s Sangria Bar

Another new addition to downtown’s dining and drinking scene, La La’s is promising salads, tapas and flatbreads, plus a full bar, eight flavors of house-made sangria and craft beer. The lounge is already building out indoor and outdoor seating space at its location on the first floor of the Slade building. Opening is slated for late October.

Ground Foods Cafe

Vegans and vegetarians, rejoice. Ground Foods Cafe is an entirely plant-based Italian eatery, with all dishes made vegan by default using olive oil and almond and cashew “cheeses.” Menu options include rigatoni alla vodka, pesto pasta and fusili primavera, plus salads and toasts. The focus on organic and natural foods extends to the wine list, where selections include unfiltered and organic selections imported from small vineyards in Italy.

King of the Coop

King of the Coop

This Seminole Heights restaurant recently expanded into its neighboring storefront. The Nashville hot chicken joint is adding more fried chicken options, plus brunch items, to its menu. With the additional kitchen space, King of the Coop will also begin offering delivery through services like UberEats and Postmates later this fall. Finally, restaurant general manager Ryan Deitke will launch his cookie company Pretty Baked exclusively on UberEats out of the Coop’s second kitchen.

Ybor Beverage Co.

Now open in historic Ybor, this coffee and wine bar serves up the best that Tampa’s local food and beverage businesses have to offer. The cafe’s menu includes coffee drinks made with beans from Zeal Coffee Roasters, breads and pastries from La Segunda, Gulf Coast Sourdough and Alessi, MADE cold brew, Coppertail beers, and more.
