Fly Bar & Restaurant has closed

The Tampa Bay area cocktail scene has been dealt a huge blow as one of its most beloved haunts, Fly Bar & Restaurant has closed its doors for good or could be relocating… Fly Bar first opened in 2006 then relocated in 2020, located at 442 W Kennedy Blvd.

Reported by Creative Loafing “call and text message to Fly ownership has yet to be returned, so it’s unclear when the longtime local hotspot shuttered, but an overnight security guard outside the concept told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay workers have been moving furniture out for the last couple days. Fly’s website and social media pages are also no more.”
