World of Beer

So glad this place closed! It gave the WOB franchise a bad name! I live in LOL and would drive to any other WOB besides this one! Worst service! They got what they deserved!

Have been to this WOB location at least 15 times. More times than not, we experience terrible service. Last night (a Saturday night) there wasn’t a waitress or bartender who wanted to be there and most certainly gave off the impression they didn’t want us there either. Our waitress seemed put out that we asked to see a menu for selections, and on more than one occasion we had to go to the bar ourselves to order another beer. Also, while this bar is open till 2am, at 12:30 the waitress came and told us the manager is doing last call early. As we left, we could see other patrons receiving more beers, and it just so happened to be the fiancé of the bartender who was receiving them. This used to be the only decent bar in the area but with current employees and management, I can see why there were only 5 other patrons in the bar on a Saturday night. Everybody wants to get paid, but no one wants to work.

Every time I have tried to give this location another shot, the bartenders are rude and cater to the people they know. Last time, the two girls were too busy chatting with their boyfriends to even get us refills. They stood at the end of the bar, giggling and chatting. They let their boyfriends bring in liquor and kept it under the counter for refills. One plus is they had a local young guy singing one night and he was excellent!

Tons of craft beer on tap and lots of choices in bottles too. Situated in a shopping plaza with Publix its a nice place to have a beer before going shopping. It’s always nice and open with spacious outside and inside seating. If you’re in the mood to watch more than one sporting event this is an ideal spot. The menu is loaded to an iPad so you can browse the huge selection they have on hand.

love going here and always have the right beer for me

Beer is good and selection is great. I do think these guys are missing the boat by not offering any type of food. Snacks or appetizers would add a huge boost to their business

More like World of NO Beer… Looked at beer lists. First beer picked, sorry we’re out of stock on that. Second beer, sorry that Seasonal, it was a flippin Corona light my girlfriend ordered… After the 9^th beer finally got one they had… So they have no food and a 10% chance of having a beer they list having, why should we go there again?

I am not a beer snob but I like it at WOB. They let me sample all the draft beers so that I am happy with my decision. No food, but you can bring something in from neighboring restaurants. Music is loud, so it is hard to have a conversation. WOB is clean and they do like to support local charities.

Meh. Was not impressed with their selection of handles at all. Country music blaring the whole time and no food. Also, bartender kept calling me ma’am which made me feel like an old lady.
On the upside: VERY clean. Great layout with plenty of outdoor seating. Will stick to Brass Tap or WOB Brandon.

I was a little disappointed as this location didn’t have very many games. Just corn hole. which is fine but I was expecting more since the other locations have lots and I had promised my little cousin a game of life size jenga. .
This place was so hard to find. .The one sign I saw was at the very bottom of the publix sign and it was covered by bushes. It took me 2 times to even see it to begin with. There’s nothing from 54 that indicates a wob either especially in the day time.
Other than that typical wob with a nice big patio and plenty of beers.

Decent beer selection but had no specials or incentives for ordering beer from Big Storm when they visited the bar Friday night. The waitress disappeared out back for a while making it difficult to get drink or your tab. Good DJ but acoustics in the room make it impossible to carry on conversations. Food is allowed in as they don’t serve any and watch your bill.. it’s often incorrect.

World of Beer is decent place to spend Sunday afternoons watching football games. It is bright and clean with numerous television screens all easily visible to you wherever you sit. They offer lots of different options of beer from crafts to corporate, draft to bottled. You can drink in or take out. One downfall is that World of Beer doesn’t have their own kitchen to make food. They do have a man who grills up meat based meals on Sundays during football season. For the vegetarians it is right in the vicinity of Moe’s and Pizza Suprema II (who will deliver). World of Beer allows you to bring food from either of these places in.
Another downfall is the spotty wifi. We’ve tried to hold two fantasy drafts here. Some people have had no difficulty at all and some people wound up overpaying for Matt Forte and missing out on Cole Hamels completely (the latter being me, I wasn’t happy).
I’m not a drinker so for my drink of choice, water, World of Beer is second to none. The water flows freely and is ice cold thanks to the eager waitresses who don’t forget about you even if you are drinking the free stuff. Some restaurants don’t even fill the water that good.
Cold water, good employees, a brightly lit establishment and easy access to televisions. I can’t ask for much more than that.
Except for maybe better wifi.

The other WOBs are better in my opinion. I knew more about the beers than the bartender. Disappointing…

Thnk you October!!! With that WOB LoL stepped up and got my favorite beer on tap… This is why I keep coming back! Cheers!

Great selection of beer, fun live music and great place to watch a game!
Mondays are Service Industry Night, you can get a free card that will get you half off drafts that night.
Thursdays are ladies night, which we get half off wines and select drafts!
My favorite beers are Bitburger, German beer, Black and Blue, Guinness and Blueberry beer or Blue Moon.
On select nights, they have live music which is always fun listening to someone new, its very chill and relaxing. They have a great outdoor area aw well that has fans in the summertime and heaters when its cold.
Service is usually great, never had a bad time!

Good place to get your fix for some good beer, on draft and bottled. You can buy beer to go in bottles as well and you get a discount for taking it with you.
The actual space looks like your typical chain, so -.5 stars for that (I would prefer a more unique atmosphere) and another -.5 stars for the lack of food options, you can bring your own food or order from Moe’s or Pizza Suprema II and they will deliver to you. I would prefer some sort of bar bites, but I realize that would require more work on their end and obviously they aren’t into that.

I have been to most of the WOB locations in the Tampa Bay area and this is my favorite. The atmosphere is more relaxed and low key than the others. Even when the place is busy it isn’t overcrowded. Also, the staff is fantastic and friendly. The outdoor seating area is also good.

Love World of Beer! First and foremost the BEER selection is great. They have a huge variety of revolving draft beers and if you can’t find one on tap that suites you they have an endless array of bottles to choose from. The bar staff is friendly and knows their stuff when it comes to beer and helping you narrow down some options. They will go out of their way to get you samples to make sure you’re happy with your selection. There are several comfortable areas to pull up a chair here too whether you want to belly up to the bar, enjoy a nice evening outside or any of their large high tops inside.
