Went on a Tuesday at 11 and started off the night by paying a $10 cover charge. **Was aware of the guest list but the link wasn't working properly. Cons: Got on here to read reviews and noticed a review about using credit cards. I checked my bank account and the charge that was on there was double what it should have been. Hostile door guys: When I got there, there was a cocky door guy holding up the line to let people in. When I went to walk in there was a door guy blocking the door way. Even got bumped into for no apparent reason. I'm 6'2 215...these guys are either underpaid or more concerned about who their competition is. Drink Prices: After I paid $10 cover, I bought a Redbull Vodka which was $10..and tipped $2. The charge on my bank account ended up being $25. Underage: I'm not aware if underage (under 21) are allowed but the door guys had no issue handing out drinking wristbands to underage. It was pretty obvious after talking to a few women (18 and 20) that this was a normal thing. Witnessed the 20yr old throwing up before I left. Pros: The atmosphere and setup of the bar wasn't bad. I've always enjoyed the different venues within the bar. Probably one of the busier bars on a Tuesday. .....I don't think I'll be coming back anytime soon.

i did not pay $50 to be manhandled by y’all’s staff— im 20, and was holding my 21 year old boyfriends drink for a second because he was tired of holding it and the security saw me holding the cup, came over, grabbed me aggressively by my wrists and waist and i had to yell at the security guard to get off of me that i can walk myself out of the building. was extremely upset, uncomfortable, and angry, there was no reason for him to be so rude with me and no reason for him to kick me out for holding a cup. nor was there any reason for him to grab me period and got mad when i told him to stop touching me. he should be fired! horrible place will never go back 1000000% do not recommend, got SA’d as well by another attendee. the security was more concerned about the cup than my safety. absolutely disgusting place. not worth the entry fee

As soon as I walked in went straight for the bathroom. Stood in line for 15min as there is only one urinal. When I got in the bathroom attendant told me if I kept talking trash he was going to have me thrown out. The weird part was he was looking at the wall when he was yelling. I asked him if he was talking to me. He repeated himself, I told him I did not know what he was talking about as I had not said anything to him. He grabbed his radio and called for security as if I was threatening him. Two bouncers came and grabbed me mid stream and walked me out. Left out of there dumbfounded. Took my 3 friends I came with, called the 2 girls outside that I went there to meet and I spent my money in Soho and had a good time there instead. This place needs to check their bathroom attendant. A couple more toilets would be nice as well.

Owners and management do not care about the surrounding community and neighborhoods and continue to allow and encourage loud, disruptive behavior inside and outside of the establishment. Furthermore, the patrons who have visited or are waiting to enter the establishment are free to walk and explore the neighborhood of families who are adjacent to the club and act in an incredibly disruptive manner which is incredibly intrusive and invasive to families who have an actual work schedule to adhere to. This establishment is an eyesore and an earsore to the local neighborhood and serves no purpose existing in this neighborhood. The volume of music is a direct violation of the noise ordinance and multiple calls to TPD have resulted in no action.

This place charged me $9 (plus I tipped $2) for 2 bottles of luke warm tap water!!! I still have the bottle to prove! They are a clear cylinder shaped 16.9 fl.oz bottle with big letters VOSS on the side, the clear barcode sticker on the side was already torn before I opened it! I am not a dummy, I can taste the difference between bottled water and tap water and I can also tell when something has been opened before. This place seemed like they spent so much effort and money to "brand" their club HPC that it is funny to me that they would actually serve you a bottle of tap water at their establishment! We will never go back! Lord knows if their that cheap then I can only imagine how much liquor they give you!

Super undercover racist. Tommy Ortiz is the owner and is not white but feels he is by acceptance. He is a shady business man who stays being sued....He only likes non Alpha submissive Black men who submit to his will.. If you are proud to be black don't go there . They play a lot of Black music but don't really want you there dancing of it looking naturally cool when in fact they really are not... He owned the cheap restaurant that got shut down because Tommy Ortiz is the slime ball of the year. Stay away from the Kennedy nite club also. Another Racist club owned by Tommy Ortiz His loyal co racist servant is a Asian DJ named Jask he will play like he cool with blacks but only likes house neegros

I hate this club , went on a Friday night (Latin night )the music is good , I like the style and vibes of the club, but they LET TOO MANY PEOPLE IN, every song I tried to dance too I got hit in the face and was ready just to get kicked out and fight these drunks that don’t know how to not jump around and realize it’s too small to be doin the most it’s good and all but they should only allow a certain amount of people in. I feel like it’s worst than prana on a Saturday night honestly!!! At prana it doesn’t get pack enough that your hitting people in the face like that. Other than that , club was nice

Horrible place! Came their with a perfectly fine front end on my civic and when I come to leave the whole front lip and bumpers hanging off, chipped multiply and damaged all over!!! Will never go back or recommend to anybody! Also manager was really rude and said I came with my vehicle like that saying its my fualt when they obviously have 3 foot long potholes in the back where they take your vehicle's to park, if your car is even the slightest bit lowered you've ben warned dont make the same mistake I made letting someone else park your vehicle with a haggard road like they have!!!

The vibe was cool because of my friends however I can see why they are getting slow business. The bouncer at the door was rude and short with me, miserable person. The bar tenders were very rude as well I couldn’t believe they thought so highly of themselves and looked down on others with their attitude I was literally one of the few people actually buying drinks for them, and leaving a tip they sucked! I work in service industry too and I wouldn’t want to work here to save my life! I felt I un welcomed and despised what a disgrace of a club! Ybor is where it’s at

Beware ------ check your bank account - I went there on a Friday Night with some girlfiends, had a good time - bought a drink with my credit card which was $11.00 gave cash tip that night instead of my card when I reviewed my bank account I notice they decided to add their own tip of $3.00 and the same thing happened to my friend that night as well she also gave a cash tip and not on her card wow her add on tip was $9.50 - our banks have been notified of the credit card fraud ---------- but beware this may happen to you

Frankly, I'm 44 years young and I have no clue what these folks in theri 30's and 40's are yapping about?! Dude, it's a party club where you go and do THAT! My wife and I skateboard down there from our house on Albany...the bouncers even agree to hold onto our Loaded and Carver skateboards in a secure location while we go in and party...Wife is 37 and I'm 44...we simply haven't had one issue there in over a year of living in SOHO / Hyde Park! So far = HPC is a class act imho. Skate Rat at 40+...get it!

Bouncers are trash, you slide them a $20 bill and they give you a 21+ band if your underage seen it plenty of times and i even have evidence hahaha. There's two of them at the entrance those are the ones I'm speaking about mainly the skinny bald one. The drinks are worth the money here meaning the bartenders are good and the music is usually good. (Bad rating bc of the Bouncers get rid of those two then you'll be good)

I used to come here years ago and going here now, especially after it was closed during covid, is not the same as it used to be. They stopped serving hookahs a while ago, before covid. The DJ seems like he's in his own bedroom just playing around with songs and remixes, it's not good anymore. Also, they had all that time during quarantine and after to renovate what I was told they'd be renovating, and still have not. Drinks are poured lightly. Just get a beer.

MIA was an amazing bartender. She’s always made sure that we were having a good time and we’re served quickly. She is probably the best bartender at HPC… so if you are planning on having a GOOD time then you’ll have to ask what bar MIA is working at… and stay near that bar. She makes sure that you are having a good time and keeps your cup full as can be! Honestly… if she didn’t work here I would probably take my business elsewhere. HPC is lucky to have her!

Great place for a Friday night happy hour! $10 AYCD is a great deal. Cute indoor / outdoor seating & standing areas. Bartenders pretty quick with service. Lots of underage highschool kids in this bar, definitely way too large of a majority of people under 18. No soda fountain. Drinks were all served with pouring a can of soda which is lined up on the top of the bar. Definitely a place to go if you are under 21, if you are over, you may not want to bother.

great place to visit, would rather see brian busto mix 3 weekends a month and only bring in a headliner 1 weekend, but as money rules so does it with hpc, where he must get a dj allowance and hire people below budget for his own return, actually hurting the biz. i have been playing 25 years and have seen this time and time again. he is a great dj, it should be HIS house on fridays, pay him so he doesn;t have to make money off the laymen.....s.p..

First, they allow too many people for the space and there was an insane amount of weed bring smoked. The real issue I had was “Latin Night”, it is non-existant. Latin night should be all night. It was suppose to start at 11pm according to the manager. Then they played 3-4 reaggeton and thats it. What kindnof latin night is that? Where is the Merengue, Salsa, Bachata. False advertisment...if you are looking for a latin night don’t go here.

Make sure you check your account and keep your receipt! Sketchy! I looked at my account the following day and my tab that was 31.50 plus the $7 Tip came out to a total 38.50 and some how I had an extra charge of $12 Mind you this is the second time this has happened there. Last time I ordered 1 beer and the next day I had a charge of $20! Never again!!! they clearly are pocketing extra money thinking people wouldn’t notice.

Smoke machines and strobe lights were done in both rooms was overkill. Too smoky and the strobes were flashing constantly at times, hard to see or focus & I didn't even drink anything. Bartenders were adept (I got water) and polite. Music good!!! 2 diff rooms but 2nd room by bathrooms were not labeled. I didn't know there were there till half way through my night, maybe they should put some signs on the doors.

Your staff is horrible that old dude at the door was so rude like if I could give it zero stars I would.My first and last time coming.The dude literally put the zip tie so tight on my wrist my hand was turning purple and when I go to get it cut then they tried saying I didn’t pay unbelievable30 dollar cover is a joke for that place.makes sense why it’s 3.5 rated

very decent space with lots of potential. Only young white college kids here so literally felt like I was at a frat house And then the bartenders were so rude Jesus Christ, maybe cuz I’m not a white girl named Sarah. And the music sucked for a good chunk of the night. Anyways, definitely would not come back nor would I recommend this place at all lmao.

Jack was my bartender he was phenomenal made me so comfortable even went out his way to grab my friend and I a bar stool to sit on. You don’t cross this level of customer service often. He went above and beyond. I will definitely be back for him. Wonderful experience! Great ambiance!

I spent last Saturday night here with a few friends. We had a great time! I wanted to see all the rooms, but was having so much fun in the Wally & Bernies room. It was kind of perfect, great music, great bartender, great friends. Now, I just have to go back to see how the other rooms stack up! Thanks so much for a great time, Hyde Park Cafe!

Friday nights are very fun here as it is Spanish night and you can get in free before 12 if you put your name on the guest list online. Great selections of beers, including Stella last time I went. They need to get rid of the Techno room and make it a modern hip hop room so that way it would be Spanish on one side and hip hop on the other!

Went and paid cash to get in, a worker from there forgot to stamp my wrist band. I went to my car to get some water and they didn't want to let me back in even though I paid cash and was already in there dancing for 2 hours! Ruined my experience of going out which is something I seldom do :( recommend Mcdintons better down the street

I love the Hyde Park Cafe. It has 3 different rooms playing different music so no matter what mood I am in I can find my jams just by roaming around. The crowed is mixed and pretty laid back from the two times I've been to this place. I would recommend a big group to go hang out like I did with my Co-workers.

Clearly college kids only (Friday night). Drinks suck. Dj was alright.

A big part of my weekend life while being a student at UT, this place has more of an emotional connection lol. Bumping into friends, drinking cheap beer, dancing the night away and listening to Spanglish music...this has been my weekend life for the past year and a half and it never gets old.

5 stars on fridays other then that 1 star the fell on friday nights is nothing compared to any other day of the week for some reason fridays are full of life and awesome people Saturdays the bouncers are alot more strict and the people are alot more stuck up dont go here unless it's a friday

The place was closed for the night and they didn’t even let anyone know it was closed. They didn’t post on their social media, website, or their hours they would be closed when they are usually open on fridays. Terrible communication on their end and such a disappointment.
Service: 1

would have gave 5 stars but the rude entry fee lady need to learn some respect and customer service towards others, otherwise i really like the layout of the place with the courtyard in the middle, bar tenders were great, speedy and drinks were made really good. will return.

Started off with valet parking $10...cover charge $5(which is ok). The place was not bad but really be aware from using credit cards. They charged me different amounts from actual. Called the bank and took care of it my friend got hit as well! dishonest dirty surroundings

Definitely one of the best places to dance at. There are three rooms with three different types of music playing usually. Some of the bartenders are attentive but a few of them are in their own world taking selfies most of the time. Definitely a good spot to meet people.

It honestly was the worst night of my life. I went with a group of friends and they kicked some of us out for being to drunk but we were not even 2 minutes of being there and haven’t had a sip of alcohol. There prices were way over priced! I will never go here again.

Saturday offered an all you can drink option from 9-11 for $10. The outside patio area is very cozy until it gets busy; however there are many steps and it can be a little precarious for those in heels. The inside bar has a dance floor and seating against one wall.

I retract my last review my advice is go on friday night latin things get popping really quick so get there at happy hour. Cool place to hang out but if you like dancing that dance floor gets crowded very fast so fell the crowd out. Before hitting the dancefloor.

I brought myself in with my dad. A 26 year old and a 60 year old handicap. We got jumped by the bouncers for no reason. Please be careful when coming in here. It is not worth it. Please let me know if you have any questions. Make sure the cameras are working.

absolute worst customer service. i called them 100 times because i lost my wallet, keys and phone, and i needed to get ahold of them. i texted the number the lady left on the voicemail and it's been a whole day and still no response. never coming there again.

It was horrible they didnt play good song or have good Service . They charged me and my friend 30 dollars for entrance and they didnt play any Spanish music or any GOOD MUSIC! It was super HOT outside . BAD!!! Dont go there . 7/5/2016 …

Can't beat $10 happy hour. I suggest getting there early as the line gets very long. My favorite night is Friday, Latin night. Music is very good!! I wish there was more space (maybe make both sections Latin) but the overall experience is fun.

I went on a Friday and the vibes were dead. There was so many people you could barely get to the bar or bathroom. Even a worker said if the fire department came by they’d be introuble for letting in OVER CAPACITY.
Atmosphere: 3

Great place to hang out HAPPY HOUR $10 for allllll you can drink , the music is great . EDM on one side and Latin on Friday nights and hip hop/ Rap on the other side ... The staff is amazing , friendly and their drinks are so good ..

This club plays the absolute worst music on Saturday's. If I ever have to go here again then I will definitely bring headphones so I don’t have to listen to awful Katy Perry edm remix’s. Fridays play good music tho since it’s Latin

Great place to go for good music and not so bad crowd, some are young and others mid 30 but the service is excellente bar tenders know there drinks and really friendly staff from the manager to the hosts... would highly recommend.

The bouncer fired me because I said your price today is higher than the last time!!!! Every time I come to the place and enter from the VIP path the price is $20 but this time he asked for $25 so I asked him why he kicked me out!

Absolutely despicable ownership! The owner was acting belligerently and spoke to members of my party in a disrespectful and crude manner while he was intoxicated. I am disappointed and disgusted. I will NEVER return!!!!

I went on a thursday, heard a lot About it. Showed up early, About 10 pm. It was Not too busy but at around 12:30 this place was bouncing. I Really enjoyed it and the people were great. I recommend it all the way :)

We love coming here the food is good the atmosphere is cool people are nice the crowds look more upscale but we had family fun here also. We definitely recommend everyone to come and enjoy the music and the fun

The Hyde Park Cafe is a staple of modern Tampa club life. It temporarily closed down due to covid and was happy to see it reopen recently. It's setup for 2 rooms with a nice central outside smoking area.

Manager at club is rude to patrons. Floor is ceramic tile so girls, be prepared to slip all night long in your heels b/c they don't bother to pick up spilled drinks. Not the place for upscale women.

Went there for happy hour, was barely able to get anything to drink. The bar looked understaffed as everyone huddled around. Plus the cover is 10 in cash but 12 on card. Make sure you bring cash!!

Great service even with lack of bartenders. I love that it has 3 different rooms. It gives you options of 2 different types of music. And a middle area to talk and meet people without loud music.

Absolutely love this place. $5 unlimited drinks Tuesday's ! DJ was good, until slow songs killed the mood for others Lol . Loved the atmosphere and bartenders were on point! …

Lots of college kids if you are 30+ and mature you will find this place not appropriate for your age.. Drinks are over price although bartenders are super Nice Specially the guy in the back

Great music & atmosphere, however drinks are ridiculously expensive. Ordered Tito’s and whatever came out of that Tito’s bottle was anything but Tito’s… other than that had a great time!

It was alright. Bathrooms need to be remodeled. Drinks are way too expensive. They charged my card more money than they had to. Watch out for your bank account when you go to that place.

If you go you gotta make sure that you try the specials, regardless of what day it might I can assure you that unless you are allergic you are sure to have something you will love

This club is probably the worst club I’ve ever been to other than the kennedy. I would never recommend going to HPC. It’s always overfilled past capacity and the drinks are water.

This place was filled way over capacity. Trashy place, the floor was covered in spilled drinks everywhere and was slippery. Me and my friends felt we wasted money on the cover.

Good drink specials with witty bartenders. We went on hospitality night where there are less people, but more interesting stories and an opportunity to know the staff.

The misogynist culture that runs through the blood of this establishment is shameful. Put your money elsewhere. They also promote underage drinking, it’s a shame.

Really cool place and diverse crowd. Drinks are a little pricey and there's normally a cover of your not "on the guest list" but other than that …

Terrible manager and shady staff. Bathroom tender tried to cut off wrist band for under age drinkers to be able to get drinks. They will kick anybody out

Cody was thee best ! Young people but good mix of crowd, dj wasn't that great though no offense - can't be playing the same song 3 times …

dirty, stinks, the music screams so that it is impossible to talk) why do neighbors tolerate screaming music? there are better places than this!

Never would go back. The most unprofessional, sick bouncers I've ever encountered. Especially the bouncer named, Joe. Nasty, cocky little guy.

There should be a capacity, could barely move. If you’re going to actually dance to bachata, merengue or salsa for Latin night forget it.

I love the happy hour and sometimes they have really good house music goin on. The atmosphere is neat. Feels like you're in some jungle.

Open bar till 10pm, multiple bars inside, good music. Slow on new years week (Tues) but Great vibes overall and would come back again

Currently at the location. Not bad, no rudeness. I currently have an open tab, so I hope I don't break my bank. Wish me luck!

Small little club in the middle of soho. I have always had fun here with 2 different types of music played all the time.

Never going there back again, they choose people randomly and kick them out and ask them to pay again. Happened twice!

The club is not bad if you are 18-21 years old. If you go be prepared to hang out with high school & college kids.

Has the world's most watered down drinks for way to much money. Now I know why this place isnt as packed anymore.

I do like this place lots, the crowd is nice. Sometimes flashy, sometimes chill... I'm general, a great club.

SO FUN. All you can drink for $10 for 2 hours is GREAT. Everyone is up and dancing it was an amazing time.

Bouncers used power to kick me out. And they asked me to pay another entry fee for me to get in again

Unprofessional employees and overrated shot price ( little tiny shot (%80water or juice ))

The place is ok. But people smokes inside the place and it's suffocating. Mostly latino

As someone visiting the area, this met all my expectations of a decent college bar

Bouncers are rude, owner is rude. Save your money and go somewhere more decent.

The bouncer pushed our friend aside for no reason. He was just standing there.

not a terrible deal for happy hour 8-10 fri, 9-11 sat, but way too busy sadly

Im here for Latin night and its not alot of latin music being played. …

Quality depend of the night. The crowds are drastically different every day.

Had a great time out! Fantastic spot especially when it's a nice night out

After all these years still a good vibe and a great place for good music

Had too much fun the other night , I'm still feeling all the fun I had .

Excellent Happy Hour Spot for 18-24 year olds. $10 all you can drink.

I felt way too old for the college aged crowd. Otherwise a good time.

Over priced alcohol, cover charge. deceptive advertisment tactics.

DJ Santana live every Saturday night along with Super Happy Hour!

Bouncer kicked me after someone randomly pushed me. Thanks obama

The place is alright, I’ll have to give it a second go around.

Drinks and happy hour is cheaper but the place allows smoking

Creepy Manager with eye patch buys under age girls drinks.

Got thrown out for no reason!! And asked to pay again

On fridays is really cool and they do Latin night

Was much better before. Too many kids everywhere

Lovely atmosphere, fabulous music, good people.
