While my 1st night grabbing drinks here made me want to give this two stars based on the evening bartenders, a second late afternoon stop changed my opinion. The 2 male bartenders were attentive, friendly, & knowledgeable. The bar attracts a lively & fun crowd that makes you feel welcome. Live music in the evening also set this bar higher than other bars.

Such an awesome establishment! If I could rate it 20 stars I would.

Josh Boughton

Not a lot of real venues left in St. Pete but Thirsty First is definitely a proper bar. Central location, huge space, great drinks and bar food that’s top notch. Come here to drink and people watch!

Olya Schaefer

Great place downtown, definitely worth a stop and check out the amazing atmosphere!

Patrick Clark

Thirsty First is the best sports bar in downtown St Pete.

When I moved to Florida, I stumbled upon thirsty first while walking downtown and decided to walk in on a whim. 8 years later, it’s still my favorite spot in Saint Pete. Good food, great atmosphere, amazing staff, and easily my favorite spot for football/hockey season. Just to prove i’m not biased, if I had to say 1 bad thing, it’s they took my favorite sandwich off the menu and I’m still upset about it. BRING BACK THE HEN!

Ryan Henry

This is one of my friend groups regular hangs. Football Sundays, Love Island Watch parties, holiday bar crawls, we’ve loved Thirsty since the original location. Can’t beat the wings, the drinks or the awesome bartenders. If you’re looking for a good time you have to check it out!!
