About the restaurant
Featured in Food & Wine Magazine, The Wine Enthusiast, and Tampa Bay Times, In Between Days is Florida's first craft sake house and Tokyo-style listening bar. Our sake list is one of the most diverse on the East Coast and is curated by our in-house sake sommelier Noah Sain. Inspired by the underground listening bars of Tokyo, our little house is warmed by intimate lighting and analog sounds sent through a pair of Klipsch Cornwalls. Oil lanterns cascade amber light while sake is poured into eager glasses. We play full sides. Our sake is chilled. Our oysters are served in the classic French style. It’s not Tokyo, but it’s close.

With an ever-rotating menu of sake, sake cocktails, and tasty plates, In Between Days offers a truly unique experience in the Tampa Bay area. Just off the hustle of Central Ave.

Please feel free to text us!

Really cool spot. Primarily a saki bar, but does have what they would consider smaller plates. They're definitely larger than I was expecting them to be. Overall, everything was excellent.

The food and service were great! We sat at the bar and our server recommended her favorites like Mushroom Carpaccio and dry aged ham and goat cheese bruschetta. Everything was great and I can’t wait to go back!

Loved the vibe - nostalgic, spooky and funky all rolled into one. Food was excellent quality and super fresh. Highly recommend the brunch menu, especially the hangover biscuit and gator tail. Beer was super special and recommend trying their award winning brews.

About the restaurant
We're raising the bar - literally......
The essence of the terrace bar at St. Petersburg’s AC Hotel is derived from the flora and fauna of Florida, infused with the lushness of a Caribbean courtyard, and inspired by Cuban heritage. The signature spirit, rum, is the key narrative – exploring its journey from the cane to the barrel. The interiors reflect the vibrant culture of Havana nights with an old world charm.
