About Cane and Barrel
The Spotlight on Cane and Barrel

Rooftop Tapas and Sunset Views in Downtown St. Pete

Perched atop the AC Hotel in downtown St. Petersburg, Cane and Barrel brings a taste of Havana to Florida’s Gulf Coast. This stylish rooftop bar and restaurant serves up Cuban-inspired small plates and creative craft cocktails in a sleek, art-deco atmosphere. With palm-lined views of the bay and a breezy open-air terrace, it's a favorite for locals and visitors looking for a vibrant yet chill vibe before or after a show.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is key—Cane and Barrel is just a short walk from downtown St. Pete’s major concert venues, making it an ultra-convenient stop for pre-show drinks or late-night bites. The rooftop setting keeps things lively but not too loud, so you can still chat before heading to the music. The small plates menu is perfect for sharing and sampling, and service is quick enough to get you to your seat on time.

Who this Restaurant is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to split a few plates before the opening act
  • Solo travelers enjoying a cocktail with a view
  • Couples starting their romantic concert night with a rooftop sunset
  • Fans in search of a lively, stylish pre-show atmosphere
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who appreciate shareable plates and happy hour deals

What People Say

Reviewers rave about the ambiance, especially the rooftop seating and city views. Guests love the mojitos and signature cocktails, and many highlight the Cuban sandwich sliders, empanadas, and yuca fries as must-try bites. Staff are often described as friendly and attentive, and the space is praised for being equally great for dates or groups.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that it can get busy during peak weekend hours, so seating might be limited without a reservation. A few reviewers noted that the music can be a bit loud later in the evening, which might not suit every mood. The small plates format means it’s not ideal if you’re looking for a full meal.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a concert in downtown St. Pete and want great cocktails, sharable bites, and rooftop views just steps from the venue, Cane and Barrel is your go-to spot.
