Marlow's Tavern now open in Carrollwood's Village Center

Tampa, Florida (Oct. 5, 2015) – Marlow’s Tavern is now open for lunch, dinner and drinks in Carrollwood’s Village Center. The chef-inspired dishes and handcrafted cocktails are served with exceptional hospitality, creating a neighborhood gathering place.

Menus created by executive chef John C. Metz change seasonally based on the availability of fresh ingredients. Every dish and cocktail on the Marlow’s Tavern menu is made from scratch daily with the freshest ingredients that the season has to offer.

“At Marlow’s Tavern, classic tavern items are elevated with fresh ingredients and a modern twist,” said John C. Metz, Jr., executive chef and co-founder of Marlow’s Tavern. “Local, fresh and unique ingredients were specifically selected to create dishes and handcrafted cocktails that are recognizable and approachable, yet better than the classic version.”

The handcrafted cocktails blend unique flavors and combinations with fresh juices and small-batch liquors, bitters and aperitifs. Wines selected from around the world offer an opportunity to sample great pairings by the glass or bottle. Its inclusive beer selection includes bottles, cans and drafts from around the world along with local breweries like Cigar City Brewing, which are great for enjoying with friends.

Marlow’s Tavern opened on Tuesday, Sept. 29, and through its opening events, the tavern partnered with Metropolitan Ministries, which provides housing, meals and supportive services to those who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless in the Tampa Bay area.

“Supporting the community that we serve is one of the most important things a neighborhood tavern can do,” said Alan Palmieri, co-owner and partner of Marlow’s Tavern. “With our guests’ help, Marlow’s Tavern raised $5,565 for Metropolitan Ministries last week, and we look forward to continuing the strong partnership.”

With prices ranging from $4.50 to $20, Marlow’s Tavern offers affordable luxury: fresh, made-from-scratch dishes and cocktails and warm hospitality in a comfortable atmosphere. Guests can enjoy sharing a meal or drinks with family, friends, colleagues and neighbors at large communal tables, covered patio tables or cozy booths.
