Sports & Game Day Tampa: North Hyde Park

The stretch between West Tampa and Hyde Park, just across the river from downtown, with cigar-era brick buildings along Howard Avenue and cracker houses behind them. Long overlooked, and now where a Michelin Bib Gourmand bakery and a sandwich counter both landed.

Cousin Vinny's Sandwich Co. is a single-location sandwich shop on West Cass Street, started by what its own site calls 'a group of paisans originally from New York looking to share their passion for quality New York inspired sandwiches with the Tampa Bay community'. The shop was added to the MICHELIN Guide in the 2025 Florida selection and kept its place in 2026, and Creative Loafing reported it would appear on Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.
