The Kennedy

Monday's are hospitality nights in which if you work in that field admission is free before 12AM with proof drinks are also cheaper. They also offer a guest list and a complimentary table and bottle service ( Kettel Vodka) for hospitality for a low price. In addition you can also get the Magnum size bottles for half price. Bottle serv requires you to have a party of a min of 5 people. There is no seats in this club unless you have a reserve table. Drink and get in free before 12AM.Outside- has a bar and reserve seating area. The DJ plays throw back music. With only 1 bar. Down fall is the have fans which they never have on.Inside- The has WILD 94.1 radio station as the DJ. Which they play radio music for the diverse crowd. Along with bottle serv also. The back of the room they have a photographer pictures are $10. There's 2 bars one is a Tab bar the other is normal bar.Overall its a nice night club mixed crowed. Men dress attire- is pants only and no plain T-shirts. Shorts are only allowed on special nights exp: ( memorial day)Women dress attire- anythingBeverages are reasonable price

It was okay. The music was decent... there was a young to middle-aged crowd, but the DJ just seemed kind of weird. There was a period of time when he was kind of acting like DJ Kool in "Let Me Clear My Throat," where he's talking to the ladies and saying if you got your own job pay your own bills you don't need a man, etc. etc. But then he started saying "if you ain't got no STDs, put your hands up." Not just once, or twice, but about a dozen times he kept doing this throughout a couple hours. Is it seriously that bad in his life that he has to keep bringing that up?Anyway, the place seems to be intended as a meat market, & it probably suits that need based on what I was seeing there. The ladies are going out to show what they got, and there are plenty of people looking.

The bouncers at the door charge different cover prices depending on how you look as well as if you're male or female. If you're underage, expect to either slip $20 extra under your ID or get a zip-tie cutting off the circulation to your hand. When you're in, there's gross tables and "VIP Booths" with people just smoking (with no ventilation). The drinks are far over priced and I've heard several stories of different people being drugged in their drinks. The staff will not hesitate to throw you out for no reason at your own expense- physically and financially. The manager, "Jackal", will attempt to get with younger females and offer them and their friends free drinks. The music was all around bad and I have nothing good to say about this establishment. When I got fed up and decided to leave, I couldn't even take a cup of water with me. Do not support this business

The Kennedy was cool to me when I was still under 21. Now that I'm a little older it has completely lost its flair. Not to mention that they have became 10x more pretentious over time (charging a fee to use a debit card at a club that makes hundreds at the bar every night?). $10 for parking in an area where parking is scarce at best. It's just ridiculous - before you even have a drink in your hand you've already blown $20 or more. The crowd is mostly older people and not your good-looking crowd either. The outdoor patio is nice for a club with a crowded inside, but that's almost the only plus.There are better clubs in Tampa Bay. No reason to go here except for their all you can drink special and then get out and head to other parts of SoHo and away from this area. The Kennedy wants to be so much, but falls short.

'THE PARTIES HERE'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I have been having withdrawls from fist pumping and jumping at the Hardrock so I needed a spot quick fast and in a hurry. I then came across The Kennedy. I heard it wasnt to bad and if I liked house music then this is the place for me and that it was. Saturday night was said to have been doing bad but we decided to check it out anyway. Its call the House Party on Saturdays. They have ladies drink and get in free ALL night!!!!! What a deal but at the same time a mistake...... Drink all night???!!!! WOW waisted.The dj was jumping and the music was none stop fist pumpin jams. We were in there going nuts. Its not a Passions or Opium (those my joints) but its good. The people on the other hand I have to get use to there pretty um well Ill keep it to myself but the dress code is nonexisting!Friday night is Seductve fridays Its not bad but just get ready to listen to reggae, rap and hip hop. I love it all but I cant dance to that all night thats more like vibbin to me. The place has a nice feel and the outside lounge is fly. Overall so far this is my new Tampa spot!Oh yea there is a check in offer of a free shot and be prepared to see kind of an 18 and older crowed even though its suppose to be 21 and up.

The parking situation is terrible. Your only option is basically valet or walk inconsiderable distances with high heels. Long lines to get in, which isn't so much of an issue but security was stricter than necessary. Music is great, drinks are somewhat watered down. Atmosphere was alright, location can accommodate a large amount of people. Would go back for the music but probably just Uber next time.

Well being that im not a fist pumper and not a fan of house,dance muisc it was just uhhh straight but i did get in free and drinks were free for two hrs so thats why they get two stars.......

I don't have much to say on this establishment. It is a late night, young crowd music venu. We were looking for a few cocktails and conversation. This is not the place to try and converse.I guess I won't say it is hipster, young and loud (boy does that make me sound old?). It just wasn't the right night for this venue. We had a round of cocktails and left. Another nigbt, being with different people, maybe, but I doubt it. Just not my type of place.What's a girl to do? Always go where she feels comfor6.

I wish I could give this place negative stars.Screw this place. And I can't wait for them to delete this review. Not even going to get into all the fucked up horror stories that have happened here.I lost my wallet there and I went back and just so happened to luckily go as soon as a worker was going inside (since it's closed 5 days a week). The dude was a complete dope. He said he would go look and he didn't. He went inside came out with boxes and a drill. Didn't say a word to me and continued to just do random shit. He finally says "go to treehouse" and I said "I didn't even go there last night I know as a fact it's in there" continued to keep saying "go to treehouse." I have called this place at least 50 times and DMed them on Instagram and zero responses. Also the place just was not fun, so overpriced and the drinks were horrible, tasted like vodka water. Friday night and barely anyone there. Dopey place ran by terrible people.

i've been coming here the past few weekends. there's 2 lines, the normal line and the fast line. i've paid $20 for admission for the fast line because usually it's packed. the other night happened to be not as packed so i went to the other line which is $10 instead. ($20 is outrageous for a cover anyways) i get up to get my ID checked and the bouncer is mumbling some shit i ask him to speak up and he's asking me to slip him an extra $5 on top of the cover u have to pay at the door, when my ID is real. so unprofessional and just such broke boy shit aside from being illegal. aside from this at the door the club itself inside i do enjoy so i was disappointed to have this experience. please do better!
