Calling all Pinellas County restaurants! Creative Loafing’s Tampa Bay Restaurant Month is returning this June, and that means that it’s time for you to secure your spot in the spotlight.
This year, the industry-driven event expands to cover the entire month of June. It is a premier opportunity to showcase your culinary talent through exclusive prix-fixe menus and drink pairings to residents and visitors alike.

As presenting sponsors, Visit St. Pete-Clearwater will be participating in heavy promotion of this month-long focus on the culinary scene. Additionally, participating restaurants are invited to engage in exclusive industry events:
|
- Meet The Chefs (June 18, 2026): A high-profile, in-person tasting event at The Birchwood Ballroom in Downtown St. Pete, where guests sample your dishes and meet the creators behind the culinary masterpieces.
- Community Impact: Creative Loafing has partnered with Feeding Tampa Bay to help fight food insecurity in our region

If you are interested in featuring your restaurant during this month-long culinary celebration, we want to hear from you!
