Indie Grilled Cheese
The "Indie Grilled Cheese" sandwich is surely a classic. What does that tell you? ...that it's extremely delicious. The wine and spice soaked pears partner perfectly with the melted Gouda cheese and the toasted marble rye bread. It's sturdy enough to go with any beer and yet elegant enough to go with a glass of wine. This sandwich is a win-win in my book.
Leberkase Sandwich
We brought our German pal & rock historian Rudi Esch to The Independent to show him that Tampa's got some mojo. To our surprise he pronounced the Leberkase sandwich to be excellent. We had more than a few Augustiner beers that day!

Great sandwich - super tasty!
Banh Mi Salad
Fantastic salad, and love they seperate the meat from the salad to go. Always on point
Banh Mi Salad
This dish hit the spot. Not too heavy. Definitely fulfilling. Bite after bite of flavor. Get the Mojo Pork add-on. You won't regret it. Perfect complement to a bowl of mixed healthy greens, julienne cucumbers and carrots, sliced jalepenos and cabbage, and just the right amount of slaw dressing. Hope you enjoy as I did!
Bavarian Brat Platter
Bratwurst was excellent as was the pretzel. Mustard sauce had a great flavor. We also had the Rob and it was one of the best sandwiches we have ever had. Hefeweizen was awesome. Had a great time and we will be back!
Indie House Salad
The Indie house salad has been one of my favorite salads locally for YEARS! I am obsessed with the poppy seed dressing- it's creamy but very light and tangy.I would buy it by the bottle if it was available! And the grapes and blue cheese really balance the dish. I love that you can get it as a side salad with your sandwich I always pair it with the Tempeh BLT - a vegetarian staple
Corned Beef Reuben
My husband & I come in at least once a week. The service is stellar - they always know what kind of beer we prefer, and will give us recommendations. The food is always served fresh & the quality has never wavered from delicious.
Potato & Cheese Pierogi (7)
Out of this world good. Apple jam and seasonings put this on top. Raised by Russian/Eastern Europe mother. Sorry mom you've been outdone by Independent.
Mojo Pork Tacos (2)
This recipe is so good ,I just drove 20 hours straight from NY , but still had to stop by for the most memorable tacos you will ever have. I recommend it with a Duchesse and a Pretzel. Hands down one of my favorite meals of all time! I HIGHLY recommend. Enjoy.
