Garden Gimlet: gin + cucumber mint cordial + fresh lime {custom ice provided by Tampa Ice Plant @tampaiceplant}
“Both bars were very well stocked and no one waited for drinks all night long. More than the food and more than the bars, we could not be more impressed and more pleased with the service provided our guests. Prepared, positive staff who we saw going the extra mile for our guests all night...”
Quality Ingredients, Masterful Mixology
The foundation of any great cocktail is the quality of its ingredients. At SaltBlock, we source only the finest spirits, fresh local fruits & herbs, and create unique in-house infusions. Our expert mixologists, with a passion for the art of cocktail creation, transform these elements into liquid masterpieces that tell a story with each sip.
Our talented Mixologists, Kim Bailey and Mildred Chavely (aka Cha)
Our bar program is led by industry professionals Kim Baily and Mildred Roman (aka Cha), who joined our team in July 2023. Kim and Cha founded Lucky Elephant Solutions, a hospitality consulting company, in 2021. Their commitment to excellence shines in every beverage, from a thoughtfully curated glass of wine to a one-of-a-kind cocktail. With over twenty-five years of experience, you can bet your guests are in good hands.
Custom Creations
No two events are the same, and neither should be the cocktails! We’ll work closely with you to understand the theme, ambiance, and preferences of your event. Whether it's a signature drink tailored to the occasion or a bespoke menu that complements your event's aesthetic, our craft cocktail program adds a personalized touch that distinguishes your gathering.
The Gigi: clementine infused gin + orange spice tea + ginger allspice reduction
Interactive Bar Stations
We believe that the bar is not just a service area; it's an experience. SaltBlock brings interactive bar stations to your event, allowing guests to witness the craftsmanship behind each cocktail. From muddling fresh ingredients to the theatrical flare of mixology techniques, our bartenders engage and entertain, turning the bar into a focal point of the event.

Presentation is key, and SaltBlock understands the importance of aesthetics. Our craft cocktails are not only a delight for the taste buds but also a feast for the eyes. From reimagined presentations to creative garnishes, each drink is a work of art that enhances the overall visual appeal of your event.

The Social Connection
A well-crafted cocktail has the power to break the ice and create a sense of camaraderie among guests. SaltBlock's craft cocktail program fosters a social atmosphere, encouraging interaction and conversation. Whether it's a team-building corporate event or an intimate wedding celebration, our cocktails become a catalyst for connection.

Zero Proofers
Non-alcoholic drinks shouldn't be boring — and non-drinkers shouldn't miss out on the camaraderie that is all too synonymous with drinking. Instead of offering the usual mixers (like juice and soda products), surprise and delight your guests with a craft mocktail! Made with an intriguing mix of fresh herbs, spices, housemade syrups, and more, these drinks are just as complex as our cocktails sans the booze.
