Value is the soft axis, because the glass arrived dirty, and that one lapse is the only reason this is not a Steep Pick. - Coffee / Drink Quality: 8.5/10 - Atmosphere: 8.7/10 - Solo-Friendliness: 8.9/10 - Value: 7.5/10 - Staying Power: 8.1/10 - Overall: 8.3/10 Perfect for: slow evening ## The Space Bar Moxy is the lobby bar of the Moxy hotel on Central Avenue. The interior feels luxurious but with a sense of fun, and the room has a vibrant energy. ## The Pour I ordered a glass of Terras Gauda Albariño from Rías Baixas in Spain, and it was delicious: high in acidity, zesty, with a clearly ocean-influenced profile. The fruit aromatics were sharp without being overpowering, and there was a savory edge underneath. I stuck to wine and did not try a cocktail, and the glass it arrived in was dirty. > The wine was excellent. The glass was not clean. ## The Vibe The staff were friendly and the whole place has a lively, polished mood. The ambience was wonderful. ## The Verdict Great wine in a room with real energy, held back by a dirty glass that should never have left the bar. Fix that and this is an easy Steep Pick. ### Practical information - Address: 1234 Central Ave, St. Petersburg, FL 33705, United States - Price: $$ - Type: hotel bar [Website](marriott.com/en-us/hotels/tpasx-moxy-st-petersburg-downtown/dining) ## More in Downtown St. Petersburg - [Bad Mother](https://thesteep.app/cities/st-petersburg/bad-mother-st-petersburg) Steep Pick Downtown St. Petersburg · Steep Index 8.9/10 A dark, posh coffee bar inside the Station House, with a balanced, chocolate-and-berry flat white and staff who will talk about the beans. - [Daycation Coffee](https://thesteep.app/cities/st-petersburg/daycation-coffee-st-petersburg) Steep Pick Downtown St. Petersburg · Steep Index 8.8/10 A tiny owner-run shop just north of Central Avenue that looks like nothing from the street, where the owner and staff talk you through how to drink the house specialties. - [Coffee Concrete](https://thesteep.app/cities/st-petersburg/coffee-concrete-st-petersburg) Steep Pick Downtown St. Petersburg · Steep Index 8.7/10 A big, funky coffee bar inside a concrete design studio in the Warehouse Arts District, with a backyard patio and a latte worth the trip. - [Hogg Batch Coffee Roastery](https://thesteep.app/cities/st-petersburg/hogg-batch-coffee-roastery-st-petersburg) Steep Pick Downtown St. Petersburg · Steep Index 8.7/10 A working roastery on Central Avenue that ages its beans in spirit barrels, pours only pour overs and cold brew, and does it better than anyone else in a city built on syrup lattes.
