Try This: A day of self-care in Water Street Tampa

The exterior of Crisp and Green in Water Street Tampa. There are two couples walking in front of the glass storefront, arm in arm, and another couple sitting to the left at a metal table under a tree. — Feel your worries slip away as you stroll Water Street Tampa’s spacious sidewalks.

City Editor Patrick here. I recently enjoyed an afternoon in the downtown neighborhood, attending a pilates class, soaking up a luxe pedicure, and savoring a leafy lunch in a few of the many hotspots Water Street Tampa has to offer. Keep reading to learn more about this dedicated self-care day:

What we tried:

Since my focus was health + wellness, it only made sense to combine a workout, lunch break, and salon visit into one perfect afternoon – starting with a sweat at BODYROK.

The interior of BODYROK. There are pilates machines and blueish purple lighting inside, with a mirror lining the wall. — Ready, set, sweat at BODYROK.

BODYROK is an innovative pilates studio where you’ll never do the same workout twice. Don’t be intimidated; it’s suitable for all fitness levels, and the staff could not be more wonderful + welcoming.

I followed my pilates session with a healthy bite + drink at Crisp and Green, featuring a whole range of healthy produce. Pro tip: You can customize any of the menu items by adding + removing to your heart’s desire.

What we’re still talking about:

Next, a tranquil nail session at MiniLuxe, which offered a lasting sense of calm + relaxation. The spot is super clean, and doesn’t have that typical nail salon smell. Instead, it gives spa-like relaxing vibes.

The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, and I left feeling properly pampered after enjoying a deluxe pedicure.

A salad bowl and smoothie at Crisp and Green. The bowl is full of Brussels sprouts, walnuts, apple, chicken, and other greens. The smoothie is purple and sits on a table in a bright exterior. — Honey Spice & Everything Nice + Purple Rain smoothie.
