At Predalina, the bar is more than a place to order a cocktail. It is one of the restaurant’s defining design moments — a warm, glowing centerpiece that helps set the tone for the entire guest experience.

Located in Tampa’s Water Street district, Predalina is rooted in coastal heritage, Mediterranean flavors, and the life of Predeliana Oliviera, the great-grandmother of owners Blake Casper and Allison Adams. Predalina was inspired by both Tampa’s nearby bustling docks and Predeliana’s life across seaside communities in Brazil, Portugal, and Rhode Island. The restaurant’s spaces, finishes, and indoor-outdoor flow all take cues from those coastal places.

The bar top becomes part of the ritual: a refined surface for service, conversation, and presentation.

At Bar Chimera, the custom pewter bar tops help define the guest experience. They sit at the center of the action, grounding the martini and wine bars with handcrafted metal surfaces that feel elegant, durable, and timeless. For La Bastille, this project reflects what custom fabrication can bring to a hospitality space: a bar top that is more than a surface. It is a gathering place, a design statement, and one of the most memorable parts of the room.
