A veteran Tampa restaurateur will open a new vinyl bar along Tampa Heights' Yellow Brick Row.

Ty Rodriguez is behind the "music-forward" Peppermint Lounge, which is set to open this fall at 1605-7 N. Franklin St. The bar will take over the former Flower Crown Kombucha, a roughly 4,200-square-foot space that includes a 1,300-square-foot outdoor patio. It will be a music-driven bar that blends vinyl sets and live music.
