What happened after Food Paradise?
In 'Late Night Paradise,' the show featured Five Bucks Drinkery for its budget-priced cocktails and late-night bar food served at its original downtown St. Petersburg location on Central Avenue. Five Bucks Drinkery is a bar and restaurant that has since grown from that single location into a small chain of Tampa Bay-area drinkeries. The business's own website, fivebucksdrinkery.com, carries a 2026 copyright and currently lists three active locations - Downtown, Pinellas Park, and Seminole - each with its own food menu, drink menu, and online ordering option, plus a section for booking parties and upcoming events. Google's business listing separately shows the Central Avenue location as operational, with no closure or relocation reported. The site's own news section also highlights recent promotions at each of the three locations.
