Brandon, Fla. — The new destination store, which is expected to open in 2015, will include an Islamorada Fish Company Restaurant inside the store.
Brandon, Fla. — Bass Pro Shops, an outdoor retailer specializing in hunting, fishing, camping and other related outdoor gear, plans to include an Islamorada Fish Company restaurant at the store it plans to open in Hillsborough County. The new destination store, which is expected to open in 2015, will be located at a high-profile site on I-75 at Adamo Drive and will serve the greater Tampa market.
Other new features and store design updates include a 15,000-gallon saltwater aquarium, a Floridian-lodge-style entrance, a grand fireplace, and hand-painted murals in addition to many area artifacts, and museum-quality, wildlife mounts and dioramas.
The unique architectural design for the Brandon/Tampa store was inspired by examples of early 20th century Floridian structures characterized by broad metal roofs, heavy timber frames, coral stone columns, white-washed surfaces and bold color accents. Large roof overhangs and Bahaman-style shutters will help strengthen the image while providing shade.
