The Birchwood, located in St. Petersburg, Florida, is a hospitality property that combines an inn, a fine dining restaurant, and a rooftop bar. The building is a historic Spanish Mission-style structure originally built in 1924 as Lantern Lane Apartments and later renovated with two additional floors, and it is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. Its southern exterior features a 12-by-24-foot birch forest mural, and the name honors the founder's father, who developed a neighborhood with the same name. The Birchwood Inn comprises about 18 rooms and offers on-site dining and nightlife through Birch and Vine and The Canopy, with Forbes noting it as a recommended place to stay in St. Petersburg. Birch and Vine, led by head chef Jason Cline, has been recognized by the Tampa Bay Times as a top ten area restaurant, and in 2025 it received Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence.
