WestShore Plaza is an enclosed shopping mall located in the Westshore business district of Tampa, Florida. Although seen as the more affordable version of International Plaza and Bay Street (which is one mile away from WestShore Plaza), WestShore houses many higher-end retail chains, such as the Lindt & Sprüngli chocolatier and Ann Taylor.

WestShore Plaza's anchors include Sears, JCPenney, Macy's, and Saks Fifth Avenue. There is also an AMC movie franchise (14-screen theatre), a P.F. Chang's China Bistro and a Maggiano's Little Italy. High-end steakhouse chain The Palm and gourmet seafood eatery Mitchell's Fish Market Restaurant and Bar are also located at Westshore.

WestShore Plaza was opened in 1967 and was touted as Tampa's first shopping center that was fully air-conditioned. The mall has since seen numerous expansions. The tenant space at WestShore is owned and managed by Glimcher Realty Trust.
