My coffee was really good, and so was my sandwich :) the employees were kind and joyful, and all in all, I felt happy and cared for in their cafe. Also, the prices are reasonableThanks again 🙂
Nice relaxed space with a couple of tables outside too.Cuban omelette was nice and the guava pastry was excellent. Enjoyed the well-prepared pour over coffee as well. ☕
LOVE this coffee shop. The staff here is so amazing, everyone works so hard and they are so kind. We are on a first name basis these days, and my coffee orders are always made perfectly.
I come in to this coffee shop maybe four times a week if I’m lucky and every time I come in there I’m treated very kindly and greeted with smiles to the point now where Faith will greet me by name and knows my coffee order *Thanks Faith *. And even with it being a local shop nothing seems to take longer then expected.Great customer service and great coffee . I am thankful that my morning drive takes me past this location
I love this local coffee shop. I always get the dirty tiger drink, it is so delicious! The only other item Ive tried was the blueberry muffin. It was big and very fluffy, yummy!! The cashier and baristas are always super sweet.
Really nice aesthetic, and the cashier was super sweet! They have a lot of vegan & dairy free options which is great if you have allergies or dietary restrictions.Im pretty picky with my coffee flavors but the roasts they use are really smooth and I dont taste any acidity which is an issue I have with other coffee chains.I would definitely recommend it ☕
Im 37 weeks pregnant and ordered a drip coffee with almond milk yesterday. When I went in and asked if I could have a little more almond milk, the barista was so sweet and gave me a little side cup. Thank you for taking the extra step to help a very pregnant lady enjoy her precious one cup of coffee! This has been our favorite local coffee shop, but not its the only one Ill visit. Great coffee and even greater customer service!
Very good and extremely cheap! Was baffled actually. Here in the city youre more than likely to pay like over $5 for coffee. They make it pretty affordable for everyone.I loved the vibes here as well, it was a casual hangout setting.Definitely will be here again.
Just walked in for a morning cold brew and generally the staff is wonderful and friendly. Not today. Apparently the woman was not too happy that I showed up right at 8 AM when they opened. I greeted her very nicely with my dog and said hi morning sorry I came at 8 AM. She just looked at me. As I walked in with my dog and try to give him some water she rudely barked at me “you need a mask” (which is fine) but no need to be rude about it. I said oh “I’m so sorry I just got done with my morning walk I don’t have one I can wait outside”. She did not say anything. Then I began to give her my order because clearly I was not wanted to be there at all. She made my order did not say anything to me. And then when I went to go wait outside, she came storming over and just goes “here is your drink”. She did not welcome me to sit and stay outside at their tables or anything. It’s not my fault you have to work today and I’m sorry chick that you’re having a bad morning but please don’t take it out on your loyal customers who live in the neighborhood. 😡
We have been driving past this place for a year now meaning to stop and I am so glad we finally did! Staff is friendly, coffee is great, and the food is yummy.
The folks at Blind Tiger Seminole Heights have been my saviors during this pandemic. I just got notified Ive made over 100 orders and I cant recall a single order that I wasnt looking forward to. Ive really been able to rely on Blind Tiger to start my days while Ive been stuck inside this year and thats made every purchase worth it. Thanks for all you do!
Great staff, quick service. Coffee is good. A little more on the acidic taste.
Coffee was good and thats about it. Banana bread had the texture of a dried out dish sponge. Acai bowl was watery and icey, spent $11 on it to throw it in the trash. My fiance did enjoy his sandwich. Was looking forward to trying this place out but was very disappointed.
This is a very beautiful coffee shop inside and out. The place lives up to expectations with friendly and cheerful staff and a good selection of affordable healthy menu options. The ambiance of the place is very comfy and was conveniently located. This is a great place for any business meetings and dates as well. I highly recommend this coffee shop to everyone.
Truly great coffee + friendly, welcoming staff (who always come out to say hi to my dog!)
The best coffee in town! Gena is amazing and always remembers what I like every Monday morning. Thank you guys for everything you do.
Im glad I stopped in here before heading back up to Tennessee. Their breakfast selection was exactly what I needed and their nitro cold brew rivals if not beats out my favorite coffee shop here. The girls running the front were absolute angels. I hope I get to visit again someday.
I bought a vanilla latte and breakfast sandwich here. Coffee was great and the sandwich was so good (fresh ingredients and piping hot). Staff was super friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend to others in the area.
Best coffee in Ybor City area. The macaroons are also tasty. Key lime flavor is a favorite.
Their cold brew was pretty good. Gave Blind Tiger Cafe a try because I wanted something other than Starbucks. For it being a small coffee shop the prices are about the same as Starbucks. I love the location in the Old Seminole Heights area. For dog lovers who like to take their dogs with them, this is a pet friendly cafe. I recommend all normal Starbucks goers to try out this smaller cafe for the support. And last, the customer service was great which is a plus.
Love the cafe bombon. Their breakfast sandwiches are pretty good too and they are happy to customize them for you. Also, they offer OAT MILK! My dairy-hating body says THANK YOU LORDT!
Customer service and covid practices A++Avo toast was delicious as well. Boyfriend loved his specialty drink!!
Cool ll place .
Great coffee and food. Will with a visit.
The baristas including Samantha and her coworker is really nice and the environment relaxing, but the owner is obsessive about protecting his store to the point where you cant enjoy coffee if the owner is there. He wanted to talk to this one customer I would consider normal and invited him to talk outside, but this guy left rather than discuss the owners limited perspective. I dont know if owner couldnt find up with the gay crowd, the Buddhists and Hindus or listened about the wrong people. Go somewhere else and look for the same baristas.
Great coffee, reasonably priced menu and service was awesome!
Love this little place for coffee. The coffee is always on point and would compare to Starbucks in quality. Only complaint is the food seems subpar. The breakfast sandwich I got seemed very basic for $8.50 and the cookie I got was stale, dry, and not tasty. I would go back for the coffee.
Small but cute little spot. My iced mocha was the best one Ive had in a long, long time. Cool music and very friendly staff. More expensive than most places but Ill be back.
Friendly staff, great atmosphere.
I had been meaning to try them for a while because of the reviews and being in my neighborhood. I went with my brother. We each ordered a coffee, a croissant sandwich (among the literal handful of food options), and a cookie to share, none of which displayed their prices.I covered my brothers and mine... $27+ and no receipt to see what we were charged for each item. It was a long wait for the drinks and sandwiches, ready one at a time, 5-10 minutes gaps between each. To my awareness, we were the only customers, so I gather one person, the not particularly courteous cashier, prepared the drinks and sandwiches. The taste and quality were well enough but not worth it.Drink in the atmosphere and experience of the local hipster ambiance, making it merely more worth going.
Great place to grab a fresh brew and breakfast sandwich!!! Friendly people and prices!!!
The coffee here was very good, the staff however seemed to be too busy chatting to each other to be overly friendly to myself or anyone else I saw approach the counter. Not exactly what I would expect out of a coffee shop. If the coffee wasnt so good I would probably not be coming back.
Thanks The Blind Tiger Cafe - Seminole Heights - Coffee was very good.
I dont understand the hype. I feel like an old man who has an outdated sense of expectations and cant cope in this hip new world.The floors are concrete, very cool and industrial looking but the chairs have steel feet. So every new customer makes the racket of a thousand scratched chalkboards. Your seating options are prison chairs, hard seats with hard backs. Actually that a lie, Ive visited people in prison and the chairs there were more comfortable.Okay, I know I know! What about the coffee? Ive been here twice now and ordered a very simple latte both times. Somehow they are undrinkable, I have no problem with boring flavors but oh my god stop scorching the milk.If the objective is to not be Starbucks youve succeeded. Your establishment is uncomfortaby stuffy and I dont feel comfortable returning a bad drink.
Great, little coffee shop in seminole heights. And they offer oat milk. Game changer!
Great coffee and atmosphere.
Blind Tiger is my favorite cup of coffee in Tampa. You wont be disappointed.
Friendly staff but not enough to keep up with demand. Coffee is good, pastry was good, slow service r/t only one employee. Took 25 minutes to get a cold brew and coffee with milk. Wanted to get a bagel but was told it would take 20minutes to heat the oven up first...it was 9am. I would not go back.
I have lived in the neighborhood for 2 years and this morning was my first time stopping in. The service was great! The girl working the counter was very sweet and answered my questions about merchandise. There is this awesome cookbook in there made up of recipes from local restaurants! Super stoked to go back for that. The coffee is delicious! I got a Carmel latte and it needed no tweaking. Not too sweet and perfect! Also, it came with a awesome sauce lightning cup holder!!!! Go Bolts! At the end of the day, it is pricier but its the essence of keeping your dollar local and in the neighborhood. Ill be coming back!
Its cute and quiet. Good drinks. Slim food choices, but the macaroons are great.The reason Im giving it 3 stars is that its basically the least kid-friendly coffee shop Ive ever been to. They have cactus plants everywhere. My 1 year old happened to grab one... so we spent the next 20 minutes pulling little stingers out of her fingers. The tables have slats in them, which makes it possible for drinks to tip over if you dont set them down perfectly flat -- a skill that children dont really have yet.If you have young children (who are walkers), go somewhere else. Every other coffee shop in the area is better suited for children.
Kept hearing good things about Blind Tiger, went over the weekend. One employee, wasnt greeted until we stood there for a few minutes. Very small shop, not a lot of room. Employee said shed be right with us but then disappeared for another couple minutes. Left without ordering, not very impressed with the selection or atmosphere.
Went there to use printer as advertised, but it didnt work cause it didnt have internet connection. I felt like the worker should have at least tried to get it connected, being that there was a customer there using a laptop
I ordered 6 bagels from Uber Eats.These were the absolute worst bagels Ive had in my life. They were hard as bricks. We didnt even eat them, they ended up in the trash. Dont order food from this place. Save your money!
Blind Tiger is a great place to grab your morning coffee on your way into the office or just hang out and enjoy your beverage. Im always greeted with a smile and made to feel at home. The coffee is great, the muffins are delicious, and they always have goodies like candles, shirts, and cards for me to buy for my friends.
Best Coffee in Tampa Bay, Period!The name Blind Tiger gives a nod to the 1920s speak easy. This location has a great local vibe and the coffee is amazing. Blind Tiger Cafe roast their own beans and the staff is more than knowledgeable about origin and flavor of those beans. Great local coffee spot.
The coffee doesnt even compare to others in the area, and I make special trips just to get it! Its so affordable and I had a wonderful experience.
I wish this coffee shop was good, but they got my order wrong twice - the cafe con leche was not sweet, and my dirty chai latte didnt come with any milk. I appreciate them being dog friendly, but their Ybor location is much much better
Love this coffee shop! Always have yummy tea, coffee and pastries!!! It’s always a stop for my husband and I while visiting Ybor.
Try the cold brew with mocha here, its a great combo and the mocha has a cocoa-y quality I havent found often. Great local coffee shop right on Florida Ave.
Not bad but not really good either. Once again the fear of making a dark roast past 9 AM seems to have crept in here. Anyone can do a pour over But thats not what we want. We want Real coffee. So what you end up with is another pseudo-coffee joint thats not that bad not good, just there.
Our favorite Sunday coffee spot!
What a wonderful place!!! Very friendly staff, excellent quality products, deliciously prepared.
Cute cafe but really small. Nice music. Cool merchandise available. Coffee is the greatest thing about this place.
FRIDAY MORNING AT 8:08AM AND THEY ARE CLOSED ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO NOTE AND HOURS SAY 6:30AM? I LIVE 1/2 BLOCK AWAY AND WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO GET A MORNING COFFEE REGULARLY FOR WHILE I WAIT FOR THE BUS BUT ALAS THEY ARE NOT OPEN. Hard to become a regular if they arent open during their business hours.
Probably the best coffee Ive Had since my trip to Denver! I recommend this place wholeheartedly.
Ham & cheese sandwich on a croissant and tthe cinnamon struesesl muffin with butter was delicious. Also purchased some handmade white tea & fig candles. Lovely scent. They have a variety!
Im a huge Blind Tiger fan and so excited this new Seminole Heights location is now open. Great speakeasy style coffee and tea shop. Awesome staff. Check it out.
Great space. Friendly baristas. Great coffee. Fair prices. Love Blind Tiger and their Seminole Heights location!
Cute little place with unique drinks. They dont have macaroons anymore though. Service is friendly and nice.
Ive always really enjoyed the Ybor Blind Tiger so when this location opened up I was very excited. Cool, relaxed spot with everything you could want from a high quality coffee shop.
Im rating this five stars strictly on the soy latte I ordered. It was really good. Id come back.
Love this coffee shop. They have delicious tea and there are options to sweeten it with agave or honey.
Next time Ill be back with my friends. Feeling here is similar to a place in Columbus I liked.
Always fresh and they give you your moneys worth even if it is a little high.
The waiters are always very attentive.I love their cappuccino, its literally the best.
Kindest staff Ive ever met, the drinks are to die for, the atmosphere is great, and the prices are right! I cant ask for more in a drink shop!
Picked up the owner one night while Uber driving and was an awesome guy. The cafe is cool and the staff is real kind too. Probably the hidden gem among the gentrification occuring as a killer runs loose in da hood.
NIce location in Seminole Heights, unfortunately it lacks a good marquee and can be past by with relative ease.I usually frequent the Blind Tiger located in Ybor and this was my first visit. Much different than the Ybor version as they share space with Christopher Wayne Home store. Conceptually a unique idea but it limits the available chill spaces and lacks that invitation to park and stay awhile. Matter of fact as a result, I just bought my coffee and went on my way. Nevertheless the concept is cool with the furnishing located in the front of the store and the coffee section all the in the back.The coffee is good, pricey but definitely good.
Our favorite coffee shop in the TampaBay area. great tasting coffee, good variety, dairy alternatives available, really good bagels, and awesome baristas - especially Estaban who takes great pride in his profession.
Best Cortado Ive ever had. The Cafe Bombon is also exceptional.
Lovely staff and urban and fun interior design. My blueberry pomegranate iced tea was delish!
Good coffee and tea. They also have kombucha but I havent had that yet.
Coffee is good, place is kept cool but not too icy. I was worried about our coughing barista though. As I type this, she is coughing every 20 seconds into her hand...
Love this place. Just wish they had more food options.
Way cool joint! Enjoyed my coffee and pastry item! Would return!
Love this location, laid back and always good with super friendly staff!
Nice cozy little cafe with great coffee and small bites.
Great place to have convo and a cup of coffee.
Very cute, quiet coffee shop in a quiet little part of Seminole Heights. I love Blind Tiger.
Turmeric and ginger tea...yummy!
Love this place! I can work and print if needed.
Decent coffee although this location seems located in the middle of nowhere.
Cool little coffee shop with a great vibe and nitro cold brew.
Coffee girl is totally rude. Acted lile she could care less we were there. The URBAN BUNGALOW however, and owner of building are way awesome
I often meet people here to talk. next time ill be back with my relatives.
Great coffee..kambucha on tap
Good coffee, good drinks. Quality varies according to the barista that day.
Great service. Nice selection of teas.
Small. Not quick, but worth the wait. Awesome location for the neighborhood
Nice barista. Convenient location.
Super service, nice selection of beverages.
A local favorite with great coffee and vibes
Love there cold brew and service is excellent
