This coffee is out of this world. Growing up on Starbucks and perfecting my drink had me hesitant to try something similar on Victorys menu. Not only is Victory my favorite coffee shop now, but I cant remember the last time I went to Starbucks. Ive been back to Victory almost every day since my first cold brew order here. All said, the best part of the experience is the staff! Do yourself a favor and try Victory the next time you need your coffee fix.

While the coffee here is great. the sandwiches are over priced and have no flavor. I got heir bacon egg and cheese, and since it was 8 dollars I expected it to taste good. It’s just tasted plain the and dry.

Absolutely incredible experience two days in a row!Yesterday was my first experience at Victory Coffee, and to say I was impressed is an understatement. I was greeted the second I walked through the door, and the lovely barista was amazing. She explained the breakfast sandwiches to me in detail, even though I could have easily scanned a menu.I got the iced lavender, honey, oatmilk latte, and it is quite honestly one of the best lattes I have ever had. The egg-white breakfast wrap was to die for, and while the sandwiches do take a little bit longer, because they are all handmade to order, they are well worth the wait!! She even waited to steam the milk for my husbands latte until the food was almost ready so it would remain hot.10/10 would recommend. 10/10 went back again this morning. 10/10 have found my new favorite coffee shop!!(I noticed a few people had ordered ahead of time, so if youre in a rush and want delicious food, definitely do that instead of going elsewhere)

Really chill coffee spot with some delightful menu offerings. Iced Pistachio Latte was smooth and sweet. Within walking distance of the aquarium and arena too!

This is our favorite independently owned coffee shop in Tampa. In addition to coffee they also have great tea based drinks. Always friendly employees, and even if there is a line, it moves quickly.

Friendly vibe in this little coffee shop. Order the Loxie bagel and you will be treated to a real delight. Smokey, salty lox mixture with capers makes for an out of this world bagel. The coffee was also first rate. You can also purchase bottles of wine for takeout here which are surprisingly reasonably priced.

Just moved to Tampa and wanted to get a coffee on my first morning here. Was asked to leave while waiting in line to order because I had my dog with me. They didn’t even bother to inquire if it was a service animal. Felt shamed In front of other customers. Will not be returning even without my dog. Welcome to Tampa I guess.

This is my go-to place for coffee and a meal! Their coffee is always so good! The meals and bites are different and delicious! I’ve ordered the same thing multiple times and it’s always come right. When I’ve ordered different things, I get those served just as tasty and with fresh ingredients. Support small businesses!

Love coming to Victory for coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Their tomato & mozzarella sandwich is my favorite and the egg + cheese croissant is great. Cold brew is fantastic. Im also really impressed with how theyve handled business during COVID. Call in for food orders, very clean store. Could not recommend this coffee shop more.

Review №26

I love this place. The coffee is delicious and I love the salmon bagel. My boyfriend or I usually go once a week and grab each other something when we are there. 110% recommend!Side note (more for owner): I wish they would get rid of the reward paper cards that you punch a hole every time you come in. I have lost 4 of them so far. I can never keep track of them and it’s a waste of paper. They should implement a rewards system through the customer’s phone number, email, or an app.

I used to love this place. Its becoming unfortunately too crowded recently. Today I ordered a sandwich. After about 25 minutes waiting I asked about it. The lady who is making the sandwiches was rather rude mumbling something about many people waiting. There was no sorry afterwards. Thats not right etiquette, I am afraid. Its a pity. Not coming back

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! They have some of the best coffee around that gives Starbucks a run for their money! I always get a Medium Caramel Latte and a Lox Everything bagel sandwich. IT IS AMAZING YOU HAVE TO TRY IT. They also have some really good locally made muffins and sweets. Always nice to go in and see everyone smiling and enjoying their coffees and teas!

First time at this shop, I chose a basic coffee to taste their blend and it is good! Its only after I purchased their coffee I noticed their HUGE selection of Teas, as a big drinker of both coffee and teas this place seems like paradise! I WILL be returning and trying out their selection of teas that caught my eyes!

Breakfast sandwiches and coffee bring you in to start your day but the staff keeps you until after lunch. Friendly faces and great quality make for an oasis in the artificial surroundings.

The experts working here can make recommendations about what to order. The barista recommended using oat milk instead of almond and it ended up tasting better. Will definitely visit again.

Im not much of a coffee drinker, but it was chilly today so I ordered a hot chocolate and it was just perfect.... Not too sweet, not too thick, just the right temperature.... The only problem was it was so good I drained it immediately!Their WiFi here is free and its top-notch, too. The atmosphere is calm and pleasant. I am staff on a cruise ship and I will be coming here every time we anchor in this harbor. 5 stars.

Review №55

This place probably has had the best ham egg and cheese croissant that Ive ever eaten, and Ive eaten a lot of them! If you have your own coffee cup bring it because it would be easier to put your beverage in your cup from the cardboard that they give you. You can automatically recycle that very easily. Service is very good however it takes time because its a little place. Get there early cuz theres always a line! Good luck and enjoy.

Review №56

The cashier was extremely rude, started slamming stuff around and handed me a frappe which tasted like old coffee. i ordered a hazelnut and it had absolutely no flavor and no whipped cream after she asked me if i wanted some. after handing me my order she then proceeded to type aggressively on her cellphone by the register. Point is, I’ve had a better frappe at mcdonald’s.

Ohh the food...if youre looking for nice fast breakfast but still healthy and filling to get you ready for the day you want to go here, I would always had their turkey avocado sendwich and its sooo good, so fresh, vegetables like straight from the garden! Simply love it! Staff is nice, polite, smiling and they make really good coffee or tea, depends what you like, tea is really high quality, I definitely recommend since I love both 👍☺️ good job guys, just keep it up!

Flawless experience.Friendly staff and nice food and drinks.Loved the tea there, had a nice cup of green tea. The fact that they let the tea draw before serving it to a customer makes the waiting time a little longer.If you are expecting to get starbucks-fast and pseudo-anonymous service, you might not get what you expect.But if you are down for a nice local and personal experience and have enough time and personality to have a little chat, this will definitely be your choice of café!Would love to come back. Unfortunately, this was just a stop on our journey down south.

Victory Coffee is my favorite local coffee shop. They have original art work displayed and for sale, a slew of coffees, teas, lattes, fogs, etc and the staff are very attentive and friendly. Had a great experience today as they did something different by adding a fresh spinach salad with my chx salad croissant. 100% would reccomend!

I found myself at Victory Coffee one Sunday afternoon by word of mouth. Upon entering I knew that I would love this place! I enjoyed the atmosphere and particularly the knowledge of one of the baristas, who overheard my request from the back and stuck her head out to make her suggestion. I ordered a grilled cheese sandwich, which came out quickly with chips and a tasty tomato based sauce.. Affordable lunches and breakfasts, just perfect for people who live in the area!! Walking distance from everywhere in Channelside.

Great, coffee shop with truly unique character, such an urban community feel and vibe in the channelside district! Love their protein balls, muffins, baked goods, and coffee of course!! VERY friendly service, people..& Very! Creative atmosphere! With beautiful art displayed! I organized the monthly Maven Market Channel District a street over and everytime Im in the neighborhood whether it be meetings or preparing for an event or the endless tasks involved I never leave the neighborhood without a victory coffee and a favorite meeting place!!:)

Review №96

The good: The cafe is cute ave the atmosphere is ok/good. The food selection is narrow but acceptable for a location this size, its also pretty tastey. Also staff customer service is pretty swell. Lastly has a few tables for outdoor seating and is a pretty clean area of town.The bad: The cold brew is sooo BITTER that it was painful. The hot coffe was decent but the cold brew was one of the worst Ive ever had. Not sure if it was an off day for them but ask for a sample before committing. Parking is lacking but thats to be expected for the downtown area.
