Welcoming neighborhood coffee shop with a highlights of homemade rotating syrups…read more SOG is by far my favorite coffee shop in Tampa! I go for a Florida Man latte which includes a homemade orange syrup made using a concentrate of flavor from an orange tea. They always have rotating flavors depending on the season, but they are always made in-house and not Monin, Torani, etc. They have great food menu, and their Cuban toast breakfast sandwich is FIRE! It's definitely a place that the local community comes together, and they offer events like run club during the week.

I work with a family owned restaurant supplier, so originally met them on the business side of things but I'm definitely glad I did because I got to try their Cortado!!! My new addiction! It's light enough to be smooth, but still strong enough to taste the espresso, if that makes sense. The vibe is local, cool hangout/coffee shop that makes you want to sit down and relax for a while. You can tell they care about the people and their products.

I am absolutely surprised I've never written a review for one of my favorite coffee shops around…read moreTampa! Been going here for years and probably just wanted to keep this for myself! Just opened up a new bakery to the right side that is delicious (serves pastries, fresh bagels and their coffee). Shh, the lines are shorter over here. I have NEVER been disappointed with the Lab and there is a reason this place has been open for so long. The manager is amazing (so nice, he'll chat with you whenever he gets a chance), knows how to hire the baristas, and it's just the best! Come for the vibe, and stay for the coffee!

Such a cool place! They are dog friendly too. Brought some family here for a quick breakfast and it…read moredid not disappoint! I got an iced latte with their pumpkin flavor and it was the perfect was to kick off the fall season! I also got one of their bagel sandwiches, which was very good!

The ladies in the drive thru were super sweet to help me with my order and it was ready as soon as I go to the window and my drink was just as good as I expected! I appreciate the kind service My kids also mentioned they really enjoyed the cookie dough cake pops they said they were better than Starbucks.

I LOOOOVE Dutch Bros Coffee! I first had their coffee in Austin and wished there was a location in…read moreTampa. I'm so happy to see that the company is expanding to the Bay! I enjoy the variety of drinks available besides coffee: lemonades, energy drinks, tea, matcha, and shakes. Even on cold days, my favorite drink to order is a Blended Freeze. You can customize your sweetness leve, thickness of a blended drink, toppers, add-ins, and the most important to me: the sweetness level. Check the website or app for the "secret" menu. My favorite flavors are the Grasshopper (creme de menthe and dark chocolate) and the Annihilator (creamy espresso and chocolate macadamia nut). Now that the hype of the new location has died down, the lines haven't been as long as when they first opened. They still don't have advance app ordering, which I wish they would fix. You can use the app to pre-load money and earn rewards for free drinks. I loooove my Dutch Bros. I wish it was closer to me so I can order it more than other national coffee chains.

The barista was friendly and quick and really enjoyed the atmosphere. Wasn't busy at all and plenty of seats to choose from. It's a coffee place by day and a bar by night.

Since it was the weekend, we were lucky to find convenient street parking. The moment we walked in, we loved the cozy, welcoming vibes of the coffee shop. From the menu, we ordered a latte, which arrived quickly. It was hot, rich, and smooth, made with fresh coffee beans. It was easily one of the best lattes we've had, the perfect way to fuel our morning.

It's primarily a walk-up & order counter, but there's a lovely patio where you can sit and enjoy your coffee. They have a variety of menu items along with scones and other baked goods. My go-to is the Café Borgia latte, which has the most amazing orange zest flavor. Such a unique and delicious coffee!

The empanadas are so delicious! I came in for my daughter…read moreand I to get a sweet treat. We had never been before so we were excited to try their food. The shop is a decent size with a good amount of seating inside and out. I knew they served baked goods but when I saw empanadas on the menu I had to try one. My daughter got a sprinkle cookie and we also split a guava croissant while I waited for the empanada. Both treats were delicious I really loved the guava croissant it was perfectly flaky. The empanada I order was beef and cheese and when it comes out it's hot and has a cool stamp on the crust. This empanada was crispy and the filling was very tasty. So good I wish they were closer to me.

Cinnamon roll - 8.5/10 the frosting was perfect and thick! One of the better cinnamon rolls I've come across! S'more cronut - 5/10 this was dense, hard on the outside, overly sweet, and I didn't love the filling flavor. Breakfast empanadas - 7/10 tasty! Def recommend! Empanada dough was flaky and delicious. Filling was dry but still flavorful. Strawberry croissant - 8.5/10 yes! Lovely texture! Amazing flavor. Definitely get the croissants! The service was wonderful! Everyone working there is lovely. The bakery itself is adorable! Very small so seating goes quick and line gets long but they move people through the line fast. Definitely recommend going! Well worth the stop!

It might be the super friendly people-or the creamiest, coziest matcha latte ever, or the dreamy vintage architecture, with mid-century colors (we're taking hot orange and aqua)... and oh yeah, it's a drive-thru. Sold!!! They're open really early-which means I can go on workdays, before the south Tampa traffic starts. It's right there on Gandy, at Himes-just east of the Target. Both days, I was alone in the drive-thru so plenty of time to study the menus on the side of the little building. You order on one side, drive around and pick up on the other side. Both times, the workers were so helpful in choosing the extra sweeteners. In addition to matcha, chai, black and green tea, they serve coffees, steamers and refreshers... plus, there are snacks. I had a dense, delicious piece of banana bread-and am looking forward to trying the lemon bread, next. This little drive-thru only place is going to be in my regular rotation from now on.

The coffee: a bourbon vanilla latte over ice, against a hot spring day. Perfection. A silky smooth taste that lasts through the entire cup. Not too sweat, not too bitter. Just right. The ambience couldn't be better as it's mobile, amongst older cars at a car meetup being a converted truck. Casa Azul's mobile coffee cart/ truck is a unique additional to a crowded coffee scene in the Pinellas/ Hillsborough County area with exceptional customer service. The two baristas were straight forward and to the point. Being able to indulge in cars and coffee, I'd be happy to drink some of their coffee again with or without classic cars to compensate.
