I absolutely want these cookies again!…read more Found this little gem when a nearby coffee shop did not have any parking and I'm so happy it happened that way. Ambiance is fairly quiet and absolutely adorable. Many guest spread out reading, working out just catching up. The team was happy to recommend from the menu, i had the hardest time picking between all the treats.

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.

My friend and I are working through as many cinnamon roll spots as we can in tampa bay and St Pete…read more There were lots of reviews saying they had the best and I can agree, they are top notch! 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!

I highly recommend Tico's Bakery. I especially loved their croissants. They are large, airy, crisp…read more(the perfect amount of crisp), and a great ratio of filling-to-croissant. Best croissants I've had. They also have sandwiches made with sourdough bread, prosciutto, fresh orange juice, and more. You can tell this bakery crafts everything with love and attention to detail. The staff is welcoming and the interior is very pretty with trendy wood panel slatted walls & has a fun wall with a neon sign for a social media op. There are also a decent amount of tables and seating if you want to sit and eat your pastries (as you probably will want to do that right then and there after seeing the pastries ).

Beautiful Bakery! Love that it is on 7th Ave in Ybor in a beautiful building!…read morePretty signage, easy to find parking. Friendly service, very busy Saturday morning bakery. Hard to see all of the selections at a time with a really long line. Would be great to see the offerings that day on a screen upon entering, even if you're at the back of the line. Reasonable prices, nice & happy employees!

Stopped through here for the first time on a Saturday morning while our daughter was at dance…read morerehearsal, it wasn't busy and we were greeted and taken care of right away. It's a cute little bakery/coffee shop, it's very unsuspecting from the outside. We ordered the el mananero breakfast sandwich - really delicious! The Puerto Rican bread was perfect, the cheese was melty, overall just a really good breakfast sandwich. We also got a quesito and guayaba con queso pastelillito - awesome pastries, great flavor. We will definitely be back when we're in the area, not sure how we haven't visited sooner!

Will definitely be a regular here. They have a little free library and pantry. Board games for use. Love their third space energy. Came back the next day (today) and I was running late for work. Called in ahead and they made coffee for me ready to go! I was able to drop cash and pick up my drink in 60 seconds. Out the door! Super appreciate saving that extra few minutes to get to work on time.

Walking inside it's definitely a chill vibe very quiet. Definitely could get some work done here but it is limited seating. They has all the coffee shop essentials I decided to go with a cafe con Leche and also ordered a squash pastry they had in the display case. While my coffee was being made they warmed up the pastry for me which I wasn't expecting but I'm happy they did because definitely was delicious. It tasted like a warm veggie pizza without cheese and it had so much flavor! My coffee was incredibly smooth and a good amount of sweetness. I will definitely be making another trip soon.

Coffee is STRONG and food is fresh. I'm not a big coffee person but my boyfriend ordered his usual…read morecortado and said it was almost too strong to drink (in a good way). I kept things simple with a toasted everything bagel which tasted great. It's more of a to-go place as there isn't much room or seating inside. The three dudes running the front also bring a fun vibe not in line with your typical coffee shop - loud music, Halloween decor, etc. There is a fun mural outside too great for pictures.

If DI sponsors it, I'd get the logo tattooed on me…read more I love this place. The happiest and most welcoming staff. They will walk you through the whole menu if you let them, also they all do a great job of getting things out fast and quick (despite having big lines at times) From food to drinks they have just about everything you can imagine. Cubans, pastries, quiches and every syrup for your coffee you could want. Also, they do jazz nights on Friday with a live band. You pair that with the 20 bottle wine dispenser, you can have yourself a night. DI coffee bar is the best. Hands down.

Even more important: it's a social enterprise that helps people coming back from addiction, homelessness, mental illness and the criminal justice system to find redemption and hope.

There was ample parking available in the parking lot in the rear of the event space.

The inside looks like a grand cathedral.
