Finally! A cozy cafe with an ambience like no other place in Tampa! I was so excited to try out…read moretheir coffee. They have unique flavors and blends that are absolutely delicious. The cafe itself was easy to find. Parking lot is large and easy to find. As soon as I walked in, you can sense a feeling of calmness and peace. They played classical piano instrumentals and it honestly gave me the best experience. This says a lot about a place because it's not just good coffee it's also having a quiet clean cafe that's good on the eye. And the music ?- YES ! Now the coffee. I can simply say after traveling all over the world and being incredibly picky with my coffee, Lunar coffee is 10/10 and rated the BEST in Tampa. My go to spot now.

I made two mistakes while I was at this super chill spot in my old stomping grounds of Temple…read moreTerrace: 1) I didn't check the seasonal offerings before I ordered (and the menu was right there!) and 2) I took my chai tea latte to go. I should have stayed... and soaked up the zen vibes. But I had errands to run, for my third and final Christmas party (I know, in mid January) (!), so I dashed. But this just means I have to go back. Lunar Coffee is in the end unit of a two story building, with a big gorgeous tree out front. It's shady and peaceful- you forget busy 56th Street is right out there. There's a private parking lot with lots of spaces. It's a little tight-and there are lots of businesses that share that lot. Don't let it scare you off. It's worth it. The shop is so clean-with lots of table seating and some high counter seating at the front. There was soothing music on when I was there, on a cool Thursday morning. There were lots of customers but it didn't seem frantic or hectic. It's like everyone just leaves their stress at the door. You feel it sort of roll right off you. I had the most pleasant gal take my order. She was very sweet. I should have asked her more questions about the treats I saw in the glass case and about the menu. I should have taken more time. Now I know better. There's a lot to like here-and I'll be back to enjoy it.

There are a ton of baked goods that smell SO good, I unfortunately did not order food, but next time I sure will! The service here is awesome, Cameron is a sweetheart and really funny and fun to talk to. If you need suggestions Cameron is more than willing to help there. For my coffee I got the specialty spring break in Tokyo, iced which was a nice light refreshing drink that I thoroughly enjoyed but the menu has a lot of options which makes it really hard to pick. The boutique items while few are super cute, from clothes to cat clips, pins, stickers and jewelry, definitely a lot of fun to dig through. For seating they have a good amount of seating, but the place does get filled up quick. There is also very little parking right infront but there is overflow parking in the lot next door. Too bad this cute little gem is so far away from me, if it were closer, this would definitely be a go to spot for me!

You'd never guess busy Fowler Avenue and all those shiny new businesses are just steps away. This is free-spirited, relaxing and zen. You can study here, chill-out and reset. It's colorful and very sunny, but it would also be the snuggliest place to sit while it's raining and just sip away and read. There are so many drink and food options here. I had the pistachio matcha with strawberry cold foam and a spinach/feta pastry. Both were good choices. You can order at the register or from a QR code and they'll call you to come get it. It's so casual and laid back. This adorable hangout would melt away any work frazzles I could possible walk in with. I love the low ceilings and the vintage hardwood floors and the slouchy couch and the eastern light streaming in the front window of this older, repurposed home. There's original artwork everywhere, including the ceiling (some of it's for sale). There's also a rack of clothing items, jewelry, scrunchies and other items for sale. I love the eclectic vibe-and the guitar propped up by the front window. Phoebe could definitely sing "Smelly Cat" here. Heck, they're so welcoming here, Ross could probably set up his keyboard and share "the sound." They DO have live music here-and a side patio. There's some parking up front and extra parking in back. And the service is friendly. I'm so glad I found this spot. I'll be back to try the apple fritter croissant and soak up more relaxation. Happy days from Felicitous!

I've been to both locations. The service is great at either location…read more The Bearss Avenue location is in a strip mall. You can sip on a specialty coffee or enjoy a cup of tea. Prices are reasonable for coffee in this day and time. Visit once and you'll want to visit again.

We had a decaf mocha and seasonal matcha. The drinks were very mediocre unfortunately. Earth day matcha was cold (which I didn't know) and thy were able to make it hot after I received it. Even then it was way too sweet and I could only have a few sips. Mocha decaf didn't have a nice quality to it, didn't seem like they use good decaf beans. So everything except the drinks was great.

Service: the staff here is really wonderful! Everyone is friendly and kind and so knowledgeable about all the teas! Ambiance: it's an intimate space with indoor and outdoor seating. They have a giant wall of loose leaf tea so def grab a bag to go before leaving. You won't regret coming here, I pinky promise! Love it so much!

Apparently, the Dapper Doughnuts-Tampa location is now permanently closed…read more This comes as a shock since Dapper Doughnuts offers an interesting take and concept on the leavened fried dough. Considering myself to be a doughnut connoisseur of sorts, the idea of mini doughnuts has always presented itself in a playful and "not-to-be-taken seriously" manner. What I mean is that I feel you get more enjoyment-per-bite capita with the larger donuts based on the available surface area and fried dough real estate. Dapper Doughnuts appears to capture the spirit of Ed Anderson and Lil' Orbits, reenergizing Hostess Donettes, while bringing the Duck Donuts production line into the fold. The end product is a freshly made and customized mini-doughnut that melts in your mouth, proving that the mini-doughnut can stand its ground amongst its giant cousins. Their menu boasted a healthy selection of doughnut varietals, while offering drinks to pair. There were definitely some favorites amongst these gourmet doughnuts, but all-in-all they were all reliable when it came to tastes and satisfaction. I feel that I was finally able to write this review after going to Dapper Doughtnuts a couple of times - unfortunately, it seems that it has come a bit too late. Dapper Doughnuts sits in the University Collection plaza along Fowler Avenue, which is a convenient location for various retail stores and restaurants. Best wishes to the future of the company, and hopefully they can make their return to the larger doughnut market!

Maya and her Mom provided great service. Maya answered some questions and made great recommendations. Once we decided what we wanted, Maya took our orders. Her suggestions were spot on from the home fries to the caramel for the fresh fruits. I ordered the 3 Egg Combo (scrambled) with Home Fries, Turkey Bacon, and Fresh Fruits. I had Coffee to drink. The food came out quickly. We were served a generous portion of food. It was delicious. In the end, I didn't feel overstuffed or bloated after eating most of my food.

Great amount of roasted pork and fresh ham. One of the best I've ever had and definitely the best in the USF/north Tampa area! 9/10 Open Sundays but closed M/Tues No complaints!

When ordering, was told they had no pork, which goes on their Cuban Sandwich, the "award winning" sandwich they are known for. Not sure how this happens when it's your "thing". Took over an hour to get food. The side salad was not good. It had lettuce, a few shaved carrots, and that it. The burger and chicken cordon bleu sandwich were good. Place will be good once they get their act together.
