Magic Happens Here
The Coffee Mission
Our mission is simple and focused around our customers. We want to give coffee drinkers a space they can take back. Great tasting brews, food and pastries in a comfortable, speakeasy getaway.
The Blind Tiger Difference
The Blind Tiger Cafe is more than a coffee shop.
Our spaces are a unique combination of retail meets coffee shop. We offer quality textiles, coffee supplies and more.
A TASTE FOR QUALITY
A coffee shop isn’t a coffee shop without quality product.
Each cup of brew started from slow-roasted coffee beans. It’s all in the details.
More About Our Roots
WHY THE BLIND TIGER
A speakeasy, commonly referred to as a “Blind Tiger” is an establishment that illegally sold alcohol and asked patrons to “speak easy” while inside to help avoid exposure. Our name pays homage to those who kept the immigrant workers fueling those trades well-oiled and ready to conquer another day.
Our brand was built on the unwavering love of the ingenuity and creativity which has paved the way for our success. We honor the heritage of the historic culture which built similar neighborhoods across the country and provide a one-of-a-kind experience to the coffee connoisseurs of Tampa Bay.
We serve those who demand quality and richness in the small pleasures of life by only selling the best original roasts. Just like speakeasies were once an illegal place where culture was brewed, in every sip of Blind Tiger’s signature blend the boldness of flavor should be prohibited.
What Flavor Are You
The Crew
Espresso
A precisely brewed ristretto style coffee shot using our unique blend of Rwandan, Colombian and Sumatran beans.
Cafe Bombon
Our most popular Cafe Latte style beverage. We steam a couple ounces of sweetened condensed milk into your milk choice to make a rich sweet drink.
Espresso Bombon
The traditional Bombon. We carefully layer a double shot of espresso over equal parts sweetened Condensed milk to create an intense, sweet, espresso-based shot of coffee.
Cappuccino
A classic milk-foam espresso beverage. We create a 6-8oz cappuccino with our double shot of espresso and equal parts hot milk and foam to achieve the ideal texture and intensity.
Eiskaffè
Originally a German delicacy. We use our house-made cold brewed coffee over a scoop of vanilla ice cream to create an almost “root beer float” of coffee topped with whipped cream and chocolate powder. A perfect after dinner treat!
Affogato
An indulgent coffee dessert. We pull our fresh double shot over a scoop of vanilla ice cream and let the two flavors melt together as you enjoy them.
Cafe Mocha
A familiar variant of the Cafe Latte, the mocha is made with a double shot, two ounces of our house-made mocha sauce and either hot or cold milk.
Cold Brew
We use a cold, slow-brewing Toddy method to achieve a smooth and less acidic iced coffee concentrate. Great over ice or with cream and sugar!
