The Blind Tiger Cafe

Our Story

The first Blind Tiger Cafe originated in the heart of Ybor City, a historic Tampa neighborhood steeped in rich cigar-making tradition. Driven by a passion for exceptional coffee and a desire to revive this classic legacy, our founders envisioned a unique space that blended the captivating atmosphere of a speakeasy with the indulgence of high-quality, handcrafted coffee. Inspired by the hidden allure and craftmanship of these clandestine establishments, they aimed to create a Blind Tiger that would offer coffee so exceptional, it would seem almost illegal to enjoy.
