What customers say

After making my rounds through the coffee purveyors of the Tampa Bay area for nearly 20 years, I'm done. I've made my decision. The Lab gets the crown. This unassuming, easy to miss location puts out the absolute highest quality product in a few distinct areas that are near and dear to my heart: #1 - Dirty Chai Latte…

I stumbled upon this place after visiting the nearby animal shelter. I noticed parking was difficult but it might’ve been due to my lack of knowledge of the area. Their coffee prices are really reasonable, with a high quality blend. I also grabbed their hangover cure burrito, it was fantastic!

Unfortunately, the best cappuccino in Tampa. I say unfortunately because I have to drive far to get here and parking is limited 😅 Smooth, rich, silky. The only way to describe it. The notes they say the coffee beans have are the notes I can taste. Not milky. Costs less than $5.

★★★★★ — L, 2025-12

I was in the neighborhood looking for a coffee spot and chanced upon this place. It has that funky yet fun grunge factor with a welcoming vibe. I opted for a cortado (excellent) then added a steak burrito.
