Felicitous (on 51st)

Felicitous, so aptly named, has been a regular coffee… er stomping ground of mine for many years. The laid back atmosphere, many times full of the studious, also felt inviting to the professional or causal visitor. Featuring an eclectic mix of pastries and standard caffeine fare, this will continue to be one of my favorites in Tampa.

This place deserves 6 stars!!! Legitimately the best espresso drinks, matcha, and vibes in Tampa. I’m obsessed with their Dreamcatcher latte (vanilla and lavender). The portions are huge, and they have so many creative, delectable sounding drinks I can’t wait to try. I will come here on the weekends and spend upwards of 5-6 hours doing homework, and buying drinks and snacks. One of my favorite coffee shops ever.

Ok now THIS is a coffee shop! It's a converted cozy looking home. It's like walking into Grandma's house just as she's making amazing coffee. Great atmosphere and super friendly service and YESSS my coffee was perfect!

I order coffee and Cuban cheese toast most days during the work week. The baristas are so friendly and creative. Parking can be tricky but if you drive to the left of the building there is a huge lot in the back. I love sitting outside on a Sunday afternoon with a book and a latte! The folks that work there are so kind and really get to know you 🙂

Felicitous is a place worth checking out when it comes to exploring new coffee places. Small, cozy, aesthetically pleasing and full of many options ranging from buying home baked goods to cute clothes (Miss Miluku brand), earrings and rings, renting books to read ect. Literally the cutiest place ever 🤍🤍

Having an indoor and outdoor seating both options are comfy! Parking is limited, you either have front parking or back.

Depending who is working the shift the energy of the place is always either sparkly and energetic or calm and quiet. (I love both) 💞⭐️

☕️:
I will say for my taste in alternative milk coffee I give their iced lattes 5/10 flavor. It’s very “I made this at home” type of coffee. The milk is too thick kinda like Silk and the expresso used for the latte seems more like a water down brew.

So your latte won’t really have the latte feel. more like water down coffee. You can see it too once they hand you the latte. Some people may like that and that’s great! For those of you who like their lattes like I do. Your expectations won’t be met.

Cute place! I got a chocolate croissant, and they heated it for me but it was dense. Not crispy or crunchy in the slightest. However, I think that’s just not their specialty. It’s an adorable place with wonderful staff. Definitely want to come again!

Lots of drink and food options. The seating inside is typically pretty tight and filled up, but they have additional seating outside. There is a small shopping area with jewelery, tshirts, and a few other items that you can look through while waiting in line.

Cozy, eclectic coffee shop. We stopped here instead of choosing a franchise coffee shop due to the reviews. Tried out the honey bear coffee that has the right amount of sweetness to it, just to speak about the toast, great bread really fresh, but if you want the cuban made version with extra butter, this is a lighter toast. Just ask for a little more. Great service!!!

Always a great vibe at Felicitous! Owners are literal sweethearts! Love grabbing an Arabian nights iceed coffee and doing some magical mehndi ✨️

The owners or responders to the comments are always backhanded and rude. As a "ma and pa" shop you'd think that they would want to be kind and inviting to customers, but it seems like they're all trained to tell people their taste buds are wrong or not to complain on google, but that's a reason why its here- so other people can get an honest and transparent review of the place. if you want to build a good customer relationship, why not respond in a more inviting an apologetic way? Personally will never be visiting here again, it was lackluster at best.
