Sadly, within a few months after the opening, the place turned from a cozy cafe into a co-working space.

Whenever we come we can’t longer find a table or coach to have a snack and sip a cup of coffee. All the tables are packed with workers who use the place as a free co-working area. Some are even reserve tables by dropping their stuff and working out somewhere.

Hope the owners do something about this - introduce a policy or laptop-free zone with a few tables for those who come to enjoy just snacks and coffee.

Great new spot at Sparkman Wharf. Interior is beautiful and bright with tons of seating. They have lots of good options for people that like fun lattes (very interested in the cardamom one and also the strawberry basil), but they also have high quality beans for those of us that take our coffee drinking way too seriously. The pastries looked delicious, but I didn’t try one today. As an added bonus, they have tables that charge your phone while you sit. Only drawback is, if you don’t live in walking distance, you’d have to pay to park. Parking is cheap in this city when compared to others, so it’s not too much of negative. Definitely worth a try!

Amazing coffee, staff, and atmosphere! The way the interior of this place is designed reminds me of Connections Café and Eatery at Epcot. Shortwave Coffee is well worth a visit if you're in the area!

Friendly staff and so welcoming. I asked for a recommendation and got a cardamom latte iced that was delicious! Beautiful and serene decor.

Great atmosphere and very good tasting coffee. Got a cold brew with a splash of milk. Everything is high-end and well thought about. Super clean and the staff are wonderful.

Nice local shop. They offer teas and coffees and small breakfast foods and pastries. There's a nice inside seating area and serve your beverage in a glass or ceramic mug if you order to dine in. If you order to go it comes in a normal to go cup for iced or hot drinks.

Just got off our carnival cruise and within walking distance was this fabulous coffee shop! We got the pleasure of being only the second customer and the service was flawless! The white mocha lavender latte was delicious! Highly recommend 🥰

A super cool modern coffee shop with great options.

My wife and I got the Iced Vanilla Sage and the Mint Mayday.

The Mint Mayday has a fresh taste and gives a refreshing feel with fresh mint leaves in the drink.

The Iced Vanilla Sage Latte is a great vanilla latte with great depth of flavor.

10/10 will be returning here.

Apple sage scone was delicious, nice and flaky. Atmosphere is nice and the staff was helpful. Would highly recommend

Great coffee place in Tampa near Sparkman Wharf. The service was quick with plenty of seating. And to make it even better, the wireless smartphone charges really had my buddy and I excited. Would definitely come here again.
