The Blind Tiger Cafe - SOHO - South Howard - Coffee Shop

Love this little coffee shop. Great atmosphere, great coffee, and they're even vegan friendly! Prices are great (compared to a typical downtown coffee shop, or even Starbucks), Free WiFi of course, and they've just recently added an apparel shop where you can buy cool soho themed things.

The hours are a little short in my opinion, but they're open longer at the end of the week starting Friday.

Parking is what you'd expect in Soho, you have to park in one of the few public lots and walk the rest of the way to the shop.

Coffee was very good. I got a Lavendar Latte.
I also bought the grilled cheese sandwhich with puree tomato soup dip.
They didnt mention that they didnt have the tomato soup, and only after questioning if it was suppose to come with it as clearly defined on the menu, did the lady say "oh we dont have that."
They did not make any attempt to offer anything else in its place. I was pretty disappointed. The sandwhich was okay, but nothing I couldnt make at home. All in all, not a place I would go out of my way to go to.

I am a big Blind Tiger fan. I work in Ybor and have been a regular to that location for sometime. I was in the area and needed a pick me up so I stopped into the SOHO location. It was a bit later in the day on a Sunday, but still around 2 hours before close but was still met with a rude demeanor from the man that took my order. I have worked in a coffee shop and am a certified barista so I understand the desire to begin cleaning early and the frustration or customers coming later and setting you back. However, it isn't an excuse to express that frustration on the customer. I love the coffee so I will just stick to the morning hours at my local shop. Definitely leaves the door open to losing a regular to another roaster. Buddy Brew is just up the street.

Great coffee shop in Soho, delightful alternative to the Starbucks up the road. Informal, comfortable, great coffee. Good breakfast sandwiches.

I guess it is an adequate coffee cafe, but it is a bit confusing and the parking is NOT free as advertised on their web site. The parking is actually rather expesive and you have to download an app to make your parking fee payments (which doesn't seem to accept Paypal). They have no printed menus, and like too many places, you have to use your phone to bring up and read their online menu. If you are seated outside, you have no access to even that. I doubt that we will return to the Blind Tiger Cafe.

I sincerely want everyone to know how amazing this coffee shop is! The staff is professional, polite and personable. I stop in multi times a week and they always remember me as well as what I like to order, even down to the two Splenda verses equal in my coffee! Stop in, enjoy the free WiFi, have a coffee, order food and support the local community, you will be glad you did. 😉

I love coffee so for that reason taste all the coffee shops around the world and this one is really good.
Breakfast and latte 👌🏾

Great atmosphere and friendly people! It’s such a cool place with some nice, artistic touches. I had an iced chai and a blueberry muffin. The tea was great and the muffin was one of the best I’ve ever had!

Unbelievably good!
Jason and the staff at Blind Tiger serve nothing but excellence. I walked in expecting caffeine & food, but ended up receiving 1 of the best breakfast experiences I could have had. Ordered:
The Breakfast Sandwich- Eggs were perfect. The soft bread, crunchy arugula, and acidity from the tomato was perfectly balanced and delicious.
The Espresso Bombon- Hands down BEST coffee drink I'VE EVER HAD! I'm an espresso junky. The touch of the sweet condensed milk was unforgettable and has set a very high bar for future espresso/ cortado type drinks.

The star of the show though, was the friendliness of the ppl and how inviting everyone was. From the nice woman taking my order, to the chef, managers, and barista, everyone was attentive and kind.

Good coffee and cute spot. Did not try the food. Minus one star for the employee who rolled their eyes to another employee over my wife's order. Yeah, I saw that. Minus one more star due to some cleanliness issues in the dining room and some things I spotted behind the counter. When your competitor has a long line out the door, there's a reason for that. You need to step things up a notch.
