The Lab Coffee - West Tampa

Best iced dirty chai I've ever tasted! I really enjoyed the employees honesty when it came down to the muffins. That Lemon Poppy muffin really did SLAP tho!🔥👋🏽

I'll be returning there soon enough for another incredible experience.

my fav coffee shop in tampa! baristas are super nice and the coffee is spectacular :) I always end up getting bags of beans from Zeal at The Lab when I'm in Tampa, their beans are so good both for pourover and espresso, so def pick up a bag if ur there!

The Lab Coffee is THE go-to coffee spot in Tampa. They roast their own coffee in the facility and the baristas are some of the coolest, most knowledgeable people in the coffee scene that you’ll meet. Whether you want a pour over or a vanilla ice latte, you’re going to be served only the highest quality coffee, prepared by professionals. On top of it all, they have some delicious sandwich options made in-house with homemade sauces.

The attention to detail that the entire team from The Lab puts in, for their customer experience and their product, is beyond top notch. They go far above and beyond caring deeply about coffee. They care about the people they serve. The entire team operates the shop with empathy and creativity, making the baristas feel like a modern day bartender who will make you the best drink you’ve ever had while getting to know you and genuinely listening and caring. The Lab is a must visit shop in Tampa, and there a lot of other places you could go. I’d even bet the baristas at The Lab would love to make recommendations on other spots to visit and support (after you’ve gone to The Lab, of course)! Don’t miss out on the unique experience that they have to offer. Get to The Lab as soon as you can! And don’t forget your mask :)

TLDR: Good coffee, good sandwiches, not a bad place to work remotely.

The Lab Coffee is just a short walk from my place, which makes it super convenient for both coffee and working remotely.

I usually get there shortly after open and stay for a few hours. It can get a little busy and loud after 9, but normally it’s just people come in for coffees to go.

The pour overs are great, but the house drip is just as good and much faster so I let my need for caffeine dictate what I order.

Coffee is served in mugs, not disposable cups which is a huge plus. They are are also friendly to using your own glasses and mugs, too.

As for food, the sausage bagel sandwich is my go-to but the bacon, egg, and gouda Cuban is good too. Everyone raves about the hangover cure, but I haven’t been that gluttonous yet.

Hands down the best coffee in Tampa. And the owners are wonderful people. They always take the time to teach me something new about coffee. If you go, make sure to grab one of Pete's mom's muffins!

The coffee is amazing, the staff is super friendly, and most importantly I feel safe going there amidst COVID-19. I appreciate them taking the health and safety of their employees and customers seriously. Also, they’re dog friendly and that is wonderful.

Quaint little hole in the wall serving excellent food and beverages. They have multiple roasts for your varied drinking pleasure and prepare those coffees in multiple ways. Whether you're looking for cold, hot, steamed, drip, Frenched, Chi, or espresso you won't go wrong at "The Lab." They sell their grinds for around $15 bucks, organic and gluten free muffins for like $4 or 5, prepare delicious egg sandwiches on everything from Cuban to waffles ($5.50-$9.00) and offer other things like books, growlers and company merch. They don't rush too prepare your order, that's important because your coffee and food are crafted not hurried. That said, everything happens in a timely manner and you're not made to wait.

The coffee experts at the Lab know how to extract every bit of flavor from their premium, small-batch roasted Zeal Coffee beans. Pete and Jason have been working in the Tampa coffee industry for years and are incredibly knowledgeable and well-experienced. The Lab is a necessary stop if you’re seeking the best coffee in Tampa.
