    Cute decor
    Andrea S.

    What a cute finished cottage turned kitsch cat coffee house. Blink and you'll miss it. This cute ancient cottage hosts an eyeful of purple decor with all kinds of surprises. Clothes, socks, hair ribbons, pastries, empanadas, panna cotta and of course coffee and tea. After chatting up the resident baristas and empanada chef, i chose a creamsicle cold coffee and an ubé panna cotta. Both were delicious. Funky music playing in the background, college students studying and free wifi. Def worth the hunt to find it. The baristas are very sweet and explained all their offerings.

    Stopped in for a coffee and breakfast sandwich. The coffee was great, the breakfast sandwich (egg and cheese on croissant) was okay. The restaurant itself is very cool and there's a lot of merchandise options for purchase - a lot of art. They have a ton of milk options as well. Our server was nice and prompt.

    We decided to hit a few of the coffee shops that were part of the month long coffee battles. Felicitous was our first stop! It was a cute house and we chose to sit outside on the cute side patio. They served our drinks pretty quickly. I had the teachers pet and my friend chose the honey bee. Both were served hot and were delicious!

    Personal anniversary coffee tour today. 1st stop was "earthy". Location is nice, hidden from main street as this is down from USF. Stick to the ice/hot stuff, food is decent, no grilling = panini or microwave . So a bit bummed on that.

    The inside decoration is very eclectic and looks more like a house than a coffee shop. The lavender latte was okay for me. Not my favorite but I prefer things a little more sweet so it might be good for serious coffee drinkers.

    I am so pleased every single time I visit Felicitous. Let's start with the fact that it's a charming little house with creaky wooden floors lol my vintage/antique lovers will get me with this one. No but in all seriousness: I deeply appreciate the creativity they've clearly put into their drink flavoring options. I tried "The Floridian" latte today (orange mocha) and it was amaaazing. Orange and mocha just work so well together in my opinion, specially coupled with espresso and milk. Pair all of this goodness with friendly counter service and you've got yourself a nice little coffee shop experience.

    I found this place on a whim. It's a quaint little coffee house with a lot of character. I stopped in on my way to work for a cold brew. They told me that they roast their beans in house which was neat. The coffee was pretty good. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The staff was friendly . There were a lot of students present and probably a local hangout for nearby USF. They have a unique vibe.

    Felicitous is the coffee shop I didn't even know I needed. And now I can't live without it. I had a few hours to kill between errands, and yelped for a coffee shop. I found Felicitous and headed over. You're greeted by a cute, older looking house that is home to this unique coffee shop. Inside is super cozy and they have free wifi, plenty of outlets and a bunch of seating. The baristas were so nice and patient with me when selecting my order. Their coffee menu is out of this world, especially the signature lattes. I literally couldn't even choose one. I already can't wait to come back and choose a different one. Today, I tried the Teacher's Pet, which was peanut butter mocha in a latte. I mean.... Could they be anything better in the world than that?? It was so good! I got it half sweetened and it was the perfect amount of rich for me. Lastly, the vibes here are everything. Taylor swift was playing softly in the background, and I honestly just got such a feeling of calm and peacefulness being here. Like I said, I didn't even know that this place was what I exactly needed. I highly highly recommend you come for a delicious latte and a breath of fresh air from your busy lives. 12/10!!!!

    I love coming to felicitous, no only for their amazing coffee and food. But the warm environment always makes me feel at home and safe. The food came out very fast and they add a personal touch by all the food being in regular glasses and order with your name I love this place and would always recommend

    Lovely little cafe near USF! Great for a coffee and a treat. I had an iced caramel latte and it was one of the best lattes I've had in a while in Tampa. The cafe itself was artsy and fun to look around while you wait. They had clothing and other items available for purchase. The outdoor area was my favorite part of this place. It had plenty of seating and it looks like they hold events and markets there! I'm excited to go back with friends!

    Felicitous is a hidden little gem near USF and one of the beautiful cafes in the area. It has a lot of seating options along with the free wi-fi which helps students to work. The atmosphere at the cafe is positive and calm with the beautiful artworks inside the cafe. The cafe has a lot of different coffee options along with the small bites and plates to eat along with the coffee. After exploring the menu from the menu I ordered Mocha and Bagel with Cream Cheese Spread. The service was also good and I got my mocha coffee in 5 minutes. The coffee was hot, freshly brewed and delicious coffee. I also got the bagel in 5 minutes which was hot and roasted along with the cream cheese spread which makes it delicious. Definitely a place to hang out with friends and enjoy coffee as well as small bites. Do stop by Felicitous when you are in the area.

    The outside vibes are fantastic for a cool "winter" day in Tampa. However, I found their AC to be really weak with how many people were inside. We managed to stay for a few hours, but were sweating. The drinks were pretty unique, which meant the price was on the higher end.

Well they did and boy am I glad they did because I LOVE Kalesia and loved having the chance to show it to new people. I was just afraid there'd be too many of us. But I got super lucky and there was a large open table. Everyone really enjoyed their drinks. They all got the fancy blends but I'm perfectly happy with my "teatannic" (the largest size and that name cracks me up) Moroccan Mint. So refreshing iced. This is a delightful, cozy, Asian themed café. There are a few food options like bahn mi and rice bowls and tons of tea and a few latte options. The service is always so friendly and I always see little groups hanging out and chatting and individuals doing some studying or working. They even have a gorgeous quiet room, set up to take your shoes off and sit comfortably on the floor and study or write or work in peace. I could definitely see bringing my laptop and working on a novel with a delicious, comforting tea. I haven't tried the food yet because every time I come here it's either right before or right after dinner plans, but it looks and smells SO good and my time is coming!

Definitely have everything a new collector might want but may not have the deep cuts a long-time collector (like me) would be looking to purchase. Prices - a tad high. But I expected that considering I'm in a metropolitan area. Their rent is probably super high, but I don't mind paying an extra $2-3 per book to keep an independent store open. Regarding those deep cuts: - I did find some authors that I think are often overlooked, including Richard K. Morgan, Chuck Tingle, and Ann Leckie. - I was saddened to see that there was no Ronald Malfi in stock, which I find to be a mainstay in horror. - There was no Between the Buried and Me vinyl in stock, which saddens me due to concert tonight (that's why I drove all the way to this coast). Rating - 4.2/5.0

    My husband and I absolutely loved Bakery 1908! It's such a fun experience from the minute you walk…read morein. You grab a tray and a pair of tongs and make your way through the bakery, with separate glass display cases for the sweet and savory pastries. You just pick whatever looks good -- which is dangerous because everything looks good! First of all, the prices are fantastic. Most of the buns are under $4. My absolute favorite was the ham and cheese bun. The bun is slightly sweet and the ham and cheese are savory, and the combination is SO good. The blueberry bun was another favorite -- it almost had a blueberry cheesecake flavor. We also tried the curry bun, which was delicious. We ordered several of the hot items too. The har gow (shrimp dumplings) were outstanding. They have a delicate steamed wrapper filled with plump, juicy shrimp, and these were honestly some of the best I've ever had. I've eaten in multiple restaurants in Chinatown in both Los Angeles and San Francisco, so that's saying a lot! The Shanghai dumplings, which are little soup dumplings filled with meat and broth, were also delicious. We also tried the steamed pork ribs. The flavor was very good, but steamed pork has a different appearance and there were some fatty pieces. I'm glad we tried them, but they're probably the one thing I wouldn't order again. Another huge plus was the pricing on the hot food -- every hot entrée we looked at was under $10. Between the two of us, we ordered seven different things, couldn't even finish everything, and our entire check was only $46. Great quality, great variety, and an incredible value. I will definitely be back. I was going to say I wish there were one closer to us...but maybe it's a good thing there isn't, because I would probably eat those ham and cheese buns every day! Five stars!

    Extremely disappointing customer service, especially from the manager…read more I placed an order for two milk tea drinks at 1:24 PM. While waiting, I watched another customer receive her drinks even though I was already ahead of her by approximately four customers in line. At 1:32 PM, I approached the gentleman at the counter to ask about my order. He did not greet me or acknowledge me. He looked at my receipt, looked at his watch, and dismissively said, "It's not even 10 minutes." He then asked me, "What do you want to do?" When I asked what he meant, he told me I could either wait or get my money back. He checked in the back and came back telling me it would be another five minutes. I agreed to wait. Five minutes later, instead of simply addressing the delay or apologizing, he told me I could grab a bun while I waited. I explained that I already had a bun and that, considering the inconvenience and the way the situation was handled, I felt a discount would have been an appropriate gesture. Instead, he offered to refund my money and gave me another receipt without the drinks. The most disappointing part was Norman, the manager. At no point did he apologize, acknowledge the inconvenience, or make any genuine effort to resolve the situation professionally. As a manager, I expected him to step in, listen to the customer, and demonstrate some level of courtesy and accountability. Instead, his attitude left me with the very clear impression that he simply did not care whether he had my business or not. I completely understand that a bakery can get busy and that orders can sometimes take longer than expected. The issue wasn't simply the wait--it was the attitude and the complete lack of customer service. A simple apology and a professional response could have completely changed the experience. Unfortunately, I left feeling dismissed and unappreciated as a customer. Management should understand that customers remember how they are treated, especially when something goes wrong. I will not be returning, and I hope the owners take this feedback seriously and address how customers are being treated by management.

Considering myself to be a doughnut connoisseur of sorts, the idea of mini doughnuts has always presented itself in a playful and "not-to-be-taken seriously" manner. What I mean is that I feel you get more enjoyment-per-bite capita with the larger donuts based on the available surface area and fried dough real estate. Dapper Doughnuts appears to capture the spirit of Ed Anderson and Lil' Orbits, reenergizing Hostess Donettes, while bringing the Duck Donuts production line into the fold. The end product is a freshly made and customized mini-doughnut that melts in your mouth, proving that the mini-doughnut can stand its ground amongst its giant cousins. Their menu boasted a healthy selection of doughnut varietals, while offering drinks to pair. There were definitely some favorites amongst these gourmet doughnuts, but all-in-all they were all reliable when it came to tastes and satisfaction.
