UPDATE: This has now become a regular spot for me to get work done and have brunch - I’ve tried several of their breakfast dishes and they’re all fantastic and can be accommodated to be vegetarian. The portions are generous and the dishes are always presented with care. Can’t go wrong with any of their pastries either. **Tried this spot a few days ago - and loved it. No wi-fi is the only con, so you need your own hotspot. Great coffee, delicious pastries - haven’t tried their breakfast yet-, plenty of seating and great light due to giant windows, fast and super friendly service, AND sweet tunes. ?

Located in a beautiful part of St Pete. This is a hip coffee shop that offers a variety of hot and cold coffees and teas. They also have a selection of pastries. The chocolate chip and sea salt cookie was excellent. The location is open with plenty of seating. The biggest downside is that it gets quite warm inside. I'm not sure if they don't have AC or if it just can't keep up with the heat outside. Also, the music is on the louder side so if you are looking for a quiet place, then this isn't for you. However, if you are looking for something uptempo and fun, then head on over.

Really cute place, good coffee and an assortment of pasties.Things to know is there is no Wifi available so you do need to have your own hotspot if you want to work here.I would not recommend this as a study/work place since they do have their own music and it is a bit louder than usual.Great place to hang out with friends or socialize! Bonus is the St. Pete mural on the side

...and there are a lot of them. We sat outside on a hotter day and a nice fellow kept bringing water, "just because it's hot out". That is Bandit, and the people at Bandit, summed up. They specialty muffins. Rolls, etc. Their coffee good, opposed to the bland chains. The owners are on-site, friendly and extremely accommodating. The employees can make anything caffeine related. Bonus (esp for us GEN Xers): They have oat and almond alternatives for those who are no longer able to process lactose. Most major restaurants do not have that sort of consideration. Definitely worth the drive to Central Ave next to Wild Child.

It gives off a very modern vibe. Really like the big window seating area. Co-workers were friendly. It'll be cool to have wifi available.

Delightful, modern coffee shop that makes high-quality coffee feel accessible to all. Their menu covers a variety of coffee, espresso, tea, and speciality drinks so there will certainly be something to suit your fancy.The breakfast menu is DIVINE and portions match expectations for high-quality food. There are vegan options and meat options, plus a wide variety of pastries.We came during the week and it was so peaceful sitting outside in the shade. Definitely a must-visit for coffee aficionados!

We didn’t eat here, but the food looked delicious. It was quite a busy Saturday morning! We ordered a couple lattes and they were made fast for how busy it was. There is a good amount of seating indoors and outside.If I am every back in St. Pete, I would love to try it for brunch.

Everyone has their favorite coffee shop and this one ranks in my top 5 for the Tampa Bay Area. Absolutely love the atmosphere, spaciousness, food, and coffee/drink selections. My go to order is always the avocado toast and matcha latte. We also recently tried the hot honey chicken biscuit sandwich which was very yummy. Definitely would recommend for all to give it a try.

They keep charging us extra for "take out" even though I'm eating in house, I wasn't even asked if my order was to go., they're the most expensve coffee house in st pete as is, i dont see why they have to nikel and dime the customers., since this is NOT the first time this has happened to me I must assume it is a general practice to upcharge the custumers., I guess it's call "bandit" for a reason, it is not that goog, We Will never Comeback.

The coffee is perfect. Strong, not too bitter and not too sweet… basically everything you’re lookin for in the morning to wake you up and put a smile on your face. The food is yummy and has great presentation! Love the vibe and love the people that work here, they make it worth every long line.
