Whether you pass the downtown’s One Tampa City Center on your daily commute or you’re staying in a nearby hotel, you’re about to have easy access to Blind Tiger coffee.
The local chain—which hopes to have nine locations open before 2022—is set to open a downtown Tampa location at 201 N Franklin St. in December, according to the Tampa Bay Times, which said that the new Blind Tiger will not only have more space, but other kinds of brew including non-alcoholic beer and biodynamic wine.
Two other locations are set to open this year, but specifics are still TBA. If you don’t want to wait for lucky number seven to open, you can still get your fix at one of the shop’s six other locations around the bay, including the flagship in Ybor City, one in Sparkman Wharf and another at Westshore Plaza.
