After almost 10 years, the original Blind Tiger Coffee Roaster has outgrown its location.

Owner Roberto Torres has signed a new lease at 1823 E 7th Ave., where Blind Tiger will take over the space formerly home to dive bar Boneyard, which closed last month after nearly three decades in the historic district.

Tampa Bay Business Journal says Torres expects to open by the end of the year.

The original Blind Tiger has been open in its 1,300 square-foot, location at 1901 E 7th Ave. just a block away since 2014. The move nearly doubles the space for the coffee business, with 4,000 square feet.

A rep for Blind Tiger told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay that their team worked with Boneyard’s owners to continue the dive’s legacy, adding that the new space will feature an upstairs speakeasy, be much larger and featuring an expanded menu that includes happy hour drinks, appetizers etc.

Torres told TBBJ the new location— a “six-figure” investment—will serve breakfast and include a lot of cosmetic changes to the former Boneyard space, adding that, “People need to eat with their eyes first, and if you look at what’s happening, it needs to be an Instagram-able place.”
