Hands down the best vegan-friendly coffee shop in Tampa. The house latte with oat milk is perfect every time, and the breakfast sandwich actually tastes like a real diner sandwich.

Coffee Co.
The place
Spaddy's Coffee Co. is a specialty coffee shop and plant-based cafe at 5206 N Florida Ave in Seminole Heights, Tampa. The shop serves espresso drinks, pour-overs, and house lattes alongside a fully vegan and vegetarian food menu. Spaddy's is recognized as one of Tampa's most prominent plant-based cafes, with a 4.8-star Google rating across 797 reviews. The cafe offers indoor and outdoor seating, free Wi-Fi, and is dog-friendly on the patio. Locally owned and independent, Spaddy's roasts highlight ethically sourced beans and rotating seasonal drinks. The shop is walkable from the Seminole Heights commercial corridor and offers takeout in addition to dine-in service.
Tucked along N Florida Ave in the heart of Seminole Heights, Spaddy's Coffee Co. has become one of Tampa's go-to neighborhood cafes. The space leans warm and unfussy — wood tables, local art on the walls, and a steady hum of laptops and regulars. It's the kind of independent coffee shop the neighborhood is known for, and a frequent stop on Seminole Heights coffee crawls.
Order the house latte or a single-origin pour-over, and pair it with something from the fully plant-based food menu — vegan breakfast sandwiches, avocado toast, baked goods, and seasonal specials rotate through the case. The matcha and cold brew also get repeat mentions in Google reviews, and dairy-free milks are standard rather than upcharged extras.
Spaddy's is walk-in only — no reservations needed — with a small parking lot on site and easy street parking along the side streets. The patio is dog-friendly, takeout is available at the counter, and the cafe is a comfortable spot to camp out with a laptop. Hours skew toward mornings and early afternoons, so plan an early visit for the full menu.

Great Seminole Heights spot. Friendly baristas, strong espresso, and a chill patio where I can bring my dog. Cold brew is excellent on a hot Tampa morning.
Spaddy's is my go-to remote-work cafe. Reliable Wi-Fi, comfortable seating, and the matcha latte is the best in the neighborhood. Fully plant-based menu is a huge plus.
