Neighborhood Joe

I’ve walked here for breakfast a handful of times over the past few years, and every single time I leave wondering why I don’t come more often. Last week was no exception! I devoured a delicious tempeh omelette paired with a hazelnut latte and loved every bite and sip. The space is just as charming as the food—walls covered in artwork by local artists and a front display stocked with tempting treats from nearby bakeries. It adds such a thoughtful, community-centered touch. The team is always friendly, happy to share new menu items, and somehow makes every visit feel like I’m enjoying a meal at a friend’s house. It truly has that cozy neighborhood vibe. Thank you for always being such a treat!

Stopped by here while on vacation and hands down some of the best vegan food I’ve ever had!! We got a quiche, the mocha donut, the So gouda sammy, and cuban handheld! 10/10 food, wonderful customer service. Will definitely be back. Thank you :)

Probably the BEST vegan Chai latte I've ever had in St Pete in recent memory [and it was quite large and a GREAT price for the area - under $6]. I ordered it with oat milk, as the very nice gentleman at the cashier told me it was the creamiest of all the "milks" they carry. Creamy and great flavor. I didn't have time for food this time, but their vegan menu and pastries looked AMAZING -- so can't wait to come back and try many of their selections!

Came here for the first time with a friend and had a great experience. It's a nice casual environment with great vegan food/ smoothie options and coffee! I had a quiche, gluten free blueberry pie and the green push smoothie all great! Highly recommend!

Excellent gluten free GF / vg vegan options. Loved the cold brew. Nice staff

My favorite cafe in the Tampa/St Pete area! Staff is extremely welcoming, attentive, and kind! Many vegan options and you can tell the food is made with lots of love! There is wifi and parking available in the rear.

Where do I begin? First, it was our first time in this establishment and we didn't receive a single greeting from any of the associates. The one who attended us had her head on the countertop as if she did not want to be at work. Additionally, there seems to be some kind of stigma against men here, and I know that sounds strange. When my wife ordered it was a very kind experience, yet when I ordered it was met with scrutiny. Furthermore, we ordered a side of tempe bacon and didn't see it on the plate, so I approached the counter to ask and instead hear one of the associates ask "why is he just standing there? Do you know what he wants?" That's after she walked past me to give another customer her order. The food wasn't great either, we ordered an egg sandwich with no cheese, we got an egg sandwich with cheese. We asked to redo it, we get an egg sandwich with half cheese on it. The most astonishing aspect was when we asked for a to-go containers and were told they do not have appropriate containers for the acai bowl we ordered. Instead were offered a cup. Eventually she did appear with small bowls. We do not plan on coming back, this was unacceptable and quite unpleasant.

Breakfast bagel was delicious. The drinks were so yummy. The service was above and beyond. I went to get some work done and they noticed and turned the music down a bit. They were so nice and if I lived here I would go back all the time.

Probably the BEST vegan Chai latte I've ever had in St Pete in recent memory [and it was quite large and a GREAT price for the area - under $6]. I ordered it with oat milk, as the very nice gentleman at the cashier told me it was the creamiest of all the "milks" they carry. Creamy and great flavor. Space was a bit bigger than it looked from outside. Not good for big groups, but ok for individual or duo co-working. Parking looks tricky at first - but plenty available in the back, just around the building. I didn't have time for food this time, but their vegan menu and pastries looked AMAZING -- so can't wait to come back and try many of their selections!

My sister is local to St. Pete and has a coffee passport for the area which brought her to Neighborhood Joe originally. Safe to say the passport works because she's been back several times since then and even brought me on a recent visit. We visited a little later in the day and opted for some of their smoothies, which were great - so much so that I apparently didn't take any pictures before drinking them! They had a pretty appealing array of pastries as well and my sister says their coffee is also good.

When I walked in I thought what a cute spot. I loved the art work on the wall, and the cozy feel. This was my first time in, I ordered a chai latte and blueberry muffin. The Chai latte was good but too much oat milk ,it was almost white and you couldn't really taste the chai but that wasnt a big deal. Service was friendly but here's where the problem occurred. The blueberry muffin was raw in the center. I took it to the counter and showed them the part of the blob from the center, raw dough. I was told it is banana base blueberry muffin. It was not banana that I was showing them, it was raw dough. I bake, I know the difference. It tasted raw, was wet and grainy in the center. I was told, I promise it isnt raw. It was under baked and raw so I threw it away. What a waste of $7, I left upset, and disappointed

Yum! We had a delightful lunch here the other day. The green smoothie and the special tofu pesto sandwich were fantastic! Would definitely come back to try more things (pastries looked sooo good)

I like that they are open for a Late breakfast so I'll call it my brunchfest spot. I really enjoyed the Boujee egg sandwich. The layout of the place is nice & the owner was cool. The Chef...Chef's kiss on those fluffy eggs & my hashbrown was golden. On my next visit I won't forget to get the Ube waffle & if not too cool I'll eat outside & let the sunshine in.

This cute cafe offering coffee, breakfast and lunch is located in St. Petersburg. They also offer vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free. I had the Joe Bennie vegan style $14.95. It was so delicious. Our group enjoyed all the dishes.

Decent coffee, nice people working there. But the "special" blueberry muffin was just raw dough inside. Even after cutting it open and baking it again. I was excited when they told me it had banana and sour cream in the mix but it was inedible.

I ordered the Matcha latte and it was very good. I am happy they serve it in a ceramic mug as I find an increasing number of places that have paper cups only. it has the funky artsy vibe with local artists hanging their wares on the walls.

This is a hidden gem. It's located next to another breakfast place that we had intended on visiting however it was extremely crowded. We decided to go right next door and we were pleasantly surprised. LOVED the service and food. Great vegan options!

Neighborhood Joe doesn't fail to deliver!! I had the delicious tofu scramble and my daughter had the Greek salad and a chai tea . With the added designated parking spots parking was super easy. We brought our favorite furry friend Bobby and the patio was super accommodating along with the iced water for our friend. The atmosphere is great with plenty of unique art on the walls. Can't wait to come back

Great local spot we stumbled upon with tons of Vegan stuff. Most everything can be made Vegan. Everything is fresh. The owner Tom is super friendly, as is the rest of the staff we met. We went 3 mornings in a row while visiting the area. The coffee is really good too! It's a great neighborhood spot. Don't miss it! Sadly I forgot to take pics. But just go!

A perfect little vegan spot right in the heart of St. Pete! Love all the options and the service is always great.

This is the best tasting coffee in all of St. Pete, heads above all the rest. HEADS ABOVE. Just go, and get the oat milk to really give it a nutty rich tastiness.

Free sourdough sandwich Thomas served me here today and it was so unbelievably pleasant. Love the whole vibe of this place and everything was so good

Delicious avocado toast and vegan empanada, though the empanada was cold inside and overpriced as $7.65. I sat outside but the indoor seating was plentiful and clean. The staff was also helpful and my food came out quick.

Comprehensive menu. Lots of vegan options. Reasonably priced. Clean all gender bathroom with pleasant decor. Smooth jazz playing on the loudspeaker loud enuf to appreciate but not loud enough to interfere with conversation. Daily specials and menus clearly displayed on chalk boards.

There seems to be some sort of an issue with the owner. The tall skinny dark haired guy. He seems to have trouble saying hello or smiling. Be that as it may,if there's ever any issue with food or something that he serves he goes from zero to anger right away. The man is definitely what we call "on the Spectrum." While the food is good, he only ever changes the pastry selection. Customers get one cup of coffee and no refills. It's not the worst place in town but he really does not know customer service. For example ordered an omelette with faux bacon. The chef put it in the Omelette I certainly couldn't see it I wanted to ask about it. The clerk was bust and so I tried to ask the owner. He could not be bothered and said to talk with the server. I finally just ordered a side of bacon. When the owner came to deliver the food he was clearly angry that I had even asked about where the bacon was. He then asked me where I worked and he looked angry and turned and walked away while saying that he has my card. The man really has some anger issues. Later on in the day I actually went to another business in the same neighborhood. I was told by the owner of that business that many of the locals there do not go anymore because the owner is just plain old angry. And if you happen to be male and you go in there you will notice one important thing. That is that he will not make eye contact with you and really will try to avoid talking to you. He will only talk to females beyond the bare minimum.

The name says it all--this is a cozy neighborhood coffee shop and cafe where you can get breakfast, lunch, coffee, smoothies, and apparently now wine? I come here for the plentiful vegan options and ever-changing baked goods case. The food is hearty and reasonably priced, and the staff is always very friendly. It's a great place to get some work done or just relax and enjoy some food and drink. Happy to have it in the neighborhood!

Wonderful local spot for breakfast. Had a perfect veggie omelette. Kind staff. Chill coffee place vibe

I've gotten something different here every time and it's all been delicious. Owner seems likes he's usually in the back cooking and the food is so fresh and clean you'll feel great afterwards. Nice coffee shop vibe with quick service and a convenient location.

I really liked this place! I got an iced matcha with oatmilk and vanilla syrup and it is so so good I also got an avocado toast. I got it on sourdough and it was just toast, avocado, tomatoes, and sprouts. It came with crushed red pepper but I am me so I asked for it without the red pepper, kinda came back to bite me though because the toast was super bland and flavorless The barista was so cute

It was very refreshing to see that a restaurant offering plant based options was open and still serving food in a safe manner. I ordered a tofu scramble as well as some vegan muffins and cookies. The food is so fresh and delicious.

Always top-notch experience! Grabbed a Meditteranean quiche this morning for lunch. Took a pic before I gobbled it up to show the massive kalamatas and plentiful sundried tomatoes. The thyme on top was the cherry on top! Service was pleasant and efficient as usual. Great black and white photos displayed added to the ambiance.

First time here at Joes! I've seen it before but never took the time to stop in. I wish I had! They offer a variety of some of my favorite foods. Smoothie bowls, breakfast all day, and lunch sandwiches! Got a latte too and it was very very good. You can definitely tell most of the people I saw there were regulars and it made it feel really homey getting work done here. Got the burrito also, it was huge and very good! Do wish they had some lounge chairs and stuff so I could read for hours here hehe but it was awesome!

Cute little coffee shop with a good display of bakery goods along with a nice omelet and cappuccinos. The staff were extremely polite and helpful. Very pleasant place with unique artwork for sale on the wall. Very enjoyable

Nice little healthy coffee shop. Very clean, great service and strong coffee! Egg sandwich was excellent, served hot and quickly.

I'm very disappointed. I ordered a breakfast burrito and coffee through the square app today. I was charged $16. I went to the shop to find out it has been shut down and is opening in a new location later this month; but in the meantime I was charge $16 for an order I never received due to your business being shut down but your online ordering portal still processing. The phone number is not a working number any longer. Please make this right Neighborhoor Joe!

I give this place 5 stars! I loved of all their vegan friendly options and their menu was HUGE! The food was so tasty and it was ready pretty fast. The staff was so nice and the atmosphere was calm. The only downside was that it was expensive, but good quality food is pricey. Even my non vegetarian friend liked this place! I would totally come back here!

Years later and my opinion has only gotten better. This is our favorite breakfast spot and it feels like our second home at this point. Tom and staff are always so incredibly warm and friendly. Quality is always there and every sandwich and side is made with love. Try the baked goods they are scrumptious!!!!!!!!!!

My uncle and I use to frequent this spot regularly. Couple times a week. Unfortunately they are STILL CLOSED DUE TO COVID. You cannot sit inside and worse you can't even use their restrooms. My handicap uncle needed to use the bathroom (which needs to be done immediately when it's time) and they wouldn't allow him Inside even after I begged them. They told me to go next door to the business I was not buying from! Wtf? Which by the way, the bathroom was closed. So embarrassing dragging my Handicap uncle around begging places to let him use the bathroom. I will never return. So humiliating.

A healthy breakfast can be hard to find and if youre hunting for plant based options then it can be a challenge but NJ has you covered. NJ is my new fav low key breakfast and lunch spot in St Pete both because of the delicious healthy food and the bright happy spot to dine in. This place has all your breakfast bases covered- good coffee (with soy or almond milk options!), a killer food menu, smoothies AND even acai bowls! Whether your into Organic eggs or scrambled tofu they have something for you. Scrambled tofu has been done wrong (thinking Cafe Hey) but it has been done very right and NJ could teach some other places about cooking it right. If youre trying to be more plant based, check out how they do the scrambled tofu. The layout is really nice because the dining room has a lot of space between tables and there are several windows that provide that good wake you up sunshine. There are a couple of outdoor tables too. You'll be looking at the street though. I would like to see a few more local artwork or photos pf St Pete displayed instead of the kindergarten type stuff to really tie the space together, but that's my eyes talking, my tastebuds have no complaints!

Delicious food. Nice little spot for those tired of chains like Starbucks. I recommend 10/10 and will be back for coffee!

Fabulous place to work and have a great vegan or vegetarian bite to eat. The coffee is delish too! A great neighborhood place.

New fav breakfast spot! All pictured was vegan, fresh, and delicious! Blueberry pancakes only available on weekends but were great.

Perfect little gem in St Pete. Decent menu with breakfast and lunch dishes. Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Free WiFi and a welcoming environment to relax in. A few outdoor seats, high stool seating, regular dining tables, and a sofa. Staff is always friendly and happy to answer questions about the menu. The best part is that it's local, reasonable priced, and SO tasty.

Great vegan/gluten free option, even if you aren't either. I got the waffles, they were phenomenal. They also have frittatas and all kinds of treats. Most are vegan/gluten free.

Waited 40 minutes for our food as we watched orders delivered to tables that came in long after we had ordered. Inquired and they said they "lost the ticket" and that they'd make it right away. What they didn't say saw that they were sorry. It was only 10 minutes later that they came and offered us a free coffee. I'm still waiting as I write this.

Came here for breakfast and got the tempeh breakfast . The staff is friendly, the atmosphere is quaint and comfortable. The food was amazing. It is really healthy and really tasty fresh made breakfast that I had. I would highly recommend you check this place out especially if you like vegan/vegetarian/healthy food options. Oh, the coffee was also fantastic.

We love neighborhood joe! Food is fresh and delicious with lots of vegan and gf options. Their coffee and smoothies are good too. Nice quiet place to work during the week.

Beautiful quiet atmosphere and had the best dirty chai latte I've ever had!! Was a wonderful breakfast before a job interview. Took a vegan carrot cake cookie to go and ate it later that day as a treat. Can't wait to go back

I LIVE THIS PLACE! The staff is super friendly and the food is absolutely delicious. Vegan and normal options so everyone can join.

searched for a coffee place while on a short visit and struck gold! Great coffee, friendly service and awesome breakfast sandwiches! Highly Recommend ! Gluten Free and VG options too!!!

Friendly and welcoming. Cappuccino was very good. Great presentation. Wish the servings were bigger. Donuts were unbelievably delicious, filling, yet light. I had the coffee cake and it was a wonderful cinnamon delight. My daughter had the Oreo. Sinfully good Donuts are $4.25 ea, so a little pricey. They are gluten free, which does not matter to me and again surprisingly delicious. Parking was easy and convenient in back, with back door access. Tables are pretty wood and metal. Outside seating available, too. Only draw back is limited hours. This would be a great after dinner dessert place. Hoping they expand their hours soon.

One-sentence summary: Neighborhood Joe is your coffee-kombucha-vegan-donut hookup.

Neighborhood joe has really great vibes the customer service is awesome. coffee is also great, also have flavor lattes, and the vegan sandwiches are delicious. Neighborhood joe never disappoints. My go to breakfast spot in the st pete area for awesome vegan eats.

The service still great, coffee still decent. but the gluten free stuff missed the mark. Very chewy, too much xanthan gum?

Fantastic vegan and vegetarian cafe with an unbelievable selection of great brunch, lunch and dessert/cake options. So many gluten free options as well and all homemade. If you looking for a friendly and delicious cafe you can't go past this.

Such a cool place that I just found! Very friendly service! Great breakfast and lunch items along with smoothies. Vegan and vegetarian options. Love the BLT!

A nice little coffee shop with some vegan options! It's a bit pricey but the food is good and the drinks are tasty! Dog friendly as they have outside tables and in a nice neighborhood!
