Blackbird Comics & Coffeehouse

I've passed by this place for several years now, not knowing what was there. Shops have come and gone, and then one day this place caught my eye. It wasn't for another couple of years until I managed to stop by and actually visit. And I'm glad I did.Blackbird Comics and Coffee is a pretty unique spot for the comics and coffee fans alike. They have a pretty good selection of recent issues and variants, as well as a good assortment of back issues. They have a nice coffee house ambiance as well with a variety of coffee drinks and eats. I perused through some of the books and TPBs along the one side of the store, and went through some of their collection of action figures, then stopped by the counter to order a frappe. I ordered the Moonstruck: a frappe with chocolate, vanilla and graham with a "crescent" moon pie on top. So good!Check out my pics and stop by to have a unique experience. They have book clubs here and table top games to play (in fact, a group next to me is playing right now as I write this review!)They're your tastebuds. Satisfy them!-Allan Delacruz

I always thought it would be cool to have a comic book store/coffeehouse. Come to find out, Orlando has one! It's in Maitland, but not too far of a drive. I went with a friend on a Saturday. There's a small parking lot, and it was full except for one space...waiting just for me, apparently. The shop was crowded. There was a lot of indoor seating and a few tables outside as well. It was super hot out, so indoors was definitely preferable. All of the tables were taken, though. It was a packed house. We ordered our drinks, hoping a table would open up. I ordered a latte. I can't remember the name of it (maybe the Alpha Flight?), but it was a raspberry-flavored one. When it came out, it had a beautiful presentation and was super delicious. I think it's one of the best-tasting coffee drinks I've had in a long, long time. I love that their drinks have names that are comic- or music-based, but secretly (or not-so-secretly) wish the all had comic names because that's what I do if I had a comic book store/coffeehouse. The décor inside is amazing. They did a great job providing a welcoming, homey environment. A table finally opened up inside and we grabbed it to enjoy our drinks and chat. I did browse the comic book side of the shop, as well as the game/toy side. They have a good supply of both, including vinyl records. My one disappointment with our visit was the food selection. We were going to have a pastry or dessert or something to go along with our afternoon coffee, and the case was pretty bare. I think there was one item left, and it didn't look very appetizing. I know it's the afternoon and they probably sold out of everything, but make/offer more. I'd love to see a variety of homemade muffins, breads, brownies, cookies, etc. We definitely would have purchased a couple of items.

Great vibes, inventory and customer service. Fun place to visit or chill for a while and read.

An amazing comic store and cafe. Most highly recommended. Service is friendly. Snacks are homemade.

Very cool place to sit in comfy chairs and enjoy coffee, or browse the amazing selection of comics, shirts and books!! Much bigger inside than it appears! I ordered the Bad Bambi with Oat milk! Friendly staff who walked my drink out to me!!

I've been obsessed with this place ever since I found out about it! I'm not super into comic books or vinyl, but I absolutely love board games, and this spot has the perfect mix.The vibes here are amazing. I love bringing my laptop and getting work done while watching other people read or play board games. It makes working less boring.Their drink menu is incredible! They have so many fun coffee, tea, and sparkling drinks--there's something for every taste. Plus, the drink names perfectly match the themed vibe of the shop.The food menu may be small, but it's super tasty! I've had the ham and cheese croissant and the cinnamon sugar croissant, and both were delicious. I can't wait to be back again! This is hands down my favorite coffee shop in the area--so fun and unique!

I had no idea this place existed so close to me! This is the perfect weekend spot to chill with friends or browse with a date. Make sure to grab a coffee (or a breakfast sandwich) because they have some great options! I've even brought my laptop to work from here for a few hours -- I will say it got loud when several board game groups came in, but that's to be expected when you can rent out games while in-house or take them home for a few days! It's like blockbuster for board games! Love this chill lil spot!

I finally made it and so glad I did! I have heard great things about their coffee and all are true. I ordered an oatmilk latte and it tasted so smooth! It wasn't bitter, burnt or acidic, which it was a very pleasant surprise. The coffee shop is inside the comic store and there is some inside and outside seating. They have pastries and other goodies if you want to have a bite.I will definitely stop by to get my caffeine fix, when I am around the area!

This is become my new favorite spot. I love how it's more than just a coffee shop and there's so much to browse at when we visit. My kids love to check out the books and usually we let them pick out a graphic novel and my husband and I sometimes pick out a new board game to take home. I appreciate the creative drinks that they come up with and always look forward to trying them. The haunted mansion bathroom is a highlight :)

Loved the vibe. Excellent vinyl selection and of course comics galore!!! Enjoyed their creams and fragrances too which I wasn't expecting them to have. That was a pleasant surprise. Their coffee was really good too!
