Watch out Seattle (wink SEAtoday), Tampa might just be the next up-and-coming coffee mecca. We ranked No. 6 on WalletHub’s 2022 Best Coffee Cities in America. ☕

Still looking for your perfect local cup of joe, or want to go on a celebration tour? Here’s a few of the best spots to check out (with our recommendations of course):

  • Buddy Brew seems to be ubiquitous in Tampa Bay — with seven storefronts/locations + a coffee slinging truck and a TIA stand. And for good reason, all loyal Buddy Brew hounds know the iced lattes + pour overs are incredible.
  • King State Coffee is one of the comfiest hangouts in Tampa, located at 520 E. Floribraska Ave., with its windowed garage door exterior + bar, plus the coffee is roasted each week for max freshness.
  • Drive-thru coffee gets an upgrade with Kahwa Coffee Roasters‘s drip coffee, iced chais, and ham + cheese croissants. Plus, its storefronts sell cold brew growlers so you never have to buy grocery store cold brew again.
