I stumbled upon this coffee shop by chance and decided to give it a try. Boy, am I glad I did! As…read moresoon as I walked in, I noticed the lovely and tasteful decor. The coffee shop is actually connected to some kitchen store and there is a nice little gift shop to browse while you wait on your beverage being prepared. The line to order was to the door, but the staff took orders quickly and efficiently. I'm a huge fan of drip coffee and always judge a coffee shop by how they prepare this simple, yet flavorful beverage. The Perfect Press Coffee lives up to its name- their drip coffee is smooth, bold, and flavorful. I love it!

If you're driving on north Dale Mabry in Tampa... and you see the Carrollwood Village neighborhood…read moreentrance- make a safe uturn and head in. Inside this winding housing development, you'll find a small shopping plaza-gasoline on one end, dry cleaners on the other... and in between those bookends, a string of small businesses. And behind the door with all the flowers around it: Perfect Press Coffee. It's a hopping and popping kind of place. I've been there twice in the last year-and it's busy. It's a fun mix of neighborhood moms with strollers-people stopping on the way to or from work-and a few remote work workers-who thrive in the happy buzz of a booming business. To the right when you walk in: coffee, tea and sweet and/or savory small bites. There's bench seating along the wall, several small tables and two little couches in the middle. The decor is cute, cozy, modern and slightly caffeinated. It's not a huge place but it's super popular. There are tables out front on the sidewalk, too. It's busy, but the skilled baristas keep things moving. On this most recent trip, I tried the ube matcha-my first. I liked it! There were lots of tempting pastries, etc-but I had a lunch date coming up, so I stuck to just the beverage. If you decide to stop in, bonus: this business shares space with a fun kitchen store that has everything from gourmet salts and oils-fun towels and mugs-and all sorts of other items. I should have bought the cola flavored candy bar. Next time! Yes, the parking lot is a little hectic-but be patient, it comes and goes in waves-you'll get a spot. Oh! And really nice restrooms. This is worth a stop and shop. I'll be back for round three.

If you're in Tampa, you MUST go here…read more Food: the food is quick and fresh. My go-to is the Asian noodles, spicy or pumpkin soup; iced mango matcha; and a matcha cupcake. Bury me in those cupcakes - my heavens. Literally cannot get enough of them!!! And the tea cookies! Just lovely. Their lemongrass tofu - I could eat it every day!!! Service: the staff here is really wonderful! Everyone is friendly and kind and so knowledgeable about all the teas! Ambiance: it's an intimate space with indoor and outdoor seating. They have a giant wall of loose leaf tea so def grab a bag to go before leaving. You won't regret coming here, I pinky promise! Love it so much!

Corona Coffee Shop is a small, casual spot that feels like a straightforward neighborhood cafe…read more It's the kind of place people drop by for a quick coffee, light snack, or a simple break during the day. The atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious, making it easy to settle in for a short visit. The overall experience is generally decent, with service that tends to be quick and a setup that prioritizes function over style. It works well for regulars or anyone looking for an uncomplicated coffee stop rather than a specialty cafe experience.

First i want to start off by saying I'm not sure who the owners were back in the day when some of…read morethe older reviews were written but I decided to try the place for myself anyway and I'm so glad I did! The owners now are incredibly pleasant and welcoming. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth and good energy The Dominican food is absolutely amazing full of flavor and made with so much love. Everything tastes fresh and authentic like a true home-cooked meal. And the coffee... wow It's honestly some of the best coffee I've had rich, smooth, and made perfectly The people running the place now really care about their customers and it shows in the food the service and the atmosphere. I highly recommend giving this spot a try and experiencing it for yourself!

They have a really great selection of drinks but that one just hits the spot every time. The drinks were ready after a few minutes and they tasted just like I wanted. Perfect cinnamon flavor and I like the touch of cinnamon on top my husband prefers without but I think it's nice.

The Ambience was incredible and in the top five percent for a Coffee Shop. The music was on a premium speaker system and consisted of relaxing tunes. Don't know if we will ever be in the area again to go back but they definitely earned our praise.

The coffee was amazing really smooth and well made. We also tried the chocolate strawberry croissant (so good!!) and an avocado egg toast that was fresh, flavorful, and filling. What really stood out was the service. Everyone was incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. I got to chat with the owner a bit and she is super sweet. Overall, such a gem in Tampa. Perfect spot for a cute coffee date, catching up with friends, or just treating yourself.

I loved how many unique matcha options they offer, along with a nice selection of sandwiches and small bites. I ordered the Toasted Banana Pudding Matcha and the Mama Rose Matcha. Both were really good, but I'm obsessed with the Toasted Banana Pudding Matcha. I'll definitely be coming back just for that. For food, I got the sourdough avocado toast (minus the tomato), and it was delicious. Everything felt fresh and well made. Overall, such a great spot. I'll absolutely be back!

Finally! A cozy cafe with an ambience like no other place in Tampa! I was so excited to try out…read moretheir coffee. They have unique flavors and blends that are absolutely delicious. The cafe itself was easy to find. Parking lot is large and easy to find. As soon as I walked in, you can sense a feeling of calmness and peace. They played classical piano instrumentals and it honestly gave me the best experience. This says a lot about a place because it's not just good coffee it's also having a quiet clean cafe that's good on the eye. And the music ?- YES ! Now the coffee. I can simply say after traveling all over the world and being incredibly picky with my coffee, Lunar coffee is 10/10 and rated the BEST in Tampa. My go to spot now.

We were greeted within seconds of entering. The service was good. I ordered a Pandan Latte, hot. My daughter ordered an Iced Ube Matcha Latte and a in house made brown butter Miso cookie, warmed.

There are a ton of baked goods that smell SO good, I unfortunately did not order food, but next time I sure will! The service here is awesome, Cameron is a sweetheart and really funny and fun to talk to. If you need suggestions Cameron is more than willing to help there. For my coffee I got the specialty spring break in Tokyo, iced which was a nice light refreshing drink that I thoroughly enjoyed but the menu has a lot of options which makes it really hard to pick. The boutique items while few are super cute, from clothes to cat clips, pins, stickers and jewelry, definitely a lot of fun to dig through. For seating they have a good amount of seating, but the place does get filled up quick. There is also very little parking right infront but there is overflow parking in the lot next door. Too bad this cute little gem is so far away from me, if it were closer, this would definitely be a go to spot for me!

You'd never guess busy Fowler Avenue and all those shiny new businesses are just steps away. This is free-spirited, relaxing and zen. You can study here, chill-out and reset. It's colorful and very sunny, but it would also be the snuggliest place to sit while it's raining and just sip away and read. There are so many drink and food options here. I had the pistachio matcha with strawberry cold foam and a spinach/feta pastry. Both were good choices. You can order at the register or from a QR code and they'll call you to come get it. It's so casual and laid back. This adorable hangout would melt away any work frazzles I could possible walk in with. I love the low ceilings and the vintage hardwood floors and the slouchy couch and the eastern light streaming in the front window of this older, repurposed home. There's original artwork everywhere, including the ceiling (some of it's for sale). There's also a rack of clothing items, jewelry, scrunchies and other items for sale. I love the eclectic vibe-and the guitar propped up by the front window. Phoebe could definitely sing "Smelly Cat" here. Heck, they're so welcoming here, Ross could probably set up his keyboard and share "the sound." They DO have live music here-and a side patio. There's some parking up front and extra parking in back. And the service is friendly. I'm so glad I found this spot. I'll be back to try the apple fritter croissant and soak up more relaxation. Happy days from Felicitous!

The food came out quickly. We were served a generous portion of food. It was delicious. In the end, I didn't feel overstuffed or bloated after eating most of my food.
