If you're driving on north Dale Mabry in Tampa... and you see the Carrollwood Village neighborhood entrance- 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. read more

Even though it was super busy when I went in, the wait wasn't long at all. The coffee was good and the service was even better! I can't get over how cute it was in here and I'm bummed that the gift shop side was closed when I went in. read more

The Perfect Press Coffee - Iced latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I stumbled upon this coffee shop by chance and decided to give it a try. Boy, am I glad I did! As soon 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! read more

This is just a quick updated review with some pictures. I still love this coffee shop. It is almost always crowded. There are small pockets of time throughout the day where it will be quiet, but this is a popular local café for sure! And with good reason! Don't sleep on this! read more

I saw a post about The Perfect Press Coffee on Instagram. Since I was in downtown on Saturday afternoon, I decided to visit. I was able to find parking near the cafe. When I entered the cafe, I loved the ambiance and decorations inside the cafe. I observed people enjoying the coffee inside the cafe. After browsing the menu, I ordered a Seasonal coffee, specifically the Pumpkin Spice Latte. My drink arrived 10 minutes later. The coffee was perfectly spiced, exactly what I was looking for. The seasonal drink was delicious and the ambiance was lovely too. I loved everything about it. read more

This is such a cute coffee spot in the middle of Carrollwood Village. The people working here are always so kind and the drinks are amazing while also being consistent every time I visit. I do enjoy their lattes, but their London fog is actually my favorite. If you're a Macha lover, definitely try their iced Matcha drinks, as they are also very tasty. It can get packed during certain times, but please don't let that discourage you (or the lack of parking) from trying this place . Oh, and they always give you a Biscoff cookie with your drink which is such a cute add-on read more

I wish this coffee shop lived up to its name. It was everything but. The good? The ambiance. Interior design is beautiful and bathroom as well. It definitely feels cozy. Not too big and not too small. The employees were kind. Lots of cute mugs and kitchen items for sale. The bad? The coffee! Unfortunately. We ordered 3 different coffee drinks. They all tasted like warm milk with a hint of coffee. Maybe the locals enjoy warm milk? When you're from Miami and you've had Cuban coffee and you grew up on Turkish and Arabic coffee, you're used to strong coffee. Straight black, or with some milk but not milk with some coffee. Even after the barista added more coffee for me, it still tasted so light. Also, there wasn't a place to fix your coffee. J felt like I was in everyone's way while adding sugar. We had our coffees to go and there weren't any tables available. read more

If you're looking for an aesthetically pleasing coffee shop in Tampa with delicious matcha - The Perfect Press Coffee is your place. I found this spot thanks to Tiktok and my craving for a pick me up was much needed. This shop is located in the Carrollwood area in a plaza and when you walk inside it's like a coffee shop mixed with William Sonoma vibes. It has so many cute cooking accessories and gifts for your favorite chef or just yourself. The employee who took my order was super friendly and we had great banter. I came in for the coconut cloud matcha, however it was a seasonal flavor. But the fall seasonal drinks were listed and of course I had to try their pumpkin cream matcha. This was an iced matcha latte with pumpkin syrup, pumpkin cold foam, and milk of your choice - which I went with almond milk. My eye also flirted with their dessert case and I went with a Dubai chocolate cookie, which was recommended as well. While I waited, I browsed around and found myself already planning my next trip to pick up some truffle oil and jams. Since it was packed inside, I decided to enjoy my latte to go. I never would have thought that matcha and pumpkin spice or anything pumpkin would work, but wow. This was my first sip of fall and I highly enjoyed it. It tasted like a pumpkin/sweet potato pie in a drink. It was not overly sweet - it was the perfect amount of sweetness. They use ceremonial matcha, which is great quality, and you can definitely taste it. The matcha wasn't chalky or clumpy at all. I have to thank Tiktok for this amazing recommendation. read more

I'm so glad I discovered this charming little coffee shop after seeing a few cute videos on Instagram. it definitely lived up to the hype. Since strong coffee tends to make me sleepy instead of energized, I went for the matcha coconut with coconut cream , coconut water ,and my choice of milk. On another visit, I tried the matcha with strawberry--both were delicious, and I love that their fruit syrups are made in-house with real ingredients. The café is on the smaller side, with a quiet, cozy vibe. Half the space is dedicated to the kitchen and a small retail section. It's very aesthetically pleasing, though I do think it could benefit from a bit more seating. Even with its more minimal, grab-and-go feel, I'll definitely keep coming back to try more from the menu. read more

Great little coffee shop in the carrollwood area! Connected to a kitchenware boutique styled store that is nice to roam and check out all the cool items they have while waiting for your order to be ready. We went on a Saturday morning so it was pretty busy, but the wait wasn't too long for how busy it was. The fall decor was really cute and photo-worthy. We decided on seasonal drinks, because who doesn't love some good pumpkin flavored drinks in autumn? I had the iced pumpkin cream matcha - it was excellent, I definitely recommend giving it a try. We'll be back to try more things - it was a great first visit! read more

Finally found the best matcha in Tampa! I just wish it were a little closer to South Tampa but it's definitely worth the drive. The inside is super cute, they even sell houseware appliances, and it's a great spot to work from too. Of course, the matcha is amazing! I got the strawberry iced matcha with almond milk and it did not disappoint. read more

Absolutely beautiful place. Love the store and all the personalized Tampa things and holiday trinkets. It's perfect for that gift you can't figure out what to get. The coffee was yummy. We got a cold green tea and a hot praline coffee... Ok now for my review: Outside there were people chatting and hanging out. We came on a Friday morning after school drop off. The vibe was very odd to say the least. We walked in there were a few people inside at the tables and a person in front of us waiting to order. I asked him if he had ordered to which he was like ya... so then I looked the lady and she said, 'I'll be with you in a bit'. I didn't feel like a welcome morning feeling... when she was finally ready to take my order she didn't greet me neither did the other person. They asked me what I wanted to order and I said what do you recommend- she pointed to the specials and said there are the specials. Felt like I was taking to a robot with no personality which totally threw off the moment and my anticipation. My good was good and I sat down at the table and it just felt very sterile and too quiet even though there were people inside. So, I'd totally get a coffee from here and then leave. Just a stop go check if I needed anything from the shop but I didn't feel welcomed at all at any point and that sucks because it's so pretty inside. read more

This place is so photogenic and the ladies of the staff are super sweet, even with the chaos of having a long line. But the place is so small it's annoying that people are there working or studying. This isn't Starbucks where there is enough space to do that. Maybe if they don't have the little shopping area for the store they share the space with but still it's tight. I went to meet with a friend and had to stand with the door open because the line was that long. A woman stood next to me just looking at me. I responded saying I was in line and her reply was "good for you I'm just trying to get napkins " sorry miss but I'm not a mind reader! How was I suppose to know? The croissant was delicious and the coffee was ok, but don't think I'll be coming again because it's so congested. I'll go to the shop next door. Not as congested and they have some cute things. read more

Have you heard of The Perfect Press Coffee Co. yet? They are in their soft opening now, and the Grand Opening will be this Saturday, January 11, 2025. Excited that this is my first review of the new year. What better than a brand new coffee shop with instant warm cozy vibes, great coffee, in a stylish eye catching atmosphere. I'm thinking of my fave hallmark movies, settings and dreamy sidewalk cafes all in one right here in Carrollwood Village. It is tucked in off the beaten path a bit since it's residential, & not off busy Dale Mabry! After settling in with all my sensory overload, I ordered a hot pistachio praline latte and a Gruyère ham and chive scone. Quite wonderful and perfect for a chilly Sunday morning, along with the company of two sweet friends chatting away. They both have been here because of the business next door Picture Perfect Kitchen and Home(which now is conveniently connected). They have just newly expanded to have this coffee shop and with all of their beautiful design elements it is truly a gem. It was also a joy meeting the owner of both businesses, & well as receiving a great welcome from everyone who worked here. Next time, I would love to try their horchata latte and any seasonal flavors that arise. read more

I had been following The Perfect Press on Instagram for awhile now. We were finally in the area on a Sunday morning so we popped in. We had an amazing breakfast!! We tried the horchata latte and the pistachio praline latte--both were flavorful and smooth. We also ordered the gruyere chive scone, croffle with prosciutto and pesto, and a guava cheese danish. Everything was delicious. The croissant waffle was pressed perfectly and had so much flavor due to the pesto. The scone was a perfect crumbly consistency--not dry. The guava cheese danish wasn't too sweet. I would order everything again. Zero complaints. It was busy but I know why! Looking forward to coming back! read more

Instagram girlies, you have to check this place out! The entrance is so cute, decorated for the season and occasion. I happened to stop by during the Valentine's Day season. They have a cute promotion going on where you can pre-order a drink carrier with flowers for Valentine's Day. The drink specials are pretty creative and enticing. The coffee I got (pistachio praline) was delicious and comes with a biscoff cookie. I got a lavender cookie as well, which is very lavendery (perfect for a fanatic). Very cute home decor shop attached to the coffee shop and the baristas were super sweet. 4 stars simply because I didn't get to try their food so I don't know how to rate that but overall my experience was great. Also, easy and free parking! read more

Stopped in here this morning as I was going to NY Bagel a few stores down. Today was the official grand opening and the first 25 people through the door got a free coffee. Lucky me! This place is really nice as other reviewers have mentioned. Staff was friendly as well. With all the options and variations of the beverages, they only offer sugar and Truvia for sweeteners. So I had to take my coffee home and not drink it at the store The coffee was really good. No doubt a quality product. To the Managment: please add either Splenda or Sweet n Low to your sweetener options. read more

We have been waiting for a new coffee shop in our little area and this is the most perfect addition. It is so adorable on the inside. It makes you feel like you are truly in the cutest city tucked, right in the heart of Carrollwood Village. The coffees are so amazing and they have great seasonal and specialty flavors, especially Since it was just the holidays. Every baked good is to DIE FOR! Lots of seating to hang out and great vibes just to chill and sit on your laptop. The staff is also super friendly. The only thing I would say could use improvement is adding a non-fat milk or a 2% option instead of just whole milk or non-dairy, but not too big of a deal. This will be my new go to! read more

The coffee is consistently good, the service is spectacular, and the shop has a warm, welcoming vibe. They also have cute, thoughtfully curated items for sale inside. It's a great spot to enjoy a coffee while people-watching, with plenty of outdoor seating available. Locals clearly love this place--and for good reason. My personal favorites are the horchata and pistachio praline specialty coffees. They also host frequent events, so be sure to check out their social media to see what's coming up. read more

I asked the barista why the most popular drink was and she said the Pistachio Praline. I can see why it was the most popular. The latte was well balanced and tasty. I was also accompanied by a warm cinnamon muffin which was delicious. I loved the interior which was very clean and organized. I'd definitely come back if I was in town again. It's a very inviting space with decent seating and parking outside. read more

This has literally been my favorite coffee shop in the Tampa Bay Area. The perfect Press coffee shop is in the Carrollwood neighborhood and it was phenomenal. They make all of their syrups in house and today I got a pumpkin spice Matcha and the croffin with mozzarella, basil, and prosciutto. They were both excellent. The staff in here are all great, and the lady who works in the Picture Perfect gift shop was super welcoming and shared more about their classes and the gift shop. All the seats have outlets that you can plug your laptop into and they have seating that's inside and outside of the coffee shop. Their seasonal menus are amazing and the holiday menu will come out on November 1. Food was great... Drinks were great... And the overall atmosphere was stellar! I cannot wait to go back when I have more time to the gift shop and explore some gifts for my friends and family. I cannot say more amazing things about this place.

New fun little coffee shop and store in Carrollwood Village! They have a variety of coffee options and signature drinks. Today we had the cold brew with pink vanilla cold foam on their valentines day menu and a pistachio latte. Both coffees were great! They do have a rotating seasonal menu. A few tables in there for seating, but a bit more limited. They also have a home/kitchen goods store attached, selling all types of goods for your kitchen. They do feature some local brands as well which is super cool! Excited to come back!! read more

I came in before their grand opening and didn't even know how new it was! The service was amazing and they were really helpful finding my friend her drink choice. It's usually busy so finding a seat is hard, but the days i do it's always a nice atmosphere to study or work in. My go-to drink at the moment is the mocha pistachio latte i recommend it to anyone who loves sweets or wanted a take on the Dubai chocolate trend. Anytime i let someone try a sip they want to steal it!! They also have a store where they sell artisans, kitchenware, & dinnerware. read more

This was a random Yelp search for coffee en route from an appointment. They were tucked in a plaza where all the signage looked the same so I almost passed it. The coffee shop is so cute. I wish I had time to sit and stay (next time) I ordered the horchata latte and I've to say that I was very impressed with it. The espresso was very smooth, the latte itself had a nice flavor and wasn't too sweet that you lose the taste of the coffee and it's just all sugar. I also got a ham and cheese scone. That was really, really good! Definitely, get that if you come by, and have it warmed up. You won't be disappointed! They also were pretty quick to make my drink too btw, although, it wasn't too busy when I got there. read more
