The…read morequality of the coffee really stands out--everything tastes fresh, well-balanced, and clearly made with care. I ordered the egg and sausage croissant, and it was excellent. The croissant was warm and flaky, and the filling was flavorful without being too heavy--perfect for a quick breakfast or brunch. One of my favorite things they offer is the coffee flights. They're not only a fun way to try different drinks, but they're also presented really nicely, which makes the whole experience feel a bit more special. Overall, great coffee, solid food options, and a welcoming atmosphere. Definitely a place I'll keep coming back to.

I came here for the first time today and was welcomed by Elyse (I hope I spelled her name right)…read moreshe was the sweetest person and you can tell she truly loves working here and values the coffee and experience she gives everyone. She was patient, knowledgeable and helped me get a drink that was close to what I make at home which has been rare at any coffee shop. I loved my coffee but loved my experience even more. She truly made a customer out of me and I will be back to support this place again and will share with my friends and family. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu and enjoy a few work hours here. Truly such a cute place! Clean and welcoming! Thank you for the experience Elyse! You are appreciated and I hope the owners know that you value their establishment and they are lucky to have someone like you on their team!

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. We ordered to go, but it's a super cute place to hang and get work done. We both enjoyed every sip of our Lattes & the cookie was amazing. I'm so glad I found Lunar Coffee!

We had a decaf mocha and seasonal matcha. The drinks were very mediocre unfortunately. Earth day matcha was cold (which I didn't know) and thy were able to make it hot after I received it. Even then it was way too sweet and I could only have a few sips. Mocha decaf didn't have a nice quality to it, didn't seem like they use good decaf beans. So everything except the drinks was great.

The staff... both the guy with the tablet who took my order while I was in the drive-thru line-and the gal at the window-were so warm, friendly, chill and helpful. I'd go back just to bask in their positivity! But kindness isn't the only thing on the menu. There's coffee, tea, plant-based energy drinks, Italian sodas... and dozens (I think 75) of flavors you can add to them. In a fist visit, I usually start with chai tea latte... but today I asked for suggestions and ended up with a hot hibiscus tea with added pear flavoring. It was so floral and different! Hello new year! This knocked "the usual" on its head. I'm not sure that it will end up being my favorite offering here, but yeah... here's to shaking things up! I also tried the rainbow bagel-which was pretty and tasty. I liked the chew. Next time I'll try the strawberry cream cheese with it. There are filled croissants, too... but I forgot to ask about the flavors-and you can get mini donuts, too. White Duck was founded by a couple of Seattle transplants, who wanted to bring the "two windows in a shed" model of Pacific Northwest coffee shops to the Bay Area. And that's exactly what this is-a drive thru-no indoor seating-and I didn't see any outdoor tables, either. This is grab and go. But there's parking behind the building, if you want to sit and savor a bit. The shop is way up on North Dale Mabry-near Van Dyke-on the east side, right next to a Wendy's. It wasn't busy when I first got there but there at 8:30 on a Wednesday morning, but it soon picked up. I can see why... it's so convenient and the staff is so nice. They really stand out. I can't wait to stop in again and try more! I read on the website that the owners lost a child to cancer and part of the proceeds from each purchase goes to research. Well now I just have to try all those 75 flavors! See you soon, White Duck!

Thank you for making my day. The bagel and donuts were very delicious also.

Maya and her Mom provided great service. Maya answered some questions and made great recommendations. Once we decided what we wanted, Maya took our orders.

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.

Great amount of roasted pork and fresh ham. One of the best I've ever had and definitely the best in the USF/north Tampa area! 9/10 Open Sundays but closed M/Tues No complaints!

Tables weren't being cleaned. Was told a 15-20 minute wait for a table...was more like 40 minutes. Got coffee while we waited. Again, took like 15 minutes, but was very good. When ordering, was told they had no pork, which goes on their Cuban Sandwich, the "award winning" sandwich they are known for. Not sure how this happens when it's your "thing". Took over an hour to get food. The side salad was not good. It had lettuce, a few shaved carrots, and that it. The burger and chicken cordon bleu sandwich were good.

I found this place because I couldn't find buddy brew coffee, not from here just getting treatment…read moreat Moffitt so trying the local coffee shops around here. The parking is very funky, water to walk to. If homey is what you are looking for for this is the place. I prefer outside cafes and enjoying the sunshine. The inside of this home is pretty cramped, nowhere to stand while waiting for drinks. If one of the employees actually told me I could wait outside and they have a window they can call your name and give you your order that way, that would have been stellar customer service. Also know that if you would like a nice ceramic mug like I do, they won't ask you for here or to go, they will just give you a paper cup. I asked if they ever make drinks in mugs and the kind gentleman said yes if you are staying inside. He didn't ask so I didn't know. Miscommunication problem here on the business side. But whatever. The outside could be more pleasant and comfortable and almost return business from me if they actually had their employees CLEAN THE OUTSIDE TABLES AND CHAIRS! It wasn't enjoyable to hunker down with a table full of bird shit, ( I love nature and ima free hugger) I tolerated it to try to enjoy the I e vanilla latte. I asked if they use real extracts or puréed pumpkin as most establishments just use simple sugar syrups and I was hoping g that because they weren't big corporate chain they would strive for less processed especially because of the price of their drinks. There seemed to be a lot of downtime after a rush so there's really no excuse for not cleaning up crumbs or bird shit off the surfaces where their customers are supposed to eat and drink. For me to return here, I would really love to see clean outside, one more shade screen they don't cost much, and more hanging plants and flowers on tables or plants in general would make this space beautiful, add some bamboo for privacy and voila I might show up again. For now, I'll stick to businesses that stem e not only for friendly customer service but a clean environment as well. Bummer wanted to support local. Quemaria coffee does it right!!!! Boho but clean and nice global music playing, that would be nice here as some peoples conversations are loud. Something to drown out the traffic as well. They could add a few more tables just purchased from thrift store. I wanted to LOVE but this place is probably best for students that don't have higher expectations.

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 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!

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.

And the staff? Literally the sweetest people ever. They're fast, friendly, and make you feel like a regular even if it's your first visit. This isn't just a coffee shop, it's a whole experience. Whether you're stopping in for a quick drink or staying to hang out, it's 100% worth it. I'll definitely be coming back again and again

The muffins, the bagels... I can't even remember everything I've tried, but I remember it all being delicious. That's the important part. The space has this inviting brick-and-wood vibe that gives it a little "up north" feel. Comfortable seating, pleasant atmosphere, the kind of place you can sit with your thoughts or escape the house for a bit. They've also got juices and boba teas, and honestly, I haven't had a single thing from their menu that missed.
