I love the interior . Staff is friendly. I was surprised to see the barista in the green outfit tamping with zero pressure. Which might explain my flavorless 16oz latte.

I love some of their coffee, and truly dislike some of it. i have ordered coffe that tasted horrible, multiple occasions.,i lot of line pomegranate flavor that just to me taste off, personal taste probably, but when you get a good bag of there coffee , especially the old florida roast , it is absolutely great.I originally gave 1 star. Which was based on past 6 months or bit more of coffee taste issues , the last bag i purchased, i startded grinding beans day(s) before use and it taste better. up until recently its been the best coffee i have ever gotten.....Ive been getting their coffee for about 4 years or so ,now. Normally buy 2lb or 5lb bags sometimes the smaller bags.

Cool boutique coffee bar with plenty of light and different seating options while you enjoy very good coffee or espresso. We had a double shot and an americano and both were quite well done. Nice residential area too so not loud or crazy. Parking available on the street if the lot is full.

The Avocado BLT is the best dang avocado sandwich I’ve ever had. Absolutely DELICIOUS!!!!!! I’m hooked. Don’t get me started about the employee who helped me, her name is Graham C, and she remembered my name on my 3rd visit there. Top-notch customer service!!

First time and I had a great time. Staff was very helpful. During my stay I had caramel latte and Avacado BLT with Sriracha aoli instead of mayo. Everything was sooo goood I had a matcha latte with honey to go 😀 I will be back when I'm in the Tampa area.

Amazing coffee and equally amazing staff, especially the barista Alix and the super friendly server Abigail! The best flat white in Tampa and they serve it in proper cups! If you want a cool place to take your friends for a chat and a delicious cup of Joe this is the place and specifically the Kennedy location.

It was an absolute great time. Tampa Bay Periodontics Christmas party was a blast.

Looks like the coffee isn't burned anymore. Still so frucking loud I couldn't think, wimp rock and techno blasting from the speakers. An employee was wearing headphones while she worked at her computer doing school work not unlike many people dining in.

I will never be able to have a Carmel macchiato anywhere else now. The best I have ever had! Cute little joint and great business casual meet up spot. Highly recommend.

Buddy Brew is probably the best place for cappuccino in Tampa. I buy their Double Dog and Columbia decaf beans. Sadly, of late, their espresso shots are not consistent and same high quality they used to be. Please refocus on barista training and get the brew back on taste track. I am an amateur and when my home cappuccino is better than Buddy Brew using the same beans then it is very disappointing
