Acquaint and Family oriented is our neighborhood coffee shop, Denise the owner is wonderful and her staff is awesome. Whenever Im in Tampa I visit them almost dailyThe coffee is superb and they offer a good variety of sandwiches and other food selections. Highly recommended coming from me Lucy a food expert!
WHERE TO PARK: 22nd Street has a dedicated parking lot. There’s also neighborhood parking adjacent to the shop.THE STORY: This family owned coffee shop is an offshoot of Brisk Coffee Roaster, which originated on the corner of 8th and 15th in Ybor City, in 1968 with a 100-pound batch roaster, a small warehouse, one delivery truck and a passion for fine coffees.Today, BRISK is one of the largest independent roasters in the Southeastern United States, with offices in Tampa, Ft. Lauderdale, Miami and Atlanta. Denise Reddick is President and CEO.The coffee shop, which opened about two years ago, is the only one in the Palmetto Beach neighborhood of Tampa, an area filled with deep ties to Cuba and the cigar rollers that called it home for so long.Reddicks family came over from Cuba in the early 1900s. Tampa is home, but she never forgets her roots; coffee is the window to the past.SUGGESTED ORDER: Cafe Con Leche or “Coffee with milk.” The beverage is common throughout Spain and Latin America, consisting of strong coffee (usually espresso), mixed with scalded milk in equal amounts.PRO TIP: Get some Cuban toast and dip it in the Cafe Con Leche
Love the smell of the coffee by the port. Great shop, super cute inside! Great gifts and things to buy. Love the urban vibe. Love the cheese and or buttered cuban bread. Love the cafe con leche! Havent been inside before as my husband usually does the coffee run inside.Super clean and friendly staff.
If your looking for authentic top best coffee, then this is the place to stop by. Their welcoming and accommodating to any specifications you might have.
This is the Cutest coffee shop with the best baristas. I always get a cheese toast with honey on top or the woke Cuban and a colada. Joaquin never misses with an amazing sandwich. Barista Stephanie always welcomes you with a smile and her positive energy makes your morning. Sheila makes the best café con leche and shes so sweet! Great team at an amazing location and that makes every visit worth it🤍 Love this place.
UHH… WOW! Best place I’ve ever eaten at! I got the egg and cheese croissant and honey butter toast and I cannot describe the serendipity it brought me! Everything about it is perfect!
Just came in this morning to try this place out. I had the coño iced coffee and a Cuban. Let me start of by saying the Cuban was on point and the coffee was awesome! The staff is very friendly and very helpful when selecting from the menu! Thank you girls will definitely be coming back.
I got an excellent hot mocha and a bacon egg and cheese sandwich. Im traveling from out of town and I was looking for a good local spot to get breakfast and this did not disappoint!
Great local coffee shop with breakfast. Open space and friendly staff.
Excellent Atmosphere to complement the excellent coffee and food! You can not go wrong here.EDIT: Almost 2 years later, I moved back down to Tampa, visited this Great Coffee shop again and it was still very good. Everything is great, excellent staff.Ally, Stephanie and Marina are always so kind and talkative.You all have grown to have great and plentiful customers. Keep up the good work.Wish each and every one of you the best.
Go out of your way to check out this historical, educational, relaxed chic coffee house. So much history about both Tampa and Coffee and the staff there were the most cheerful and helpful folk Ive ever had the pleasure of meeting. So pleased with my hazelnut latte with a shot of espresso. It quite literally tastes like a coffee milkshake and is divine. The freshly ground coffee is amazing and so well priced for two pounds, for six dollars a bag. Again, stop here no matter what!
Came here yesterday and was pleasantly surprised by the decorum. It was the perfect spot to catch up on some work and the baristas were friendly as well. My only suggestion would be to bring head phones because the music isn’t the most relaxing. Other than that it was a great first experience. I will definitely be back.
Cafe con leche is amazing. Very cool that chips (Dinamitas) are carried.
I stopped in for a quick iced coffee on my way to the airport. It looked like a nice place to spend a longer time. Id go back for sure.
Came here for a quick bite and tea. The atmosphere is great inside and there is plenty of seating without being crowded. I got a cuban sandwich with was good. I like that they have a decent menu of sandwiches at a reasonable price instead of random overpriced snack food like some coffee shops. Will definitely go back when Im in the area.
The first day I went in there I was enchanted by the authentic, for real, feel. Like they werent trying to be an authentic coffee shop, they really are. Then Marina, the barista behind the counter briefly explained the Gilded Coffee that caught my attention. I could tell she not only knew her stuff but was really passionate about it. This was proven when I had tasted the coffee. Then, this next time, I met Ally the manager and also the owner Denise whos the most pleasant person. I treated myself to a strawberry white chocolate chip muffin that was described as fresh off the press. I got to my job and when I looked closely I could see they were not lying, this was fresh indeed. I ate it all and enjoyed every single bite. This place is immensely amazing.
This place is absolutely amazing! I recommend the woke cuban sandwich, its sooo good!!! The owner was very helpful and nice and so were the staff. Very cute ambiance.
Definitely a hidden gem great people, beautiful environment and traditional cuban coffee service.
Great coffee, delicious and hearty breakfast sandwiches. One of my new favorite spots close to work,
Love this place I go every morning
Most adorable spot, best coffees, excellent service! Quiet- sweet!
This is a nice coffee shop. The cold brew is strong and flavorful. The only problem is there are not many outlets to charge your devices if you plan to work. Also I wish they offered oat milk.
Coffee was delicious as well as the quiche and guava pastry! Hospitality and service went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. Special thanks to Stephanie for making our visit so special :)
High ceiling, exposed ventilation, clean & modern looking with a stay & drink your coffee feel. Better atmosphere than traditional chain coffee places. I enjoyed my visit as well as my coffee with honey only.The employees and or owners were very cool too.Give it a try.
Ive been here a couple of times - coffee is always superb, the pastries are scrumptious, and the staff are very friendly. However, I had to wait in line quite a bit to order and there was also a considerable wait to receive my order since there were only two staff members working.
Awesome little coffee shop in palmetto beach.
I like the taste of their coffee. The ambiance was also great, very comfy. I would definitely come again, and I recommend it to everyone. Thank you so much for your good heart in serving customers.
Friendly staff. Small coffee tasted good and it was a large portion. Toilets were clean.
So yummy. Perfect breakfast coffee date. Staff is super friendly, vibes are great, food is off the charts, coffees delicious. What’s not to like.
This place was great! Their wonderful magic makers created a perfect coffee from my description of what i wanted and the resulting cup warmed my soul. I loved it so much i had to share it and it got approval from my coworkes even! The pressed cuban made me moan and when I shared it one of them was almost brought to tears by its perfection! Not too hard, just enough crunch to the crust, melt in your mouth inner. If i could rate it higher i would will be going back and bringing more people with me!
Staff is nice, food taste and portions are great! Me and my boyfriend both got a croissant breakfast sandwich and we could have split it, it’s so huge. And the coffee is excellent:)
Great coffee more expensive than dunkin but way better
Delicious frozen cafe con leche and dirty chai. The cinnamon toast is also wonderful! A new favorite
Cafe con leches were so good🥰
Tried their frozen cafe con leche and think I may have found my next caffeine addiction.
Very good coffee and food. Make sure to come and support local businesses. The people are very friendly and the shop itself is very clean, new, and comfortable. Enter on the 20th street entrance, because the parking lot is not accessible from 22nd street. First time here, awesome shop, and I will be back.
If you want coffee, get it from here if you’re close. That’s it, super friendly staff and great prices for very good coffee...just do it.
The Coffee is Divine!Now that we got the main buisness taken care of, lets talk about the experience.22nd street pulls its flavor from the local community. The drinks, the food, it all flows from the surrounding neighborhood and style, blended smoothly into the coffee carefully selected from around the world.Denise (the owner), she knows her stuff and loves her brew. I tried to pay for an officers coffee behind me (no gloat, but we gotta take care of our law enforcement) and I was denied, Denise said, NO NEED, she had it covered. She is good people and this coffee shop is the tops.My wife and sister, my little dog too, enjoyed our coffee on the patio. They supplied the option of a raw egg or cheese for my pup. The whip creme is caffinated so good snacks were had by all. We loved the food too! You have to go there yourself, quiche is great, and the sweet snacks were 10/10 yum!Easy to access from the highway or neighborhood. The interior and design are to be obsessed over. Do not judge at first glance, this place is clean, friendly, lovely and refreshing.Will be back if I ever break down in Florida again or if I am happen to be close by I will make the stop. As an out of towner, this shop captured me as a lifelong customer.
Denise and her staff are fantastic and the coffee is as fresh as it comes. Great Food and Great Prices make this a fantastic place to visit. I go there 2 or 3 times a week. Highly recommend.
Delicious cold brew, hot coffee, and breakfast sandwiches!
We love local Roasters and Coffee Shops.This is our newest and now local favorite.Great customer service.Very good cappuccinos and lattes. Their espresso is very smooth.They sell whole beans as well as ground coffees and espresso.The decor inside is absolutely perfect. A lot of thought went into the decor of this shop and we love it!We will be back.
Well not excellent.
Great place for coffee ❤👌
Nice place to get some boost)
Extremely short staffed & not enough equipment to handle big orders. I had to wait for a guy to do 10 sandwiches for a big order before mine and Ive been standing here (grey long sleeve shirt & jeans, check your cameras) for over 30 minutes. My sandwich hasnt even begin to be made yet. Now Im running late. Get the right amount of equipment to handle large orders. Its 9:44am and this shouldnt be happening.
Nice place to go with friends to get coffee etc...
I always love coming back here!! Not just the coffee it brings back the memory we have to my boyfriend here. LOVELOTS GUYYS!!
I have only been here a handful of times. 1 time they had no product yet to make cuban sandwiches. truck did not arrive. 2nd time asked for pressed cuban and expected a warm cuban w melted cheese and got a cold barely pressed cuban, then next time she dropped my sandwich on the floor had to wait 10 more minutes for a new sandwich now i look at the times open for christmas eve and it says 7-2 hours may differ. they were closed. if your gonna b closed then put closed. dont let me waste my time driving over there from brandon to pick up stocking stuffers to b let down cuz you cant change your hours. if you want small biz support then you got to be a well oiled machine compared to the big boys. not going back to b dissappointed again. your averages of me going and having a pleasant experience is a 1 out of 5.
Great place. Its a great atmosphere. Quiet and clean. The coffee was probably the best cup Ive had in a while. Friendly staff and very welcoming.
We were in Tampa for a short trip and this was our daily stop for coffee. Their standard drip coffee is the best I have had in awhile. We also got the ham, egg and cheese sandwiches on their flatbread which were made right in front of us and were super filling, delicious and affordable! Such a great stop - friendly staff, a great space, and good food and drinks. Highly recommend!
Amazing service ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Super friendly environment, its a great place to study (specially on Mondays) they have super cute merchandise. The shop is super clean, and oh goodness the coffee is STONG even for a Cuban! Ps:Please dont forget to try their espresso wiped cream-is a must!
Service was prompt and friendly. The seating looked very comfortable and I thought it would be a nice spot to sit after work and watch the world go by.
Michael and Ally(ie?) are the BEST baristas ever! I just moved here and they made me feel so welcome. Not to mention made me the *perfect* coffee and breakfast. The honey butter toast on Cuban bread made me rethink my whole existence hahaha
By far the best locally owned coffee shop in Tampa! The ladies that run the shop go above and beyond to greet everyone with a smile and make sure their visit is amazing. The coffee and food is delicious too! Love this place and the people! 22nd Street Coffee is must if you are in the Tampa/Ybor area!
Beautiful place. Wished they had different meat selections for the sandwiches other than ham. However, its a beautiful cozy place and not too loud. Also, very affordable!
Great clean place, had my coffee beans grind it up for me.,
Love the coffee. Love the breakfast sandwiches. Staff is super friendly. I highly recommend this shop for your coffee fix!
Friendly staff, casual environment, good coffee.
Excellent breakfast Cuban and tasty Cafe con Leche, definitely worth a visit to this hidden gem!
BEST COFFEE IN TAMPA!! Food menu is limited but the only thing you need with this coffee is Cuban bread.
Amazing coffee! This was my first visit. Best coffee I have had in years. Great job! I will definitely be back often :)
Great Coffee, friendly staff, convenient location and I love to support local Businesses
Real great coffee, pastries and atmosphere. Best of all was the staff; very friendly and eager to help. They seemed happy to work there. The best café con leche I’ve had which is saying a lot.
This is the best coffee shop in Tampa by far! The staff is great, treat you like family and the coffee is amazing!
This is a wonderful spot. Tucked away with ample parking, this is a great spot to get your caffeination on. I stopped in to help celebrate National coffee day and it was amazing. The coffee is fantastic. Robust and strong. There is lots of seating inside and a couple tables outside.The staff were friendly and helpful. They roast onsite, so you can even take their coffee home.I cant wait to visit again.
Wonderful
Really beautiful space, you can tell a lot of thought went into it. Had an iced Americano and they do it right with 3 shots in the 16 oz size so you dont have to worry about it getting watery. Espresso was a nice strong roast without being bitter or burnt. Staff was really friendly and competent. Looking forward to going back on my lunch break from work to try out some of the light bites.
Try the latte - you wont be disappointed! Lovely coffee spot with great atmosphere & a lively staff.
Fantastic! We had a good cup of cafe con leche, and some toasted cuban bread with cheese. It was nice and cool inside, but there are outside tables. They are very dog friendly. Overall a nice relaxing place.
Recently visited there and had a great experience. Great tasting coffee, service and gluten-free donuts. Can’t ask for much more out of a place.
Best breakfast sandwiches and coffee con leche. Awesome service! Prices reasonable. Will definitely be back
Very friendly environment. Good coffee.
This outstanding for meals are just what hungry people want., plus the service if fine.
Excellent coffee without the insane prices. Love this place
Awesome Cuban sandwich and of course the coffee is delicious
Great atmosphere and ambiance, awesome attitudes, and delightfully good coffee. I highly recommend this place.
Excellent! Great food and drinks and so unique.
Outstanding coffee and pastries. Love the Cinnamon Cuban Toast..
22nd Street Coffee is now OPEN!!! This place is BEAUTIFUL! There is a large indoor seating area (outdoor tables too), two dominoes tables, a gorgeous mural, Brisk products retail area, and a huge coffee counter. The food selections include pastries, Cuban toast options, sweets, stuffed potatoes, deviled crab, and more.Monday - Friday: 6am - 2pmSaturday: 7am - 2pm
Amazing coffee, incredible food!!! Such a great atmosphere too!
Best coffee in Tampa Bay area!
Luke and Staff are amazing locally owned and operated and by far worth the stop in for a cup of Joe
Super friendly baristas, good coffee. I got the ham egg and cheese on toasted Cuban bread. Unfortunately, toasted and pressed have different meanings to me, and this sandwich was pressed, so I didnt enjoy the texture. The eggs were also browned (so overcooked, in my opinion) and the sandwich wasnt consistently cut or dressed, as the sandwich halves didnt line up (I was sharing with my mom) and one half didnt really have any cheese on it.Id come back because it was a good meeting location for me and my mom, as one of us is near Brandon and the other in South Tampa. We went to IKEA after, which was great. The coffee was good and their coconut mocha is far better than Starbucks. However, they didnt have a for here option on the drinks, and we got them in paper cups. I prefer a mug if Im hanging out at a coffee shop, so hopefully the owners might consider that option. Its just more welcoming and makes me want to stay.Last note: the cappuccino comes with bubbly foam instead of tight-foamed latte art a lot of places do. Personally, the fancy art is a bonus to me, but I do prefer the mouthfeel of the compact foam to the foam with big bubbles they do here. I might try asking for no foam next time.
Food and coffee were amazing. The store is also very beautiful
Good food and coffee. The staff was nice and very helpful.
Great coffee and yummy cuban toast.
