Buddy Brew Coffee

⸻

I ordered a hot latte to go with oat milk and mocha creamer, and honestly it was one of the worst coffee experiences I’ve had. It looked and tasted like cheap drip coffee: no foam at all, way too hot, sour and bitter. On top of that, they overfilled the cup so much that I almost spilled it on myself. Definitely not worth it, very disappointing! This is my first LATE that looks like a cheap 3 in 1 coffee powder!
I’ve tried Latte at Buddy Brew Coffee at other location and it was so delicious that’s why came back.. ruined my mood for the whole day (

3 stars total due to the bathrooms be consistently out of order. Coffee quality is 5 stars, Cailyn is about 10 stars (amazingly kind and personable), bathrooms are below 0 stars. So total average about 3ish stars. But hey, the coffee is great and if Cailyn is there you will leave happier than when you arrived (unless you have to pee, then you won't be happy)

cute spot but a $12+ turkey sandwich with only 2 very thin slices of turkey is a bit silly

Love this place

The coffee is good, and I used to come here often to support a local spot and I like a atmosphere in here. However, the staff are generally rude and impatient (except for the manager, who is kind). Yesterday morning I paid $16 for the sandwich in the photo, which was very disappointing. Sadly, I won’t be coming back.

HORRIBLE PARKING. They lose so much business because there's like two parking spaces and the lot next to it is always full.

Fantastic place to meet a friend for coffee or pop up a laptop a work. Decent amount of seating with window bar seating.

I was in Tampa downtown looking for coffee and found Buddy Brew Coffee nearby. The cafe was just a 10-minute drive, but parking in front was a bit tight with limited spaces available.

As I stepped inside, I loved the cool, charming ambiance filled with people enjoying their coffee and conversations. I ordered an Iced Latte, and it was ready quickly.

The coffee was excellent, freshly brewed with quality beans and perfect for the hot weather.

The coffee was very tasty, the atmosphere was calm, and the service was quick. The barista, Addy, was very sweet and respectful. I would definitely come back.

Always love to share a moment of integrity. My server this morning made the easy mistake of forgetting to add an extra shot of espresso to my drink which I never would have known to be honest. Rather than avoiding it, he came over to me and gave me the extra shot and apologized. I just thought that was cool and I think a lot of people would not have made it a point to be so forthright. I will definitely be coming back just because of this level of service and integrity.

Tampa’s go-to coffee shop! This Buddy Brew location is one of my favorites from many in Tampa. Great space to get some quiet work done on your laptop. Good coffee, great local company. Definitely recommend!
