Buddy Brew Coffee is crossing the bay for the first time, opening a cafe Friday inside the Sprouts Farmers Market in Seminole.<\/p>\n
The cafe, at 7263 Seminole Blvd., will be the Tampa-based coffee company\u2019s first Pinellas County location. It is also the fourth of 10 Buddy Brew cafes planned for Sprouts stores across the Tampa Bay area this summer.<\/p>\n

\u201cOpening our first caf\u00e9 in Pinellas County is an exciting milestone for Buddy Brew,\u201d CEO Dave Ward says in a release. \u201cTampa Bay has been our home since the beginning, and we\u2019ve wanted to bring Buddy Brew across the bay for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n
The grand-opening celebration will include $3 summer specialty drinks, a live DJ, giveaways and photo opportunities. The first 25 customers in line will receive gift bags containing Buddy Brew merchandise, gift cards and other items. One customer will win free coffee for a year.<\/p>\n
The Seminole cafe will offer the company\u2019s full menu, including espresso drinks, cold brew, matcha, smoothies, pastries, seasonal beverages and breakfast and lunch items.<\/p>\n
