Buddy Brew coffee beans have been available at Tampa Bay grocery stores for a while, but fans can soon get a freshly made cup of joe while they shop.

The Tampa-based coffee company announced a partnership last week with Sprouts, including new cafes at its grocery stores in Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco County, and Sarasota counties. They’ll be the first Buddy Brews in Pinellas and Pasco, and more than double its cafe count.

In-store cafe menus will include handcrafted espresso drinks, cold brew, specialty beverages and food, per the press release. Specific store locations and opening dates have yet to be announced.

Pitch in to help make the Tampa Bay Journalism Project a success.
