Brewed Awakenings
1715 N Howard Ave, Tampa, FL
Crema's Take
“Tucked in Tampa's Warehouse Arts District, Brewed Awakenings is the passionate project of Chris, a cold brew obsessive who's earned a devoted following through years as a pop-up vendor—his Cuban cold brew and inventive creations like lemonade coffee and banana bread syrup-infused drinks showcase meticulous attention to flavor that evolves with every sip. Beyond exceptional coffee, this intimate venue doubles as a gathering space with live music and dance classes, creating an experience that feels more like discovering a creative community hub than grabbing a quick caffeine fix.”

One of the most unique coffee experiences I've ever had. Brewed Awakenings isn't just another coffee shop. The owner, Chris, is a true Cold Brew Alchemist, obsessing over every detail. Highly recommend the Cinnamon Banana Bread Cold Brew. You can taste the passion in every sip. Very chill spot with an eclectic vibe. If you're a coffee lover, this place is a must-visit.
Chris runs a super unique craft coffee bar featuring Cuban cold brew. I've followed him as a pop up vendor for 3 years and so stoked to have him join us in the Warehouse Arts District! Best coffee in town & a vibe that you need to see to get!
I called in during the day and it was pretty quiet, but lucky me because what a great venue, I will definitely be back to experience the evening atmosphere and live music, they also do dance classes I believe too! The staff were super friendly and the owner of the coffee space Chris had such incredible knowledge of his craft and was passionate in sharing how he his knowledge and explaining all the different and incredible elements of his drinks menu. The coffee space isn’t open 7 days a week so worth checking out their schedule first!
Literally TO DIE FOR beverages. The owner is super sweet and passionate about his creations. He let me try his lemonade coffee. And I will say I have never had anything more refreshing! I can't wait to go back for another visit! Ok went back for a second visit. Drove from out of state because it's just that good. I like his crafts because I am sensitive to caffeine but his blends are created with the right amount of coffee so that even the people like me can enjoy a cup without getting the jitters.
Smooth, incredibly delicious, and even thoughtful garnishes that slowly infuse and change the flavor over time. The banana bread syrup is out of this world (infused with actual baked banana bread!). Chris really does a phenomenal job of taking coffee to the next level. This is my happy place.
